    I'll pass on them Mr Trader look to cheap . The Kia is £2,495 minimum , looking at Autotrader its £2,695 average price . 

    Cheap will not sell cars any quicker on most occasions .

    It can bring out the customers that cant really afford it , but it appears cheap so will stretch , BUT when it wants a new Bulb they will haunt you because they cant afford ANYTHING for it . Beware of CHEAP customers 

    So true!

    That's why all my cars are reassuringly expensive..... :lol:

    hi

    if that is your advert redo the photos as it will put many off

    i could just expect you coming out to deal with me  me stuffing a pie and having one of those nasty bity dogs on a lead

    remember people will sit for ages looking at pictures so background friendlyness is very important

    :)

    My thoughts exactly.

    Do you want to rent your unit out to me? I’m looking for a place exactly like you describe. In Kent. Preferably near Bromley. Or in it :lol:

    You could never run a pitch/unit of 12 cars part time. Never. Not on your own. It’s massively time consuming, some days you just end up doing what feels like fuck all. Today was a day like that for me, i’ve done a full day and felt like i’ve done fuck all. The reality is, I sold one, mopped another, photographed and videoed two, bought two online, but i’ve still got another 3 to photo and video, 2 of those will need a mop, I have two arriving early next week, it just goes on mate. I wouldn’t change it mind. Just saying this isn’t a business you can set up and run in the background. It’s not a string to a bow. It’s the bow, all the strings, all the arrows and anything you can hit with the arrows. 

    You’re either conkers deep or you’re not. 

    Thats not me being pessimistic, if I can do it anyone can. It’s me being honest. 

    He's bang on and is exactly what my reply would have been. (Apart from I'm not looking for a unit! :lol:)

    We have just had to cancel a deal with a customer at handover

    On px appraisal was told it had 2 keys, full history ( book wasn't in the car at the time ) and parcel shelf is in the garage at home....

    day of handover, we have lost the second key, service book has gone missing..... cant remember where services were done.... and shelf is lost.. no problem we will be charging you an extra £700 due to having to re value the part exchange with this information.


    customer kicks off and calls us crooks lol. and wont be proceeding. no problem jog on and forget your deposit oh and try telling the truth next time.

    lying gits.

    Well played....

    Exactly why I stopped bothering with private. Even when you ask them "is the gearbox noisy?" they tell you no then you turn up and guess what? Fucking crooks the general public.

    I hate it when you ask them to see the service book / history and they bring out the V5 with a blank expression on their face.......

    Although last year I bought a cheap runaround for myself, bought privately, the seller couldn't have been more helpful. Picked me up from the train station and even brimmed the car with fuel!! B) But yes, 99.9% of the general public, are lying, cheating crooks.....

    So local rag cocks up on price of a car that we advertised, should be £19995 and they put £1995, phone never stops and they were actually serious, one woman actually threatened me with trading standards if i didnt honour price!!! Then I had guy this week on a 2004 smart car wanted me to take it to Mercedes for inspection,,, i said no, so he arranges for RAC to come here and inspect it, nice RAC guy came but as he said the car is 14yr old and guy seems to be expecting the earth,,, he faults it on few bits,, so I have just got e mail off the "customer" who says "I will not be proceeding with the purchase of your smart car due to numerous faults (car was MOT,d Monday) I do obviously expect you to reimburse my £300 RAC inspection fee"  FFS,,, then to cap it all guy just e-mailed me on 99 Bentley Arnage at £20k I am prepared to purchase your car subject to inspection I will want finance over 5 years with nil deposit,,,, how the fcuk does he expect to run a Bentley if he cant find a dipper.... RANT OVER ITS FRIDAY I AM GOING TO GET PISSED,,, HAPPY WEEKEND FOLKS.

    You couldn't make this stuff up could you! One of the reasons we stopped using the local rag, useless tw*ts!! Enjoy your pint and have one for me! Cheers
