    Customers who already come in with an attitude despite the fact you've never met them. Years ago when I started at a main dealer I had a couple come in looking at cars she was nice chatty, he was just a dick hands in pockets 1 word answers just being awkward being young I was a bit flustered so told my manager not sure how to deal with this. Manager went straight over to them introduced himself and asked the fella if he had every had a bad sales experience with us before.... the fella said no.. manager replied well your gonna f**king get one if you carry one with that attitude with my sales people. his wife just burst out laughing and said he deserved that ha.

    4 Friday 4 Saturday nothing today until a handover turned up I forgot was coming. Only call I have had was someone asking checking if something was still for sale and a wrong number for another garage - On the subject of that if someone has a punter turn up to look at a Vito today asking for Aussie Derek its my fault I gave in on the 4th time of him calling and put on an Australian accent and said if he could get here in an hour with cash he could have 2 grand off.

    I had a bloke email me about 5 days ago, asking if I would take offers as the car is overpriced. I politely declined and explained why the car is priced as it is priced. He emailed again last night, asking what offers I would take, as the car has been online for sale for a while now and no one is interested. How about you fuck off, sunshine?

    "I don't need / want to pay to have it diagnosed, 'xxxxxx' has already done that and we know what's wrong with it" "Well fuck off and fix it yourself then"

    If I had 80 cars for £4500 I would be literally smashing it! We have made £6k profit in the last 2 days and that’s with only 12 cars. I wish I had 80 cars I would quite happily pay out that kind of money, however I think I would really struggle to find 80 cars of the stock type that I wanted!

    People should spend more time learning how to use AT properly rather than moaning its expensive or trying to find a cheap alternative.

    Some of these so called traders sell some right sh!t, some of the stories I get told are quite unbelievable! I had one guy come to buy a Kia Sorento off me and the one he'd just been to see had a starting issue, the seller had bodged a can of easy start into the door panel with a tube from the can nozzle end, he'd drilled a hole through the side of the door into the engine bay where the pipe was fed to the air intake, so every time you got in to start the car he said it just needed a couple of squirts and it would start without even opening the engine! Hahahaha

    So so true. Don’t think just because you’re buying a car a £1000 more expensive it’ll be fault free. Absolutely. The other week I sold an £800 Focus with a DMF rattling its tits off (advertised & signed for as such) to a punter. They HAD been intending on getting a nice, shiny, brand new one from Ford on the rent but at last minute they’d been declining so ended up buying a piece of shit from me. The best thing was, they’d been to see 4 others first & mine “was the best by far”! FFS, what are people selling out there?

    I'll keep it short, so this happened yesterday, ironically just after I read the other new "Facebook" thread.

    Surely the point is getting the sale? Even if they come from the moon who cares? Car sold = job done. Some need to wake up, the world has changed, saying "if you think the way to do business is by text & dealing with arseholes via Fb messenger then you’re lining yourself up in the future".... Absolute bollocks, over half of my sales have come from faceless online enquiries, All for a grand total of £0 on advertising
