Telegraph Motoring Tickled pink in a Porsche
Couldn't resist posting this wonderful article! Some might view this as conspicuous consumption in the worst possible taste. I see this as a great example of prosperity consciousness.
Some interesting points from this. Ms Salmon bought the car as a celebration of good fortune (a good practice). She also wasn't prepared to settle for something she didn't really want.
Other points, bravo to Porsche for looking after their client. But, oh dear, what about that lingering male chauvinism from the salesman! My guess is that's a big mistake a lot of salesmen (not saleswomen!) make. As a consequence, they're probably missing out on a lot of business.
