  1. Notchback, do you intend in doing this job correctly ?
  2. Mojo, my process is unique. Don't cowardlly taking the piss, join the community and explain your opinion. Also, tell your bitch True-Trade to grow some balls aswell.
  3. Your right, I love bangers they always sell quickly, it owed me nothing, I spent £700 and doubled my money within a few days. ROI.... not only that, I saved it from the scrapper. And yes, -+ the vat and tax it was still worthy of a fun project.
  4. Not anymore, it sold straight away
  5. Mainly, German / Swedish and primarily diesel estates, but always have a variety including my PX’s from £1500 to £15000
  6. What some traders find hard to understand is I don’t want to operate mainstream. I don’t want to be a forecourt. I want to sell all my cars remotely by video on the net. I just want to deal with customers who appreciate exactly where I’m coming from and have specifically chosen to buy from me. Simple.
  7. Nik, you don’t sell your cars by video, I do. I’m unique in the way I operate. I don’t need, nor do I want to deal with finance customers and I definitely don’t want to spend my time trying to convert the “maybe’ customers. My customers buy from me because of the way I operate, openly and transparently. No messing, upfront honest description, confirmed buyers only. I wouldn’t operate any other way.
  8. Take a step back and chill, you are getting friendly valuable adult advice. This isn’t Mumsnet......
  9. It’s part of the game if you allow these shits to do it to you. It’s why I only appoint, video watched “deposit paid” genuine buyers. You know my thoughts...
  10. Do it on grass or gravel, not on your drive (overspray, You can also do the calipers at the same time.
  11. Yes, but that takes time and the enthusiasm to do it.... both of which I don’t have
  12. Paint em black with Halfords workshop primer, simoniz gloss black, then lacquer..... £20
  13. I’m seriously losing the will to live....
  14. Not once have I searched a for a Suzuki car..... I bought new a RG 125 Gamma in 1986...
  15. I’ve just bought a white 57 plate T5 T30 Lwb 102 122k 3 owners NSH, needs £600 paint, what’s it worth as is .. ?
  16. Too add to this, I pay Manheim to deliver every car. When you are buying Assured cars online it’s essential.
  17. Well done Mark, theres nothing like a holiday after a cracking month.. Well deserved !! I here Skeggy is popular
  18. The slide downwards in business is across the board, it’s not just you. From viewing your website, it looks half hearted and I think you have let complacency slip in. It looks to me like your aren’t making any effort. In my book your pictures and presentation is shockingly bad. Picture locations are poor, your pictures are inconsistent and poor, exterior pictures are taken far to close. Find a nice background for your photos, stand back then zoom in for your exterior pictures. Selling CAT C’s to the public is a very big no no in my book. Your descriptions are generic and boring. No videos appraisals. You are still using a vastly overpriced AT Stone Age website.... You need to up your game and Phoenix yourself.
  19. There’s no point in pussyfooting around the issues.
  20. I don’t buy any type of Vauxhall. Full stop, end of story.
  21. Neither would I, it owed me nothing so was worth more to me bringing it back than not... Simple business decision Thank you.
