How can i persuade my boss to buy new transits?

Postby stevo » Sat Jul 15, 2006 3:58 pm

My boss is pretty tight, at the moment he's buying Fiat Scudo's (yuk) and they are shit to say the least.
He's told me Transits are too big, we are an aerial/satalite/tv/electronics company, i dont think they are.

Ive ordered a new tranny brochure off ford, gonna leave it on his desk.

Any other suggestions?

Hahahaha i like that. To be honest i dont think he even drives em before he buys em. Case in point, hes bought Nissan Vannettes, Peugeot Parnters, a Toyota Hiace (ugh!) and now Fiats.

If youve ever driven one of those Nissans you'll know what i mean, they are shit.
