In BIG TROUBLE | Ashville Weekly ep188

[@adlam97531]

You did the right thing to ask for your money back, if they cannot even sort out selling you the car, can you imagine how the aftersales would be there. Having worked in dealers for 30 years in the past, it is totally unacceptable.

[@sidstewart7399]

Daniel looking stressed. He seems happiest in the yard on Saturdays..when its not flat out, and most of all hes not getting bombarded with bad news. Monumental mental fortitude to hold it all together..

[@Im_helpless]

Running a business especially a pretty big one like ashville is stressful, surprised he doesn’t look stressed more often

[@sidstewart7399]

@@Im_helpless I run a small business and struggle at times. He's built differently. But he's also in too deep. Once you end up with these overheads you have to get deeper and deeper to feed it. It's all about getting the right support in place.

[@bjojosimpson]

On the upside he's got friends such as Yanni, Michal O'Donovan and Foxy who likely have gone through this before.

[@gr33nk56]

Daniel didn't know Charlie Branson done a Saturday shift 😳😆😆

[@RaigarRogue]

There’s 500k of us subscribed… if we all chuck in £10 the new yard costs are solved… fair value for the amount of entertainment you’ve put out

[@faroooqkhan1]

I would be happy to do that, he deserves that for the awesome videos he creates for us

[@user-ib3lb7ih7f]

How do we send the cash?

[@faroooqkhan1]

If a go fund me could be set up by team ashville it would be awesome. Let's see how many people really support him! 👌

[@The_Dua]

Tbh I'd drop a tenner, no charity just help a person out

[@faroooqkhan1]

Definitely not charity he deserves it. He’s helped me grow in my business

How so true is the saying " Turnover is vanity, profit is sanity and cash flow is king" !

[@H6NTY435D]

I like how Daniel has time to interact and have the crack with his staff, a lot of directors/upper management could learn from this, your workforce are the ones who are the money makers, without them the business is nothing.

[@sly1ig1]

It’s so good to watch something on KZbin that has substance and real life problems instead of all these so called influences that don’t even teach people anything worth teaching. Dan keep up the hard work mate.

[@Fast_car1000]

🤣🤣🤣 I love Daniel rants getting them off your chest with your audience is good because I definitely totally agree with you on everything you rant about because I’d feel the same way.

[@robertmoss279]

Hey Daniel, I’ve been following your channel for some time now and it’s absolutely one of the best not only for construction information but entertainment value too. My wife and I live in Scotland and just this last week 30/05/24 we traveled to Fareham after buying our new day van (yes it’s black with a lovely pearl paint finish. Consider this for your trucks maybe) Anyway on our drive home I spotted one of your tipper truck on the M25 parking lot, it’s the first I’ve seen in the flesh and was so excited (bit like a boy on Christmas morning at 04:00 am just after Santa has left) My wife’s reaction 🙄, calm down calm down your 68 years old man. She just doesn’t get it. Love your channel and content and always the first search after clicking on to KZbin. Kind regards 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 PS I’m also in to trains and love to watch a class 37 on a cold start, a bull nosed Deltic beats a pointy nosed class 805 any day.

My friends had bought a new land rover nothing but problems, late delivery and been on the back of a breakdown truck more times than on the road, they now have handed it back and moved over to mercedes and loving it.

Full faith that you will crush it and look back on these tough times and laugh, my weekly inspiration to carry on grinding 💪

Its Monday morning in Kenya, and am walking down the road from taking my son to school. And this is Ashu weekly episode 1

[@stu111able]

Hi Daniel,, have you ever done a feasibility study as in walk around the yard with a clip board and write down where you can improve things, processes, procedures ways of doibg things etc, rain water harvesting for wheel /truck washing,concrete mixing ,solar power, train all your staff to use every machine/piece of kit, train up lads to change tyres, maintenance etc, health n safety, first aid , have a bbq with the lads during the summer ,engage and explore new ideas/oportunites etc, a staff suggestion box perhaps, back up compressor, rent out a loading shovel while the liebherr gets repaired ,possibly buy /lease another materials handling machine to unload the trains and you wouod nt be in debt for 6 milliion quid plus you would have a spare machine if one decides to break down .anyhow keep going forward,love the videos thks 👍

[@cardiffb7914]

Your not doing to much mate,the hustle is motivating and great content and honest content and shows the graft involved,keep it up fella👏🏼👌🏼

I doubt Mr Donnavan will remember me 20 years ago on Kilburn high road. Solid evening with Pete the milk. I was on Dyne Rd back then. Now I remember the face so happy for you Daniel you deserve it.

