They’re letting the estate agents open I’d say because of its closer links to the economy’s strength, after that surely comes the motor trade. Hopefully they understand the motor trade and the importance of auctions when they decide to reopen us... but if they open us (used dealers) sort of inadvertently because they want new car sales to restart the auctions might not come with it.

Offer them a crafty hand job with the anti-viral Latex gloves & they’ll leave happy. Tbh it’s easier finding a non-key worker nowadays. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Contracts 68 Posted May 13, 2020 Quite a few main dealers are opening service departments this week with non key workers bookings from next week. Several I have spoken with have commented on the number of customers asking for C&D which they are unable to help with due to their drivers being from the higher risk group.
