Watching this sends shivers down my spine, i sold out of my car sales site one year ago, got fed up with EVERYTHING in the car trade, the expense, faults, autotrader ripping us off and moaning customers, vat, and useless mechanics, but the car trade did give me the opportunity to retire very early!
I have been to see two cars recently being sold by car sharks, sorry dealers on Ebay. Being economical with the truth in adverts is a gross understatement. I would call it lying. The dodgy car dealer business is thriving. The last car I went to see had a crumpled bonnet that looked like someone had fallen onto it off a building. The photographs did not show it up. The gentleman then admitted that he bought it purely from the auction photographs. He then tried to say he was duped too by showing the auction pictures! FFS. The ebay advert said the clutch was crisp, but on arrival, found a complete replacement unit in the boot, which he said was going to be fitted! In essence, the cluch in it was shot. You get the picture. This particular trader was in Bradford. No wonder auction prices are rising if idiots are sat on a laptop bidding with the sole intention of buying anything and then jacking up the price to sell to unsuspecting and often desperate punters. They haven't a clue what they are buying and neither have the punters. ANYONE INTENDING TO BUY A SECOND HAND CAR NEEDS TO APPROACH THE SITUATION WITH THE VIEW THAT SOMEONE IS ATTEMPTING TO ROB THEM. AND TAKE IT FROM THERE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! Good channel, by the way. It helps us poor individuals looking for the next car, and shows that there are some dealers you could place trust in out there.
It feels like the car auctions are worse for the consumer recently. The garages end up bidding silly money and the need for a margin is added on to the end figure for sale prices. Gone are the days of garages getting a bargain at auction and selling for a reasonable price and profit.
Most of them look almost new, but now many Brits are complaining about paying a fraction more in tax, just after buying a brand-new motor to replace the 2-year-old motor.
Sorry you went away empty handed Joe . Prices were strong. Pink rang rover though LOL I would get heaters on that and rip that wrap off immediately. All the best fella 👍
So you 4 start a dealership between you (25% share of everything) Do you go bust in 2 years or do you do so well, you expand and in 2 years are selling 200 a month from multiple sites ??
Congrats on your awards, well deserved. I drive past Berrow Motors to get to my gym, and always have a nosey to see what you have on the forecourt. Much success your way👍
I've had a premonition you will be getting an award this year @ the auto awards show, you said you were going to attend, you certainly deserve one Joe, hope it comes true, all the hard work you do promote the good side in the trade with your podcasts
I`ve been looking at the cars going through BCA online and so many have had the mats taken and replaced with cheap ones or even the parcel shelves. Is that something you have noticed ?.
I love these auction situations . Takes me back to when they were more dodgy . Trying to make educated guesses on taking a punt on the block . And you never know just what you have bought . Sometimes it goes really well and sometimes it doesn’t .
very interesting how you guys buy cars in uk ,very slow paced.i myself are a wholesaler we sell cars thru various manheim auctions on the west coast of california,we guarentee all our cars which have a 7 day buy back we sell about 60 to 100 cars a month,
Hello from Ireland again, Joe. God, I have been watching, You and James forever, but recently through you, I now watch Rob, and Dave as well, lol. Two lovely, honest and so Genuine dealers. I always Pray, that they do well for themselves. They so deserve to. Did I hear you say, Joe, that you were going to get me that, Fiat 500, and send it to Ireland for me? 😅😅😅😅👏👏👏👏. I hope you're Smiling now, Joe, I am Irish lol 😆. Anyway, that GLE Mercedes is very nice, a nice Silver colour, you want to buy it, so you get to drive it around for a while, lol. I know I would, mate. Fantastic Video, Joe. All my favourite people in the same place. Priceless stuff, well done, whoever came up with the idea. 🙏🙏👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
manual to me not a negative it a plus. maybe not at this current time but give it some years the manual will go up in price for sure and prob still be working well. more and more car makers making it harder to get manuals the manuals what are around do for sure have a market. you say your old think previous vids you said you younger than i im 38 but im not disabled enough yet to buy a auto even tho im in opioid meds for pain i enjoy driving. just got my long term car a small light weight top spec i20 manual the only tech is cruise control for boring roads what was a must so long trip i can take mini breaks allow the car to do the work but fun twisty road i want to be driving. even tho my health worse than people a lot older ive had 70 plus jog past me even so i fight to keep driving manual for as long as i can, only thing stop me if i end in a wheel chair. auto for me is a disability aid for people who are not able to use the clutch. that how i see it and on top that auto goes wrong on used car it probley written off due to cost to fix and manual last far longer in lot cars and much cheaper to fix
Really nice to have a crack with like minded guys. Ofcourse the danger is that you end up bidding against each other and/or dropping out to let the others have a go.
That 420d was definitely worth a punt, manual or not. Brilliant cars and I,m still looking. Before anybody asks how I know that, it,s because I have one and am looking for another one.🙂 , yes, I have one and want another one.🙂
Joe all these cars that have no V5 at auction, what do you do, do you register them and add another owner or wait until you sell them and then do a V62 for the new customer?
Joking apart, I know someone who buy damage repairable cars like Ford Ka,Beetles, Fiesta and anything convertible. He paints them pink and sells everyone of them quickly..
Joe tell Rob the Nismo RS are crap sellers, as my lad not long hot rid of a white one with bucket seats, took forever to sell 🙈 Cheers Sam in Cannock Staffs . . .
Surely its not a case of out of control prices, and more that the book prices are rubbish? The book prices by definition must always be behind the market.
All the new EVs that sold new 3-5 years ago aren’t popular now, so more focus on the ICE cars. Also there’s so many end of year new car deals there’s less buyers.
Battery lease Zoes really are worthless - I don’t buy them at all and strongly recommend people steer clear of them. There are quite a few battery owned ones around now though.
What's the food like at the auction? As a dealer, do you get canteen vouchers? Here in Japan, it's not that great, but there is halal food for those Taliban buyers.
I watched a local car dealer cover up their car number plates before photographing them to go up for sale. I thought this might be to stop customers looking up the MOT history before purchase. However on their website they show the plate on the rear of the car. Maybe it is to get physical customers to look at the car before walking around the back. Applied psychology, maybe. It just seems shady to me. Covered plates make me want to walk away.
Well done Joe you deserve your succes your always trying and have nice way with you your not afraid to take punt sometimes good luck with your channell and car sales
Joe, as I type, I’m about 20mins into this video. Genuine question, I find this concept odd. Trade buyers all asking what each other is bidding on each car. Surely that drives the price up of each car that one would want to buy? As in you and the other traders. Is this best practice? Love all the uploads though, it’s not a diss !

