Young kid and i mean young looked at 12 came in with his young lady friend who also look about 12, spent a while walking around the lot then decided he wanted the 09 clio extreme nice car looked like a perfect fit his misses giving him the big thumbs up he then asked for a test drive i said no problem but one question you have past your test and have your licence with you he said yes i passed my test yesterday as it happens, hmm i replied the roads are not the best at the moment there is a lot of black ice around our way not much snow which in my mind is just as bad and as you have such little experience i wouldnt be able to let him test drive it so i suggested i took him and his young lady out for the drive. To be told no way either i drive it so i can see what it can do or forget it, i kindly replied no worries forgot it already and off i trot for a coffee.

Out of curiosity, what was the story behind the stroppy one?

You're not hardcore unless you live hardcore

Cox Automotive/Manheim survey.....essential to our business model,we always take part .......I am sure we do the same as Tradex,AndyMC and BHM,I just forward it to our Chief Financial Officer who gets our IT dept controller to download and collate the data .footfall,on line activity,finance penetration,email response times etc.......Our result has just come in....UP 0.016% on February......However we must caution the accuracy of this result and factor in that footfall was artificially increased by a prospective punter parking his bacon butty van on our forecourt one lunch time and on line response was up because a salesperson had tweeted support of Harvey Weinstein.

Hahaha Avengers, cheap cars for the greedy back in the day - or at least that’s my recollection of them as the local corner shop owner had a few & he was as greedy as greedy can be - if the “quarter of midget gems” was fractionally over on the scales he’d take them out of the bag individually. Anyhow one night his crappy Avenger failed to start (this seemed a regular occurrence in the cold weather but it didn’t deter him - I think he had at least 3 of Hillman’s/Chrysler’s finest). So our greedy shop owner flagged down a neighbour who tethered a rope onto the Avenger’s chrome bumper. Inevitably the bumper was ripped off the car and the old Avenger was left standing - it was like a scene from a Benny Hill sketch but without the scantily clad women. Then greedy old b*****d got us kids to push start him with the cry of “Thanks, I’ll give you a few sweets” as he drove away. I’m still bloody waiting for my sweets!!!!!!
