  1. the first pdi is the appraisal before purchase then you either transport it or drive it back to your work place,this is the second pdi as you might find niggles on the drive or in my case i look up at the car before i unload it noting anything like bald tyres ,exhausts dents etc once on the floor and washed off the proper pdi begins followed by a full inspection all wheels of all lights checked all doors lock etc ticking the boxes off as you go or noting attention needed once this is all done its ready for an mot that should be a clear pass once back from the mot its a wash again a clean of the tyres a clean of the floor area where your feet have been and then its on to take photos,this is why i always do mot's in the afternoon as hopefully the light is better never give a customer a copy of the pdi as this is your ace if you end up in court but certainly advertise that you have done anyone not doing this should NOT be selling cars IN MY OPINION why? because wheels can fall off cars or propshafts can make bids for freedom these are mechanical contraptions and we all know previous owners are happy to carrying on driving with a balljoint hanging out coz they are swapping it soon
  2. dont lend stock or money to other traders no matter how long you have known them they dont respect what you have done and will do you one way or another best decision is working for me ,i might work harder but i reap better rewards

  13. why not inspect your cars before you take them for the mot i get complete respect from my mot station because cars are fully sorted before they go times money and if you want a discount trade mot then respect the mot mans time and not have him do an extended essay finding all the advisories categories required on the machine as he writes you out a failure chit i left my last mot station because the man with the hat told me he was going to charge me retest fees even though its easier to spot an albatross than me get a failure chit with regards driving a car from the mot station that flags a dangerous the law doesnt change and your insurance is invalid anyway if you did knowingly drive a car in such a condition
  14. worse the guns fully loaded i believe its better to buy from a plc who will idemnify you againt the risk,i know you will only get what you paid and no betterment but its better than getting a letter through the post warning you its going to go all legal if you dont cough up 4g

  19. you usually get to the house and see signs of trading like a wheel in the corner or the gardens built in such a way that theres a fence where they do their dodgy repairs behind etc if its a council estate or whatever they are called these days you usually spy a tattered old recovery truck very near the scenes of crime seen it all
  20. its always been this way though theres an mot garage near me that also sells cars,ive heard they have been taken to court due to dodgy dealings but they still told a customer of mine to buy a car i had for sale but the tester guy who came with the customer then went on to say he would have failed it on a mark on the windscreen even though it was outside the drivers arc he would have loved to have lifted her skirt but i dont need to i prefer the monies
