REAL CUSTOMER STORIES
Fun Adventurous World Traveler
Loretta Sobotta is a fun, adventurous world traveler who lives among the thousand lakes in Minnesota. She is quite selective in her choices of the dealership she buys her cars from as well as the make car she drives. In fact, once she selects her next car preference she literally does her shopping nationally by contacting dealerships all over the U.S. That’s how Ms. Sobotta originally found Paul Clark VW. She talked to dealership sales reps in four or five states. From those conversations she decided to fly to Boston and take delivery of her new TDI diesel wagon from Steve Hilsdon at Paul Clark VW. “I could have purchased my car from a number of different dealerships and I chose Paul Clark VW”, she volunteered during a recent conversation. “Paul Clark had a very fair price, was honest and a real pleasure with which to do business. I love my diesel wagon from Paul Clark VW and I wish they were located near my residence, about an hour North of Minneapolis,MN. Then, I would have them service my car as well.”
An All-Business Professional Woman
Spend ten minutes with Kelly McNamara from Boston and you’ll be super impressed. This handsome health care industry professional is all-business, under constant time pressure, knows exactly what she wants in shopping for a car and expects good finance terms. Once her looking and shopping around was completed Kelly found herself driving a stylish, highly efficient black two-door Rabbit. “I could have purchased my beautiful black two-door Rabbit from dealerships a lot closer to where I live in the Boston area. But, I love doing business with Paul Clark VW and I really like having Clark service my car. I bring my notebook computer with me to the dealership and use their wireless Internet connection to do my work while waiting. I am really pleased to refer friends to Clark. After all, no one puts more miles on their business car in a year than I do. So, when I am satisfied I know other easier-to-please friends will be pleased too.”
“May I Bring Bunker & Kuno To Take A Test Drive?”
Picture this!!! Maura Cavanaugh Daniel calls Paul ClarkVW to ask…..”May I bring Bunker and Kuno to take a test drive in one of your Beetle convertibles? I want to make sure that they can ride comfortably in the back seat.” Maura is a convertible loving and successful restaurant executive whose restaurant is located thirty minutes from the Clark VW dealership. Maura’s success afforded her the opportunity to shop until she found the exact dealership and car to suit not only her wishes, but also the riding comfort of family members Bunker & Kuno. Sure enough, Maura, Bunker and Kuno showed up at the Brockton dealership to test drive a stylish, super fun red Beetle convertible. The fit is perfect, the deal is done except Maura wants black seats rather than the light colored seats of the demo. “Piece-of-cake, we’ll locate the exact car for you,” the Clark people tell her. “It’s been a super partnership with Clark since I go out-of-my-way to have them service my car too. They are very customer-oriented and have a wonderful environment in the customer service waiting area,” Maura says. (By the way, Bunker and Kuno are Maura’s beautiful, pure bred dogs. And, if you are interested, Kuno means “brave” in German.)
Car Buff, College Professor, Photographer, & Beetlemaniac.
True story, when natural science professor Tom Good was seven years old his mother claimed that Tom could identify the make of cars that passed their house simply by hearing the sound of the engine. Professor Good has not lost that skill when it comes to hearing VW engines; he can identify today’s VW models by listening to the engine. He is on his third (yes, third) consecutive VW Beetle hard top. He traded his Paul Clark-purchased ’05 with 90,000 miles in 2007 for a handsome, new light tan Paul Clark ‘07 Beetle that already has 48,000 miles on the odometer. That’s what you call a Beetlemaniac. So how did Good originally get to Clark’s Brockton dealership? The answer is in the most normal of ways. He was told in 2005 by a friend that Clark had among the highest Customer Satisfaction ratings in the Northeast. That’s more true today. Even though Good does a lot of his own major service repairs, he has a favorite Clark service technician in the person of Paul Pulkinen. Even living in Methuen, MA, a ninety
minute drive from Brockton, Good still arranges to bring his ‘07 Volkswagen to Paul Clark for selective repair services. Plain and simple, Good is a savvy and frugal consumer and makes no bones about watching his pocketbook when it comes to car expenses. He seems to be a perfectly matched consumer for Paul Clark’s way of doing business. Oh, by the way, if you ever encounter Professor Good at Clark VW, ask him to show you the color photo of his mint-condition ’41 Plymouth 2-door sedan. It’s in perfect condition
and one of his many pride and joys.
Bank Vice President and Commercial Loan Officer
“It was a great experience working with your dealership. From start to finish I was impressed with the level of professionalism and the commitment to great customer service. We originally ordered a Jetta Wagon. When it came in we changed our minds on it, you and your staff were great in accommodating our interest in a different model. Your Service Department has also been very helpful in adding a few accessories that were not on the Jetta we purchased. What a great staff you have”
“The car is a real gem! I love the Volkswagen quality and interior finishes. The sleek styling definitely impresses everyone and I really love the TDI diesel engine. All in all, it has been a pleasure buying a car from Paul Clark Volkswagen. I would highly recommend your services to others. Thanks so much.”
