      I think he was trying to be nice by not initially rejecting her outright, as it would be rude, so he just negotiated with Peter.
      One time, in the American version of this show Shark Tank, Mr. Wonderful was outright rejected by the business owner and that seemed to greatly upset him, causing all of the Sharks (they’re called Sharks in the American version) to be very offended.

    The truck wash thing would work without question, I’m surprised Peter doesn’t realise how convenient it would be for haulage companies to use this service.
    It normally takes more money and time to do it yourself and it’s not easy, most have a cleaning company come around and valet the trucks once twice a month and this would be a great alternative for those companies, stobart and others would go for it, I’m sure they pay more than £16 a trauck and trailer
