  1. If the car is in trade you can tax it at the post office. If it’s not, then it may well show up as already being taxed, then the post office will not be able to tax it. It might not come up at the post office if it’s in trade. It’s just a “Yes we can” or “No we can’t” I think the problem may be how you’ve filled out the V62. Should have just ticked section 3 Why can’t you produce a V5c? It’s been lost or stolen. No need to say anything else.
  2. Usual process is DVLA write to previous keeper asking if they still own the vehicle. If they confim they don't or they do not reply within 6 weeks DVLA will issue a new V5.
  3. Give Simon a call at Transparency Cars. He loves a Pink 500
  4. Interesting. Only 2 owners and he's had it since 28/07/2019 The fact it seems to be doing very little mileage each year then jumps by 100,000 in 12 months would make you think the tester has got it wrong. But twice? Is there any service history?
  5. Have Rolls Royce stopped doing them now?
  6. “Buy a car from us on one of our tailored finance packages and we will donate all our commission to Nacmans children’s charity” Or even “supporting XXXX children’s charity “
  7. We have talked about this on a previous post. He, for personal reasons, doesn’t want to make any money on the finance. I think you just need to ring the likes of Blue or Close Brothers. I’m sure they are used to dealing with dealers with similar views. Or, as I said previously, ask them to donate the commission to a charity of your choice. I think this could be a selling point if you are supporting a local children’s charity for instance.
  8. Couldn't have been that good a mate if you sold him one of them!
  9. Got 2 at the moment An Astra 1.4 Turbo burning so much oil I could stick an Audi/VW badge on it! Needs an engine probably £1000 loss A Passat 2.0 diesel blowing light smoke out the back after a couple of miles. Tried all sorts. Lastest guess is a DPF. Main dealer only, £1500 (that won't be happening) £2000 + loss I think I might be trying too hard.
  10. I find in these instances it's best to just let the police handle it. Thay are much more experienced in kicking the fuck out of people!
  11. Sortware? Gear ratio? Tyres? Aero? Remember the old Astra Eco4 from 2001/2. They were only £30 a year tax, and @ 80mpg. Everything else in the range was a lot more to tax and a lot less economical. It was different to the rest of the range for all the above. Quite rare (for an Astra) My paintman still can't kill the one I sold him for £300 5 years ago.
  12. Your mechanic should be able to tell you if it was burnt out on purpose by the colour of the clutch plate.
  13. Another spambot resurrecting a 3 year old thread!
  14. What do you mean? All customers are honest upstanding citizens and would never do such a thing. It's those secondhand car dealers!!
  15. Hope you kept the bits. Put it back together and make a fortune!
  16. I read it as the customer will choose 3 inspectors, and Dealer can choose which 1 of those to use. Don't use the AA!
  17. Especially to someone who can’t be bothered to introduce themselves.
  18. Mine works as a 48 month agreement is £x per month x 49 payments
  19. Blue do charge. Close build it into the repayment. Where as Blue add an additional payment on the end which is equal to 1 months payment.
  20. Actually he’s riding his motorbike in France at the moment.
  21. Some religions don’t believe in benefiting from lending money. If that is the case would it be acceptable to either put it through at the lowest rate your provider allows and don’t earn any commission or get the provider to donate any commission to a charity of your choice.
