HI, our 159 comes out of lease in October, so I will soon be thinking about a replacement. Has anyone had any dealing with Kings Cars in Ballarat, and willing to make any comments? I am disappointed with where we purchased the 159 from and don't really want to buy my next car there.

hi there i have dealt with them in the service department which can be good and bad the first time was great and there price was really good $600 for a cambelt change ect but then a different time was not so good it took alot of aguing to get a result i was happy with being i know enough about these car to get me in alot of trouble but also enough that i know what i am talking about, if possible when you talk to them ask for michael i know he has gone to there ararat store but he does come back from time to time. there sales team seemed to be ok and i had no prob getting there mi-to to drive around in for the day, but as for product knowledge they are a new dealership and im not sure how much they have, but i hope they have gotten better

The club will be looking at expanding its membership base & sponsorship in rural areas so interesting query Joe. 

The Goldfields Region seems to have a growing membership base.

I took my alfa there for the first year last year, just for a basic service. They were all OK, but when i took my alfa into them it had a yellow light come on for the lights, When i got my alfa back after the service the light was still on. The problem was a blown number plate globe, (easy fix and easy thing to miss.) But it makes you think what were they thinking when they had seen the light on the dash?
Did they look? But they were great to talk to and friendly, they gave me a lift back to city everything was OK apart from the minor mishap.

Thanks
Dale
