Philip Nothard 26 Posted May 2, 2016 Do you believe that April benefited from Easter coming early and at the end of March - leaving a clean full month of April? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve92 80 Posted May 2, 2016 March was good for us, April really poor. I do think school holidays have an impact though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rory RSC 596 Posted May 2, 2016 Yes Phillip. April was our best month since starting. Start and end of month both busy a bit quiet at times in the middle. Whether it means anything or not but we also did the most finance business we have done also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TDB 31 Posted May 3, 2016 4 so far, hopefully May is as good as April was for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SC Derby 259 Posted May 8, 2016 (edited) Took n 2007 80k 107 on Friday and gave a price that meant I could retail it at under 2k, was still a bit worried about the mileage though and it wasn't perfect on the body. Put it on yesterday afternoon and had about 5 emails and two people turn up this morning as we opened. Maybe 5 door element adds desirability as I've had a few of these around 2.5-3k with mileage 50-60k and struggled in last 6 months.

Had one couple of years ago , It was only 12 Months old with very low mileage - didn't fly out straight away , but profitable deal - would buy again ! Good luck if you go with it.

Good luck if you go with it. Thanks Umesh, I've had a bash, 2009 59 with 50k on it, so I guess good mileage for age, and in a nice colour and spec w/ Full Toyota History. See how I get on. Thank you. I do like trying new bits and bobs. Edited May 10, 2016 by SC Derby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparky 274 Posted May 10, 2016 Bought a couple from BCA on Friday. My plate man rings me on Monday and says I can get one down to Tuesday, one down Thursday. For some reason that only Russell Grant could explain, I say bring the Alfa down first. It arrives this morning and then a few hours later it's all sparkly. Before I have chance to whack it on t'net and put some balloons on it a man walks on, shows an interest, test drives and then bish bosh boom. Funny old game. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 164 Posted May 18, 2016 2 today 4 last last week anyone else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve92 80 Posted May 18, 2016 6 since Friday, that includes an a5 advertised at 4pm on Friday with two customers viewing the car at the same time at 2pm on Saturday, could have had that thing sold 5 times over. Then a BMW 420d, got it back at 4pm, someone viewed it at 5pm and it left the same day, we were left with his old 320i (free) which we scrapped and got some extra ££ in the bank. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SC Derby 259 Posted May 19, 2016 I'm ticking over but again some days are deathly quiet. Last week would have been pretty much a washout but I managed to shift on 5 part exchanges some with small margin some normal, all sub £2.5k cars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
