A packet of extra strong mints is cheaper than having the leccy fire on but you have to suck each mint for half an hour to make one packet last a day on painting the floor do not buy off passing paint sellers ive got some do diddly in the back of me van as it usually doesnt dry as they dont give you the hardener for it if painting floor depending on thickness it can easily take 5 days to dry and dont do what i once did and paint myself into the wrong corner

good post my only caveat is always give them a drive first no matter how mint,i had one last week all ready and on the pdi test drive the clutch slipped

ah ha but they dont know who we are with only trade plates showing as the letter they sent us all weeks ago proves this is why my trade plates cover the original numbers double whammy back of the net i wonder how many traders still dont have their plates on the mid though?

Glass's FREE Monthly Market Report - November
It's me replied to Ben at Glass's's topic in General Dealer Chat
the dacia is just a clio without the bits that go wrong personally never bought one but i recommended a customer buy one for his business and hes more than chuffed with it -
i fail to see how you can drive a car with the trade plate in the window especially on a manky day as the windows steam up keep a half hearted conversation going with a customer that farts and ask for the sale as you nearly go through a speed camera at 34 mph and the trade plate doesnt come wizzing off the dash and cut a gonad in half ive never been a fan of plates in car windows and it was never legal anyway so mine stay over the original plates as per

yes otherwise customers abuse you i find

had this done to me i can tell you have far back it was because it was a 1600 onion ghia usual problem diff drop no speedo,sold by what i thought was an honest trader friend this is why from that date onwards i always swore never buy from trade and occasionally ive let my guard down taken in a sob story and taken another lemon off a trader

dont buy a chocolate clutch via tinternet ive had plenty of cars this last 5 years where you strip the box down and clutch plate looks perfect even though it was patently slipping
-
so to summarise i have a car at work that has an invoice in the glove box for new tyres fitted in 1932 should i write in my advert new tyres fitted with invoice to prove?
-
this all comes back to pdi and a watertight invoice personally selling as service history with no back up is just asking for a trading standards visit with their lanyard swinging on their goolies
-
to add to this ASC write everything down now that has been done what you are going to do etc with all times dates etc you can always have a wedding with such stuff later if it doesnt go to lba

yah!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sell him a car and place a trout under the back seat http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107050/

Your failing to grasp that a walk in pays more bills,ive had a walk on this morning who.s left a deposit i see it as free advertising and more importantly it was also a referral from a friend of theirs who suggested they came to see me for a car for their son,this is the second referral ive had today,madness to say i would lock the gates 80% of this job is a wait and see game so you spend your time as best you can where the stock is because customers who phone from adverts have short attention spans and need immediate attention when they arrive vis an advert,hell some might as well have a flashing light on their heads saying im here i here the traders who prefer to spunk up at the auctions but who are always on the phone are full of bullshit unless they have someone at base who can deal there was a post yesterday about service history/paperwork etc in a locked office well that pitch may as well shut and the guys get jobs unless it was one of those money fraud pitches that cleanses cash so didnt really want the mushes money

somebody asked me for a tank of petrol and some mats the other month that mike brewer has some questions to answer sometimes

ive never spent more than £100 on a jump pack and was always frightened of getting them nicked and obviously borrowed and abused whilst away with it (can i just borrow that mate to start my aeroplane kind of guys) anyway my solution is to take a new battery just fitted off the focus i scrapped take the short jump leads off a failed jump pack get some battery clamps and fit these to the battery,place a stick with cable ties through the carry handle secure with tie clips and attach the crocodile clips to the wood so they dont short you are now ready to sit a proper battery in any car and can leave it there usually while you crank till the cows come home
