  1. Rollercoaster, it’s year end that matters. I’m hoping (big hope) once Brexit is agreed and approved in principle the billys and business will start to feel more confident, we can all move forwards and stability will return......
  2. Cheers Cheers Dave, thing is I'm not really a hands on type, its too much like real work.. Hahaha
  3. Well after a enthusiastic start to the month, i haven’t sold a car iin 11 days and the phone hasn’t rung in a week. Funny old game....
  4. Thanks guys for your help this exactly what I need to know, is it worth me spending £5/600 on a tool just to clean ineterior a little bit better with less hassle..... Its always a balance of time for me.... if you get me..
  5. Thanks.... This is probably a really silly question but how does the air get into the compressor, does it just suck it or do you have to buy something to fill it. I have no understanding on how compressors work........ I would want one that plugs into a normal electric socket and just works....
  6. I’ve been looking at these Tornadors, they look a very useful piece of kit... the thing is, I know absolutely nothing about compressors (I’m not a tools expert). Can anyone recommend a suitable compressor just for valeting purposes ? Apparently the tornado requires a 2.2kw reciprocating compressor (wtf does that mean?)
  7. £275 BIN, ebay requiring clutch, no offers pay upfront (transfer) prior to collection or feck off, no messers, no guarantees, brutal video advert. It'll sell within 3 days I love the scrappers, easy money. Weekend beer money
  8. LIKE big style. Thing is, I just use my unit as a lock up, I only go there to meet the billies and do photographing, its got so much more potential but there's no way I could be assed to sit there all day. I do all my real work and videos at t home, that's what sells my cars.
  9. There's another thread..... all of those cars which you thought would boomerang back to haunt you and they didn't.....
  10. I'm no mechanic, not interested in fixing things in the slightest. I know faults from the 31+ years of paying out on repairs. I don't do the leg work, I make my money in buying the stock, presenting it and selling it my way. Can you post the clip link ?
  11. Oh forgot, I'm right next door to my MOT guys ( they solely do MOTS) and 75ft from my repair garage. We all work very well as a team, they both accept my deliveries and do all my running around for me..... It works really well. I'm thinking more like a pool table and bar
  12. The thing is I only get asked around 3/4 times a year if I offer finance, they always seem to be foreigners. However, I don't promote finance on my website and state very clearly I don't offer finance..... Does your website attract remote applications or do you simply wait for someone to show up who doesn't have the actual money to buy ?
  13. Cheers.... How does VAT work with the example of £360 ? I mean does the £360 include VAT ?
  14. So it that 6/7%c of the amount of interest on the finance, how does it work ?
  15. Procisely 3389 ft squared 315m squared, including three offices aswell and parking for 10 outside.
  16. Nik, can you indicate an idea of expected commission ? Oh and the number you do monthly ?
  17. TG, the reason I have chosen not to povide finance is because I specialise in higher mileage older prestige, plus I really don't like the idea of an a Finance Company bending over to a bully of a billy and demanding I refund them because they haven't got the balls to stand up to the billy..... However, that doesn't mean you shouldn't. It also means I shouldn't, if I knew I would be dealing with a Finance Company who would stand by me then I might go for it....... I am thinking in changing my stock profile potentially slightly and might and I mean might be tempted to offer it.....
  18. Definately a severe case of OCD....... I have a thing about toilet roll, the roll has to be hanging away from the wall...... Insane I know
  19. I like the reflections, makes the cars look shiny. The outside video appraisal shows the car in daylight so the billy gets two perspectives https://www.resincoat.co.uk/
