    Yrs ago ran a P38a.
    Bought direct & not over main dealer.
    Ran it into local main LR dealers a few times. The workshop foreman took me around the "elephant's graveyard" one Saturday morning - his advice - unless someone else is paying for them (once outside the warrantee) - get shut of them.
    6 months later i did just that.
    I run a defender at the weekend with a 300tdi but a RR never again

      I bought a new Range Rover back in 1992. Only one year warranty back then, and nothing but problems - sunroof, wipers, a/c, transmission slipping, using coolant. Seemed like every time you got in it, something would go wrong. When the sunroof refused to close one day when it started raining, it was the final straw. I bought a new 80 series Landcruiser january 94, and still have it.

    The enthusiastic & elated young gentleman in the rather fetching Adidas training foot wear demonstrated the flashing indication & rotation of the off side psa van mirror, but failed to inspect the small hole in the underside of said mirror to see if the sensor for the dpf outside temperature sender was present. Such oversight could lead to a misdiagnosis of the dpf being faulty & possibly cause unnecessary expenditure for all concerned. Excubrience is no replacement for excellence. Love these vids!

    Great video its good to see the ins and outs, will be following your journy. just visually looking in the video which doesnt show much but it looks like the pitch is quite plain, looks like your on a busy road but driving past your yard would look industrial, do you guys ever park the cars nose facing the road with the boots up ? and have prices on the front of the window big stickers ?

    • @cardealerpro

      Tbf It’s not a very busy road! I used to be on a really busy road! Id have all the boots up and price boards in the windows but got fed up of the time wasters and test pilots, if I was still on a busy road I would definitely have the price boards in the windows. I’ve been thinking about putting a few price boards in the ones at the front of the pitch! That can be our 1 percent improvement this week!

    The reason why second hand car dealers struggle to sell these high spec prestige cars is that the main dealers are selling brand new models at very low APR (PCP) and business lease/purchase for business customers with very low monthly payments and huge manufacturer and dealership contributions. Its madness to buy a used one 😅

  • @tripled8807
    @tripled8807 8 месяцев назад +2

    Good morning. When we buy a car and there's deffo no service history, we write to the former owner. We send a greeting card, we concoct a story saying that we've just bought it from the auction as a retirement present for my mother in law and we're just asking if they can point us in the direction of where it was serviced. 50% of people email us back. 2 big successes are a one owner volvo xc70 that had total main dealer service history sent to us and a q5 with full history and receipts for a new turbo.
    The reason we make up the story of buying the car as a present for a relative, is that if we told them we'd bought it to retail, you're less likely to get any response.

    That Citroen van will be back when you've sold it. The mirror you've fitted as outside temp in it and the new one won't have it, so the van will come up with loads of issues and the dpf will block up, the bottom of the mirrors will have a little dimple sticking through which is the outside temp sensor, you can tell you have problems because the outside temp on dash will be blank

    Yup. Concentrate sellers and mileage. Leave the stinkers. I’ve traded 19 years and first ten years was on price any mileage. Back of book anything. It made 20 sales a week at low low profit but huge turnover so ok profit. But each year 25k blow corner of broken cars. Better do less cars. Cars that sell and only 1/2 stinkers per year ( 10 plus cough ) …. Rangers make you feel like a lord. But as a trader they’re so hard unless you just specialise in JLR products.
