I’m always looking to expand and do more! | Dealerchat Ep25 ft High Peak Autos

[@anthonywalker5206]

I always watch Matt at High Peak Autos, seems a good decent dealer. As do all of you guys i watch as well.

[@Stoff1]

Higgett's is gaining traction now too

[@clivet3252]

Well he's not going to show himself in a bad light on his own videos.

[@alangravy27]

What a fantastic episode! The best by far. Love the relationship between you. I hope the four of you will do more together.

[@cavalier-y3r]

Met Chops a year ago when he kindly facilitated a roadtest on a Duster,gave us an honest valuation on our Mini explaining the reasoning on that valuation. Whilst we didn't buy his Duster it did influence our decision to buy one and gave the 'heads up' on what was a reasonable p/x on the Mini. Thank you. ps good chat.

[@bluefish2303]

Great to finally see Matt on Dealer Chat ❤

[@Miz-ql3ho]

Another great podcast! 👍 thanks for Keeping us motor traders sane, always good to hear rants & advise etc! Makes me feel way less alone in this industry!

[@EppingForest304]

This is the best car podcast episode I’ve watched/heard… so interesting 👍

[@adrianmooney6587]

Very good listen, interesting learning more on the dealer side of the business 👍

[@ShaksAutos]

Eye opener for most of us small traders. Makes you wonder weather it is worthwhile doing this for the long term!

[@zzhughesd]

POD in full was great.

[@hywelthomas5279]

Really good podcast. On the theme of growth/scale it would be great to get someone on from the likes of Saxton 4X4 who historically were a modestly sized dealer for several decades until they scaled up significantly in the last 15 years.

[@Southerncarsuk]

I thouroughly enjoyed that & thanks for the mention makes me very happy to be sticking with my old classics, selling modern cars sounds terrifying!

[@thebeardedcartrader]

Can't wait for this one - you just know it's going to be a good one 👍🏼

[@bryanprice5102]

Just a Chops said , you don’t know what’s going on when it leaves your premises . I run a mechanical garage and every time we get a customer who has caused a fault on their car the first thing they ask is “ do you think I’ll get that on warranty “ ? We recently had a car in that we serviced in July that broke down , they customer tried in every way to link the service to the reason for failure 😮

[@wayne2socialmedia]

Brilliant episode!

[@irishdog2031]

Very interesting watch nice seeing mat on here.

[@darrylp6938]

Matt sent me here. High Peak Autos is legit and this was a great podcast!

[@davidminns9799]

Brilliant 1hour 20 minutes of 4 of my favourite car guys on KZbin 😊 excellent

Been watching mat for years now :-) The Range Rover man 😅 ❤ great video Joe

Great episode!

[@edwardedwards5402]

Great podcast. Really enjoyed it !

[@cosmos7492]

I'm a massive fan of Matt at High Peak Autos the guy should be a presenter on Fifth Gear he's a lot better than the cardboard cut out's that's presenting it now lol

[@taxus750]

Thank you for posting the entire thing. I get the sense that this is not Matt's natural habitat, it's much more James's thing cos once he kicks off well...(no disrespect, he's got the gift of the gab). A second episode would be most welcome. 👍

[@2000halojones]

Great episode

[@pdglisa9087]

Superb podcast

[@carl235]

Joe your spot on about that company selling a warranty at £40 per month and then pushing it all back to the dealer.

[@adrianflower3230]

Group therapy for Dealers who have experienced too many "Great British Morons!" 😁😁😂😂

[@davidclabon1138]

Great Podcast, Love Matt and watch his videos religiously (as I do yours) 😂

[@carukchannel]

55:09 James @ChopsGarage completely agree with your decision to give back your finance FCA licence, I was thinking last year about getting it but after all the aggro and stories I have now concluded I would rather stick my balls in a vise instead of getting a finance licence 😁😁

[@RealTorquePodcast]

😂

[@ChopsGarage]

I still did the balls thing but just for my personal pleasure

[@obez42]

Great channel! Very interesting

[@timmoore2598]

When it said " Dealer Chat" I was thinking Skag and Charlie. It was only after I saw Matt I realised it must be about cars..😂

[@alanburton5099]

RE. This vid. I bought privately a LS 460 just over 4 years ago with 110,000 miles. After a 3 hour drive back home the dash was like a Christmas Tree-Check engine light, TPMS light, AWL light & Passenger Airbag light if I had been a mug and took it to Lexus it would have cost £4000+, just took it to my mechanic I always use-cost me £230 for an oil service and air filter and a check over-Now it has done 163,000 miles and all bar the Airbag light are still Brightly illuminated with no issues. I have the oil changed every 6 months or 5000 miles and it purrs. Alan B

[@ChopsGarage]

Love a 460

[@turquoisecat761]

How is it passing an MOT then if there are warning lights.

[@DaleSteel]

You've always got to make the best of the size you've got Joe. It's what you do with it that's count. 😅

[@BazDeeWren]

Great one lads 😎👍

Imagine these 4 all bidding on the same sportage! Ha ha ha

[@pauljamesproductions]

In the USA used cars are as is. No warranty. For the most part.

[@red9zero]

That 1 star Transit Connect review on HPA was hard work to read 🤣Think the chap needs to lay off the return key !

