Suzuki Club UK

I really want a cliffords trade card.... whenever I go in there I always end up with more than I bargained for!
They had multiple sets of SJ brake shoes and pads on the shelf today which was quite handy!

do they do then once? i got speaking to the governor/Paul down there and he said they didnt do one? im not complaining as i normally get it for book price anyway

Nahhh the probably dont do it! To be honest though, Halfrauds with a trade card is about the same price as cliffords anyway!!!

Yeah they can be pricey at times cliffords but to be honest I rather give my money to cliffords then halfords

At least when you go in there they know what they are talking about, at halfrauds if the computer doesn't know the guy behind the desk sure as hell doesn't!!!

There's a reason for that I found from working there. The computer and/or catalogue tells the user when part fits what car but not every car is listed and not all of those that are listed are thoroughly listed, nor are all available parts stocked.

The other daft thing is the packaging of the stuff they stock doesn't say what it fits either.

The system they've got is good for common cars like a Fiesta or a Golf but the more obscure the car the worse the system is in all aspects.

Granted also not everyone that works in Halfords is a car buff either but the blame isn't solely theirs.

Shame i dnt fit the criteara for a trade card but m8 r8s from suzuki so cant complain lol had to chukkl in halfords today took 4 members of staff to fit a headlamp bulb in a ford cmax and one was just stood there with a tin of silver wheel paint holding it to the car trying to convince the car owner it wad the same col and it didnt matter that it was wheel paint becos they didnt stock ford silver ... if it doesnt make sence sorry am dislexic

Haha Ed,

They should get a better catalogue then
Although saying that the Suzuki Electronic Parts Catalogue can't be brilliant!
I went into my local Suzuki recently to order and handbrake cable... the garage have been a Suzuki place for ages, but the garage keeps getting sold and new people brought in.
When I went there the bloke behind the desk was complaining about the EPC while finding my parts, so I ended up chatting with him about how rubbish it is.
It ended up with "So, how do you have the parts catalogue? Do you work for Suzuki too?"
Hahaha

The thing is, it's not a Suzuki parts catalogue, it's a Halfords own one that I suspect was put together from Wikipedia and a dozen EPCs by someone who doesn't know anything about cars.

The little flip catalogues they have on the shelves are better than the Halfords EPC.
