Would be nice if there was a used car cash n carry you could just pop to once a month and buy 20 units! It has never been easier to buy cheap stock from the block.You just have to do a lot of homework.What about being on the road at 4,to get to Colchester for 8.30 to wait for the catelogue,then go round the yard ..................it sounds like the Hovis advert ! ..........and a lot of the auctions were bent,which made it harder! Despite what anyone says,you cannot run a pitch properly on your own.However,what you have got to do.........only work half days...but every day..........that way the other 12 hours are yours !

Guys,better start again.I mean cheap good stock.If you do your research properly,you have to target a lot of stock,then constantly watch that screen and don't get distracted ( our guy can be watching 3 sales at once),there are always cheap cars slipping through.It is much better than going on 400 mile round trips don't you think !

Whoever installed Manheims simulcast video feed needs a clip round the ear. It must have been quite a job to get such poor quality in 2017? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They should invite real car dealers to input on the design of these systems rather than their IT guys interpretation? Although you can be sure the website is probably easy to maintain and backup.
