Well mine this week are a beetle that won't drive because it's in a garage with its head off in a 1000 bits but she will let me have it at £500 ,off this car she must have because she's a carer and has no transport , apparently the flower on the dash is doing well mind And then a ford with no clutch and a value of a wet paper bag, I offered to get it shifted for the customer as a goodwill gesture,what a nightmare trying to get someone within 10 miles to shift it ,I made the first error by using facepalm, I thought they just did the innit talk in text speak but no they speak it too,then I went on to scrap my car but they wanted my left leg measurement so it's still sat there taking up the queens highway

They are out this week. 1st we had a couple Wednesday on a £28k Evoque. They have a 118i to PX, worth £13k, owes £14k and wants to fund our £28k Evoque with £13k deposit, are you all still with me? My colleague had to draw him a picture of how finance works as he genuinely believed that the £13k his car was worth could be used as deposit for the Evoque. 2nd, Year old Honda Civic, mature buyer had a full on door slamming tantrum after we told him he could not part pay £500 on a credit card despite being told this on the phone before he came in. Apparently it’s against his consumer and human rights and he will be taking it further... Apart from these the week has been OK but today was very quiet.

How bloody unreasonable of you! How dare you attempt to make a living!

Take it to we buy any car i told her , they only want to give me £800 for it she goes " Wow What are they on to give her that much I thought " I said sorry my dear you are asking to much money for it and trying to get more trade in than its worth to sell .

I've got to pay the insurance and tax with whats left she goes . They dont have a F##############g Clue they dont Cheerio Tat ta , Buggar off twat

I think the funniest one I saw was a private ad on AT here local to me last week. 2007 Honda Civic diesel. 170k miles with a list of modifications that nobody would want. Asking £3995 for it, AT retail was something like £1100, showing a marker of £2900 over retail. Do these people not do any research into what the car might be worth before paying a fortune to advertise?

I agree there Nick , some proper rubbish px cars out there nowdays but the ones who do appear to look after them think its worth £500 more than retail

Great thanks, I'll give them a ring today
