Apparently the average dealer lost £17k in may, Just wondering which of us average dealers on this forum blue the brains out after the 17k loss they made.

Where do they get these figures from,

Probably tradex's purchase receipts from all the oil his Focus was using.

The difference in relevance between the glossy magazine and the forum is quite funny sometimes

I wouldn't worry too much mind. We're still making an annual profit of 180k

Yes but I only get 1/2 of the profit as the wife takes her share, could some one remind me what is 50% of F*ck all

My understanding is its the report from ASE who are responsible for many franchised dealerships accounts that are required to be produced for the manufacturer. So guessing they just use this data for an industry average.

Such a distorted figure, I cant image many main dealers making money month on month its all about the retros these days.
