    Lucas should be admired for his tenacity and desire, you can’t help but be enthused by someone who has the balls to make it happen.

    He came with no attitude, a language barrier and asked for help, he’s making it happen for himself with repeated big thanks to us for the help. 

     

    Absolutely AD. Where’s Lucas ?

    As I am just starting out I don't want to spend a lot on a website initially.  Everyone I spoke to wanted to charge me between £400 and £50,000 for a website!  So I thought bugger it and made my own!  As I am only going to have a few cars for sale initially the admin should be manageable and as I grow I can add additional pages for each vehicle I have for sale.  Eventually I hope I can get a professional site created but for now I think this will do the trick!  Only took me an afternoon.  Did it in Wix.  Have a look and see what you think.  I would welcome your feed back and comments for improvements and additions!

    Many thanks!

    You must of found a good auction if cars were going for trade money. Where is it? Every auction I attend or any car I bid on always ends up £500 + over trade price.

    never have time to sit in them or do any checks. The drivers unlock,get in and drive it through. I look on it as being a professional gambler. Some you win, some you lose. I’ve never looked at paperwork before auction starts. I shouldn’t think my auctions would like that. I’d advise to buy private like the bloke in the DM. He bought an Audi TT for 1100 and had it up for 3850 an hour later. Now that’s the way to do it.

    That’s how they do it £2750 in few hours.

    Well they're not legally obliged to provide customer parking, its a privelege. And if you aren't happy you can always buy online from the comfort of your own home?

    It was the same last week to be honest. I don't mind a walk, where's the nearest public car park there, at the station? 

    Paddock wood station car park, station approach, tn126er.

    Need a trusted mechanic Carlisle area if anyone can recommend? sold a Jimny a couple of weeks ago, customer rang to let us know gearbox has packed in, the garage has quoted a fortune to the customer, it’s only got 20k miles on the clock and it’s an elderly lady, We’ve said we’ll get it ourselves and bring back to South Yorkshire but if anyone is local before we do, please let us know, thanks, David

    If the turbo has gone it can be repaired and she will be driving it. So even if you film her today or tomorrow its too late. 

    You're only chance is if you can get cctv from when she drove out. 

    Get cctv to prove Car not in garage as she claims

    We signed up to autotrader two months ago and couldn’t be more underwhelmed. We survived on eBay, CarGurus and Facebook before on the assumption that people look on al platforms and to be honest I’m regretting convincing my business partner to try it. I say survived. We do bloody well without.

    People always look on all platforms
