Day In The Life Of A USED CAR DEALER

[@CalvinsCarDiary]

Thinking if selling your car? Visit my website: www.EnterReg.com

[@guyhamiltonyt]

Calvin, ive tried to go on your enterreg website, just to let you know there seems to be a problem with the site ceritification, it literally tells me acces denied, just thought i'd let you know incase other people are having the same experience, and it may be limiting your site traffic. -fellow car trader

[@andrewjohnson9054]

Do you do any warranty with any of your cars I really want to buy a car from you

[@rsturb01984]

Should use one of the units as a photo booth to take all photos for the cars be much better for lighting ect as the photos taken outside ain't that great and I've seen the car in person it's very tidy 👌

[@superk6487]

How much is that M3 Calvin?

[@Adam-M1]

You used to do episodes like this all the time! They were and still are thoroughly enjoyed.

[@flippingcarsrepairs]

Great episode 👍👍👍

[@PhannyObsession]

That same space you took the M3 out of (at 12:03), you should use that space for photos. Paint the walls white, make an 'Infinity Wall', put up some signage and tube lighting and that would be a perfect back drop. Plus, that way, you'd never have to worry about the weather

[@giosabcsl]

Just a correction, The DC5 is a 2litre not a 2.2 litre. Good to have these sort of videos back again.

[@CalvinsCarDiary]

When I watched the footage back I was like “how the F have I said 2.2!” 😤 Must be getting old 👴🏼

[@ChrisFEJackson]

@@CalvinsCarDiary It creeps up on you Calvin, especially when you are busy, I should know, I've surpassed the 'fossil' stage

[@luntoinside]

More of this please Calv. Great to see Binca’s progress!

[@chrisknowles2112]

Great video of what's involved in the day to day running of a car sales business. So pleased for you Calvin and everyone associated with the team. I feel honoured to watch your progress as you move forwards in life. Keep up the great work guys

[@matty1597]

Good welcome to the new lad👍

Thank you so much mate. It’s an honour having such a grateful audience 🙏🏼🙌

[@kennyken7693]

You're a proper grafter mate. All the very best for the future to you & your team.

[@ZiggyLaCont]

I completely agree Calvin. That E46 M3 shape has aged beautifully. 👍

[@mensstyle7282]

Best M3 of all time.

[@777Dariusss]

My dream job is to be a used car dealer, maybe one day I’ll leave my corporate job and take the plunge. Your videos are super inspiring - a where to start to become a used car dealer video would be epic

[@bigadamski66]

Calv, My mate won a 2019 caddy on 7 days performance and flew from belfast to stansted and got a train to norfolk or norwich. Then drove up to scotland all in one day to get it home. I would do the same if i won one on POD!

[@michaelstaunton1632]

Best of luck with the new yard for your business & hope all goes well 👍👍👍

[@matthewrandles8874]

Great insight Calvin, this could be a great series you can add to your channel. All the best, keep it going.

[@slimjft9669]

The new kid looks so happy to be there and he has a daily and a project car would love to see the progression on the mk2 fiesta

[@raymck2115]

Great Video Calvin, you're so genuine in your approach to people, well done mate. Bit annoying that people keep going for the cash. Would be good content to go and see the guys living with the cars. I would have kept the Alpina. Keep up the great work mate

[@wts.9]

I think most people would rather take the cash prize because it’s another car to insure, tax etc. and a bit of a hassle… but then again, people enter to win a car so I understand your frustration

[@M440iUK]

I can't believe anyone passed up on the beautiful Alpina. Future classic.

[@paulgriffiths7971]

I totally agree with u

[@Thevidstoday]

Agree!! Why be in a competition for a car and not claim the car

[@billyyr9469]

They'll be kicking themselves next week haha

[@siroberts6860]

Yeah that pissed me off massively, I've messaged cal saying stop offering cash alternatives as everyone else does that , pod is about winning a car not cash

[@paulgriffiths7971]

@@siroberts6860 Totally agree with u mate. Why enter to win an amazing car if u have no intentions of having it?

[@aminurrashid5625]

You should do like a weekly episode on what happens throughout the week,bit like a yanni monthly but weekly instead. would be very interesting to see!

