I am selling a few of my old part ex smokers on ebay. I know this has been discussed before, but how harsh are we being with these listings? I am laughing to myself as I type the description as it is so brutal. But on the other hand I do want £500+ for the cars so dont want to put most people off using lines like... DO NOT WASTE MY F@KING TIME.

She just wanted a different car Dave

CRA - Conclusive Action Required Legally
Del Boy replied to Okay dokay's topic in General Dealer Chat
Not how a judge will see it though. CRA doesn’t just apply to ‘slightly used cars’. -
Simon, how on earth did you manage to get more than 1 suitcase in that?
-
Yep! Rather than ‘I just wanna have a quick look! I’m only local! I need to see if it’s this BMW X5 I want, or the Citroen C1 I saw yesterday!’

The dvla’s response is if it’s in the trade it needs to be driven on trade plates but not left anywhere. Trade don’t need to sorn cars.
-
Thats right but the dvla wont care about this. You will have to get a letter from the coucil to say that the area you parked in is not maintained at the publics expense, THEN they will drop the second fine. Also, if you sorn'd the car that is the dvla's way of screwing you even more. Because if the car was sorn'd they would ask you how you managed to drive it there in the first place. You cant say I drove it there with trade plates because thats what 'in the trade is for'. Just speaking from my experience!
-
Trade plates will allow you to take the car from them without taxing it. Also, this exact thing happened to me a while back. The problem isnt the release fee... Soon, you will receive a letter from the DVLA asking to explain why it was parked on the road with out tax, you will have to explain your story on the 'statement section'. Then a couple weeks later they will fine you again, in my case it was a further £160.

Well done that man! Healthy commission?

Was you turning a profit even in the early years Nick?

Customer car blows up 8 weeks after purchase...
Del Boy replied to Christian's topic in General Dealer Chat
Simons right. After 30 days you have the right to repair. He can’t demand a refund unless the repair fails and the fault returns. -
Nick, I think you had a result with 5 customers waiting for you to return from holiday!

I still believe something was seriously wrong with that swapper...

I didn’t think you was buying the Astra? What’s with the name change Benji?
-
Lol could you imagine putting these boards on your cars as a doorstepper! The council would be round in less than an hour

Thinking about stocking finance. Nextgear or VTG?
Del Boy replied to Simon1986's topic in General Dealer Chat
This is excellent advice. I had a meeting with someone from NextGear a few months back. I still can’t believe the amount they charge! Admin fees, monthly audit fees, annual fees, set up fees, the list goes on! I decided against it. It must be cheaper to borrow the money from the bank! -
Insurance renewal - how much more this year?
Del Boy replied to metcars's topic in General Dealer Chat
Mine went up too. But then again I did scratch someone’s bumper in Feb and they claimed against my insurance company for over £1800. -

Did you have trouble valuing that Simon? Interested to know how long it sits around for?! Any faults?
