  1. Absolutely agree, honesty and transparency sells cars, no need to over prep cosmetics just price it competitively. No point in over prepping unless it adds value. Mechanical prep really sells cars, new Mot, no advisories, just serviced..... etc You can spend that extra £500 on paint but will you get it back ? .. if of course it came to you well under book then yes get paint.
  2. Love it me too, but Halfords gloss back, spray the tyres aswell for £10. Black alloys sells cars, no need to spend £300, do it yourself for 30 minutes work. It completely changes a car.
  3. Guys, I've been using Rhino 105, its good value at £24 for 25L delivered and its also great on interiors and carpets...... What do you guys use or recommend ?
  4. knob jockeys Haven't heard that in years... lol
  5. The secret to prepping correctly is balancing whether it'll add value or make it more desirable, some billys aren't looking for a mint car, they could be after a dog car or alternatively it could be their weekend prized possession. Go with your gut. BTW, welcome Brunswick. Simon
  6. If you could bottle it........ I treat myself and the family to a couple of holidays abroad each year and weekends down the caravan, otherwise only beer and Chinese (food)
  7. Exactly the same as me, keeping myself self motivated I do struggle with sometimes especially when it’s quiet.
  8. No offence James but self nomination imo is like sending yourself a Christmas card. Not my cup of tea. But... I would self nominate myself for the most selfish with my time, it’s my way or highway.
  9. You'd be crazy to sell the scrap as a retail car...........
  10. You must sell them as scrap / unroadworthy which must be trailored away. They complete a Lawgistics Unroadworthy Invoce confirming all of the above. I have never had a comeback.
  11. Hi Tony, why don’t you start your own post introducing yourself to the forum.
  12. Wow, that’s outrageous daylight robbery. I’ve never paid for spare key to be made up, mr billy you only need one key, two is a bonus.....
  13. Do you make use of this offer ? I always try too because it makes sense. My package with AT is 11+2, but I currently have 17 on AT with another 6 to go on. The additional cars will be free from Dec 1st. The more cars you have the more cars you sell....
  14. You'll never walk the same again..............
  15. Can anyone recommend a good value tool for checking the above? Cheers
