Rory RSC 596 Posted July 29, 2019 2 cars over the weekend here. Very quiet, awful weather and summer holidays probably not helping. Fortunately both cars had a nice lump in them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On 21 so far this month but most of that was done in the first 2 weeks, we will never work the job out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tradegirl 112 Posted July 31, 2019 1 sold Monday, and deposit taken tonight on another. Out of a total of 5 up for sale. Could have sold the Fiesta too and broken even on it, but I let the customer's attitude get to me instead of thinking with my pocket. All I can do is say a prayer of thanks, and tread carefully and smart in August. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sparky 274 Posted August 1, 2019 14 hours ago, David Horgan said: Cant buy the stock though , but thats another story And the same old story. With that in mind I had my Aston Barclay account switched back on this week which had been dormant since January. Glad I did because I picked up two lovely bits that are a bit of me, one I knicked and for the icing on the cake, both vat qualifying for my quarter which finished yesterday which will help soften the blow of a good three months for the vat man. P.S What a lovely user friendly website Aston Barclay now have. A pleasure to navigate, Manheim take note. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We finished on 39 retail the month had the potential to do more but just quietened off around the mid point. @David Horgan Excellent stuff mate love a big Finance month. 75% finance pen is mint.

Tony911 79 Posted August 1, 2019 Worst month on record ever but did have 1 with a big margin so not really complaining Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NOACROSS 414 Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) Ended with 20. Until one cancelled this morning from yesterday. Arse. He said ‘you can keep the deposit’ at least, so that’s something. (Can’t remember the last time someone cancelled.) V depressing start to the day. Then just sold a different car, so swings & roundabouts.
