    When i first started few years ago i had a small pitch i used to shut the doors and go away. The same shit will be here when your back so why worry about it. You need some time off do not marry the job.

     

    kind regards

    To  be fair i dont know why your stressing if the customer is becoming a pain after 6 days do you really want headache for the next 6 months. Im guessing its a petrol bmw there always have a shake my guess new injector will sort it. Nox sensor is quite common on them too. I know this because all i sell is bmws. My advice same as umesh and few others Give the customer back the refund get the car back repair it start for next 5 days every morning from cold and test drive and resell it to a customer who wont be a pain.

     

    Kind Regards

    I hate capitals, but that comes from working at a hard of hearing charity where capitals were seen as shouting.

    Better than the old site, nice and modern clean looking, easy to navigate

    However you don't have any images of your actual cars on the home page which i think is essential, otherwise it just looks like a generic car site, I would personally put a slideshow/carousel of a section of your stock running length ways across the site, in the place of the 'our partners' logos 

    Also at the moment your slogan is 'BASILDON CAR SALES, SPECIALISE IN GERMAN CARS AND HAVE IN HOUSE FINANCE FACILITIES

    That is not grammatically correct

    BASILDON CAR SALES, THE SPECIALIST GERMAN CAR DEALERSHIP 

    or

    BASILDON CAR SALES, SPECIALISING IN GERMAN CARS AND VEHICLE FINANCE

    I'd personally leave out the finance part and keep it simple, something like: 

    BASILDON CAR SALES, SPECIALISING IN GERMAN CARS

    thats temp text will all be changed on monday that site was launched in rush as autotrader site went dead

     

    thanks for the reply

     

    kind regards

    firstly rory 25 cars since february i think if we done 25 cars since february we would have closed shop by now hahhahaha.

    Hi mike iv been watching this post and reading all the comments and frankly half of what you say does not make sense.

    People on this forum are here to help you they try and better you not the opposite. How can you not justify the trade plates cost simply how its like £200 or under of the year you rather put cars in your name add a extra owner and tax them thats some rubbish mentality of thinking. Also selling cars sold as seen mate seriously are you for real ? 

    you don't give customers warranties 

     

    not to be rude but its people like you who F*** the job for motor traders on this forum who do the job properly such as prep a car check them warranty etc etc 

     

    good luck with what you do no doubt you will realise everyone was right on here

    your site looks more suitable for £2995 and less to be honest.too many cheap banners ,pictures taken with a compound in the background that looks like a scrap yard

    you are selling image cars rather than cars to get you to work so image is everything or lifestyle if you prefer or hankering after that lifestyle seeing as you want to push the finance

    get rid of those tacky autosmart mats they are good in worn out shitters at £695 0no only

    sort the issue with leanders now because it would stop me dead from going further into your website

    can you not work from a better site? im sure you dont need main road frontage?

    As said before website is in design process with blue sky few more weeks until it's ready unfortunately will do website spell check today and regarding the site main road site is inportant to me as I do get a few passer buys a month. I need to build a photo area but seriously don't know where or how to start.

     

    regarding the auto smart matts what shall I replace with ?
