  1. And it's not just motor trade then . Or diesels every business is slow just now I'm told
  2. I know motor trade insurance has been covered here many times before but not this question mostly just people asking what cover is needed etc but as some stage I'm looking to maybe advance the business my insurance is taken up by a broker think insurance and sure the policy is with trade wise with 2 names on it for both social domestic and pleasure and motor trade my question are there motor trade policies still available for any employee of the business etc a few ex employers had those one even had one which said it covered any friend relative employee or associate-under mr boss mans permissions for both social domestic and pleasure and motor trade use this was years ago though so don't think you well get polices like this so much now though I guess you can get anything if you pay the money he was a millionaire lol and wouldn't have believed it had he not given me the policy to tax a garage car one day wonder if there still out there and recommendations for company that will provided any driver cover for motor trade and let me name social domestic and pleasure drivers

  14. Yes nacman that was my point buddy . Hope your doing well all the best
  15. I do agree with you probably about £1000 is as low as you can go in an ideal world im just saying I've know friends and business associates to sell with £800-900 profit not every day but maybe on a car when you realise say you maybe paid to much for to start which does happen on the odd occasion or wont shift not every car also bear in mind as as a home trader overheads etc wont be as high i remember speaking to an associate who works for and is well contacted to a large car dealing group and he told me they will sometimes do it just to keep stock turning over As i said i think your aim between £1200-£1500 but some times it cant always happen and some sort of profit is always better than a loss
  16. Seen some dealers sell for about £800 -£900 profit but only on some cars the aim as you. Say is about £1200 -£1500 though a lot of the big dealer groups are looking to profit it between 2-2500 k on ex motabilty stuff ive followed 2 recently that were knowing missed one and seen the other in auction but was a bit over priced id known both cars since new
