    Congrats on the unit. It seems to be working well for you. That SsangYong looked like good value for money, so I'm not surprised it sold quickly.

    That van is very clean. My mate sells vans and says customers are much easier to deal with than car customers, be interesting to see what you think .

    Im glad someone else has done that with their insurance conmpany, ours didnt pay but inside our £25 admin charge but inside refunded all policy adjustment fees from our current year in the from of a credit, I guess thats one way of insuring (pun) we stayed with them, which we did as its a few years ago now.

    Another great video guys..
    James I think you are confusing the things your Nan used on the table when having tea and cakes with the things for moving cars around. Dollies rather than Doilies 🤔
    Made me smile though and took me back to childhood visits to my Grand Parents many moons ago.
    Clegg Gifford used to be good when I had dealings with their, now closed, satellite office. Totally pants since that closed sadly. Now you have premises it might be worth shopping around as opens up other options with more comprehensive policies.
    Keep up the good work.

    Just looking at your Vauxhall Astra advert on AutoTrader, which you seem to neglect to show in your most recent videos? - one thing I've noticed was front and rear bumper looks to have been painted, it might be the camara angle?

    Why don’t you get fresh number plates made up online and add The Clever Car Company text onto them to hide their original supplier and mark them as yours?

    • @CarDealerMagazine
      @CarDealerMagazine  3 месяца назад +1

      @@mathewsmith6321 we did think about it but it’s added cost to a very low margin business already. Plus, the only real advantage to that is to get your name known and I don’t know about your but have you ever seen a name on a number plate and thought ‘I need to visit that dealer’? I haven’t. So we just didn’t think the benefits would justify the costs. Maybe window stickers would work but also I think customers might get cheesed off in promoting our business. Tricky one isn’t it! Thanks for the idea though all the same 😀
