its about £900 fully comp and black boxed up for a 17 year old girlie in a c1 putting a minor on a motor trades policy is madness those dual controls would be very difficult to be approved if fitted via a third party,i wouldn't retro fit for anyone,if they are that bad at driving let the driving instructor have the coronary that's what they are paid for

some deep recessed wheels you cant get in to weld an old wheel nut on the end because the gas from the torch stops the welding process however heat from the torch can help to loosen the nut obviously knock seven bells out of it first this is where gloves and goggles come in too or let tyre bay do it

i think a ductor heater might be better,they are now down to £200 direct from china thanks regards dynomec but like everything else i seem to buy i use it once and it ends up in the cupboard of tools not used,i note its made by that sheffield company and to be fair they are good at sending replacement parts out at a cost but some things feel like they were made to break (fiesta void tool)

or guy goes to auction a fellow traders trys to leg him into a lemon he doesnt buy it but instead buys one from the rostrum and gets his leg lifted by fat harry the auctioneer he drives it out and finds its got a leg out of bed goes to the garage with it and finds it shut because his wife has legged it with the chief mechanic he goes to pub and gets legless moral of story? open a charity shop and search the pockets of donated clothes for hidden wonga or look for hidden drawers in old chinese furniture for hidden gold

best of luck with mcgard types it took 8 hours to remove 4 6 months ago and i have every tool possible to remove them,had to gas axe them in the end thus damaging the paint on the wheels,looks like they had never ever been off and all dealer had done was look through the rim and say brakes ok, for every lie he stamped in on a similar note car came in yesterday over 11 months mot and the back brake pipe is beyond a disgrace and they havent even scraped it to assess for the mot

i cant top that

wear safety glasses and thick gloves better still see if local tyre bay do a removal service

hi orreli motors this link is out of date but its certainly good to read through so you have an idea where you and the customer stand https://www.blackburn.gov.uk/Trading%20standards/SecondHandCarDealersGuidance.pdf its from the govt site so should be free of fairies nuts and dairy produce just to remind,its out of date but a good grounding welcome by the way and good luck with your new chosen profession would i offer a warranty? depends what im selling thus what type of warranty remember if working from home an ex customer might turn up on your doorstep with a claim at the most inopportune time,this is why i dont/ havent worked from home for yonks
