SC Derby

Great moment.

Good start for me after a slow end to july one yesterday three today !

Anyone else think if they get a 30 day right to refund on our cars due to faults etc that we should get the same on their part exchanges? Fair is fair .

2 today, 4 for the week, got a couple more decent potentials too so better all round for me.

I never bid if I see them go through twice TBH never mind any more.

We've had clutches collapse gearboxs need refurb o2 sensors, rough running cause by leaking oil from sump timing chains knocking from the back and finally a water pump

Thanks, ill try a bottle of that and have a go myself

Got a nice ish Saab 93 Convertible in, but the roof is a bit patchy/faded - anyone recommend a product that could potentially dye/colour it back to its former glory? TIA.

Not sales (yet) but had a good 6 enquiries today, couple been in and said will hopefully be back and the rest for over next few days. Hopefully picking back up then

Dead here Monday/Tuesday. One phone call and he didn't turn up after asking me to 'get it out'.

A family relation had the second one ever registered in the country. Liked the drive, hated the interior. Got rid after 9 months and lost a fortune. Think Jonathan Ross had the first.

Totally utterly dead this morning, then 2 sold this afternoon. Had one person ring all weekend and they didn't turn up!! The real customers/buyers just seem to turn up unannounced tbh.

Two here and couple of collections

No sales today (one yesterday) but had 5 collections in last 2 days totalling about 20k so when that hits it's new stock galore!! Also took in a couple of hopefully decent part exchanges. 2007 Suzuki Swift 1.6 Sport 77k gonna go @ £2990 (very clean example too). 2003 Mercedes A Class 1.4 AUTOMATIC with only 50k on the clock, £1690 including 12 month mot. Hopefully get both shifted on by Sunday

£2480

dead today until just, 1 customer, 1 sale. more customers please

One more this afternoon, 2 customers all day, 100% strike rate.

1 last night 1 this morning.

Definitely dropped off bit.

Thats the rate for the first 4 months, not sure exactly what it goes up to after that but it wasn't much of an increase, the rep reckons it depends how many enquiries you are getting. I wasn't too worried because I can also cancel after 3 months so if it was a silly price I'd just cancel. I'll let you know when the rep comes out to discuss it.

Leave it, can always re-evaluate if a customer moans, but in reality we deal with used cars and they are not perfect are they?

Just sold a 3k Fabia, through Parkers (motors network) to a student from Sheffield. I've been highly critical of Motors in the past but I'm currently paying £185 a month for 30 cars and it's easily justifying the outlay. It seems to be bringing in 2-3 deals a month minimum.

For a recon one mate? Just getting it looked at this afternoon so may well be in touch.

Got into the office, phone rang, potential gearbox failure on Fiesta ST sold last week. Great start to a Monday morning.

Quiet day for us with just one phone call but we sold Civic Type R GT within last half hour so happy with that. still not had a blank day since Brexit!
