Here’s how to avoid SOGA and make money selling cars
Casper replied to Wheelerdealer1's topic in General Dealer Chat
Calvin owns a few business models he owns the car buying shop as well a long with his brother which he was offering franchises for also a clothing brand naff co and binca also has a retail site as well as the auction one I guess its similar to a lot of traders on ebay selling with no warranty px etc I've seen a few do this i suppose unsure of the how it would work though if some one paid 5k for a car and it went bang . As i would think although no warranty is offered sales of goods act would still apply .. -

We used to remove the seats on the smiley transits steam cleam them and dry them at the space heater repaint the wood panelling etc and steam clean the van interiors they came in every 3 years- 5 years from the local painter and decorator company infact I just remembered a fire damaged one that we savaged for parts from the same same company guess someone gut runs on a skirting board or something .

Just be honest there nothing worst than a customer trying to make up faults. Etc to get money off for example if someones comes in say they have £2600 for a £3000 car but its only worth £2600 because there friend said this or that or it has a small age related mark etc id be like its £3000 where as if someone came in said they liked the car but could only afford £2600 id work with them looking at days cars been in stock what we need out it etc -

I agree To be fair does have a good business which has been trading for a number of years I've looked at cars from her before and vans as leasing looked liked an option at one point for a non motor trade business i was involved in at the the time but Was cheaper in the long run buying cars at a year old which in the long run worked out cheaper cause after the 4 year period the cars still had as value and could be sold on as 5 years with above average miles without paying the premium per month due to the annual on the lease .though I've a friend who leases his cars every 2 years and insists he can find better deals online than ling could match he's had a couple of good deals so far in-fact we actually bought one of his return cars from bca .
