Story time and potential sale

[@Joe-ug3dd]

Don't worry about the waffling 🙂 it's really interesting to hear about it all, good luck with the sales and new purchases 👍

@@Joe-ug3dd cheers Joe, pretty excited to get some new stock in and get some cars back on the pitch 👍

That level of the trade , you really need to be doing at the very least the servicing yourself and sourcing best price parts instead of giving a garage a free rein at £70 an hour. Won’t add up.

Great Dan, hopefully the person bought one of the cars. As you mentioned, keeping away from diesels where possible is best to keep repair costs down

@@TonyM444 Yes Tony, Kia has gone so we can go shopping on Wednesday 👍 I know the petrols are less trouble, but the problem is the margin! They are so expensive to buy and the margin in them is tiny, as I'm showing with the Agila. Diesels are riskier but generally have a 2k margin which leaves enough to fix them. But I do want 2 nice easy small petrols on Wednesday. Let's see what we get....

@@DanielGallivan-qt3fz Great to hear the Kia has sold, nice end to the week. I guess you just have to go where the money is, diesels included. Maybe just not automatic diesels !

Buy automatics - they’ll sell much easier

@@callumcoxon can't touch them mate, a 12 plate Aygo went through last night, bit scruffy, nothing special £4000 + fees. Can't bring myself to pay that for a 12 year old Aygo.
