  1. I’m seriously losing the will to live....
  2. Not once have I searched a for a Suzuki car..... I bought new a RG 125 Gamma in 1986...
  3. 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 .. ?
  4. Too add to this, I pay Manheim to deliver every car. When you are buying Assured cars online it’s essential.
  5. Well done Mark, theres nothing like a holiday after a cracking month.. Well deserved !! I here Skeggy is popular
  6. 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.
  7. There’s no point in pussyfooting around the issues.
  8. I don’t buy any type of Vauxhall. Full stop, end of story.
  9. Neither would I, it owed me nothing so was worth more to me bringing it back than not... Simple business decision Thank you.
  10. Don't be a doomers, this has been a genuine project "wheeler dealer" stylie...I've brought it back to life for a few hundred quid..
  11. Welcome Frazbomb, its sounds like a collectors dream.....
  12. Agreed, I went to Bristol yesterday with my list of 30 which was wittled down to 12 after inspection, I actally bought 4 with only 1 being on the initial list which was a 2011 530d SE Touring 160k for £5900 with the tip and delivery, I thought that was cheap..... Also bought a T5 T30 122k in white for £4500 inc VAT Delivery and tip... I thought I'd smoke the 530 for a while...
  13. I agree, you are right Paddy and I apologise to you and all I have ofended, my comment was too general. I should of had a caveat "Not all" Brexiteers are racist and ignorant.
  14. Another hand clapping all round I feel...............................
  15. Spot on Tradex. Hand clapping all round I feel
  16. Yes, I lose some. But, I gain the confidence of people who wouldn't normally travel so far to purchase, being, open and transparent right from the start gives them the confidence to buy. Since operating this way I have cut out tyre kickers, time wasters, dreamers and the low ballers. Everything I hated about the job I have stopped. I simply don't allow people to waste my time and if people don't like it they can simply jog on. I woke up the this AT review this morning. Great Car Buying Experience By Eddie M 1 Day ago This is a different way to buy a car but it works. Simon's honest video appraisal convinced me to pay my deposit and fly 400 miles to Exeter. The car needed a change of licence plate and Simon's communication was exemplary throughout the process. He then met me at the airport with the car which it must be said easily exceeded his description. The price was very competitive, no haggling required and he helped talk me through the online taxation procedure. All in all it's been a great experience. I'm delighted with the vehicle and price paid and would definitely do it all again the next time we need a new car. Embrace the process and deal with confidence - you may never buy another car the old fashioned way again!
  17. I would take it direct to a BMW specialist. It needs proper diagnosis.
