  1. Lamborghini owners are quiet today................HMRC must monitor this forum
  2. Jag for the week.................Alfa for the weekend
  3. Most of us have many considerable years in this business and we would all say we are still learning / adapting........................ you dont sound to me as though you have been through any formal franchise / PLC type of car sales employment...................... if thats the case and this is new to you from the first 2 years you have been struggling then this is why you are struggling, I considered when i went on my own that i had 20 years of doing this exact same thing for an employer and i was about to do exactly same thing but for my self, Was not so daunting, This business is hard cruel and ever changing, I think its just the case you have not had your apprenticeship done in someone eases business, and you are having to learn it from scratch without the benefit of having "trained" at a dealership
  4. Thanks all, Your all adding valuable information, I do now have a greater understanding of procedure and what to expect and that alone makes it a little less daunting, I will report back how it went, Not getting to optimistic i am sure Judge has me labelled as a rouge already just because of the profession i am in,
  5. court papers read .....................will take no more than 3 hours
  6. lawgistics has made sure i am compliant, You are right you can not rely on anything that has not already been submitted to the court, I have done exactly that, Everything i will be relying on in court has already been submitted to the court as evidences or supporting paperwork
  7. This business is never part time, Its bloody hard graft, Anyone thinking its easy money for little effort will realise very quickly its not this is going to be wrong stock profile and paying to much for them and them having them stick around to long and then it becomes a distress sale
  8. My plan was to defend myself not because of money saving just because i believe i know the case inside out far better than an advocate who may have 10 other cases that week, I think to a judge it will come across better for me if i am there defending myself< i think i have all my main points sorted and can show i am not at fault as i would need to Will i only know if Plaintiff is represented on the day of the case ?? Is Plaintiff going to be alone also no family no friends ??? is that the way it works
  9. Gentlemen, Useful incite, I thought it lasted 2 hours not twenty minutes, If Judge does most of the talking then did you feel he knew everything about the case and gave you the confidence he had a good understanding of your side and defence ?? I will have a think about the Lawgistics representative,
  10. On a previous post i was grateful to members on what format the mediation process takes and it was of great help with your experiences, I am in court Early April................ not going to cover the content of the case its happening so today i was hopeful of gaining incite into what happens at this point I am with Lawgistics is is worth having one of there lawyers for that day ??? reason i ask is i am pretty happy with the case, know what is the main point of my defence is going to be and i am happy i can put this over in an easy to understand way so if you could educate me to what happens please, I seriously have no idea and its this part of the process that is the worry, I am perfectly happy i have a robust defence i just need to have the inner workings of what they do on this day in court, Format times scale ect anything i should know from members experiences
  11. a deal is a deal, breaking that bond says a lot about the person if they choose to break that bond so easily
  12. If only i got paid on people saying they are coming over saying they are interested saying they are going to buy it
  13. 4 yourkshire men sketch .....................................I dream of getting a Spunktrumpet
  14. Jan ..................Excellent Feb ................. Excellent March .............. off a cliff really concerned, I have decent stock profile and well priced to market but just simply no inquiries
  15. if you have taken a deposit agreed terms signed an order then you have to stand on it, I know it really is bad knowing you have another more profitable offer it seems but i would question why on a car that is sold your sales process got so far down the line that you got into negotiation on a sold car ??? its just me but i am principled and i would have to do right thing and honor the original deal
  16. yes you wont get stuck with anything at those margins............................... moving from dipping your to into it to making a real living from it you really need to be taking £1000 net from them sales or else you will not be able to sustain a business, I would state thats the aim £1000 i am not saying i do that on every occasion, You and i have similar backgrounds and all i can say is that you really think you know the business and the industry and you think you know what your doing and you very probably make your dealership a decent profit but when its your business and its your cash funds you have a whole heap of learning and new experiences still to go, Its a whole new world when you are literally on your own, Not saying you cant or shouldn't do it just that it will be a real jolt to your system as to how much you really dont know, I am into year 6 on my own now and its still a growing process learning every day and week
  17. Ask Lucas he is on here he was like you a new starter i hear he is absolutely flying and making sales for fun
  18. i sold 2 cars from the Free package last month, I was very surprised but the deals were very welcome, You do have to put up with a considerable amount of spoof or just low quality inquiries to reach the few genuine ones
  19. there are 7 and 9 these are for target cars and spoof cars, you are right the lower numbers 1-2-3-4 are weeks in stock
  20. if you notice there prices end with differing numbers and they all mean something, I think 7 or 9 is a Spoof car does not exist
  21. oohhhhhhhh no the headlamp does not look fully in position and he only has 69% battery !!!!!!!!!!!!
  22. I have experience with these inlet manifolds its basically over rotation of the flaps them selves, Its a poor design and it will be a problem as its plastic on plastic its a constantly moving part and it just wears, The kits mean that the swirl flap rotation arm is now going to have a "hard" stop against a aluminium billet, There are load on Ebay you just need to be sure you are ordering the correct one, You may need the part number of the manifold on there to make sure your purchase is the exact one for your car, I done 2 of these now £15 rather than £500 Loads of Vids too on Youtube
  23. price them to the market as its different London and North east.......................and then review a few times a month according to inquiry level in short there is no one price fits all
  24. no you dont have to give a warranty at all, However you do have to comply fully with the Consumer Wrights act 2015 and as such you are liable for certain repairs for any car you sell, so warranty or no warranty is your choice you are likely to get both points of view on here but ultimately its your choice, I personally do give 6m warranty and find it works for me
  25. Always before, If you are doing a tight deal and you do it your way and the mot costs £200 you done your tight deal and it became a real horrible deal, At least doing it prior t sale you know exactly to the penny where it stands you
