have a word with the wife

bit of good news the car that was oily underneath, and this model never leaks, was a loose gearbox filler plug and the clutch that spun when you rested your foot on the pedal, adjusted to perfect so much for full service history by a back street bodger !

I'm not going to buy your car because i would rather sit in my chair and ask a thousand questions, and if just one answer doesnt tick my box i am staying in my chair, even though i will lie to you and ask your opening times, and guarantee to ring before i set off kin messers

i agree, better to try than not to try at all . in answer to your quote = "looking to do it with someone as I know I haven’t got the time at present to do it on my own" i would say if its a partnership agree everything in writing, biggest fallout ? money !

quote = some shoppers are finding credit card firms are rejecting Section 75 claims because the retailer they bought from used a third-party payment-processing firm to collect their payment – and there's widespread confusion about how these rules apply. any thoughts ? are any of you with third party processing firms ?

swap front to rear , then test drive ?

"We have been unable to verify the time recorded on this clock and it therefore must be considered incorrect".

disaster !

vat ? have a drive over during day, see the parking, industrial estates are notorious for being blocked in . have a drive over during night, see the security, or lack of it. contact the previous owners, find out why they moved out [ flame heating? claudius ash ? ] maybe security related, maybe bad landlord. find out who the meter/s belong to, landlords meters add there % view in rain, see if it leaky. basically, just if you were buying a house

Many year ago i was asked if the cassette worked in the radio cassette, ive no idea i replied, he got a cassette from his own car, placed it in mine, and it promptly attacked it, he pressed eject and pulled out 3 foot of tape Very recently a chap walked round one and tapped each panel listening for filler ! and to top it off he pulled drivers door up n down checking for play in hinge ! havent seen that for years ! The old nail in door hinge hey ?

shitter dealer {under£1k] average 25 cars near me threw the towel in other day, good! why ? misdescribed cars, saying full mot when in actual check its been out months, advertised mileages dont correspond to mot history, drives round with a trade plate thrown in front window, lets punters test drive cars alone, made up reviews, just mobile numbers, people arent daft and i hope he doesnt pop up again .

i think weve all had the cream in rocker cover brigade " head gaskets gone mate " 1 hour after being on co machine at mot pulling on back wheels to check bearings, but the handbrakes on dripping water from tailpipe "definitely head gasket mate " he stuck his finger up tailpipe and got sooty finger, he asked for a rag, told him to get his own my biggest gripe ? people who piss in your toilets and then have 2 more to look at

i read its down to bad management, usual too many chiefs and not enough indians, phoning three times a day "how many have we sold today ? what percentage were also sold a load of shit ? why why why ? tis why i work for meself, if i dont go out and meet n greet i dont eat meat and i dont feel greet

interest rates up next week ? xmas round the corner ? i am putting jam on them and theyre still not coming out to view at least some bright house customers are getting some money back so thats good for us

yes but where's page five

low feedback bidders nothings sold until your holding folding

i never even thought of sending it recorded delivery so its still not turned up then ?

Because they are lazy gets, and dont know how to cook, and when the passenger footwell and under drivers seat is full with maccy d rubbish to the point of seats wont move, i seem to inherit them

Is a very fair point, and yes they do show how long the cars been advertised, just seen quite a few that say 3 month .Makes it look like theyve been advertised on cazana 3 month, and the advert hasnt worked ?! email dealer before someone beats you to it ? its not really right is it ?

£12.25, apply at local police station, if its open, i had one years ago, chief constable pulled a file out, blew the dust off it, studied it, and then handed me a pedlars certificate

thats a very good post tradex

hoping they'll get chipped on this and not have to do it ?

copper in wiring looms ? few years time any amount of gremlins ? A bit back same thing with copper cable, poor quality, not enough copper in the wire, [ copper has a higher melt point] thousands of houses, schools, hospitals, wired with this stuff, there is no law that electricians have to record where they purchased and where they fitted a particular cable, one of the big diy chains kept selling it long after they were warned. google atlas kablo and homebase

the pdi comes across as a service to the customer, it isnt, its to protect me in the long run . re "get harder over the next few years" is so true, was just thinking about xmas, doubt there will be many white convertibles purchased for the wife as a pressie, used to be a big thing few year ago ! SORRY FOR MENTIONING XMAS

are kobe steel in structural parts of the vehicle ? will people die in cars that simply fold up ?

had a interesting conversation with a chap the other day, showed interest in one of my cars, he asked if the cars up the road [ parked in a layby] were also mine ? i jumped straight on this and told him in no uncertain terms they werent ! explained and pointed to my garage thats where you go when youve got a problem, and thats where you go for service, not some layby ! he said he understood, but there again i havent seen him since ? i dont mind telling people i have overheads, i dont mind telling people its a vehicle thats had a proper pdi , and theres somewhere to come back to for service, if they dont listen as to why i am dearer than "the layby" then i disregard them and carry on, if i have to pay more for my cars [which substantially i am] then the asking price has got to rise, have faith in your product and your service and you will pay the rent
