Retaina Group, worth it?

Got a letter through the post telling me my car is etched with a code on the main windows and for £20 I can transfer the registration to my details, is it worth it?

I have some magic beans you can buy for £10, thus saving yourself £10.

Deal?

You can't just claim that they are "magic" beans, what magic do they do?

Send me a picture of said beans and some hovis and we'll talk!

Thought as much, the letter they sent me had the registration number and code on it so I'll keep them safe on the off chance I need it!

usually they just etch the vin number on. Autoglass used to do it for free, probably still do.

It's already etched from new, just as the second owner there's a £20 quid admin fee to switch registered owner details. Original owner is my uncle anyway so if they contacted him he'd give me a shout!

I wouldn't bother, I sold new Fiats and told the customer to bin it!

For 3 quid i will put you on my data base, and give you a free banana.

We've been getting those letters since buying the Punto. I feed them to Mr Cross-Cut.

Quit trying to steal my magic bean customers!

You mean there's more to come? Oh, goody.

We have had either two or three since October.

I get them too since I bought the Grande, thought about it for a while, then binned it.

Peerzy · 8 Feb 2011 at 23:00

I got this for my Bravo, filed it under 'Bin'.
