  1. Can you post up a copy of the letter ? Cheers
  2. Thanks for all the help guys, we tried an older scanner and it had a lengthy chat with the Galaxies brain, apparently there isn't must wrong with it, osf speed sensor Chucked it through an MOT with it only needing some pads and a bit of welding Result, I'm reckoning £1290 PX to clear.....
  3. Thanks guys, the car won't talk to the snap on machine... I'll sell it with 3 months Mot as a project.... £590
  4. Agreed, the responsibility is the buyers, end of...... I always write a note on file if they drive off untaxed.......... Take note, long story, I sold a £700 PX banger to a moron who threatened me 4 days later that the A/C wasn't working and wanted a full refund. I sold it on the 26th of the Month and he hadn't taxed it. Anyway the RD letter came through stating blah CRA... I replied saying I was happy to go to court Ill be happy to explain you were driving around untaxed and as such uninsured...... Stopped the little shit in his tracks...
  5. Thanks Tradex, will get it on the snap on tomorrow...
  6. Ben, this isn't a school playground. Grow up and take criticism like a man. If you want to be part of this community lose the attitude chap.......
  7. Just taken in PX......Lovely old thing, done 116k with a full history 11 stamps, owes me £200. Anyway, the ABS Light is on, when you turn the car off and on again it doesn't come back on....Its like you start the car twice to get the ABS light to got out........ Any ideas ?
  8. Wrexham, I would tone it down completely, take out the angry CAPS and show your professionalism. Belittle him politely BTW, I also completely agree with BHM.
  9. Classified is fixed advert for at 28 days. Auctions attract scabbers and BIN leaves you vulnerable to negative feedback and non payers. The only way is classified.....
  10. Disagree completely, I go to certain shops because I like their brand quality and service. It's the same in every industry, brand quality and service sells. Cars are absolutely no different, not everyone buys from primark.
  11. I pay ebay about £170 a month for upto 25 cars, I pay AT 2k a Month.....Huge difference....Are you VAT registered ?
  12. I disagree, if you do the job right, build a great reputation and keep your costs low you can ear a seriously large wage
  13. Maybe its just a generic letter..... The DVLA cannot transfer the customers responsibility to tax the car onto us.. Car tax is now a personal tax........ Imaging being able to blame the HMRC if you don't pay your tax.... Laughable !
  14. Classified is the only way you can advertise on ebmp, you pay for a package of cars monthly. Don't waste your time auctioning unless its for disposal purposes only. Classified advert all the way, make sure you write a comprehensive honest description with 20 photos and you won't look back
  15. Welcome back I use AT which is very very costly and also eBay Motors Pro which is great value for money.
  16. Like..... I now have the AT top sponsored package, it started on the 7th of this Month (currently 18 in stock) and Ive not sold one through AT !! Not one !!..... All 5 sales have come from eBay..... 3.0 cdi Vito Traveliner 10K..... A4 3.0 TDI S Line Estate 10k...... Touareg 3.0 TDI £5K...... 320d Biz Ed SE Estate 6k.....XC90 2.5T 4K......
  17. The Lawgistics "unroadworthy vehicle invoice" covers my ass stating it must be tailored away, in addition I like to get them to confirm on video so they fully understand, video stops the cretins
  18. I make them say on video they understand the car is unroadworthy and being sold for parts. No comebacks.
  19. I like wet vacking, yes I do... as the poo comes out it looks like new...
  20. The problem is you are responsible for the repair, you haven't covered yourself. I'm with Lawgistics and use their purchase receipts etc. You can buy on eBay and be done with the problem again.
