Re: ppsl

hi,

I recently bought a 4 years old 320i from PPSL.

From my personal experience, the process was satisfying & pleasant.

The sales lady that attended to me is Dawn.

PPSL gives 1 yr warranty and they touched up the interior nicely.

My ride on display then had some wear & tear on the interior panels, she showed me all the areas that needed touch up and have them fixed or replaced on delivery.

Brake pad, engine oil & filter were changed.

The reason I went to PPSL is to have the peace of mind as the car history is recorded with PML.

At least I know the mileage is not being tweaked.

Happy hunting.

Re: ppsl

I have the same positive experience too when I bought my Z4 and 320i.

The Sales Rep was Ronald.

Price is not their best part though

Re: ppsl

they definitely command a premium on their rides, but u can be sured it has been true their 70 point check or something, giving u peace of mind and warranty. best part is the entire purchase, settlement with bank and transfer process of ur used car takes 2 to 3 days only. they pride themselves on that.

Re: ppsl

There was a reason why I paid a premium to buy from PPSL. That is the peace of mind for a 2nd hand car.

My experience was very positive. It was so good that even my colleague who wasn't looking to change his car also bought 1 from my sales rep.

Re: ppsl

Like what the other guys mention, the price is slightly higher, but you got a peace of mind because of the warranty.

Re: ppsl

looks like PPSL had a better customer satisfaction rate than those serving at PML.

is can't be true right?

Re: ppsl

There's a diff in customer service between PPSL and PML. When a customer walks into the PML showroom, most SE bo chap, but when you walk into the PPSL showroom, all SEs swamp towards you.

Re: ppsl

Different customers prefer different ways of being served. Personally, I prefer SE to leave me alone (PML's way) but there are other customers who like full attention and be served like a king, it all depends on individual :woottt:

Re: ppsl

I second that. I prefer to browse on my own without any sales attention until I am ready to buy.

Re: ppsl

IMHO, PPSL is definitely a good place to buy a used beemer for the peace of mind if you're willing to pay the premium. I did shop around in the market for comparison before buying from PPSL; lower mileage and price for equivalent model but condition wasn't as good. The additional 12 months warranty will pay off too.

Ronald is really top notch in customer service and will assist in after sales service within his means per my experience. Marcus is also a great guy to work with for loans and insurance renewals. I actually got a lower insurance premium from PPSL. Kudos to the PPSL team. Free ad for them? Well, i personally think they deserve it & to each his/her own.

Re: ppsl

I bought my Z4M from Dawn and she is awesome. Took care of every small little detail, and even if something was wrong with my car, they went through everything to ensure that i was kept happy.

PPSL buying experience was a very good one for me. Just my 2 cents.

Re: ppsl

Re: ppsl

Ya.. the chaps from PPSL is really friendly... But I feel might be a little overwhelming at time. IMHO.

I checked with this SE from PML, asking why is their attitude so bo chup when we walk into their showroom? The reply from the SE is that, they were given specific instructions by the management not to approach the customers, until being asked upon.

Thought we should give them the explanation they due deserve...

Re: ppsl

I got my E46 from PPSL too... sales guy was Ronald.

I actually didn't pay a premium as they slashed the price by $10k cos some 'newer' cars were coming in. Peace of mind is there for sure.

Re: ppsl

Oh , seems like every one here has good comments about them, i should go down and take a look, never thought of going thee before cos their price is always slightly higher than market rate. does every car they sell come with a 1 year warranty? Can any bro advice?

 

[achee]

Re: ppsl

From what I know, all PPSL cars come with extended warranty of one year, especially useful for cars which their original warranties have expired. In addition, PPSL will do a 72-point check to ensure the cars are in good working condition.

Re: ppsl

Slater: According to the SE, it's an instruction from their senior management... Those in Alexandra, they are suppose to gather at that corner and ROC (Relax One Corner) until being approached by customers. Maybe that explains why those at Alexandra always seems to congregate and ROC...

Maybe the SEs got to take queue number to serve customers? hahaha...

"No 5 SE, the next customer, ur turn to serve liao.... "