Loved the day out thanks mate! Hopefully the pink range rover will fly out 😂
Trust James to go to an auction with hundreds of cars and think the best is a beige Kia 😂
You can take the boy out of Devon, but not the Devon.....................
Hey Joe , Congrats on your Media Award ....

Shots fired at my paint jobs!!! That's effing it Berrow!!!
😂😂
As you said, very strong prices, still a very entertaining auction video. Looked like a good day out. Good show good show!
Most of them look almost new, but now many Brits are complaining about paying a fraction more in tax, just after buying a brand-new motor to replace the 2-year-old motor.
A fraction more of already extortionate.

Got a nice pink fiat 500 for sale, just over 30 thousand miles
Joe all these cars that have no V5 at auction, what do you do, do you register them and add another owner or wait until you sell them and then do a V62 for the new customer?
Great again Joe seen all the videos made by the guys who needs the TV or cinema mate
Great to watch as always you guys seem to fit well together 😎
The wife is wanting a 24 reg 240i in purple any advice. I told her to wait until next March.
Motorcycles would begood too, huge demand
Joking apart, I know someone who buy damage repairable cars like Ford Ka,Beetles, Fiesta and anything convertible. He paints them pink and sells everyone of them quickly..
Well done Joe, smashing it mate!!
that pink rangy will be full of Katy prices spillage am sure the courts were selling that lol
Joe tell Rob the Nismo RS are crap sellers, as my lad not long hot rid of a white one with bucket seats, took forever to sell 🙈 Cheers Sam in Cannock Staffs . . .
Get dave to sell that Range Rover to katie price, she's loves pink cars. Prices holding up. Mad to see you all at G3.
Probably WAS hers. Drivers cushion will be rotted.
As we approach 2030, good quality used ICE cars will become hyper expensive
Another brilliant long vid 👌
Good episode ,should title it “last of the summer wine “ 😊
Surely its not a case of out of control prices, and more that the book prices are rubbish? The book prices by definition must always be behind the market.
Took the words right out of my mouth 😂Said he was skint 😮
You think the UK is expensive for second hand cars..here in Portugal that white cla would be selling for 20k
It's ridiculous the price of cars here
The state of that guy from chops garage jeeeez
All the new EVs that sold new 3-5 years ago aren’t popular now, so more focus on the ICE cars. Also there’s so many end of year new car deals there’s less buyers.
People don't want their control and surveillance tech. New cars are really going to suffer because of the wall kissing Marxists.
It looks like you had a great day, even though it was more expensive than you had planned.
always cold tup north !
hi guys what does the retail rating mean
How desirable that car is within 50 miles of your dealership
Thanks thought it was reliability
Enjoyed that from comfort of armchair
Thought you were down to your last £20? :)
For about 15 minutes 👍😅
Congratulations on your award, we’ll deserved!
Battery lease Zoes really are worthless - I don’t buy them at all and strongly recommend people steer clear of them. There are quite a few battery owned ones around now though.
Looks like a great day out even if you didn’t buy anything.

Here in Japan, it's not that great, but there is halal food for those Taliban buyers.
High or low ?
Prices I thought where strong at Manheim today, I do find interesting how much attention you pay to AT retail ratings
No point over paying when your not low on stock. Always next time Joe
Buy car at block wash it then sell to mug for 4 or 5 thousand more
Yeah you've got it all figured mate 🙄😂
are you doing t shirts yet?
I repeat, Primark are selling T Shirts. They've loads.
Its alot of dealers getting stocking loans that are ruining the market
Literally watch a video last week from someone else saying the exact opposite on auction prices 😂
Damn when bidding it can become very hectic
I thought 2 litre diesel ingenium JLR were a no no for dealers?
Are you doing t shirts yet
If you're stuck for T Shirts Primark have that many they're selling them.
Yes, shiftingmetal.co.uk
REPO heaven😵💫
Made a rule many years ago
Never buy anything thats been boyracerd , illegal tints and tyres on that Bmw is big no
Dissapointed no bacon roll shown thats it im unsubscribing 😂😂😂 haha enjoyed that Joe nice to see everyone doing their thing.
