Where do you source your cars from? I'm looking for alternatives
justina3 replied to Karl B's topic in General Dealer Chat
Ok lets be honest about this, if anyone had a cheap source of cars or a particular day auctions seem cheaper than any other day would you honestly expect them to give that info away ? -

Maybe a silly question but wouldn’t it be less grief to get bca to put it one of there lorry’s and get it delivered. -

You wont find anything cheap in Blackbush i presume they have put you on a silver account there are people there who have a huge buying advantage who will be able to give almost close to retail and make the money up with added value of a lot and finance packages ect. but good luck he who dares and all that.

Second shout for george parts are also ten pence of the shelf, mine feels like triggers broom had so many bits replaced but its still the original machine. Takes a right beating as well the poor thing.

We used to use a garage and the owner was a right git, tried bending the testers arm to pass this and that all the time, the tester had enough one day and handed in his notice on his last day had another mate of the owner come in 4pm for his test and he also was a bit of a bully so the tester ticked almost every advisory he could the print off was almost 15 pages long put it in the car and left.

Every single time i use someone knew which is quite rare these days for such reasons as the op is now going through. Belt and braces is in our blood, another issue of not being on the ball a friend of mine employed a brick layer the brickie dropped a trowel from the scaffholding and hit someone below very nasty accident turns out the bricklayer used a false utr number to obtain employment now the main contractor is getting it in the neck hse and insurance company all over him brickie gone to ground. Acts of god as the insurance companies like to call them happen all the time.

That’s very wise fault code reading will tell you everything you need to know and more about the car, feel free to come back to us with the fault codes. Dont rush into anything show them you know what your on about try and drop subtle hints you won’t be walked over, I like to write things down so nothing gets forgotten about silly as it may sound but my Subaru pen gives an alert sales person a clue I know about cars just saves him making a fool of himself trying to waffle me. Good luck -

As above stats mean almost zero, one thing you mentioned that i did pick up on. " This is just going to be a side business for me. Mainly because I enjoy working on cars and cleaning them up etc. " Once you start dealing with customers and suppliers trying to shaft you from all angles that will soon fade very quickly. Also maybe look up some posts from Mrv and Lucas and see the trouble they had starting out, good examples of just how hard this game really is.
