Warranty for home trader
have a word with the wife replied to ExCouncilJobsworth's topic in General Dealer Chat
best keep putting them fires out then which law ? if you explain clearly and politely that there consumer rights are far better than any warranty, you wont have the hassle of " i thought that would be covered" and the endless headache, don't even consider saying 1 month engine and box, its so open to abuse, do you want to protect yourself or make your car seem more attractive is the question, to protect yourself, then service pdi, mot, to make your car more attractive then have a usp..... -

Fair Wear n Tear..... How do you define it ?
have a word with the wife replied to Arfur Dealy's topic in General Dealer Chat
Does a car that's 50% cheaper than new mean its 50% worn out ? no it doesn't, does a car that's 50% of original price mean that some of its components are worn out, no it doesn't ! At 50% of original price the car will have got daily gradual deprecation, this would be acceptable depreciation considered acceptable by a fair thinking person BUT this 50% could be as low as 10% of original selling price, and , if retailing, should still only show gradual daily depreciation , that is why we have such vague laws in retailing used cars, and the last word comes down to a judge what he considers fair wear and tear. -

Buying Advice on Stock Under 5 Grand
have a word with the wife replied to DBCARS's topic in General Dealer Chat
pinto transit on the motorway, inside screen kept freezing, spraying de icer INSIDE to see ahead, then the sleet got on the ht leads, and i spluttered onto hard shoulder, no wd40, so, not wanting to turn it off [ to wipe leads] in case it didn't start again, i sprayed the leads with de icer, the resultant fireball dried the leads, and i continued my journey [note, do NOT spray de icer onto ht ].. the york diesel had a single glow filament in the inlet manifold, idea being that it warmed the air going in, it didnt work ! Them lads in the 3rd lane in there sprinters dont know how lucky they are -

Revolutions get it ? no, never mind ! buy more cars ? buy less cars ? drink less/more ? retire? be harder? cut down on your carrier bag use ? only half fill washer bottles thereby saving 3.5p per top up realising a saving of £43 at year end put £5 in on cars going out rather £10? whatever your revolutions, have a excellent new year chaps

re my previous post page 3 ? he has already refused to pay hearing fee of £170 / struck out/ reapplied / struck out... He paid £115 to start the original claim...... If hes not paid the hearing fee then we quite clearly take for granted hes not receiving help with the fees. SO He has increased the size of the claim [ £3700] To start the the claim will now be £205 the hearing fee will be £335 do you really think he will go ahead ? because i do not, and he is telling you this by "text" on a sunday morning ? mans a fool

borrow a vacum gauge, gauge slowly reading down indicates a blocked exhaust or a fault in the cat BUT a blocked exhaust would not give a misfire, not used jump pack have you ?
