I suppose buying the car at the right price would not matter what Ford dealer you buy of.

But if after service is average then try another dealer

I have had mixed dealings with City Ford. About the only positive I will give them is that they were only dealer to give me straight up best price over phone for F6. Though I bought it same price elsewhere for other reasons.

Well I brought my buzz box from there via a broker and I had it back a few times with minor things that they didn't fix and I would NEVER take my car back there again let alone the double the price of every other dealer for servicing and annonying phone calls at deal time.

Focus service $380 at City Ford (where I brought) where every other dealer is $250ish (I get it serviced in Ballarat for $200)

They are rude, over priced and annonying

Edit: Of course that is only my opinion...... :

i had 1 experience with them that was enough.went for a test drive late on a sat afternoon,forgot to pick my licence back off them so i rang them and the salesman said he would put it away for me.went in on mon morning to pick it up and was told manager had left it home(why he took it i dont know)then they couldnt find it so i had to pay for another one(no deal was getting done by this stage,then about 2 weeks later it turned up.the yard is in a of a spot for parking anyway.
