I might be wrong, but I think he’s asking for advice. Try again Stalker

I usually stock around 100 cars between my two companies. January and February tend to be quite busy for me and I honesly can say that I have sold 68 from the beginning of the month. I can buy good stock if I work harder and travel a lot further than my local auctions. My repair and reconditioning expenses are now beginning to take their toll on my profits. Here’s funny thing. I’ve sucked up the Autotrader over the years, I’ve sucked up the BCA charges over the years ( I amcurrently a black card customer). How much more do I have to take until everything else pushes me over...:CRA, FCA Rules, pensions, council rules and regulations, credit card payment restrictions, etc, etc.

Benji, MrV. Same numpty. Come to cca in Glasgow. I’d love to school you.

Compensation society. Compensation for your stress?? You’re in the wrong business buddy if that’s your thinking.

Any Lexus petrol. I win!!!

Can you make it to the sale or are you buying online? I sometimes think the inspectors are a bit hard on the cars just to cover their own backs. From my own experience that engine tends to pretty tough. Never had a major issue with the 3.0 litre Mercedes engines, only serviceable items.
