The other one is rental cars - I used to share an office with a franchised car rental company and it was common practise that they would run cars over the agreed mileage limits and then before any event that would lead to mileage being recorded - service, MOT etc..., a man would come in and adjust the mileage back to a suitable level for the contracted mileage. These cars would be happily sent off to the block for the unsuspecting bidders.

We did a piece on this recently, it should still be on the website if search for it, or check out http://btrprep.com - the guy to speak to is Tim Ashton.

Have a look at Glenside Finance - they will look at real sub prime stuff. Can be a little bit of a process tho but might be worth a try if you are struggling to place the customer

NEW WEBSITE GONE LIVE THOUGHTS PLEASE
Jon Hickey replied to basildon car sales's topic in General Dealer Chat
Nice new site Danny, only one thing that I would pick up on outside of the other comments - the main picture of the site you use, is centred on a different site offering guaranteed car finance, and your site if off to the right, almost in the background - the other site and their phone number are in the prominent position. Might be worth a new picture of just your site? -
Update to date - sale will be on the 27th

I believe we are aiming to get the cars to BCA Blackbushe for the 26th but I will double check - great opportunity to diversify your stock mix.......

Buying from private sellers - advice needed
Jon Hickey replied to JKG's topic in General Dealer Chat
Have you taken a look at Tootle? They are in essence a broker service between private sellers and trade buyers - no sign up fees so well worth a look. They also tell the customer what the likely value of their car is to a trade buyer, based on CAP clean money so this should take away the surprise that their car is not worth retail money to a dealer -
If you can wait a couple of weeks, we are running DMS feature in the next edition of Car Dealer, talking to the likes of Dragon2000, CDK, MDF, Gemini etc.. Hopefully this will give you a good idea of who has the right product for you
