They will genuinely hate you, there may be a couple who give support but deep down they wished you weren’t doing what you are doing. You are bringing their area down, you are devaluing their homes. These people don’t want a Motor Trader in their area. They will talk together in groups, they will stare at you, you will be hated. There is no getting away from it. You will have punters turning up unannounced, they will knock on neighbours doors asking for you etc etc. The coucil will try to bully you, you will get threats and letters. You will get notes on your cars, they will be vandalised and more. It doesn’t matter how discrete you are, they will be watching and believe me some sad retired bastard make there daily goal to stop you. Other than that it’s great Keep Smiling to them, be polite, keep discreet, don’t take up roadside parking and fuck em. You have every right to do what you are doing

The council have no right to tell you to stop. You can run a business from home without their permission as long as your property doesn’t require major alterations.

Only illegal if they are advertised for sale within 500m.

This has been covered before, if the main use of your home is family home then the use hasn’t changed. You have every right to be self employed and to work from your home. BHM, put this argument to bed previously. with a link to the government website about small businesses. Maybe he can find the link or thread.

So.....we are all ok then.....

I trying to write a funny reply, but I don’t understand the questions.

I’m so non Citroen...... I meant the DS.

Btw.... those old XM’s are super cool in my book

It’s a French Auto with 94k, it might superficially look lovely but surely it’s at the end of its life.... I love silver Someone will now post “I’ve got a 25 year old AX diesel that’s done 300k” and it drives like new.....

“Nothing in these terms and conditions are intended to restrict your consumer rights” Pointless, the pond life cannot read.

I’m with you on this. I love my job and will never do anything else, being a Motor Trader takes over your life, it becomes your life and I wouldn’t change it for anything.

Glad it’s sorted

I did look into it but.... couldn’t see the wood for the trees.

The 2nd 3rd week brings the older PX’s to the rostrum, they tend to be wood quality aswell.

Make sure you turn your phone off.. RRS = boomerang

The clutch simply disengages drive before selecting the next gear. That’s how it operates. Unless you are thrashing it the car slows between gear changes. Otherwise, tell you have a nice Jaz with a Cvt gearbox coming in shortly....

What the judge did was confirm the car was right when it went out..

TV I’ve mentioned it a few times on here in various depths from memory

This is why I take the stance I do. My cars are right when they go out. I cover my ass and protect it. I’m ultimately fair, no more no less. Absolutely.

Yes, I stood my ground and won. Until you’ve wasted a year of your lifecycle you simply won’t appreciate how it takes over. It’s made me so much more wiser. Not scared to say no.....

I agree, it applies reasonably. A 14 year old banger won’t have the same coverage as a 5 year old car. When you have been to court and won, and had numerous battles defending yourself you learn. Until you have been to court you simply don’t know. It all depends on the Magistrate.

You miss the bit which excludes wear commensurate... blah No. Let the public watch

Agreed Exactly. Nope. If the manufacturer won’t guarantee it then I am not responsible equally. It’s as simple as that. This will breed controversy but I’m of that opinion....
