  1. We have 35 slots and do 2-3 deals a month. It is what it is. But one deal pays for it
  2. E class £800 over cap clean and I had already sold it.... had to let it go even though it was a guaranteed deal.... what I don’t understand is.... people paying massively over cap clean but auto trader isn’t reflecting this. Where is the money going?!
  3. we have had 70 enquiries plus, and only 7 deals. But the quality of the leads have been dreadful.
  4. died on its arse for us, after a record 29 last month... we have only done 7, lots of enquiries still coming in but what a difference 14 days makes in this game!
  5. Footwell modules always fail in BMW’s
  6. Im going to get the ecu file sent over to a mapping company tomorrow and see if it’s been fucked about with. im assuming it’s possibly an injector however
  7. the otherone is still sitting on the forecourt, and the previous one I threw it in the auction as I got it cheap and didn't lose on it.
  8. Glow plug would surely show a fault and an injector also? Air filter is clean, and fuel filter surely couldn’t produce smoke?
  9. Bought car Monday online.... why is there an online buying fee.... that’s actually a joke... paid this morning. Was in and out in 45 mins.
  10. Went to blackbushe today to collect.... that is a big big site.... had to get a mini bus on a 5 minute drive to get my car lmao
  11. Hi guys. Had 3 of these now out of about 60-70 we have sold. But..... 2010 2.0 tdi scirocco 105k miles with full Audi history. 1st and second under full throttle grey smoke pouring out. 3rd 4th and 5th Gear, full throttle 3000rpm upwards grey smoke but not quite as much. check for boost leaks and air leaks etc but.... can never seem to get to the bottom of the issues anyone had this? Also no engine lights or codes.
  12. Price low to high within 50 miles I should suspect would be most people’s choice.
  13. Blackbushe to Essex been quotes £160 plus vat transporter. £88 driven, I’m not sure I want it driven that far if it’s not mechanically sound?
  14. Does anyone have a rough idea of delivery costs. for example BCA Nottingham to Essex. We are going to be hitting the online auctions tomorrow as we are being heavily out gunned down here in Chelmsford, Colchester, Enfield etc.
  15. You can’t stop these private sellers, but they come and go and very rarely last long or grow their business. So why worry, it’s the buyers that are the mugs from buying from him in the first place.
  16. sounds like you are a remainer lmao
  17. We don’t need Europe, they need us. We are a huge importer of their products.
  18. Leave means leave, no if no buts no coconuts
  19. It’s mainly all we sell. We have far less problems with German diesels than petrols
  20. First response for diesels up to 160k miles Also close brothers will look at a lot of deals on older stuff if their credit profile is strong enough
  21. Low quality leads but lots of them. We sell 2-3 a month through them and have 27 car package
  22. Handler protect always payout for me.
  23. It doesn’t work like that with ford. Ford dealers need to achieve so many new registered cars to achieve a bonus from ford. This is why fords will pre register bundles of ford Ka’s and then sell them for £5995 (cost) to hit there new reg bonus. Well it was like this when I was there. Regarding mileage and retraction of a registered keeper, I remember fords did it after a customer had it for 400 miles however ive known cars to have 400 miles as pre delivery miles. I doubt you would get away with much more than that anyway. Went to Aston Barclay again today and the prices were absolutely off the scale. a 53 plate golf gti which capped at £850 went for £2900. Eye watering. Virtually anything decent achieving £500-£800 above book and the lower end stuff In Terrible condition.
