    you are getting far better price for paintwork than us ordinary public get, suppose thats the way it goes

      @thatcheapguy525 4 місяці тому

      having worked for a motor factor many years ago and supplied paint shops, I can confirm that car traders get the lowest possible price. those who work exclusively for car traders are often located in the middle of nowhere in very cheap premises. they tend to be real artisans who can work miracles too but aren't usually very customer friendly.

    Hi Lee it's john from Gibraltar,a good acquisition with a potential profit despite been a 12 year old car with 108k miles on the clock.I personally prefer a fiesta. I have a soft spot for Fiestas since It was my first car a mk2 1100 fiesta back in 1985.A pity that these car's were discontinued last year.

    • @carukchannel

    Just bought same car off my mates company. 63 reg , 147k but drives mint , full mot with new tyres all round , drivers seat got a couple of chunks out of it and it’s dirty inside. £130 tax for the year so I’m gonna keep it for a while , one owner with history for £500 . Lovely smooth cars , can’t hear the engine and I can see why you don’t have them long . Easily better option than a corsa for new drivers . Great video 👍

    They’re great an Ibiza , prob better than a Polo based upon. Sell almost as well. Problems are few and between. People don’t like them over 100k miles. The 2.0 CR FR diesel rare. 1.6 TDi aside they’re goood.

    I really like the content of this kind of video! It is good to know what is likely to be a fair and reliable investment to the general public. You give the pros and the cons of the type of cars buy and sell, which is breath of fresh air. It is helpful to know what a reputable dealer has to look out for, particularly at this end of the market. You give a refreshing insight into the world of the second hand car dealer. Thank you very much.
