    I get the girls on the desk to take my staples out before i leave with the paperwork, they're fine with it and it's part of what we pay commission for isn't it?! I think those figures are a little dreamworld depending on the motor you're talking about. Weigh into those "profits" the cost of paying someone to dismantle all of that off the car, environmentally dispose of all waste fluids, unit rent & rates, tools, store items on shelf until sold, play race to zero on prices with every other home breaker on ebay and it's not as easy as it sounds! Even the shell isn't worth anything by the time you've lugged it to the scrapyard anymore!

    Your correct Umesh it's the buyers that are fueling the demand as they want cheap cheap cheap, and they don't want to pay for quality, that's why I really don't have much sympathy for the sorts of stories you hear about dealers from sites like pistonheads etc, I think we really need to look at a proper licenseing system for traders like they have in America for example

    40 cars a month is incredible with only 30 cars in stock you must be selling at very low margins? And sourcing cars at that pace must be a nightmare. I am not saying starting in car trading is not possible and yes money can be made but realistically it is a lot of work and hours and cash invested for really small returns as i said go in with your eyes wide open.
