[Rich]

For Me:
Name: Richard Roope
Age: 20
Sex: Male
Location: Torquay, Devon
Method of purchase of vehicle: FIAT Franchised Dealer
Reason/s for choosing that method: They had the car I wanted and gave me a fantastic P/Ex on my Brava. Plus I like having a FIAT warranty which my local dealer always seem to get good results from
Would you choose that method again: Yes

For Mummy :
Name: Christine Roope
Age: 56
Sex: Female
Location: Torquay, Devon
Method of purchase of vehicle: Dealer
Reason/s for choosing that method: Good price on the car and a good P/Ex value. Was the best Stilo deal we could find . Vehicle was still under FIAT manufacturer warranty so the Network-Q warranty was pointless.
Would you choose that method again: Yes

For My Bro:
Name: Ian Roope
Age: 39 (Today )
Sex: Male
Location: Tiverton, Devon
Method of purchase of vehicle: FIAT Franchised Dealer
Reason/s for choosing that method: Would only buy a car from it's franchised dealer as all of my vehicles are bought new / ex-demo.
Would you choose that method again: Yes

For My Sis:
Name: Emma Roope
Age: 22
Sex: Female
Location: Torquay, Devon
Method of purchase of vehicle: Independent Used Dealer
Reason/s for choosing that method: Specialised in used fiats and the vehicle was well priced, had a low mileage and was the best vehicle in my price range. Warranty offered was decent too and they did a full service + cambelt and gave 6 months tax in the price (eventually )
Would you choose that method again: Yes
