It's me

reverse the deal as said but whatever you do get them to sign paperwork for time they had car to the minutes in case any nips come through at a later date, because if you dont cross the t's they could come back to hauunt.......whoooooooooooooooooooooooooo

my local POO also make me fill in a new v62 and give me the old v5c back ,i know they are wrong but i just indulge them because they have the sheriffs badge

with regards locking wheel nut removal every car is different and creates its own problems each one has to be appraised individually as to how to approach the worst are renault the easiest are ford the spiral sockets with the left hand internal thread you buy are superb for many cars but i cost one socket into each car and see it as a throaway if it pulls me out of the doo

first rule never advertise anything until its had its full appraisal theres no way you can price it correctly until then because otherwise it ends up too cheap or too dear just my two pennorth of 40 years experiance

this would come under misrepresentation and i would look carefully at the terms of the selling agent as to whether they have a get out clause,even though its a business to business sale this still comes under the scope of the consumer rights act i would sent an lba to the selling agent with a copy also to the dealer and i would pursue it to the hilt,put the car in a corner and make a stand,

How come the 'can you look at this' customers always turn up spot on 11.30 saturday mornings? you can set your clock by them

Glad you got a result but what are the long term implications though? I once bought a car from an independent auction, must be 20 years ago now, i prepared it and had it advertised when auction phoned me to tell me they had let it go £400 too cheap ,they admitted it was their mistake but could i please call in with the difference This was the same auction that let me take a paid for car off their premises but a week later they sent the police to my garage as selling dealer couldnt find what had happened to it an an audit made them put it on the at risk on hpi,i wasnt best pleased and had a heck of a job getting an apology off them Guess what............... this auction is no more and it was a very busy place in its time you cant keep screwing people and expect them to keep coming back These places need their butts kicking

so when do you blow the balloons up then?

Obviously you don't, because otherwise you wouldn't be taxing cars without registering as the NEW owner. I would be interested to know how your insurer views this every time you put one on the MID especially if someone makes a claim against you and car not in your name but you have taxed it With regards your question you need to get on your bike like lamont says and look for somewhere suitable then knock on doors to try and do a deal with the owner

because some customers like to have the assurance of a named warranty company and also you get the banners and balloons i self warrant but its not always easy

Does he charge by the hour or by pot shot and is he free a week on wednesday? free buns supplied

me too you cant even begin to reduce a car price without customer bothering to view because once you've lowered your price they turn up and think they can screw you more its never worked for me i always tell my customers that the price is fixed but they will be certain to buy if tthey turn up because its the best on offer,any real customer usually does turn up then with messers going into the ether, Once they turn up they see you are telling the truth they often never mention price again but obviously you can enhance their package free with gifts to give them a full and happy experiance and often it turns into repeat business over the years as they know they casn trust you

You cant if its in the first month if its due to a fault, you can only charge if customer has a change of heart and you agree to take back less agreed hire terms etc,i got this direct from trading standards just after xmas when i refunded a car but charged hire fees, customer agreed then came back after trading standards rang him again to confirm he was happy and until then he was ,but then came to see me for this hire money back,i rang trading staNdards got a case number to prove i had done everything right and was not prepared to pay him this money back,i sent him recorded delivery telling him to take me to small claims if not happy where i would defend and be looking for a counter claim and the post office lost it so had to send another recorded delivery and claim compensation from post office,i eventually got back 6 stamps,never heard from him again but he probably hates me

make sure you drive private sale cars, we used to buy on viewing only to find there was no clutch even though it felt fine on their drives if you can run an advert in your local area 'we buy cars for cash, collect today' hpi afore ye go and double check for clones it can be worthwhile when these cars usually turn up to be in peoples way because they thought it was worth more than they were offered previously,always kick them when their down too

to be sure if its still there the bells should be so loud you think you have tinitusk sparky...at least you didnt find the carrier under the seat with a used nappy in it like i once did

Refund and retail again, it makes for a smoother less stressful life in the long run, we don't need these people we really don't

Sorry to hear you are leaving but its in your blood now so maybe you will be back full throttle maybe a couple more years from now All the best from me for your future

sorry im new here,what is autotrader again it sounds so last century?

we all have to start somewhere but going to the big boys auction is not the way look to buy from ebay or that bumtree i started out door knocking on cars abandoned by their owners as uneconomical to repair then i got up at 5 in the morning to read autotrader hot off the presses then i advertised we buy any cars before the internet was invented starting at the bottom you have to invent a way to move forward i think the post is genuine and i hope you succeed dylon

i think you missed a bullet,well done

if i go onautotrader as a potential customer with my cookies cleaned it pops a box up asking for feedback try ticking the boxes they dont like and you get told 'thanks but you dont fit our questions' so its biased

buying a s/h car there is always going to be a touchy feely needed by most buyers as unlike brand new there is always going to be somrthing they want to rub or kick prior to doing the deal so im old school.................im out

£1695 ,hes a money launderer

take them out to do the photos,replace once car returned to its sale spot,customers appreciate you are looking after the interior but need to see the floor in your advert to appreciate how clean it is and quality can you make the canopy more appealing and modern for a reasonable amount of cash can you make the drive by experiance A127? more appealing so customers might want to come and view next week and not expect its turned into a hand car wash as lots round me do when banners are used rather than corrugated plastic or abs signage really trying to help by the way
