It's me

I changed mot stations when tester started listing slight corrosion to all underside because its a killed sale Strangely my mot tester now will only write this on a test if I bought him something like a micra from the northeast or a hyundai or say a kia because once they reach 6 years old from a life in Sunderland they are indeed really nasty underneath

The trade plate price has gone up,how very dare them,I tried for a part refund last year and still awaiting a response Annoyed of the North

Is it me or is it impossible to hear correctly what we are saying with the muzzles on Don't get me wrong I'm having the booster this week and to be honest I prefer shopping when everyone has a mask as it stops the great unwashed coughing as they pass you in the shopping centre Comments?

Those are they

Trying to get a budget out of people is nigh impossible as A.... They think you are going to lift their leg B.... They always inflate their budget and then once they have had your time and knowledge and sat in everything you have shown them it turn s out their real budget is nothing like their wish list one C,.... That's here anyway, Its more the other way round at the Moment where budgets can exceed their first expectations if you push them To sort out test pilot s tell the customers pre turning up that they need to bring their driving licences as there is a form to fill in, it's am azing how many turn up with no licence so no drive needed in a normal year and often they still buy anyway because they trust you

Interesting question Most traders Wang the plates in the window so those cars would get fined Dvla say plates should be outside of car but original plate must still be seen so you will probably still be fined Have you considered moving, far easier Sorry no help but what does your great mayor say, are they not the ones to start a conversation with?

Bad day? American express used to be something one aimed to attain as only the big bosses had them,these days anyone can get one and it's just another credit card and not even a cheap one They might want to use it for a section 75 and get cheap car hire from you or they nay be very qenuine Your call

This If you offered a free repair you might as well go busking, maybe a few years ago we would have done the repair foc for goodwill but it's a rare customer these days who don't try to get one over on you and then you never see them again and never get a service or mot out of them

We use the file b system here B=bin Now trot off

talking cartels,ive just had 4 quotes from 4 different plumbers,they all came within £200 of each other,do they all sit in wetherspoons on a saturday morning swapping quotes about

go on the dvla website,see if its showing as untaxed,if it is then it may well be in trade,this would mean you could go up to post office fill in a v62 pay the £25 and tax it ,this way dvla now promise to send a log book within 2 weeks on their new beta system i read today as i new keepered an owner if not showing in trade then the sooner you apply via post then sooner they write to new keeper then tell you when you will get log book and then they send it out second class,got one last week only took them 10 weeks you could try web chat...........shut down last week or you could try phoning,i phoned maybe 50 times last week never got through goodas luckas

dont forget pigs in blankets

basically same here we also try to put only shell in the truck it might be a little dearer but it drives better and gives more economy

im not paying i do it as a service remember most customers still kick up a fuss when you give them just a new keeper slip so its easier on changeover day to tax it once they turn but here ive taxed it 2 days early to give me a peaceful sleep £30 is a lot of money to lose

Have a car here registered to my business a n d I taxed it for the year with my business debit card I sold it yesterday so went online and cancelled the mid and scorned it. After reading this thread I pooed myself because they want it monday So I went online with the new keeper slip and taxed it for them Computer rejected my card Fortunatey it accepted another card I assume this was because you can't use the same card twice? I was afraid they would have to wait 5 days as this happened to me a few years ago For the record webchat was shut down at dvla Friday at least and I spent all day ringing for another car and I never got through Dvla...... Spit......

what annoys me about the emperors new clothes is all my experiance of valuing cars is now worthless

showing as taxed but no log book means you need to fill in a v62 and attach a cheque for £25 wasting your time attaching a v890 sorn as they bin them,make sure if its going into your stock to sorn it when log book comes,be aware this can take 3 months sometimes the cat n one showing taxed means owner or insurance company havent advised dvla of its current status so again you would need to apply to dvla for a log book via v62 untaxed one apply at post offoce pay £25 fee ,pay for road tax and customer will get log book very quickly as bhm says phone dvla to confirm status of all cars ie are they in trade? if they say yes you can go to post office this status can change ie not in trade today but in trade tommorrow so only you can decisde whether to apply by post i tried web chat today for the exact same reason and theyve turned it off 4 weeks ago they turned their phones off great organsisation not

Get off your hoss to metcars this fred seems locked and your private massaging is turned off so here is my message to you hi i dont know what ive said wrong as i was quoting john waynes catchphrase so i agoploise if i upset you or did i miss a yoke

Managed to find some diesel Now should I sell it on ebay

No petrol or diesel in my local garages Need to collect a car and waggon hopefully has sufficient go go to get there and back I see the usual deplorables were in the queue s waiting to brim their ex builder mega mile t5 pieces of junk with the chrome mirrors and still wearing shorts Mummies with glasses on their heads and very very busy who dropped off chloe at pre school and also needs to dump her crapski in the middle of the pumps as she desperately needs a plastic coffee latte from the garage drinks machine even though her own kettle is 200 yards away I've had a customer cancel an appointment because they haven't the fuel to come and view Might as well go home This job could turn one to drink

Now come on be fair you heard the noise of doom but just hoped it wouldn't get worse

Keep all conversation logs email etc in case you get taken to small claims but seeing as unauthorised repairs have been carried out assuming vehicle came with warranty and terms ie no unauthorised repairs without selling dealer consent You would be clear But you haven't stipulated what package came with van if anything so it's possible he could say fault was at time of sale and he tried to have it rectified at his expense but failed so looking to you for compensation So not clear cut im afraid How much to throw him a gearbox?

ive never bothered for 2 weeks now as the place just isnt functioning they've cashed my cheques for out of trade cars but owe me for a car i taxed and then i got an offer i couldnt refuse on it but i never got my tax back i paid in full for the year as i intended keeping it and i saved about $5,55 cents note to oneself use dd in future doh
