  1. You need to send me a pic email is fine. I have under each advert price - RESERVE ME FOR £100 Scroll down and there is one marked SOLD and one marked RESERVED - which is genuine but I am going to leave that format.
  2. That's because you have already told us numerous times why you do that I have taken it on board.
  3. I just bought 2 off LIDL intelligent chargers - I am trying it on a completely done battery for curiosity but I am not back in until Monday to see the results.
  4. Just apply onlone JL, someone will call you. I pay £333 per month for 10+3 cars on the middle package. I know many pay less but I think they are long serving customers. If I was prepared to commit to 12 months, they said they would better their price but I am on 3 month trial at 6 month rate. Gumtree isn't for me but it is included, like it or not.

  5. My old car (when I was working/employee) was an E350 Cab. Lovely thing that I bought a couple of years old with 20k. Only ever had it serviced at Merc (becuase it was in warranty), never had any problems, maintained regardless of cost etc etc. One day, driving on M6 had a horrible shake, pulled in to Corley Services and checked whatever I could, nothing stuck in wheels, tyres looked all good, nothing hanging underneath, I am the only driver and it and had just done 100 miles fault free the same day. Totally fumuxed. Took it to my tyre man who also said looks ok but we shall just remove the fronts and check the inner wall. http://
  6. This is from my Ebay Page on one of the carshttp://
  7. Thanks Mikey - obviously being extremely handsome must help of course Anyway, at least I have finally proven that I am a fat bastard.
  8. 5 + 1 deposit collecting Sunday. Need a few more each month but prep is holding me back (and not having enough advertised).
  9. Crikey - sounds like a 70's porn film I appreciate your comments Simon - I am working on it and will send you a final draft. This was on a whim one evening before I closed up for the day.
  10. I am going to offend everyone now, except you. Your pictures are always the best I have ever seen anywhere. Personally, your write up bores me. Because of AT’s lack of formatting it just looks like a mass of specs all clumped together in sentences which IMO should be paragraphed. Your videos are poor but only because there is no narrative. I hate mine too but mainly because I don’t like my own voice and I do have a slight Midlands/Black Country accent (others will think it is strong but it isn’t). That said, I genuinely hold you in the highest regard - I think your work ethic is second to none and if you’re not a millionaire already you soon will be. I have never heard anyone talk so much sense, analyse data, exploit every opportunity quite as much as you. I am not sure if that is your culture or whether you feel you need to work harder than the next person who was born and raised in the UK or whether you’re just a sound businessman but you should be very, very proud of yourself. Sorry if I was blunt. I wish I could combine AD’s friendly, approachable persona, Mickeys voice/video and your business acumen - that would be a winning combination. I tried to create (this is a first draft, I will brush my hair and smarten up/change camera angle for the final) a similar intro to AD
  11. I'm pleased to hear that David, having served notice on AT. Please can you tell me the other platforms - Car Gurus I have (free version).
  12. I had never heard of Motors until I rejoined the trade a year ago - that says enough to me.
  13. He's ok, spoke to him yesterday - just busy.
  14. The rep told me Unlimited checks but at £0.79 + VAT per check, subject to fair usage.
  15. I echo the comments about Nick but also to the other regulars in particluar, NOA, EPV, AD, TV, Tradex, Dave 90210245374856521436485071Sunseeker/Ferrari/Gearbox All helped me enormously and I am very thankful. Had a spat at me on one thread too but I am not interested in retaliation. Advanced Member Members 27 265 posts Posted 16 hours ago · Report post Clearly that suspicious mentality is embedded.

  16. It was Dave 130K But... I have just turned a deal down (derived from Ebay) for my Merc E350 Sport with 60k up at about £10k (just increased the price to £10,490). Didn't want his swapper - RR Sport. I do get FREE HPI checks shown on my ads and showroom (middle package).
  17. Liar - try your own drawer
  18. I have had a Volvo V50 overage - been on AT for months, no sale. Started contract with Ebay (still on AT) - SOLD first day + a total of other enquies as follows = 3 further enquiries and 3 enquiries on Facebook (new thing I am trying). Same time period 1 enquiry from AT - oh and I am on the premium package (5+2) @ c£1000 + VAT/Mth
  19. I'm doing a similar project with a Merc CLK 320 cab which I wish I hadn't have bought but I did because it looked a lot of flash for little cash and I could see it being popular. I lost faith in it due to numerous "little" jobs but I am dragging it back from the block and will treat as a project - it drives perfectly, just looks a little untidy in a couple of areas and things like the glove box and arm rest don't stay shut + battery is flat and power steering noisy.
  20. Nearly wrote that but he said his tyres are ok. Swap fronts with backs and see if the vibration goes (might not see a subtle deformation).
