Brilliant programme

A few radio ads about the benefits of using a debit card including charge backs.....appealing to the person who doesn't line the card companies pocket......just drives away the business es to sign up.... who are these idiots whom come up with these bright ideas, you couldn't make it up.

Or a VAT inspection, could of been costly

No, made in US

James, many thanks for getting the forum up n running again

Add Volvo, Kia, Hyundai, Scooby

Got off the dog to a mate of mine has an ongoing drama at Bedford (?) BCA. .... when collecting a 16 plate Focus with low miles.....with the not so rare air cooled engine, 7k car broken engine.....computer says no attitude from the staff to the point where he is going legal now......he isn't the sort to piss about, broke a tooth on a sandwich from ADSA and went all the way wheb they shrugged it off, it's sport for him. Ironically he has a stocking loan thru BCA, or at least I think he has still....not sure how this is going to go.....fucked and blatantly misrepresentated BCA car, bought by BCA .... yes I know its not that simple

FFS if this puka, BCA are getting ridiculous now.

Really, please expand on that gem

Mate of mine has a 5 series bought new from Beemer Tring.....yes they sold him a monkeys worth of paint protection.....got a huge bird burn in the roof.....turns out the all singing ceramic/high tech/hard as nails doesn't cover anything that marks the paint.....like bird shite.....go figure. ....it's hard enough to get customers to stump up for something useful like a decent warranty, can't see the paint being any easier. Gap insurance always worth it but again many won't take it....go figure?

Few years back snowy winters day I bought a Megane cabby out of Peterborough on a Friday for a song, collected on a Monday, nearside front parked up against wall.....yes I know.... Drove it out, whoopee good box, nice car. Put fuel in it, coming back across forecourt, treated to the sight of nearside front bumper corner split right in two with smashed foglight hanging out like some comedy joke glasses.....got no where with that.

If you are selling them at 600 over buying in price I'd say, you aren't making anything across the bonnet, probably going backwards.

Will do again I think, greed n fright, supply and demand.....nothing changes.

Don't buy a seat, there are some fantastic upholstery guys about and silly cheap usually..... .....but... .....they are up there with painters for being pissheads and ern, interesting people so need stroking.

If they close, watch stock prices increase

Ehh? A lot, nay most, main agents have a policy of all pxs going to auction, unless the car fits their own retail requirements with regards age, mileage and stock profile.

Wow, excellent solution, good tip sir ....King Edward or Marris Piper

Yes, correct, little known part of auction buying.... I've had colleges not buy cars became of the "what if that one comes" and they would be over spent. I 'usually' find if it don't come within the hour, well then there are gold bars in the boot. ..... end of 1/4 gets some good results but not too practical to buy that way

This x10000000000, been there, got the t shirt, cap and scars N this too.

And owners

Bought one car this week, been bloody hard work again. .....my spies tell me even fewer new cars being sold, less business being done = fewer pxs about = continuation of high stock prices. ....if we see another lockdown the prices are going to go double mental.

Joe Public will walk past a car with full main dealer history, freshly belted if the next one is a few quid cheaper....most are penny wise and pound stupid.

What about it, I'm all ears.

VISA?
