  1. Every time I go off to the auction the last thing the Mrs says before I go out the door is "don't buy for buying sake"..... Sometimes its hard to keep your money in your pocket. You don't have to buy, sit tight and buy the right stock at the right price....
  2. I've not had a phone call for 7 days............ keep smiling
  3. R350 is a good shout but I want a SUV. Take one out for a test drive....
  4. Theres a 2011 MERCEDES-BENZ R CLASS R350L CDI going through Manheim Birmingham (listers trade only) on the 1st....
  5. I ran an R320 CDI AMG Sport 4 Matic for 18 months, loads of space and very refined. Can’t recommend it highly enough:)
  6. If the cretin had said that to me I would of promptly escorted him off my land.....Moronic, **** taking little ****..
  7. Angle grinder, filler, simonize black, job done chizzle and hammer and a no dope smoking sticker Serious answer.... Ebay, buy and old school dash mounted phone holder to cover it up......
  8. Yes, I’ll probably hit those figures too
  9. GG, with the very big deepest of respects... if Glasses want our professional response they should pay for our time. My time is money and I have children to feed.
  10. If you want feedback, I charge £100 an hour plus vat
  11. Fed up with your FREE survey requests, you should be paying us for our time. If we want your product, it doesn't come free - we have to pay. You want our time you should be respectful and pay......
  12. Me Customer, you only need one key to drive it... additional keys are a bonus:)
  13. It’s a 15 year old diesel. What’s desirable about it...
  14. Jumbo, I have a generic “intro” explaining who I am, my business ethos and deposit and payment instructions - I also have a conclusion at the end which explains PX, payment and collection. The actual vehicle description is shot in short separate films, it looks much more professional, for example 1. Service history, keys and docs 2. Engine bay 3. Exterior front. 4. Nearside extrrior 5. Rear 6. Offside exterior 7. Interior condition & spec. 8. How it drives and the mechanical condition. Each video appraisal lasts between 15-20 minutes. So it has to be shot in separate films then merged together in iMovie
  15. Whatever you do never accept a Credit Card.....,,Beware https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/shopping/section75-protect-your-purchases
  16. Too add again, if they are not prepared to buy remotely on the basis of trusting your description, you can then question their integrity on whether they are a genuine buyer.....Make the feckers prove to YOU they won't waste YOUR time with an deposit....You are then in control
  17. BHM, If you accurately video the car prior to collection and guarantee accuracy you’ll sell them over the phone, guarantee a full refund if your wrong. Just call their bluff upfront, full refund if you’ve mis-represented. You’ll stop the morons chipping you and gain trust online. Accuracy is the key. Try it..... you’ll see Too add, it'll save you so much time, sell on the basis of trust and accuracy. People buying bangers need a brutal advert, as you've already said...Sell yourself online to the buyer as trustworthy.... then the car, they'll buy remotely
  18. I’m seriously contemplating adding and emphasising in my videos “the price is the price” if you want to pay less simply buy a lesser car Mr Customer. But consider this, would you want to buy a cheap parachute ???
  19. Whats the last price... where are u in the country, does it come with rates, elec, water included? Would you take £75 for cash, tonight.. I can pay a week in advance... You got there before me....lol
  20. Hi Craig, I use my iPhone to video then upload it onto the iMovie, it’s really simple and quick, you definitely need to get fibre it’ll change your life
  21. SB. If you are privy to AT forum you will know there is currently uproar that they are adding dealers stock to their website without asking permission
