Rory RSC 596 Posted January 24, 2017 30 for the month - cant buy them back in quick enough. Doing better with the newer more expensive stuff that I have more profit in. The cheaper stock I have which has been sat for a while and reduced back is still sat growing roots. Not that much finance coming through, couple of reps calling in trying to drum up business.

grant8064 219 Posted January 24, 2017 Two today and one more going through on finance. All been taking a while to decide but coming back after a couple of days looking elsewhere which is reassuring. Can't buy a sausage at the moment but hopefully it'll calm down once we roll into Feb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SC Derby 259 Posted January 24, 2017 Got space for 8-9 cars myself. Can't seem to buy much at all. Got a gold V50 estate yesterday but that's it. Did manage to buy a Leon 1.4 FR and a Grand Vitara privately last week which has helped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
