  1. had same issue, called rep and they said that the car will be live on ebay, but just tells you its not when checking on your portal, not ideal
  2. What if you use a VPN, whatever that’s is, does it make things safe like wearing a condominium?
  3. Appears so. I too share the view of keep calm and carry on. Probably because I’m riding solo with no debt or real need to sell a load to stand still perhaps? those “stay at home cautious” individuals are usually the ones that moan at a creaking door latch and think they can excersize their right to Reject on day 30 because of it so I’m hardly going to miss out on their custom am i
  4. We’ve sold 10+ in last couple years, 3.4/3.6 with no IMS issues pre or post sale. Only big problem was getting a leggy 997 out of BCA with a big engine misfire, turned out to need just a couple engine sensors
  5. Same, thought it was a Qashqai+2, totally pointless
  6. Depends each month. autoraper bill £1000 per month sometimes sell 5 per month from it, £200 per sale sometimes sell more, sometimes less
  7. I’m not sure who’s worst, the seller or the buyer for buying a ‘patched up’ car in the first place
  8. +1 an essential check for me and many could be 3 things! is the engine noisy is the gearbox noisy is the clutch slipping. thats worth more than the F-ing £10er or whatever the (non)essential check costs
  9. I’m hoping you listed the dent on the Pdi if you did one. if you did a Pdi and the dents not listed, you can prove it wasn’t there at purchase. Winner
  10. Really? Thats quite extreme? We’re they on the brink anyway?
  11. He carried out an inspection pre purchase? I’d have that plastered all over the paperwork. It’s as good as sold as seen if so! i love it when they inspect them and then still buy.
  12. call them, they've a dedicated number for spec and history, i know, couldnt believe it either!
  13. This! they are incessant. I might see if AT can block their numbers
  14. Lee’s just told me I’ve got a nakerd box on a MX5 so off to Trents. Any time x
  15. can you call me about it? this is too-impersonal for my liking mate(s) yes it will show the mobile number unfortunately - time to start looking like a chatsworth druggy basically whatsapp web is just a carbon copy of whatsapp that you have on your phone. to access it, type whatsapp web into google, then open whatsapp on your phone, go to settings, then, whatsapp web/desktop, then scan QR code, point it at the QR code on the whatsapp web website, and the laptop website then just mirrors what you see on your phone, it just makes typing and image video sharing so much quicker and easier than squinting and tapping your phone
  16. Hey NOA, I use it on my website, and it routes through to my (one and only) mobile. It's great, customers have enquiried via whatsapp as their first contact and left a deposit after I've given bank details, probably happened on more than a few occasions from memory, I think we should cater for however they want to converse, annoying I know, but sign of the times. I would get a new work mobile number and use whatsapp for your website that way if you really want that separation. and yes, you can use whatsapp on your computer and chat just like an email, it's called whatsapp web and its brilliant. Call me if you want to run anything else past me.
  17. ditto, completely waste of money........and even time if you bother signing up to a free trial
  18. Hi Kieran, Great opening post, quite refreshing considering some of the recent one post wonders that have sought advice and disappered in to the night. Someone will be along soon to recommend an insurance broker who may be able to help get you an under 25 policy, unsure on the dad-element. Responsibilities, yes, you need to read up on/google/learn understand, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 like the back of your hand, but also take note that it differs slightly for the sale of used cars, versus, say, a TV. Probably worth calling a motortrade focused law firm like Lawgistics to have an initial free chat for 15 mins, I'd probably look at signing up to their help for 12 months, and do that, mechanically prepare the cars properly, MOT'ing, rather than say, spend money on warranties. All the best!
  19. quoting 'doesnt matter as it wasnt written on the invoice' and 'exposing you to the media' sounds like he's caught wind of this thread, have it deleted ASAP
  20. the OP suggests it has no VAT purely because it’s a Cat D. Is this a new rule? if so I’m joining Copart tomorrow and buying them all
  21. not on invoice? better ready yourself for a full refund, or be prepared to have your pants pulled in court. oh, and hi, whats your stock profile like? how long have you been trading etc?
  22. Yes they do pay commission but you need to get your customer to follow a dedicated URL that you get given from Zuto. i did two deals, told customer to use Zuto because they were sub prime, forgot both times to give them the dedicated link! School boy. that said, both deals were easy as pie
