New subscriber. After decades in the car business, my very best day was when I decided I had had enough . I had all my remaining stock transported to the Auction and sold the lot of them. Kindest regards 🇨🇦🇨🇦

your team work so well together. I like your style of management. so many managers like to micromanage even though they know nothing of the job they want to oversee. i found it was best to trust the staff you spent time hiring.

Callum and his dad know their stuff, they should get the goody bag and the bottle of wine you mentioned. Not just for fixing it but the stress they have saved you from thinking it was a lemon

Not just small dealers - bought a Corsa (only £1k) from a Vauxhall dealer via Dealer Auction - after 2 miles caught fire - sold as scrap for £150 all within the space of 3 hours - been better burning £20 notes - at least would have got some heat! Their response - tough it was ok when we had it.

Someone's been fiddling with that car at the previous dealer that didn't know how to fix it. Some mechanics are out of their depth with BMWs.

As you say avoid independent dealer cars, but if you can sort them they're always very cheap and limping thru at the end of the sale, tbh most have bad engines tho, I always go in person to the auction and still get legged up, ha, ha.

In 10 + years in the trade I have never seen a car smoke that bad from a wrong injector code wow!. run a little rough maybe but never that. the amount of fuel it was banging in must have been crazy! bet last owner probbaly sold cos of poor MPG and smoke when could have had easy fix!

Buying at auction (any auction) is about the numbers. If you are only buying a few cars a week then buy privately instead. You can do your due diligence and thoroughly check it over. Whereas is you need 30+ cars a week then you need an auction and you'll have to take the rough with the smooth like the rest of the motor trade?

I watch yourself and a few other dealers and most of the time find the content interesting, but it must be time-consuming. I don't know if anyone has asked this question before, but given that your time is valuable, then doing these youtube videos must bring a reasonable monetary return. Otherwise, why do them? Thanks and all the best!
