Seems to be very mixed out there at the minute, with this morning SMMT report, indicating growth YOY of +3% and +" for Private?  Although, reports of continual tactical registrations on the last day, even though plenty remain in the market from last year.

Conversions at the auctions are reported to be healthy, and stock described as steady but no concerns of over-supply....YET!!!!

4 Sold so far. Today I sold my lovely V8 BMW M3 which is my most expensive car sold to date at 19k. Taken a nice disco as a part exchange in against it which is a beautiful bit of kit but not quite sure where to price it. 

Phone has been ringing more, emails have been coming in so hopefully a good weekend is in store.

Scraped through to 5 so far, not been busy though, think I've sold my better stock as well so may need a mid month re think.

Two today - Mazda 6 1.8 TS and VW Golf 1.4 S.

Got my Civic Type-S out on test drive as I type so could improve further, only got it in Friday am but I didn't get chance to do the buffs and touch ins which is always annoying.

4 Car Finance 24/7 deals this week - are these guys on a big advertising push at the moment?

Did a deal with evolution funding for the first time this week - efficient, quick and good payout with quite a nice easy to use online portal system. Surprisingly good and would rate the experience quite highly.  Worth a look as a broker for anyone who needs them.

Stark contrast to our experiences with Jigsaw.

We picked up a m135i last Friday, took a deposit on Saturday, he collected the 135 yesterday and we took his q7 as px, we advertised that last night and took a deposit this morning, it goes tomorrow. I just wish we had another 5 of them.

We have sold 23 retail cars this month. Behind where I wanted to be.

 

Also had a deluge of warranty claims that warranty provider have not paid out for. A  fortune has been spent putting things right at our expense. Sometimes think we are to nice here and get mugged off a bit.