[@joggingmixlondon6895]

Morning Daniel, All, My heart goes out to you for the week you’ve had Daniel. Things can only get better. Land Rover… I’m lost for words - apart from weren’t Urban involved with your last/current purchase why not again in all aspects? What’s the latest update re. your back injury? Good news I hope. Do let us know. Thank you for this week’s episode. Have a great week ahead Daniel and All. Take Care😊❤

[@dennisphoenix1]

Dan if you need compressed air to blow up tyres just get your townie to fit a branch on any tipper and use the engine compressor to blow up the tyres. You can do the same on tractor units using the suzie connections.

[@ChokyoDK]

The amount of stress Daniel must be under is insane. Big ups to you man💪💪

Respect for acknowledging this and commenting

Land rover service ............. SHOCK oh wait no standard service for them ......

[@gregarnold9244]

On the LandRover topic, why has customer care just disappeared over the past few years? It use to be a case people would stick to their word and get problems sorted, now most customer involved companies don't give a damn and feel incompetence is the best way forward. Customer care has gone to shit and nobody seems to give a damn about it.

Thank you. I needed to hear that. I will do it.

[@almangrant7358]

Co2 tanks are a great backup for an air compressor. A much higher pressure capacity is enough for heavy trucks and equipment tires & portable. The only cost is a special regulator and cylinder exchange, otherwise totally compatible with pneumatic systems.

[@GrahamWP58]

Baz will get the loader sorted, The new Defender should be worth the wait. Great content again.

[@davidorf3921]

Possible stupid question, but with regard to offloading from the trains, if money is tight right now, why not build the offloading pit under the tracks before putting the tracks and concrete yard down (and instal conduit for power etc ) but do not build the above ground bit yet and carry on with offloading as you are currently, then when you have more money add the offloading mechanism and building

[@jonbell2305]

I got to say your videos are good hats off to the video team 👏 If you never got your Defender what else is there ti buy. The Merc just gets stuck and the VW keeps blowing up and costing a fortune. And the Mitsubishi doesn't look that special great vehicle but doesn't have the presence like a Defender. Tough choices one needs to make ❤

[@forestgump8403]

prayers go out to you Daniel.... we in Trinidad and Tobago support you 😍🤗😇😎

ZF can refurb any of their gearbox or if you lucky have an exchange box a lot cheaper than the manufacturer. Applies to Alfa Romeo, BMW, JLR etc

I used to work at a company that would rebuild then and resell them. you can easily get another 5 years but have the pumps evaluated. Also, check a company called Grovema to see if they may have the part

14:20 rant don't worry about micro managing, you're doing fine. You can delegate to individuals but you will always be multi-disciplinary.

[@WiLLiAMOnline]

Great video again people! *Perfect decision on that landy and a late answer for your question put out the other episode - i'd go for that bottom unload track option but only if I have enough money left to buy a little plot for my tent in st lucia if it goes wrong 😆 It will go fine and 50yr... that's a lot of fututre income! (offering to work for free if you ever get yourself in a sticky situation) 👊🏻👌🏻 Well done so far superb!

[@dan13l-uk]

I know this is too late as I’ve already seen the Urban video on Friday but I would’ve told Land Rover to keep the car there’s so many better options out there for a vehicle with your needs (VAT Q, off road etc). Secondly I would’ve perhaps tried a heli coil on that compressor head. Keep battling on Dan we all love the content 🙏🏻

Hey Mr. Daniel, dont forget that the new yard are going to give you lots of work and room to improve you great buisness. The relation about land rover, is that you pay but they demand of you, try other brands, the market is full of "type of defenders". Keep your head at the top and keep going

[@mickgascoigne4003]

I own a company with around 40 staff in the north with sites scattered all over the And your right it’s hard to let someone take more responsibility and let go your self maybe it would work but I’m not ready to try either or ever will be unless it’s the sale of the company and I’m not financially tied to it

[@stanickelsappel698]

Cash at bank is fact but so is a 50 year lease. You have very good balance sheet asset's and with such colossal brand growth it's probably undervalued intangibles. Without seeing accounts it's hard to make this opinion but the next 50 year's is very promising for your business. If you are able to get favourable debt to complete yard it's the obvious option but great caution must be taken on over loading. Opening some equity would make sense as you get the cash without responsibility of repayment. I am sure many people would like a piece of the pie as your business looks prime for growth. Strong leader, brand and incredible lease. If you got the equity you then stand a greater chance of a more favourable loan as gearing would reduce. Hopefully this is explained correctly.
