  1. As far as I understand the rules now if it's within the first 30 days of the date you sold it , the punter has to prove the fault was there at point of sale , after 30 days you have to prove it wasn't there. If you did have to give money back I reckon it would be down to you to collect it it was obviously ok at point of sale or he wouldn't of bought it, my advice ..help him out with in reason , (depending on his attitude ) don't roll over to easy.
  2. 43 cars to get rid of ! Tax man might not see that as a hobby.
  3. really, I can buy one , not had one since the proplems come to light , might be best to swerve it then.
  4. Any one had any problems shifting the Zafiras that could be affected with the catching fire problem, I know it's only the ones with electronic climate control or no air con at all, but you know the public ...
  5. Had the same thing on a 07 diesel focus, limp mode, lights on dash, wouldn't start then it would, ... It was the clock set , common fault on them, had to take clocks out and get a firm to repair them, car was fine after that . mine would not turn over either sometimes
  6. should of pulled his jeans right down, kicked him in the nuts...poked his mother in the eye and set light to his Clio...... To harsh ?
  7. Give the Corsa a swerve mate..Shite engines, I had one a while back spent a fortune on the F*"~ing thing, cut my losses in the end , chucked it in the auction.
  8. how did she get shafted ?
  9. Prefer cash..... We will take a cheque etc, obviously subject to clearing, we do take cards as well , charge punter 3% , normally puts em off using it, there is a cash machine in shop next door to us which is handy so they can go and get their dipper from there. I mentioned the charge back with a credit card as none of us have got a crystal ball , we don't know if a car will go wrong or the punter will turn into a complete aresole, it's just another thing that could cause you a headache.
  10. Lol ..flowers on the seat.... to much ?

  13. I love days like that...wish they was more regular though, down the travel agents today then sir ?
  14. Card machines..... Punter drives off in your car while you got to wait 3 days for funds to clear ... £5000 car they pay a deposit of £100 pound by credit card, they start whinging about car and get totally unreasonable, credit card company can do a charge back and take the whole £5000 off you !
  15. October was ok for us.. September was really quite, November not to bad so far .
  16. The punter has to prove the fault was present at point of sale .
  17. £3500 a month will work out about £40,000 ish a year, so you won't have to register to pay vat. Free Max Branning... Bobby did it.
  18. We've been with Exchange and Mart for a good few years £135 ish a month for all our cars... and we sell cars from it .
  19. It's not all doom and gloom .... when it's good it's the best job in the world ... When it's bad it's bad, and with only a little bit of money behind you when it's bad it could be really bad.
  20. So you was buying as a private man so they would not think you was making money on them ? Did you put them in your brothers name , wait for the log books to come back with another owner on them ? ive bought private on occasion just told em I was trade , no problems
