You are much better off selling ex VAT as most people will search low to high so your £4999 + VAT van will be seen by more people than one at £5999 inc VAT.

Greedy fucking bastards, usually. I regularly hear the line “I’ll drive it home and sort out the insurance & tax later”. Utter nonsense. Also the number who say “I’m insured for other people’s cars so I’m covered” (on THEIR car THEY have just bought ) is high.

Casper my mother was then and still is at 90 a fantastic Cook so my dinners were magnificent growing up . Then I went to Jills Parents and got such a culinary shock Her mums cooking ability was just short of poisonous

It's never the "normal" customers. Who in their right mind doesn't just sort out their insurance before they collect a car, especially when they have had to wait a couple of days for the MOT and PDI etc.

I want one NOT Still remember the future mother in laws Sunday dinner when i was young lad , all in one pressure cooker , more like mush soup when she served it Good they had a dog that eat anything

Just had a gold Astra & the V5 said ‘Gold’.

Slightly off topic but I get the occasional person asking if I’ll do them day insurance to get them home. As a one man band I have absolutely no intention whatsoever of getting involved in the legalities of strangers driving on the highway. Your insurance paperwork would have to be absolutely watertight because, my guess is, they’d come after the small car dealer not the big insurance company. I imagine any irregularity would be pushed my way - “No Your Honour, I told him I have 12 points on my provisional licence but he said I’d be ok for the next fortnight”, swiftly followed by their defence barrister “It is most unfortunate my client mowed down the bus queue of school kids but the financial burden of compensation for the grieving families surely lies with BHM who, my client attests, was responsible for completing the drive-away insurance”. If a customer is either too lazy or too skint to insure their new wheels I’m not interested in getting involved & exposing myself to risk.
