Gorse Fox will probably change his car this year, and the search for its replacement has begun. It is frustrating, however, that he does not have a wider choice of vehicles.
The Gorse Fox, you see, likes to drive a car with automatic transmission. The mileage that he has to do each week, however, dictates a diesel. So where the Gorse Fox may like to choose from Toyota, Honda, Ford, VW and Audi, he finds that Toyota still don't recognise a market for diesel automatics, Honda don't make them either, Ford are unlikely to have the diesel autos available on the new Mondeos until 6-12 months after launch (based on past experience), leaving the Gorse Fox back with VW or Audi.
One salesman asked whether GF had looked at the Mercedes. GF said he had but was disappointed with the build and the shape of the seats (a priority in the selection process). "What about the BMW?" he asked.
The Gorse Fox stepped back. He fixed him with a withering stare. "Exactly what sort of person do you think I am?" he hissed. The salesman sobbed out an apology, and crawled away mewling quietly to himself.