[@ChrisFEJackson]

crumbs he does enough already. Unless he does a fly on the wall aspect where someone is filming him. I'd watch that!!

[@cchrist58]

Well Done Calvin !! ................ Bless You & You're Team

[@JamesMonty]

Like the Integra, aged really well. Only thing is they now feel really slow with no torque, I used to like them but just feels so unbelievably slow now unless you thrash the crap out of it.

[@saladgaming7146]

Soooo good to see the type r content again aswell as you and your business flying mate. so so happy for you :D

[@visionzbw4234]

Best type of video besides going out in fast cars 🔥 you're an inspiration mate, working the dream job 🙏

Makes me want to buy another M3. Great tips on car selling. Thanks BINCA and Calvin for such an informative KZbin vid

[@claudiushempstead9893]

Brilliant to recommend to your many fans to keep and be fit. If built into your life it benefits in every aspect.

[@radioactivepotato2068]

A receptionist not on reception ain't a receptionist PMSL. I love that "Are you lost" managerial approach. Shit has to be a machine. Any cog out of sync is dead weight.

[@spiritzen]

Calvin, better to do photos in that extra indoor space you have with properly rigged lighting. This way you can control the lighting come rain or shine and also the photos will look better. Especially after a good clean. Outdoor shots can be hit and miss with harsh shadows and inconsistent lighting.

[@ChrisFEJackson]

I agree, that way with similar lighting, you will also be able to compare how cars look. Normal daylight as you say is at the mercy of daily weather, we live in the UK, no brainer for 365 indoor photography!

[@markjwuk]

Really interesting video Calvin. Love the lineup of M3’s, insight into your daily routine and growth of your business! I’m interested to know how you balance all of this with spending time with your son? I’ve got a similar work mentality (totally different industry but cars are my hobby) but struggle with not being there to spend time with my daughter.

[@Mac_F87]

I’m 99% sure that Teg would have original came from Dicksons in Perth going by the reg number. They used to stock and sell quite a few. My cousin bought one and still has it stored away.

[@mattsbeamer]

A great video Calvin. You really are inspirational. I would love to get into the car trade one day. That new lad, has got a great boss, and can learn a lot from you. It would be interesting seeing your basic gym routine, as I’m a bit of a porker. I’m sure that you can inspire people in this area too. Cheers. Matt

[@leet7031]

If luke don't want the m3 I'd happily have it as a weekend summertime classic 👍 absolutely great thing your doing calv I personally find it greedy when people want the cash instead , everyone seems to be money grabbing these days, how could you turn down a free m3! It'd owe you nothing but maintenance 😫

[@srah1718]

Given the cost of living crisis it’s understandable. Not everyone can afford to maintain and keep the car

[@leet7031]

@S Rah exactly , so why enter a competition to win a free car if your going to struggle to run it , imagine if calv turned round and said no cash prize and for that I'm going to redraw the competition, golden rule live within your means , calvs giving away grands worth of cars for free and for some people that's just not good enough.

[@srah1718]

@@leet7031 completely agree mate. I guess some people know that when they enter. The car will fly out anyway. Perhaps they should change their policies and only offer the vehicle.

[@ChrisFEJackson]

I don't blame people in all honesty such are the times. It's like a windfall tbh. But being a petrol head all my life, I have starved to make sure my only car was still on the road (in the early days of course!!) then I'd plead poverty to my mum and she'd cook me a bacon sarnie :)

Why not turn one of the smaller units into a photography zone? Full control over lighting 365 days a year no matter the weather etc Seems like the ideal space, then the space is still a ‘money making’ zone.

[@leet7031]

No it's a shame someone like you didn't win it , yeah life's hard but your the perfect scenario for calv giving someone something they actually need! We're all in different positions in life and it's a proper gutting I didn't enter in the alpina for the exact reason is its not suitable for me as I have a daily diesel , the m3 on the other hand is more ideal as a weekend treat

Don’t understand why you would enter a competition to win a car and don’t want the car if you’re lucky enough to win it. Personally I wouldn’t offer a cash alternative. It’s a free competition so don’t take the mickey
