  1. Love the story, thanks Justin. I wouldn’t call myself stressing, that’s too hard, more real frustration with the quality of enquiries, or the lack of.
  2. Like I’m just used to being really busy, the last 2 months have been statistically my quietest, I’ve been low on stock and as “everyone” is saying finding it hard to buy.
  3. Ahhhh Sterling Cars Carswithnoreserve, been following them for years. I made my biggest profit last year on an E55 Estate, absolutely MINT it was, straight out of the box. The PX string went on for about 5 cars, all with great margins.....
  4. What I mean is, even with "please watch the full video presentation" written on the lead picture, in the description, repeatedly written everywhere they still don't seem to able to read.... Then I get the ones who say they've watched it but just want to "av a look" and "I would never pay you a deposit". It's getting to the point where I'm close to saying..... what part of "I only appoint confirmed buyers" do you not fucking understand. My buyers are great, they manage to hold a conversations in a bright and educated manner, they call say, Simon Ive just watch your video, I'm really impressed how can I pay the deposit :)..... That is exactly my aim. Very recently had one, spent 25 days in Thailand in March and April... Off to Corfu for the last two weeks of August I've got no problem being extreme, been that way for years........ I'm just getting frustrated
  5. For the last 7/8 weeks I'm just getting getting bombarded with morons & cretins, one after another, after another... It's really starting to annoy me and I'm just not being able to say the same fecking thing, time after time, after time...I'm losing all patience for these cretins and lack of tolerance levels are currently at 110%... I can see me getting negged soon !!
  6. I'm currently getting one after another, after another... It's really starting to annoy me, I'm just not being able to have the patience for these cretins.. I mean, how do they get through life being so fecking stupid.. My lack of tolerance levels are currently at 110%... I can see me get negged soon !!
  7. Justin, If only bigger companies taught their staff to take ownership instead of passing the buck.. just imagine how much easier everyone’s lives would be. It’s an excellent principle to run your business on.
  8. Any good runner with 12 months ticket is worth £800 imo
  9. I’ve run a few e320’s and yes they do buzz.
  10. When I met the other half, she told me she used to own a Vauxhall Fiesta. I still take the piss out of her now.... oh look there’s a Ford Vectra, oh look there’s a Vauxhall Mondeo.. the joke isn’t getting thin even after 10 years
  11. Yep, it’s still sat there.... We’re down Newquay sunning it up at our caravan
  12. Like the live chat blonde xx
  13. How many panel, it’s not clear ? Red is very difficult to match.... Panels
  14. Agreed, but I’m talking about s different Basil... The AT forum guys will know
  15. If you bought a vehicle advertised on eBay then you need to take issue with the seller, eBay don’t sell cars. Mid you bought through a Motor Auction, ie BCA or Manheim then they will accept the car back. If you have been stupid enough to purchase a car without doing the basic checks then you only have yourself to blame.
  16. Prey tell... why have you all turned to the dark side ? All at the same time from the imda closed forum ?
  17. Why ? Just read 10.25 and it clearly says the following. Comment From Richard. I run a small sales business and have 5 guys working for me who all have use of a vehicle as part of their package. At present they generally use part exchanges which have tax and MOT. How will this affect me? Can we tax off the green slip for instance? Wayne Stephens: After 1 October the vehicle should be registered to the dealer before they can be used for this purpose. Yes, the green slip can be used for this purpose. Alternatively, Trade Plates can be applied for to operate as a business. I read it differently ( Yes if you have notified the car car is registered "in trade" to the dealer thus not adding a new keeper.... You can then tax via DD at will on the V5/2 ( specifically NOT ) adding a new keeper.. That's how I read it At the end of the day, if you TAX it it will not be showing up on the ANPR cameras. Unless its been a mule..... Plus add it to the MID.
  18. Nik's rights, do it DD only and cancel when sold, if you pay 6 months upfront and your not the keeper you won't get the refund. Beware of taxing near the end of the month on DD, they'll take two payments in one go...
