    Had one this Saturday. Dad brings Daughter 2 1/2 hrs from Norwich to look at a 3 yr old lovely blue Convertible we have. After talking her out of it, because he didn't like the roof, thought it might get slashed etc etc. The one reason that they went away empty handed..... her words exactly.... no lie " I'll have to spend more time on my makeup when driving the car around with the roof down, not sure i'm prepared to make that much effort " I give in! How come when its dead, the freaks come out?

    Loving these... The 'bringing my mate who's a mechanic' is great. Most of the proper mechanics we get in have a quick flick through the service book and go for a spin round the block and make a few realistic notes based on it being a used product. Best one we had told his customer to make sure they had a grand ready in case it blew up. Panicking customer asks why to be told by her friend that it's a 10 yr old car and that's what old cars can do! Proceeded to explain to her that she should buy new if she was gonna question everything and that it was a waste of time him being there on a 3k car that had just passed a ticket and had FSH. Did my job much better than I could have!

    Best on i had, a couple loved the car they were looking at Right car, better spec than they wanted, newer then they had expected to get, lower mileage, and well within the budget Lovely i thought, quick easy sale... Tho after the test drive, they decided not to have it. The reason being... Claustrophobic feet

    What about the public sector, usually in further education type family,taterly dressed,bloke with bushy beard,downtrodden wife/ partner in in old Laura Ashley type frock with worst of all their ' free range kids' often wearing NHS type ill fitting specs.They are very articulate,bloke speaks fluent 'top gear' language like 'no darling not that one,it's the entry model'.In the meantime Joshua and Tamara are in and out your stock,standing on seats,pulling off sales cards and leaving doors ajar...... !

    Scrape as much off as you can, key it up, mask the area (big area) and buy some wrinkle paint and blend it out. Will be 100 times better than that and will barely be noticeable/take your eye away from it.
