    I have 4 hand car washed with in shouting distance - One opposite - 3 less than 1/4 of mile ! Interesting as to how these guys make it pay but more amazing one of the sites I've thought would make a great car sales front that I've looked at many time .. as soon as it was empty it was snapped up ..I rang to find out after about 3/4 days when I told it was empty and the ' car wash' guys had secured it with in 2 weeks walls moved - new entrance added and trading ! now that's speed - have they got planning ? did they get planning for new entrance ? ( we know how long that takes!) seems like they just get on with it - new signage, new equipment , matching clothing - very professional !

    Ive experienced this first hand... The place I worked previously was a main road 70 car used site. Back 6-7 years ago when it was busy it was selling 100-120 per month. When I left in July last year it was stocking the same amount of cars but struggling to 25-30 a month. Now working for a smaller site on the corner of a business park 'out in the sticks' stocking 40 and doing 30 a month easily with internet and satnav being the AutoTrader magazine of the past. Times have definitely changed!
