It’s ok for those who have their own private parking & thus a dedicated area for a charging point installation. What about the millions of people in terraced houses, flats (apartments if you’re posh) and basically every other property where a public footpath separates the car from the home? The infrastructure just isn’t here. Yet?

You can forget all of the big talk, promises etc. - pound notes (or whatever payment you take) sorts the wheat from the chaff. I believe absolutely sweet f.a. what punters tell me until they turn into customers (that means get their money out). It would be nice to be proved wrong but phrases such as “I’m not a messer” is the death knell of any deal.

Just thinking, any car coming off a private plate, a change of address, duplicate V5 etc. etc. will generate a very recent date anyway.

I’d say a small oil leak on a secondhand car that’s a few years old isn’t a fault, it’s wear & tear and comes with the territory. Most older cars have some sort of minor leak or oil seepage from what I see. Not wishing to tempt fate I’ve never had a complaint or a car returned due to an oil leak, but admittedly I’m not selling 40 grand Porsches. However I’ve had the occasional punter walk away from a minor leak but I’ve also had punters walk because they don’t like red cars (after coming to see a red car) etc.

What’s wrong with you, you Pussy? Don’t you like buying a car then finding the previous keeper got it a week last Wednesday?

I can’t see how working from the door dictates your working hours. Surely one of the pluses of self-employment is choosing one’s own hours?

Hahaha, I think I might of made a right cnut of myself .

So so true, 99.9999999% of the time “I’m not a messer” means exactly the opposite.

+1. I’m flexible time-wise if I think there’s a sale to be had (Mon-Sat) but not with local test pilots - they can fit in with my plans. Tbh distance punters are what I prefer, it’s locals phoning for a look who “can’t make it for a day or two” that aren’t really serious anyway - they can fuck off.

I’ve got something that wants sucking if you’re interested. I guess the alarm systems aren’t as good as BMW makes you believe?

Who’d a thought it? An man ‘in the trade’ telling us he has extensive sales & buying experience with a query regarding awkward customers. He sounded 100% genuine to me.

Do me a favour, email me the name of the place you can buy cheaply & regularly enough to sell to the trade & make a wage.

Interesting. Thanks for letting us know.

Customers, that means people who actually buy, ok. Punters, about 75% are cunts.

What’s the engine code? Aaaarrrggggghhhhh!!!!

VAG man alert! CAMBELT?

So you bought the car as per it’s auction description, after the event the vendor then thinks they can come back to cherry pick the reg. and then, to cap it all, the auction site terminates your account. What sort of cockeyed management is that? They deserve to go under.

They’re always fussy about the car they’re buying but not so fussy about their p/x with oil as thick as tar (that’s if you can see any on the dipstick), cambelt 2 years overdue, tyres like Duncan Goodhew’s head & brakes grinding like an old cement mixer.

Anyone know where I can get a pair of https://www.paramountind.com/best-mpow-headphones/ ?

When I used to be on DA I asking a couple of new vendors over in Cumbria, who I was buying from, where they used to auction their cars. They’d previously used fullauction, which I’d never heard of, but they both said it was pisspoor - and that was over 2 years ago.

Anyone know where I can purchase any forex signals?

In my experience this is because Mrs. VAG man is actually more of a man than Mr. VAG man because he’s nowt but a spineless bellend repeating parrot fashion every bit of shite that is spewed across the Internet, pretending to worry about every aspect of his potential purchase in order to make a pathetically low offer which he’s praying you don’t accept because he hasn’t got the money anyway and even if he did, could he just check the Volkswagen wallet again “in order to check the veracity of the information contained within the documentation, by means of main dealer service stamps, against the manufacturers service schedule in order to satisfy myself as to the calibre of the previous owner”. Wankers.
