So www.binca.co.uk the owner is also YouTuber calvinscardiary.com, how exactly are they getting away with selling cars like this ? If you don’t know he basically retails his cars as a buy it now car auction, therefore by passing all the usual SOGA laws of selling a vehicle, he still does px and his prices are close to retail. As far as I can tell the business is registered as car sales. So what’s stopping us putting our px shitters through as a buy it now trade car auctions? Or is he just lucky the local Milton Keynes tradings standards office is clueless! Opinions welcome Have a read of his terms and conditions, one in particular- All of our vehicles are HPI checked. We accept all major debit and credit cards. We are not a retail car sales, all of our vehicles are sold on trade to trade auction terms and everyone who purchases one of our cars will be signing to agree that they are in the motor trade or have sufficient knowledge of the vehicle to buy it on trade terms.

Oh ok thanks Still wouldn't use it though I guess getting a brighthouse type loan there must help

Yes he buys and sells at the auction with the same trading name.It will be on his BCA card. The problem doing that was you had to bung both the yard manager to line it up in the main dealer section and the auctioneer to turn a blind eye. It doesn’t, I was just recalling how Trading Standards treated a complaint from a ‘private buyer ‘at BCA.

Case history involving a close friend proving private buyers at auctions have consumer rights.He bought a cheapie from the fleet section at our local BCA or ADT whatever it was called then.It had an engineers report on the screen.He then just reentered it in the next sale after paying for it without touching it.I often did the same.The same engineers report and vehicle description remained on the screen and the only difference was the lot no.It then sold and he made a small profit.A few days later BCA asked him permission to refund the private buyer and cancel the sale.He refused and Trading Standards then got involved,there was an independent inspection and the cheapie was declared unroadworthy.He was prosecuted and fined and with legal fees it cost him about £1500,a write up in the local paper and I don’t think he got the car back.

It is funny but actually scarily true its like I was saying yesterday about the community council taking car reg numbers at the old hospital out in the country side near here and putting signs up about walking there yet on both the police and government guidelines it says its ok to do this .

I actually feel sorry for Milton Keynes trading standards?

That statement really stood out to me to re-reading this thread. I’d happily have a guaranteed income and an extra £2k tax free a month right now... these jokers have it made.

You have to take your hat off to both Jim and Umesh. I mean, they don't have to do what they have done and continue to do. I certainly wouldn't be arsed with it. There are not many in this trade who have my full respect, but these guys do. Just a shame Jim no longer posts on here, maybe now that certain posters (who bizarrely had beef with the IMDA) have rightly been asked to leave Jim could get back on the pitch.

Umesh and Jim are very good people, I've always said that. My argument was never with Jim or Umesh as people (even though I teased them), it was with petitioning the Government when thousands of people were dying.I thought that was bad. I thought the car dealer employers should step up and furlough staff at correct rates (inc comms) rather than bang on at the Gov. After all, the dealers created the low-basic, high-comms structure. (but now it seems they could pay 80% of full total wage all along... we just have to see if firms pay it?)

Well that was very good,I have to say umesh came over much better face to face than he does on his posts on here so thanks Umesh and Jim for taking the time and effort,its really good to not hear the bullshit you get from dealers normally when you know they are screwed

another enjoyable watch, thankyou.
