  1. +1 the advert looks like you are Trade hiding as a private seller. You need to be registered as a business seller. Find a better backdrop to take pictures.
  2. Agreed, why would you back a business man who isn't prepared to back himself when he has the means to do so....No way in my book. There's an attraction with a layman with no money and a fab idea... The banks take little risk and when they lend its usually protected. When they lend on rotten foundations then a crash is inevitable....
  3. Anyone who uses their home as collateral is gambling their family life...... The banks see easy money...Savages when they need to be....
  4. Hi Twerp, I outsource all the mechanical work and 90% of the valeting. I see my role as solely the sales end, making sure the photos and video are top notch.... it’s a constant evolvement, I’m always trying to refine.....
  5. Wow Rory result !! I'm plodding along with 9 sold so far, but very busy trying to get my unit usable Ive only got 9 listed with 11 to put on......There's not enough time in the day...
  6. My business account is with Santander, I have always found them really accommodating. But then again I don't have any dept.... I learnt a very hard lesson back in 2008, don't owe money to anyone, as soon as you are in debt you are a bitch to the loan. The Banks / lenders are not your friend.......
  7. Mr C I sold my T4 this week for top money £7900 Very pleased me is......
  8. Those kids sweet machines they have in pubs etc which are a pound for a pot of copy minstrels is still good for the old pound coins...
  9. Lawgistics purchase receipts state clearly the buyer confirms they understand it is their responsibility to return in the event of a claim. Irrespective of distance, it is their responsibility to return in the event of a CRA claim. You can allow a remote goodwill repair which if worded correctly will not count as the (one chance right to repair). That's why you need to judge each claim as per its merit / risk / worth / pain in the assness. Is assness a word.... ? BTW, my 4 year old asked me today why hail (hailstones) is called hail ? Answers please....
  10. They should renew automatically, you don’t need to reapply.
  11. My T4 Camper was collected today I’d priced up the PX over the phone 04 Golf GT TDI, he tells me it’s one of the last MK4’s and I price accordingly (low ball). He turns up this morning in a MK5, loaded with leather, aftermarket Satnav Bluetooth, etc etc:)
  12. Yes, your purchase receipt should state the vehicle should be returned in the event of a CRA claim. The customer signs to agree.
  13. Hi, I don’t think the banner looks good, also the photos need to be consistent and not taken in bright light. The trees reflecting on the bodywork is unattractive. IMO your write up is ok
  14. Ghosting.... explain why you felt it necessary and who you were ghosting
  15. Agreed, the photos look bad, pictures with a unit behind look like your are not trying to make and effort to sell it. Find a background which makes the car stand out.
  16. The thing with being a wheeler dealer and "buying and selling" is that it gets into your blood. Once you get the bug, you are always looking for a deal......
