Pick up my car from service & the tech left a nice letter in the car for me

I never taken my shoes off in that instance, my feet are usually killing me by that time and there’s no way on earth I’m about to kill them any further by doing that. Lol.
What I do is grab this tiny matt that I bought at the $1 dollar store and lay it next to the door and wipe my shoes off + I have my dustpan broom to sweep my shoes clean as well. [I leave the matt so the customer can wipe their feet off too when they come pick up their vehicle]
I’ve been meaning to buy some paper matts like they use at the mechanics but I haven’t found where to buy them for cheap.

I consider myself a car guy, but I really had no idea what a DB11 looked like. I’ve always appreciated Aston Martins, but never really payed attention to the body style changes. I would guess there isn’t an Aston Martin registered within 75-100 miles of my home.
To me your car looks like a concept or “no way can we build this” model. What an impressive looking design. This is a car that makes people stop in their tracks and stare. Thanks for posting the photos and your experience.

At my dad’s car lot a local bank provided us with the highest quality laminated paper mats to advertise the bank’s credit services. The mats were coated with a thin flexible plastic layer by Kodak I believe. Those mats were the Weathertechs of disposable mats. They would last through snow, rain and mud. I priced them out once and I want to say they were over a $1.00 a mat. This was mid 90’s. Needless to say we ordered the cheaper uncoated paper mats once the bank stopped providing their luxury mats.
Look online for a company that sells to car dealers. We always got mailings with all the cheesey car dealer gimmicky junk. Streamers, balloons, key chains and these companies always had paper mats with “come again” type message.

Mike,
I didn't even realize you guys had those 'Do Not Wash' hang tags.
Suggestion: Instead of sending those heavy cardstock 'Thank you' cards w/ every order (that get thrown away instantly), send a DNW tag and get some fun advertising out of it.

Thats sweet, It probably helps that its an aston martin. I don't think the kia dealership would do that for my car. I'm lucky if I get it back without any added scratches

Consider that many of the AstonMartin 'options' cost as much as the entire Kia, it's not a mystery There is an AM dealer a little down the road from my dealer and the options are truly breathtaking (and wallet busting).
Doesn't stop me from wanting a late model Vantage though

I don’t know, I can say, I’ve had 3 cars with this dealer and have been to service more then a few times. This letter was definitely a first. Anding a very nice touch to a great dealership
