*Advertising* Ebay Motors Pro vs Car Guru Paid Packages
Mikey360 replied to DBCARS's topic in General Dealer Chat
None that I know of, tend to find Autotrader works well as long as you understand how to advertise on Autotrader, if you have an account and paid monthly package you can call them up for tips etc. -
*Advertising* Ebay Motors Pro vs Car Guru Paid Packages
Mikey360 replied to DBCARS's topic in General Dealer Chat
Ebay is currently one of the worst companies to deal with, no customer service, no response to emails, too many tech problems with adverts randomly being removed or never going live etc. Only way to get them to contact you is by cancelling your direct debit. Car Gurus is better as a company, but I found leads to be very thin on the ground. Odd sale here and there but then dry spells for months. -

It's all too hard to get anything from BCA, I think it's not too bad if you raise the issue on collection as you can show them the fault, but a nightmare if you get them delivered

Auto trader packages 4 levels ?
Mikey360 replied to Barclaywoodmotorco's topic in General Dealer Chat
I went from the standard package down to the starter package in Jan of this year, no difference at all. Then went up to advanced in October as a test and sold less that I had in previous months. Now back onto standard package and have been arguing with Autotrader on a weekly basis as they believe I need to spend more money with them to sell more..... even though the advanced package made no difference, if not is was worse. Also, if everyone is on the higher packages, nobody has an advantage? It's just Autotraders way of squeezing more money out of you. -
Upholstery repair - is it cost effective?

Personally, I think it'd be easier to put a second hand seat in from a breakers yard, unless it's a weird colour combo with heated leather that you'll never be able to find. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MINI-COOPER-R56-Sport-Half-Leather-Black-Interior-Front-Right-Seat-Driver-O-S/252782525865?_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D225076%26meid%3D1b4b30cfcd0b442aa41e37aa29145585%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dsb%26sd%3D262866075467%26itm%3D252782525865%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DSimplAMLv5PairwiseWebWithDarwoV3BBEV2b%26brand%3DMini&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 £100 delivered, I reckon by the time someone's repaired it for a similar price, you'd have the second hand seat in and the car advertised. -
All second hand cars, you'd be better off with a pushbike or walking

Put it this way, If I went to a restaurant and they charged me for ketchup, I'd up and leave. What happens if someone won't pay for the fuel in the car? Are you going to drain it out?

"I'm not a messer" "I'm in the trade" "My mates a mechanic/ In the trade" "Can you beat this fake finance quote with 1% APR even though I haven't worked in 5 years and have several CCJ's against me?" "I'm not looking to buy, just to test drive" "So are you a car dealer or just flipping these for a profit?" "Do you take paypal?" "Can I have it next week without leaving a deposit?" "Can I pay you £10 a week?" "Can I take it away now if I pay you half now and the other when I get paid" Take your pick

Sticky EGR Valve, coked up intake, glow plug / glow plug relay problem, take your pick -
You need to send them a request via autotrader with their name and email. Click on the 3 dots to the left of the pic of the car on the main stock profile screen, should come up with edit vehicle, boost vehicle and request review. And before you say it, yes, I sell alot of M Sports

Picture quality on desktop is absolutely awful, makes all the dealers on there look like they use cheap cameras!

I noticed a few of the multivendor ones have an outstanding stocking finance marker on the experian checks on Autotrader. I've bought a few multivendor ones over the last couple of days, collecting next week. He who dares

Mr Clarkson also dailys a Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black edition, he's hardly the guy you want to listen to about a baby SUV that he'd never buy?

Maybe, could be anything really

It'll always increase, shop around, find the best quote and ask your current providers to beat it, best chance of getting it down.

Spend some money investing in a half decent dslr camera, saw in the reflection your using a bit of a basic one. Even a newer iPhone will take better photos and video
