Welcome to the forum. I see you posted this twice in this forum. I've taken the liberty to delete one of those.

The best way to do that is to interact with others in the main forum first. Posting a lot of questions and hoping for advice, we've found, isn't the best way to go about things. You wouldn't walk straight up to someone in the pub and ask them how they run their business would you? You'd start up a conversation first. That's a good tactic to take here.

I had to learn it all from scratch and make mistakes on the way and learn from them. 5 years later I think I have just about sussed the majority of it ;). 

Take a look in the car dealer mag as there are loads of trade contacts who you can call and approach. 

That would be my advice.

I would also say although the active members on this forum are very friendly and open, i don't think many of them will want to disclose what they have taken years to learn and (in some cases :P) perfect. I mean, all the questions you have asked are many key features on how to be successful in this field. 

All the best,

James
