[QUOTE="Mccormick 94, post: 7838635, member: 160977"] Like the mainstream brands they also have a good product offering, there have been gaps but they're being filled. Unlike the big boys which can partially trade off of their name and appeal Mccormick aren't in that position (yet). Therefore their products have to be capable, reliable and great to use, and they can't be released with known faults and issues. We all know mainstream brands which are associated with a particular issue but people buy them anyway because it's an X or a Y and it's "cool". If Mccormick did this they'd be screwed. We've yet to have a range and be able attribute a common fault to it. Also almost all of the dealers are independents like ourselves. They'll go out of their way to help and not forget about you the moment you leave the dealership (I'm not saying all big franchise dealerships are like this but hear a lot of people grumble about some). You can also normally talk to the man or woman who's name is above the door. I admit we have to fight tooth and nail to get most people to even sit in the seat but those that do are on the whole very impressed and once the first one is sold they then seem to stick with them. And at the end of the day competition to stop the big boys getting complacent can only be a good thing surely? [/QUOTE]
