So many people join this forum and ask questions as dealers who are just starting out, that I've decided to cater for these new dealers with a regular series of features offering help and advice in Car Dealer Magazine. When we've completed the series, I intend to turn it into a bookazine to offer to new dealers so they can get all the advice they've been asking for in this forum. And perhaps it'll give you lot a rest... So my reason for posting is this: If you were going to write a book like this what would the chapters be titled? And before you start with the 'Don't Bother', 'Go And Work At McDonald's' etc ideas, I'm looking to be helpful here... Look forward to hearing your ideas!

Is it not the case that the finance companies you refer to are just applying the terms of the contract you signed? It's easy to see the £signs attached to the 'we'll bring you more business' offer, but the devil is always in the detail. These companies are living off your sweat and blood and they're having it away and dumping on you when it gets a bit warm. Because they can. If you let a fox in the chicken shack to keep warm in winter, you shouldn't really be surprised when it starts eating the chickens. Just saying...
