With BCA assured i have made a good few claims, Some surprised and paid out, Some thought it was a certainty it would be aid out and it was rejected, its hit and miss in my opinion, They basically do not want to know once you paid

Biggest issue with car sourcing is that the customer will still carry on shopping / looking at the same time as you are looking, I have been asked to source cars before but the £500 deposit and 4 weeks to find suitable model always catches out the none serious (thank god) they all want you to put time and effort in then have a look at it and then add it to there list off possibles,

great news, it was either a sold straight away car or you would be doing an MOT birthday happy you sold it

yes agreed my local BCA car park is full of various Taxi company cars there for the quick £100 profit brigade, There would be more Taxi if they could park but the amount of 15 year old Sprinters with RO, SL, L on there reg plate there leave them no room to park

clean both surfaces with some sort of rubbing alcohol, It cleans and evaporates then try, This should work, Failing that Gorilla glue dont do as i have done in the past put so much pressure on the mirror to the glass that you end up cracking the glass with the force you are using to stick it, The air was blue that day

If he has arranged the funds himself, Its a cash sale to you -
yeah i was thinking that .................. so its no longer low to high in searches AT Quotes A new sort order in search The first improvement, launching on the 19th August, is an exciting new relevance-based search sort order. This moves away from our current price low-high search sort order and brings in a new relevance-based approach, saving car buyers time by showing search results more relevant to them. Not only is this great news for car buyers, but it is designed to deliver retailers more engaged buyers, quicker; in testing the total number of leads delivered to retailers increased by 10%.2

Help with a sticky Insignia
Blenheim Car Sales replied to Blenheim Car Sales's topic in General Dealer Chat
its at "great price" on the AT pricing chart, I know its only a guide, But is it supposed to be a new shape that the price tracker is thinking my car is, When i look at other cars the headlamps and fog lamps look different so does anyone know if this is the "old shape" and its last of the old shape ?? -
Not my usual thing, is this possibly the last of this shape ?? and could its reg be shared with the new shape ??? .................. i think it is the case as this car is just getting no hits at all, If its last of the old shape i have it to expensive Elite Nav with 97k on it at £5295 https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201905298436796?keywords=NAVIGATION&year-to=2014&sort=price-asc&model=INSIGNIA&fuel-type=Diesel&make=VAUXHALL&year-from=2013&advertising-location=at_cars&transmission=Manual&postcode=wv22az&aggregatedTrim=Elite%20Nav&maximum-mileage=125000&body-type=Hatchback&minimum-mileage=90000&price-to=5500&onesearchad=Used&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=New&radius=60&page=1

What Camera do you guys use for taking best photos?
Blenheim Car Sales replied to Ray RNS's topic in General Dealer Chat
remember its part camera part setting, lighting and angles for a good pic -
interested in how long you think you may have to allow for advertising / marketing this 18-20k car that is it seems the only one you will be having to start, I think the buyer of a 20k car will be fairly switched on and i do believe he will instantly catch on you are not industry experienced and you may find you are learning the ropes on a 20k car you own for 6 months and will have spent £800 advertising and because of book drops you will loose some thousands of pounds in price realignments over that 6 m period sounds easy our game there are thousands that have tried and failed with far more experience than you, Not wishing that on you its just not easy, look at all the moaners we have on here who are struggling and only just surviving, Its not something with all my experience would choose to do on my own as a start up, I truly believe you have at least a 2-3 year vertical learning curve before you even start to know what you are doing

Some of us run LTD company and if the company owns it and you are running it then technically its a company car, The 5 year old MB that was 50k when new and you purchased for 12K is actually a very expensive company car

False bidding by auctioneers
Blenheim Car Sales replied to TangoVictor32's topic in General Dealer Chat

£1000 then they have 1000 good reasons to complete there purchase

Are newer DSG boxes still bad news?
Blenheim Car Sales replied to tradegirl's topic in General Dealer Chat
need to be careful in my experience as they dont die instantly they die a slow death, so you can be buying a PX thinking it is fine only to fine it has intermittent issues, Should always plug your £2000 diags in and read the codes even if there are none showing, Its usually the monotronic units that fail as people miss the 40k gearbox services, Reason they miss it is that its around £240 just for gear box service, One sign of pending doom is a small very subtle shunt when selecting drive and setting of, It should be seamless, I tend to stay away from anything over 80k on DSG front as already mentioned its crazy expensive if there is issue -
