Yup, George is ya man.....just fitted a new suction motor to mine after 9 years hard graft, parts easily available and easy to work on

I'm informed the classics market is on it's arse, even blue chip stuff is going backwards at a rate of knots....it was prior to C19.

Luxury..... Yup

Main agent I deal with does commercials too, any vans, good, bad and the ugly are going off to Ireland....the buyer there can't get enough and isn't at all fussy and, I mean buys anything.

Personally I think all the guides are way off, retail IS the new CAP clean

.....they won't though will they, soft targets only, they really do, its why the serials offenders still are, well, serial offenders. I may of mentioned before, when we were on the south coast, there was notorious (locally) private 'trader'......... Everything worse in a cliché pikey rolled into one very nasty package indeed....ran loads of Gumtree, Facebook and Ebay accounts mostly as private, very occasionally as trade. Been doing it for years, still probably is, his idea of customer comebacks was just simple physical threats, bricks thru windows or good honest house burnings, I shit you not. His return rate was incredibly low... ....in all the years I knew him he actually rarely had proper grief with the 'ooforytees'....possibly due to putting one TS bod in a headlock and launching him out into the road....a 24 carat nasty piece of work, no idle threats there. Even the plod were reluctant to deal with him. Don't get me wrong, this guy may of sounded like a simpleton but, he was as sharp as the lines on a MK1 Golf, knew his way around the judicial system, especially Travellers rights/ racial rights etc, great on IT, bloody good on the tools too. Apparently pulled the popsies like Pacific Class steam Locomotive too. .....that said a very helpful guy if you were stuck at auction broken down, first one lying under a car in a puddle.....maybe just a hatred of whinging punters so, not totally without a certain flair

Myself and others have had similar experiences, they most definitely are doing the rounds. Better safe than sorry

Have you got a 2m reach

Yup, typical Joe Public culture.

I hear some handovers are conducted in the service area of some main agents....it's bit of a grey area. Although some do have white walls as well.

Car sales just keep giving when it comes to VAT. The amount generated across one unit if it goes thru four pitches after the new car VAT, good earner. It does seem odd that VAT included used anything I guess?

Wow, a slushbox i10, never had one yet, that should fly out the door

Same here, I've had the odd answer of "yes but I prefer yours" "yes, and I'd prefer to live in Buckingham Palace but, don't have the money for that either"

This

Here, here

Plus one

I think the government lost a lot of the populations support when driving to check eyesight and, shagging your mistress went not only unpunished but, also defended.....can't wind the clock back on that.

Had a few boats, gym membership (piss taker) and the offer of a tropical fish set up.....one owner from new though to be fair.

You only need one TS's bod too, 10k, boom

I don't believe that is the case, private sales of goods are allowed.....'sensible discretion' must be used when travelling, what ever that means.

This Lawgistics are incorrect, again. It's all on the gov website.

PSA and FIAT/Chrysler merger, what no mention? Pug, Citroën, Vauxhall, FIAT, Alfa, Masa, Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth....
