    It certainly is, I’ve got some stock sat for months (some with good reason I should add) & some turns over within 2-3 weeks. One of my quickest sales was about a month ago. Phone call within 30 minutes and the man turned up 2 hours later as promised. I thought it was a wind-up! The car? A bottom specification Dacia Logan. The one in any colour as long as it’s white, manual keys, no central locking, not even a radio. Really nice buyer, no arrogance, pocket full of pound notes & declared every fault on his £100 swapper. It took him longer swapping over the shit from his p/x than it did to do the deal. Compare that to a VW deal. Three weeks of Mr. Grants (first name Immi) leaving answerphone messages at 11pm requesting callbacks (waste of time here mate), the Nearly Men asking about bumper scuffs & engine codes, the inevitable “When was the cambelt changed?” by our own homegrown internet surfing, big-talking trash and when a man turns up he’s expecting the VIP treatment, can’t scrape £200 from his wallet for a deposit & his wanked-out (described as mint condition & fully maintained) Golf/Passat has the front wings hanging off it, rattling flywheel, next to no history & the cambelt is 3 years overdue.

    And i tell you now he will take it home , subject to anything he wants to look at or say , Never had one refuse yet and he wont be the first to walk away without his car , I'm a lot fussier than he is and I haven't met him yet , Tell you Thursday when 12 k spills out of the card terminal . My world a deposit is a sold item , its not refundable either on distance selling because hes coming to see us and I'm open the public . man enough to offer a deposit and expect its here when you want to come 5 days later , then its not refundable sir , they know that too no secret . No deposit i don't save it "period " But don't expect the service of taking it off sale and keeping safe for you without your side of the bargain sir . But i do know what they are looking for before they arrive and their expectations are always exceeded . Why no one leaves without their new car . There are many many many skills to this game that i would not post , its a life lesson , One is dont do owt for nowt unless its for thee sen . Or in English Make sure you take a profit that is proportional to the sale .

    As much as you can get. Its whatever you are happy with and whatever works for you. I doubt anyone is going to post the answer in the public forum anyway. Some sell 8 cars don't work for less than £2k etc, they are happy. Others sell 60/70 cars+ for £500 a car and are happy.

    Horses for courses personally I don’t see the point of running around like a blue arsed fly for naff all profit I don’t want the burden of staff so won’t hire to allow for a change towards high unit lower profit model and when Comebacks occur it makes it that one bit more annoying when you know there’s virtually nothing in the deal
