Everything posted by have a word with the wife

  1. Elton John rang me and said.. "Do you want to buy my old Rolls Royce?" "What Reg?", I asked. "HE SAID...DO YOU WANT TO BUY MY OLD ROLLS ROYCE, CLOTH EARS.."
  2. Seasons greetings to one and all ! just had a word with the wife (after all these years !) She sends them too
  3. My mate ronnie has got these restrictions wrong ! He's giving fish n chips with every car sale because he thought he had to include a substantial meal, (i told him a scotch egg would have done plus his cars stink of fish ) Hes applied for a bounce back loan, and bought a trampoline During the lockdown he locked himself in Latest thing customer said whats that underbonnet ? He's only gone and put a mask on air filter, well, jobs hard enough he says don't want me cars getting it ? Hes not that daft though, I overheard him talking about his warranties, don't need them he says, you can't go anywhere Merry Xmas ronnie, now listen, you really don't have to have your cars that far apart !
  4. Hi, your car, not £2499, can do £ 1500 cash now, where can we meet? At the bank, you can draw out the other £1,000
  5. And "no noks or banngs " "No mot but will pass" "Just needs" is my favourite
  6. Well it has been a bit odd this year, and we said it would end up in tiers
  7. I think, qualified, and with experience its a absolute licence to print money, customers AND garages can see the tread on a tyre, but they can't fathom electrics, wish I had done it years ago
  8. Its 48 hours, and when you mot a car, that has previously expired, it can take up to 3 hours, as the mot website is only updated every few hours, I found out recently when I came back from a mot and customer was waiting for me, he went straight up to tax it and showed as no mot, and refused tax, he went in again on my advice 2 hour later and it went through incorrect, sorry the valid bit The other bits right Tail light warranty, when I can't see your tail lights leaving me, your on your own
  9. Just had a strange message, not the usual what will you take or is it mint, question was what tier are you in ? I have directed him to corona gov.uk
  10. What about the womans House in tier 3 but garden is in tier 2 ? She's built a conservatory on the garden, so when she goes to water the house plants in the conservatory she's doing wrong For a full list of reasons why she's doing wrong see corona gov.uk See if you can make more sense of it than I can
  11. carzam is now "open" ! All the very best to Mr waddel, and his team, having watched the car dealer videos during the last lockdown, I loved the way Mr waddel came across, (we are car dealers not bean counters) and his set up, some feedback to the website, just my opinion, photos, interiors of some cars are still showing damp on seats, yes l know that some material when gone over with valeter piles goes in a different direction, and looks damp, but some I spotted that they were cloth and damp, love the service history view, maybe a little more detail when carzam do the final check with a link to the pre purchase check ? The turntable view, might be my computer, but car goes round that fast I thought it was going to fly off Online, is the future ? I have to buy mine online, but my customers won't buy off me online ( every business is different) whats not helping is police on the tier 2 border stopping cars, making checks and misusing anpr cameras, and big coverage of this on tv news and online editorial but that's a different story for a newer thread. all the best
  12. Has autotrader seen a significant drop in advertisers who do not do click n collect in the lockdown/s .
  13. Thinking of working for someone else, applied at citroen they wanted 2cvs. But I am quite good at making sausages, that could be a little business idea, online, send us a pm I'll send you a link. Bloke next door is quite successful, he runs a puncture service, just bought a lovely big house, he started from a little flat. I don't know, it's so quiet round here, paper shop has folded, tv aerial fitters have called in the receivers, watch menders have called it time, locksmiths are doing ok though, key workers i guess. Anyway just thought I would give you something to smile about, I knew this corona virus would end up in tiers. Asked in boots other week, is there a cure for this corona virus this woman said "ammonia cleaner " sorry love I said, I thought you were a chemist. Let me know if your lonely and spending Xmas alone, I need some chairs Now go sell some cars .

  15. Do you know what, if the business is of the opinion that they can open, not read the warnings etc then who in there right mind would do business with them ? If they can't get the basic government guidance right, what exactly are they selling in regards to safety ? This is a couldn't care attitude ? Same with pdi ? Hoping to hoover up other closed car dealerships sales ? SCABS ! Yes lakeside, should be closed non essential retail, only click collect. And the customers Sat in these cars with there bollocks hanging out there shorts deserve everything they get ! Trouble is they're probably younger than me and get preferential treatment at hospital Can't educate pork mate, let them go forth
  16. Women, know your place ! Seriously though had the same messers last week messages to and fro etc, what they forget, and I know, is time is money, and I bet you were going in earlier, quick vac out, run up for five minutes, floormats shaken out, etc, your not alone
