Which VW dealership would u recommend?
 
did a search and couldn't find anything on VW dealerships. anybody bought a car from a vw dealership that u would recommend? any particular sales i should go to, to get the best deals? thanks!

Not Capilano, they don't give deals and I didn't like the salesman.

skylinergtr 05-09-2010 11:20 PM

I would have to guess Cowell VW in richmond, but not speaking from experience. Why a VW?

godwin 05-09-2010 11:22 PM

Ask here http://dubberz.com/ (though they are sponsored by Regency)

whatever happens avoid maple ridge volkswagen, they charge you 200dollars for simple oilchanges and horrible customer service

thumper 05-10-2010 11:31 AM

no to cowell. i've written about it before and i won't post it again. maybe try clarkdale, but i only know the service department and not sales... westminster vw is now regency but the salesperson i bought from there (haulin oats on RS) left after the dealership was sold so i don't know what's going on over there anymore :(

westminster is the best one for deals
leo is the guy to talk to
bought couple vws and got almost cost on the first one cuz it was the last one of the model year
then when i traded it in for a gli after owning it for a year
they gave me full price what i paid a year earlier for trade in
though i had to pay retail for the gli but still a killer deal nonetheless

thanks for the replies! so its either clarkdale or new west. hm the website doesn't list any vw dealerships in new west, did they move locations?

anybody with experience with clarkdale? thats the closest to me.

As I have said go to dubberz.com. that's where most local dubberz hangs out and you can find plenty of info on the dealerships.

I know the sales manager at the main street branch. Last time my customer wanted a TDI jetta, she went to richmond got a discounted quote, then i refered her to Main st. and she got a better price.
If you need help just shoot me a pm

I bought my car at Cowell in November and had a good experience

maxx 05-10-2010 08:20 PM

Edison_Chen 05-10-2010 09:39 PM

Cowell is pretty good as well.. We do insurance for Cowell's customers

maxx 05-10-2010 09:40 PM

Westminster changed to Regency.

+1

leo is a great guy, my gf and i traded in a car for a gti, we wanted a 5 door, but since the last one is gone, we ended up with a choice of a 2 door, so in the end he got me a sport package and monster mat...real great guy

and as a matter of fact, he and his buddy also own a shop that could get u winter tires at a cheap price as well~

as for the dealership itself, service is good with reasonable price....just 1 thing tho, avoid the other asian sales in there

Clarkdale and Westminster (i think haulin oates still works there)

These two. Got mine at Clarkdale, they were very good about everything and took some money off the very hot GTI Mk6 in November, even.

For Westminster/Regency, ask for Steve in Finance (that's Haulin Oats).

He posted this a while ago on dubberz.com.

Went to Cowell years ago like back in 06.

Was looking at a Jetta, and kept asking for help.. and nobody helped. We were ready to buy the damn car but they failed.

Ended up getting a 06 Civic 4dr EX for less than whatever the fuck they listed the mid-range Jettaor whatever they did for at Cowell.

I basically did all the work. I personally sold the family on the car.. and all that we were looking for was some help with specifics and stuff. Got ZERO help. It was the same story at the one on Main St.
