When I bought my VW Eos the dealer was great - arrival delayed by a week which meant my Focus ST's tax would have run out so they stored that for me and gave me a courtesy car until the Eos arrived, plus they then taxed the new one for just over 12 months to avoid giving me effectively 11 months. It's that little extra that gives some dealers the edge, it's not all about the bottom line.
