  1. Bit old school but I liked the night panel on the saabs
  2. The side skirts appear to be on the fiesta st. A couple of screws then rip them off.
  3. @Jamie Edmonds I love the active cruise, it's just a shame you have to press resume once it's come to a standstill. Heated massage seats in the s8 were nice too.
  4. Adaptive cruise on Audis and BMW auto high beam assist lights
  5. The storm troopers helmet .... We have only had two, this being our second. The first one flew out of the door, this one went quick but then the deal fell through. I think the pan roof is probably an essential, we paid £11888 on paper for ours or 1k over book but but in reality we paid £500 below cap clean but it does owe us tyres, mot etc. anyone want to guess how long a 650i will take to move ?
  6. Lost one yesterday, took a deposit on a scirocco, it was advertised as having cruise control ..... But it didn't have cruise control.
  7. There seems to be a lot of it about, a couple of other forums I visit have had side skirts and bumpers stolen from fiesta st's
  8. The wife's new car ..... 100k, full history, sunroof, leather, cam belt change .... Basic nav, cruise control ... £2650
  9. Saturday we had a few phone calls in the morning then nothing .... Sunday we took 3 deposits by phone, one was viewed today and it goes Wednesday, the other is being collected this afternoon and the last one is being collected next Saturday. We desperately need more stock now. The phone has gone silly this morning. the wife will also be getting a new smoker today, we should be taking an a4 auto today as px which should do as a stop gap until I can find her a mini auto or her company agree where their new building is going to be.
  10. The 2nd Amg sold today.
  11. Steve92

    why

    Were you pictured shaking hands over the bonnet of a ford Capri ?
  12. Another 2, including one before we even collected it.
  13. 6 this week, could have been 9 but someone wanted 14k for a golf we could only go to 13.5k on, someone changed there mind on a Panamera couldn't get the figures to stack up on a Maserati unless we dropped it by 5k, and lastly I couldn't quite get someone to put a deposit on a BMW tonight, they want to finance it until 21st because of a house move which we could cope with we just asked for a 1k non refundable deposit, but we would refund it if they failed the credit check or the car was not as described. Does that sound fair ?
  14. Mercedes make you jump through hoops to request a copy, I do like the fact that on the newer BMW's it's stored electronically in the idrive.
  15. It seems people browsing autotrader can now request a valuation for their part exchange simply by inputting their registration number and mileage. This gives them an instant valuation and a cost to change and emails the dealer direct. i've had a trial run this morning using my own car to see what the process is and it seems fairly simple. Is this autotrader a way of becoming cap/glasses ? Has anyone else had customer feedback ? I responded to one this morning who simply replied back saying the price wasn't good enough, but they probably wanted retail for it anyway
  16. Thanks, we'll get the registration complete tomorrow. With regards to the payment dies the money have to physically clear before released or providing the payment has been taken that's enough for the car to be released
  17. I guess it depends on your stock but we use a local company who are a broker. They are called Charles and Dean but do tend to fund more range rovers than fiestas.
  18. 50% of the way through registering with these, although we now have to sign a direct debit mandate to complete the registration. The only other stipulation is you cannot collect them yourself .... Anyone ever found this a problem or is the stock pretty good?
  19. We have just moved inside and it's much better, the cars can be kept clean and you can work on them all night. It looks more professional too.
  20. We picked up a m135i last Friday, took a deposit on Saturday, he collected the 135 yesterday and we took his q7 as px, we advertised that last night and took a deposit this morning, it goes tomorrow. I just wish we had another 5 of them.
  21. Could you not take them to the small claims court ? At the end of the day the car is not as described and regardless of it being a trader or private customer it's been misold
