    Nobody is safe! If those sorts of 'nasty' people want to find where you live, they will? Think like a MI5 agent. Always take a different route home. Zig zag to avoid the bullets

    At the moment it seems nearly every dealer works 7 days a week and goes to an auction on bank holiday with the idea that they’ll buy a load of cars at a steal because no one else will be there. The reality is it’s no different to a normal day and with an army of private there on a jolly things can often be worse, 9/10 I’ve gone I’ve wished I’d just stayed at home, turned off my phone cooked a nice meal or gone out and done something - sorry, it’s just what I see in this trade and it kind of depresses me!

    Years ago I’d of said you might nab one or two but tbh I find nowadays it makes little difference cos if they don’t get bids the auctioneers bounce bids off the walls. They might as well replace auctioneers with machines nowadays. I don’t know with your type of stock but with mine I can hardly find any cars I really want anyway. Finding suitable stock seems desperate at the moment, or the stock offered is in desperate condition

    That’s called “The Mrs”. So so true. My last two XC90s (£5500 & 5750) the buyers did not give a toss, both deals done in about 15 minutes. It’s worth mentioning that they had usual Volvo side bolster material splitting - I pointed it out to the buyers this weekend & they looked at me as though I was from outer space for even mentioning it. Now imagine the response of the typical BMW/VAG man! What would follow would be a pitiful display of greed, whinging & nonsensical comments brought on by their expectations of perfection.

    Just got to keep changing to the market conditions and having stuff that the big supermarkets don't have to get the margins.