[@Cookieguy97]

When I got my current car for 4k from a 2nd hand dealer 1wk after having it a letter from bmw for a recall. Car was only 11yrs old on 140k 😂 Anyway bmw did there thing and found some issues, I also found some small issues which I mentioned when buying, and they agreed to repair at a later date (only electric wing mirror switch and screen wash). Bmw said It needed lots of money, mainly the sticky calliper and exhaust flexi. 2nd hand dealer agreed to repair the calliper, but the flexi was BMW beeing picky which they were.

[@DaleSteel]

Best business model is mine. Sell cheapies upto 5/6k but employ a mechanic for WHEN they break because boy will they break lol

[@kenmoore589]

Taking a liberty plugging into the van without asking.

[@larryrichmond8929]

Love the chat, but let's see what happens next week, my bus back at the mechanic, something strange happened, Dashboard lights all flickering when I unlocked. Started fine, but when I switched off, engine still running, even after taking key out. Had to stall in 4th gear, but lights still flickering away, and remote would not lock. Finally electrics seem to calm down and went off, and remote started to work again, so I could lock Oh an 07 seventy seater, what next?

[@999hireactionvehicles9]

South London under the arches traders are watching this rolling up Clocked motors , dodgy Mots , Cat not declared salvage and no comebacks or you get a pasting. This still goes on

[@chrisaris8756]

I’d like you guys to see the recent Joe talks cars KZbin. If I was the dealer he was slagging off, I’d sue him.

[@jameskole3584]

Saw a video by Joe Talks Cars. His friend purchased a car with a clean MOT, then on the drive home noticed a fault. When the friend took it to a MOT garage, apparently there were 8 MOT failable faults on the car, the the video was essentially questioning the integrity of the dealer's in house MOT. Then when they returned the car, apparently the dealer put the car immediately for resale. On the assumption this is true, this is probably why the good in the industry end up having to deal with the negative attitude and mindset of dodgy dealers which you discuss in these podcasts. Either they see reviews (genuine or false), or they have had a bad experience of their own, which then distorts their impression of the industry. Anyone level headed should know one bad dealer or bad experience doesn't make all dealers bad, but people remember bad experiences more than good experiences. If you have time to watch interested to get your thoughts on this video, perhaps on a future podcast.

[@jonathanpork-sausage617]

Interesting. There are plenty of useless and dishonest people in this (in any) business. They are unlikely to put out youtube videos "how I stitched up some old dear with a Jazz that had a bent ticket and superglued subframe" !

[@user-xd9yo3le7o]

I mean wanting windows that work...that's an extra we can't afford... why do we have regulations... because otherwise you'd just do what you like.

[@REVVINGRODNEY]

Try and focus a bit more on the guest mun 😂😂😂😂 History of their dealership, why and when they started, what's their goals and ambition etc etc

[@RealTorquePodcast]

Ask what you like on your own podcast buddy 👍😂

[@REVVINGRODNEY]

@ that's the point, they hardly asked anything 😂😂😂😂

[@Frog-t9z]

Stop doin long time warrantys just do 30 days thats it if there is a problem then it will show up !!

[@colin5777]

Wouldn't touch this business with a very long barge pole.

[@tiagofermar]

I would still trust Matt more than all of you. Honestly your attitude is subpar.

[@kismetorisit]

You guys should check yourselves a bit; £700 a month is nothing, £9k is nothing, I love money, I close when I feel like it, I enjoy having classic/expensive cars about, I’ve got £40k just sat there, etc., etc.. Then poor us, poor us, life’s so hard, customers are so awful. It’s not a great look. Dave seems most balanced.

[@oceandrive7283]

Yes, that's the impression i get. I think the others just like the simpletons bigging them up.

[@dj4myparty]

And he's back banging on about Auto trader again for god sake. Auto trader is not everything others can make do without so your wrong

[@billylip680]

I used to use olx here in Portugal it's like uk autotrader ,I used to swear by it,it's more professional ie if your a serious buyer or trader ,lots of those guys wouldn't like Facebook market place,I lost my ID a while ago(you need ID to buy advertising s)so started using Facebook again,not just market place the separate car only pages and I was doing quite well with it,but I have a few things now at good prices and I'm fairly sure they would have sold by now on olx;it's 25 euro per vehicle I've 10 vehicles so 250 euro,thing about that site is it's dedicated to cars so you don't get asked 1000 stupid questions about stuff like you do with Facebook by people that aren't really planning to buy anything

[@davidwhitton5519]

Your looking at it from a personal finances point of view. yes it is a lot of money to an individual but to a buisness those sums of money are nothing, it's not there personal money, it's the company's that has overheads direct expenses, Corp tax ect.

[@jonathanpork-sausage617]

They are talking about money in the context of business and it is also clear that they need finance to keep rolling and are only a few cars away from going out of business. It seems all pretty grounded TBH though.

[@dj4myparty]

Some very negative vibes here and this wont bode well for you guys . Dont sell cars if you don't want to deal with stuff that goes wrong. For god sake this second hand arguement is ridiculous. Its quiet simple thats the risk guys and like we have said its going to get worse! The guys your size wont exist in a few years its not a commercially viable with what cars you are buying.
