BHM 994 Posted October 5, 2017 Andy, there'll be plenty of Birmingham or Bradford based gentlemen torturing you with insulting offers and wanting to visit mob handed at 11 o'clock at night. You know the sort, the sort you don't really want visiting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BHM 994 Posted October 6, 2017 They love a diesel Toyota, although the avenisis must be the cream of the crop. I've a cheap Auris diesel with nice miles - I've had a few greedy parasites on the phone from the 'heavily accented, last price' brigade. Funnily enough its cheap enough for these bastards to phone but yet they always want lumps off the price & ask about every mark & scratch etc. They're lucky if they get 20 seconds of my time, although tbh one of them tricked me with his waffle and got 45 seconds the other day until I told him to "phone back tomorrow & don't expect a discount". I'd rather it sat there than try to thrash out a deal with these chancers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly. And if you give a discount they smell blood & torture you for weeks. It's easier telling them that's the price or it's no longer available - I honest would rather a car stood there than deal with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c_cars 56 Posted October 6, 2017 7 minutes ago, andymc1973 said: how did you get on Chris? The Auris was an SR petrol, nice example and attracted the right person so nice and easy. The Avensis was an 08 so not a lot of money but had a stint on Gumtree followed by an eBay no reserve auction where it sold at the highest bid to a Romanian for export. All messages ignored and no number in my ad during the auction! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Said he would buy any of the stereotypical export cars I got. To answer Stephen Ive always run my auctions to end Sunday evening although with mobile access these days I'm not sure whether it still makes a difference?
