Does that mean I can buy then and deliver them upto you to get fixed

Only half an hour in but really enjoyed it so far well done guys!

Is that not what the old pajeros were for?

I’m the opposite, my workshop guys can have anything fixed on these within a few hours! For me it is anything with the powershit gearbox from Ford or the majority of semi autos. As a general rule we try to avoid french cars and petrol 4 cylinder BMW’s. Subaru Impreza 2.5 turbos are also on the banned list. I love them to drive but the engines are chocolate!

I just reply that’s a great deposit and how will you be financing the balance?

Do they sell dummies? Last I heard AD has thrown his out of his pram so he may be on the hunt for another one?

We had this last year with a Kia Sorento, water in fuel light on, new fuel filter and it cured it for a couple of days then light back on. We then dropped the tank and found it to be bright green that looked like shreks piss. Drained and cleaned the tank and all good. Sainsbury’s even paid the bill for the customer too! Thankfully our workshop heater runs on waste oil / diesel so it worked in that and kept us warm for a while

I’m tempted to try it for my track car and see how good it actually is

Do you offer an upgrade option to nitrogen like quick fit?

Thought about buying a dehumidifier? Might work out more cost effective for you.

MarkTVS replied to David Horgan's topic in General Dealer Chat
Quick question here guys, One of my staff whom I do trust, his partner has been in contact with someone who tested positive, both of them got tested yesterday and neither are showing symptoms, now his partner got a phone call telling her and apparently him aswell to isolate for 14 days. Now as far as I can read online he should not be asked to self isolate unless his partner has symptoms which she doesn’t. So if he’s off it leaves the workshop a staff member short and as a result I’ll have to cancel my planned holiday which I’m raging about as I can’t have 2 people off at the one time. Should he have to provide me with any proof of being told to self isolate? Like anything in writing? And does it go as holidays or sick leave? thanks -
I had this last week Dave, a customer with a Bmw x35D brought it in for a juddering on gear change when full throttle from standstill and lack of boost from first turbo, Started with a 26 mile range after a few attempts to replicate the fault i was down to a zero range. It infuriates me, it’s not the having to put fuel in it’s the time it takes to do so, ten minute drive then ten minutes drive back and ten minutes to wait in the que as it’s an m&s garage so always people doing their weekly shop. I feel like adding .5 hours labour to their bill for my inconvenience. x5 turned out to be a poor remap issue, reflashed it to original and it’s all good.

If the range is above 5 miles there’s too much in it but I’m a tight Scottish cun.......

If it’s too good to be true then it usually is.

I really want this car, I don’t want to leave a deposit but can you keep it for me till Christmas?
-
It’s kind of 6 and half a dozen our bigger truck takes 5\6 cars so if it’s a full load it’s cheaper but that run in the big truck is 2 days due to driver hours and being limited to 56mph, but if it’s just one then we have a single car beavertail which is tacho exempt as it’s under 3.5ton so it can do the same run within 24 hours and isn’t speed restricted. Hopefully going to add a bigger variety of trucks to the fleet as we build our transport side, it’s a fairly new venture for us which we just started to keep our own costs down.
