It's me

im sparticus

you were lucky to get it back as they wont take a motor traders policy as proof of insurance did you recover it away?

£15000 seems to be about right for one of these it would be cheaper to buy some narrow guage rail and a small steam train and drive round the car taking pictures dont forget the whistle though ,customers love whistles

If you ain't got me peace of mind - ask alfie this is my mantra

i totally agree you can always tell a prospective sale by the fact the main question is, is it still for sale?,i never get asked best price from these people and when they turn up when they say they will its a privilege to serve them and i tell them so and thank them for the sale

think of an old mk2 cortina with a twinchoke nailed on and no airfilter so it makes the slurping noises that annoys the neighbours roll forward 6 months and wonder why engine flumng and down on compression hint the filter didnt filter

sorry never heard of them

skoda octavia the guillotine boot model

i used to put a british flag on the boot of all the ones i sold,they were very cheap from maccess,then i realised i was spending my inheritence so stopped,i get three uses out of the floor mats these days too

whats up with 'you buying or looking yawl' but changed into english comes out hi, were you just having a general look or were you thinking of buying today this way you've introduced yourself and given them an opportunity to tell you their position in relation to their needs if they have any,it works really well and you weren't being pushy like that hopeless assistyant in currys chasing youi round

totally sensible nick its like telling your competition how much you have in a particular motor i understand you came here for the reason the useless autotrader forum was shut i tried it and it was full of crap,this is why i came here its open there is a section for trade only why dont you and epv go there if it so concerns you,frankly i get tired of people leading other people up a path of their choosing ,not mine,that is why i work for ME

why dont you just start your own messenger forum and those that want part of your wisdom can go there rather than keep ramming your 'i want everything private on here mantra' ive said it before but will repeat the forum is as it is because its open, this way fresh blood can come in gain experience and hopefully put something in ive never been a left leg, up tickle a jelly and be part of the masons

me too i hate closed shops never been a union man

i still miss the ding -ding as you drove over the line and he came out with his oily rag .ready to check your oil .pump your tyres and give personal service oh and the petrol was 71 pence a gallon the time i go back to

if it was at the block would you buy it if so how much if not why not etc if you don't want it tell him you've spent your budget for the next 6 weeks but might consider in on consignment i rarely buy a car back for a double bubble

most of them dont work or are from the eighties

i prefer faracla g6 its a £10 on ebay delivered paste in a tube

apparently you can put it on the brakes too if they squeal theres no end to how good wd40 is is there

just sit on the bonnet there as you tell the customer what a lovely car it is ive no idea what you will do about the 4 bald remoulds though

I advertise two keys but keep schtum if only one its only been a deal breaker once and i didnt like her moustache anyway

have you considered the title for ebay? n0 heres one Asia Rocksta,looks like Willys Jeep 1945 lookalike watch those shorts and sandals jump up when this hits them under £26000 willys jeep,yes you can be that rock star too for only £3995 sometimes i have to do the job for everyone

brilliant thumbs up

no mate no need for it i have the blue plastic blade im not paying 60 notes for a lump of metal

the car in question on this thread is 4.8L 7 series! 10 years old with 128k do you seriously believe that this would get thrown out, have you been to the small claims court? what do you think trading standards would do to your business if you told a customer his 8 week old car had broken due to age related items ie the reason he bought the car was because this engine should have another 100,000 miles life left minimum,

left hand right hand use this as your mantra and you dont need to go to the smoking sheds to talk remember we all had to start somewhere if daddy didnt provide so any people looking in theres a vast amount of honest knowledge on here and i prefer it that way im on a couple of dark websites for mechanical/electrical help and help given but we are members across the world not just the uk and the help we give each other on there helps us to stay ahead of a wally who thinks all the answers are on youtube if his engine light comes on i willingly give advice to anybody in this trade if they ask and are willing to use the advice,i always give people 2 strikes and im out mind
