trade vet

That was a mistake,it was probably worth a grand.If it was a Regal maybe more.last year I was talking to a guy from I think the Worcester area who cobbles them together and gets up to 10 grand for them !

You have done well and great voice over.....can you do ours please as we are hopeless.

It’s not just these.We are set up to buy stuff at the door.Last week having bid people on their description,three people in 2 days turned up with cars on the hit list and claimed to know nothing about it.

What I mean by under booked is that Cap Clean valuations are often wrong and don’t reflect the market.Most proper stuff is well into book.

Hi. Stick to what you are doing Hargy.You are under the radar.Little costs,no VAT or premises and £45k day job.Try and do 2 or 3 per month from home I would say.There are plenty of car dealers out there with pitches,staff and debt to service who would love to be in your position.See what the others advise ?

Hi Frankie You are very fortunate.There are no cheap buyers fees anymore.But it doesn’t matter because most stuff is under booked these days anyway.

Hi AD, Something about the emissions when they are stationary doing business and still ticking over and also they are often parked near schools...........far more important to clamp down on ice cream vans than knife crime !

No good in London,Sadiq Khan has banned them !

Ha Ha Jason,I don’t think so,Uber dropped 8% on their opening day ! Meanwhile the original investors who risked many millions have made billions and Uber are still losing money !

AT stock are up 50%,yes 50% in 12 months @ 580p.I thought they were too expensive at £4 a year ago,so I know little.The company is now valued at a whopping £5.2 billion ! They net £200m on £300 t/o ! mostly thanks to us ! It’s just Sell in May and go away advice.When you consider Dealer groups doing £300m struggle to net £1m.Investing in BCA might be a better idea at the moment if they drop to 180p but I doubt they will,they are on my watchlist.

That’s the way to do it.Of course when company car tax was introduced I was doing 50,000 a year and my not cheap chartered accountant never told me to buy my own car and charge our company mileage expenses.I am still annoyed about that as both me and the company would have been thousands better off....Mistakes by accountants,they never own up to them.

“Lease a car personally through ltd company “,I am not sure what you mean,could you possibly explain,thank you.

Each auction seems to grade differently.We found this out long ago so at one sale we only buy Grade 5 because elsewhere it would be a 2 or 3.( note up to 5 year old stuff only).You get plenty of bonuses with on line buying.It is also beneficial to notice if there are strong hall bids when buying Grade 5’s online,that’s a bit of a giveaway.

Sorry,only know about ltd company stuff.

Are you a ltd company.

I am pleased you appear to have been refunded.On 3rd March you did refer to a retired woman and £10000 and how they felt.As someone who claims to be studying criminology,criminal justice and psychology you appear to be offering conflicting evidence. Good Luck in the future and never again pay for a car unseen unless it is from M&S.

Thank you Mark.As I work for ‘nothing now’,that would be an improvement !

Coil springs weren’t made in China then.What about Mk 1 Cortinas,the bonnet catch would not hold and it was normal for the bonnets to fly up against then screen.We just straightened them as best we could and filled them with bodge and sold them on .150% mark ups were not unusual.As a 17 year old,my basic was £8 and used to earn £150 per week ....no kidding....I can sense you guys cringeing .

Hi CRW Sounds like you have the job sorted.

I wouldn’t worry about losing that deal.Anyone paying in full on a credit card has got ‘nowt’ and you could be storing up future problems for yourself.We have always chased them.

You need a card machine especially to make it easier to get deposits from punters on the pitch.We use Worldpay which RBS recommended.So if you do 10 £5k debit card deals a month with the machine rental and their fees it might cost £200.It can take 3 or 4 days to show up in your bank even though it’s debit cards.Another downside to consider is tracking the money when it shows up because it can be in a lump sum which might include a full deal or a deposit or 2 which they told me specifically would not be the case.That was my main grouse from my old pitch which does a lot of business.We only take credit cards as a small deposit which cost a bit more than a debit card......I will be interested to see what the others say on this topic.

What we want to know is,have you repaid your grand parents yet for letting them down.?

My understanding is that you are expected to upload daily/weekly all your income and expenditure into ‘the cloud’ so HMRC can keep an eye on your business and probably compare VAT calculations with similar size businesses.

I hadn’t noticed the £4m ! The Bradford area might be a DMZ for local government trading standards officers,if anyone plays the race card etc I imagine careers could be in ruins.
