Hello together, I am currently in the process of “building” my new professional future. After an education and practical activity as an educator, currently visiting a vocational college for the acquisition of the FH-tire, I would like to apply for a new (so with second) training as an automobile salesman, also with Volvo. I am looking for a training place in the greater Stuttgart area, about 50km radius. I already have the larger well-known companies on the list, my question would be now, if someone knows even smaller companies that offer or have advertised the training for next year. Would be great if someone had come to listen in this direction… Thank you! Greetings Andrej

Hi. I came to the idea through the thread with the workshop recommendation around münchen, that with united forces you could collect all the workshops, where really good service is offered. you could then sort them by countries, federal states etc. to countries, because here are also many people from Switzerland. what do you think about it? I would then keep a list. mfg, sergej

If you look around on German roads like this, if you look at the used car offers and the dealer’s stops, then you could get the impression that the Germans are a people of funeral entrepreneurs: dark colors as far as the eye can see (especially bad: Mördi-R and the big Audis). Sometimes a lighter sprinkler, sometimes even tasteless bright yellow “tuned” mini cars – otherwise: My opinion is pure Ödnis. During my search for a cheap ride I have asked several dealers why they would have this hearse fleet on the square. The answer was ALWAYS: Because the customers want that. I don’t believe that. I think that most used vehicles come from the huge rental and leasing fleet and the first-time buyers follow the mistaken assumption that only dark vehicles could be sold on the market because there are so many dark vehicles sold: a self-referential perfied system to break through only then succeeds, if the buyers would finally leave the dark ones standing. I admit: I myself gave in to the eroticism of the low price despite the color (saphir black). I even think about having the car foiled. Long preface short meaning and purpose of this thread: Which color does your vehicle have and which one would you really like (no matter which brand!), or should I be wrong with my assumption about dark colors – then convince me! I h abe Saphirschwarz-Metallic and would have pleased me about Seashell-Metallic.

Driving a car is fun. Food is also fun. Food in the car is the most fun! That’s why I have this increased affinity for drive-in switches, especially in my favorite fast food restaurant McDoof The pleasure of this self-service version of eating on wheels, however, is greatly reduced by the quality of the intercom system. Intercom? I am convinced that she got this name because it is completely designed against speaking. “Bechelun hip here. From experience, however, I know that the voice (male? female?… probably rather male!?) at the other end of this can phone just inquired about my order. Order now would be too boring for me. Therefore, I ask a question first: “Do you have something of the chicken?” From the speaker sounds a hard-to-understand word, but it clearly ends with “…icken”. I answer : “Maybe later, at first I want something to eat.” A little louder it sounds back: “GET!” I can’t wait to say: “No, I’d like to pick it up myself.” A short break arises, I imagine the annoying face of the McKnecht. As the speaking break threatens to become too long I say: “Oh, you my chicken! No, I don’t. Do you have a press cow with tomato tusk in roast rolls?” “Hamburger?” asks my invisible counterpart back. I reply accordingly: “No, I’m from here. But does that have an influence on my order?” “Wol-len Sie ein-en H-a-m-b-u-r-e-r?” “Now calm down! Yes, I’ll take one.” “Shit?” “I was right after my last meal here. Meanwhile, however, my intestinal flora is well again, I think I can risk it again.” The voting owner starts to feel a little sorry for me. He can’t do anything for the job. But I don’t … “Whether you’re a cheese a uf the hamburger would like!?” “Ahja, gladly. I take a medium-old Pyrenees mountain cheese, not too thickly cut, slightly melted from one side.” Whether the next announcement from the speaker is “Sure but” or “A…loch”, I cannot exactly hear out. However, more clearly it sounds: “What about it?” “Yes, yes. I would like to have these salted fried potato sticks.” “So fries?” “From me also those.” “Great, medium, small?” “Mixed. And exactly to one of them.” I understand this question, again very loudly formulated, clearly. It demands an honest answer: “If this is the condition to get something to eat here: Yes. So: shall we continue?” The voice snatches briefly and asks: “Good, good. Something to the fries?” “A nice entrecôte, bloody, and a glass of 1996 Pinot Noir, please.” “I COMM TO GET YOUR GLEICH AND BETWEEN YOU!” “Do you want to do this?” “Would you like to do this?” , but please don’t spill the wine.” “Close now, switch two, four euros fifteen!” Already over. Just when it starts to be funny. But I still have an as in my sleeve. I pay with a 200-euro note. “Sorry, but I don’t have it bigger.” PIEP! … Friendly I get countered: “No problem.” With a cold look a well-protected gentleman lets my change on the steel counters clap. Not with me, friend! I want the triumph! So time for the fin! ale: “Can I please get a receipt?”, I ask overfriendly. “Is a business dinner.” Have fun trying out! Michael

Hello Elchian, my black elk is just in the inspection of the “friendly”. Also today the parking aid is retrofitted. I was just tired of always avoiding narrow parking spaces, and from now on face the challenge. At the recording check was said that my air conditioning would no longer have the “full” performance, and it would therefore be advisable to refill the air conditioning. I have not yet found that my air conditioning system has somehow too little performance. He said It may just be that the climate is now shutting down in the summer when there is too little coolant in it. Anyway, I didn’t give the order to fill the climate. First of all, I certainly get this from a Bosch service profitier (my friend anyway has pharmacy prices) and secondly, I didn’t find anything bad anyway. Besides, my C70 is only 2 1/2 years old. My question(s): How expensive is it to fill a climate, you can do that with other would you just work on the statement of the master or wait until you really feel the cooling performance deteriorating? Have always somehow the impression my Volvo dealer tried to get his missing sales figures back in through the workshop.

Today, I happen to have stumbled on the following article in the new star No. 48: Schwedenhappen /Page 286: Quotation ein ” Does the primary school teacher with double names and half a position, who so far liked to store her purchases from the organic store in the Volvokombi, remain true to the brand? Uncertain…..” Quotation from and in another place as the conclusion of the report on the new V40 quote ” Volvo is like the ZDF. Biographies make up a considerable part of the regular customer base. “Citation from LOOOOL Mr. Hans- Robert Richarz, and I think they are at an age when the glasses become necessary. Or am I wrong??? I’m curious how many of the animals here have double-named women who are shopping and teaching in the organic shop …. out here!
