Think we borrowed that one and left it at Notts BCA , might still be there too

Always leave the customer something to have a dig at eg a little wheel scuff . When they ask what is going to be done about the wheels because of the scuff , tell them its priced into the deal , BUT I can get it done for you at £100 , amazed how many forget the scuff and its never mentioned again , all because you have put the ball into their court and now they have to decide . BUT some of the others will have it done and with these people it hasn't cost you the £100 , Win WIN .

I've tried working it out too Nick but its like 99% of the time now , Van CAP price at Brighouse on Monday £3200 and it made £3850 funnily enough just 20% over CAP , on sale today at £4695 +VAT Must be a loophole or its as you say a clever move of the additional so Called VAT as a 20% extra mark up , Don't know what happens if you get a VAT reg trader wanting to buy the van though .

On this subject I've seen vans go through auction as a private non VAT van and then appear on van trader as Plus VAT ..

Normal drive away stock ebay jokers are painful pillocks , , just a safety check and oil ,water , tyres , wipers lights , they get told what they are , bring em back if you don't want it in 1 hour and i'll refund you .

Welcome to the industry Kelly , drive and passion sound very positive indeed . Thats your first qualification passed Advice from me for your chin : You only work half a day when on your own ; "Chose which 12 hr shift you want " Second part that proceeds the first advice is ; "If your awake your at work " Remember this too from an old hand , ITS NOT WHAT YOU TAKE , ITS WHAT YOU MAKE , Got it , profit is NOT a dirty word and you do any thing for nothing just make sure its for you two only .
