Doing it Wrong [#2]

[T0M722]

I cried a little :cry: There has to be more to this story than meets the eye. A man from Qingdao vowed to destroy his Lamborghini on World Consumer Rights day to show Lamborghini that their exceptional reputation did not extend to China and to show them that he was outraged at their services and effort.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A Lamborghini owner in Qingdao announced that he would smash his Lamborghini car that was bought no more than six months ago in front of Qingdao 1919 International Building Material and Lamp Mall at 3:15pm on March 15 out of dissatisfaction with Lamborghini’s services.

According to the owners announcement that he posted onto the internet, decides to smash the sports car on the World Consumer Rights Day to vent his strong dissatisfaction with and disappointment at Lamborghini’s differentiated services in China and Europe, and its downgraded standard for service providers.

The engine of the newly-bought sports car failed to start on November 29, 2010. After they had contacted Lamborghini’s Qingdao dealer, the car was carried to the designated maintenance shop by a trailer of a maintenance service provider entrusted by Lamborghini’s Qingdao dealer. The engine problem was not fixed, and the bumper and chassis were found damaged after the car was towed to the maintenance shop. As they pointed out the problem, the maintenance service provider shirked the responsibility and ignoring the owners consumer right. After that, they contacted Lamborghini’s CEO Mr. Stephan Winkelmann, the brand’s China headquarters, its after-sales service manager for Asia-Pacific region, and the brand’s owner Volkswagen Group, but the problem was not solved. The owner believes that there is no suitable means to protect his own consumer rights, so he felt that the best way to gain attention would be to destroy the

According to the former Lambo owner, Chinese consumers are more and more capable of consuming global luxury products in recent years, however, the global luxury brands work on exploring Chinese market on one hand, and ignore the interests and rights of Chinese consumers. The former owner feels that Lamborghini did not bring their world famous high quality service to China, so he felt that the only way to show his ultimate dissatisfaction was to destroy the car, at least for Lamborghini this gentleman won’t be calling anymore – at least until the insurance payout arrives and he buys another model.

In China a Lamborghini Gallardo such as the one above retails for between $529,000USD and $757,000USD depending on specification.

That pisses me off so much..

I am with Lambo owner,if you pay that much for the car you expect royal treatment.Though,I wouldn't smash it.

[Ryzza5]

If I had that much money I would've moved to Europe before buying the European supercan :p

[t.]

Don't blame him, if you buy something that expensive and it doesn't work and they can't fix it and offer you nothing but.. meh. I'd probably smash it up.

 

He didn't buy it brand new anyway (unless China is a generation behind in Gallardo's), whoever traded that in did so in time.

Wow. Never knew Lamborghini were such a bunch of wusses.

 

 

Well, that makes me shirk from getting a Murc..ever. :P

Costs about the same here..

 

I my opinion the owner is a retard to destroy his Lambo whatever the reason is.

He could at least use proper weapons, istead of those silly little girls, only given some poor branches to hit it with.

Should've done it like this:

 

[eXile]

That guy deserves to be shot. Twice... Drowned too.. oh wait :P

 

Jokes aside, no matter the dissatisfaction I would never do that to a lambo

[Robban93]

That's whats happen when the three only working brain cells you got starts fighting..

 

Destroying your car is not the answer.;)

I have to say, I'm with the owner on this one. Although smashing the whole thing to bits was a bit unnecessary, he had the right to be angry with them. He was a paying customer and they didn't serve him. Still, destroying it was a bit over the top.

He should've done a 458 Italia and printed the photo on t-shirts and mugs ;)
