  1. hi have you tried a miniductor to remove hail dents and if you have what do you think of it? thanks
  2. you forgot to add that on the day its supposed to arrive they always come at least an hour late and usually give no apology unless pushed this is why i keep their car all day and sometimes overnight too,its just my way of punishing them
  3. you've offered it for sale so they could look at it remember these people are not nice people if you rub them up wrong this is why i have a strict policy of offering nothing for sale unless its ready the dealer was selling poor maintained cars he was due a tickle anyway but they do sometimes go on the look occasionally (TS)
  4. with regards customers cars and repairs its always wise to book them in and advise customer you will require the car all day,this stops phone calls and also if it is paid work and they think you have worked on it all day they feel they are getting their monies worth with regards advertising cars not ready for retail then you only have yourself to blame don't do it is the simple answer and if its not valeted its not pdi i assume so if trading standards see it advertised and do a spot check and find fault you could be for the high jump seen it on a local pitch just saying
  5. just do the ebay ad spares repairs and see if it goes at £250 you say this was the cream on the cake so wipe it off its gone off
  6. who would buy a Bmw 2011,100k.......cost over 6k and not hear it run then get a 3rd party to rape it to your door oh you did lesson learned? the bell was ringing on requiring a dmf before you pushed da button oh well leave it in the gateway so you see it every morning to cheer you up
  7. i would of only taken it in chop if the battery looked newish i likes big ford batteries eyes does
  8. black box means more power means boom baby
  9. hi i changed my mot station a few years back because of this i suggest you do the same as some testers eventually get jealous that you are earning more than them is my guess just like council workers who seem to all have a chip on their shoulder
  10. thanks i like a laugh but i really hate reading all this playground swearing
  11. i would be afraid of a knee capping and Davy Freeth kicking my door down
  12. let me put it in a nutshell for you how many traders do you know who do the full pdi prior to dropping it off for an mot now these people that dont are possibly going to find dangerous written on their failed cars mot history how will that look as mr peeky boo checks the cars history prior to purchase i am the same person who moaned that previous mot garages are now not listed on the mot history an mot history reads like a book to those that want an easy life just saying
  13. cant wait for the new terms that are coming out http://www.lawgistics.co.uk/read-news/1250#sthash.DWOn6SsZ.dpbs
  14. im sure it was 18 words used to spend minutes finding the right words whilst the useless rep took crap pictures and then as you say on the day the photo was totally wrong but you got a free credit happy days
  15. a fiesta mk2 with a 2.0 L pinto in it i took it for a test drive and it spun its wheels in every gear it was wicked but obviously built by a farmer type looking at the pig shit welding i sold it but cant remember to whom
  16. just appraises better or tell em you dont want it its much easier on the ventricles
  17. ive had 3 inquiries today one from dpd looking for mr smith one from the postman asking if the tenants next door have done a runner and another local trader on the cadge the only thing going on is the rent
  18. what i never understand is you get someone keen on the phone( remember them? they are talking and listening devices very popular last century) anyway they are very keen then ask if you are open next sunday
  19. family member wanted one of these thanks for the heads up she aint getting one now guess its the old extended service regime causing chain stretch,never happened on my duplex chained austin 1100
  20. not my p/x but a long standing customer bought a car off me and it was easier to tell them where to drive their old car to the weigh bridge,that way i had no hassle and no extra paperwork for a proper end of life car they told me they had been woken up in the middle of the night by the police because their car had done a robbery turns out one of the workers went home in it that night so my tip is if you drive anything to your end of life centre leave their property with the keys still in your pocket its tough out there and getting worse trust no one
  21. gone to work absolutely no idea why all my cars are the same colour
  22. why? i leave them where they are standing i once kicked a punter out of the car on a test drive because his driving was so bad
  23. the good thing is of course that if you cant sell the axiam as a car you can always take the engine out and use it on your cement miixer
