Auctions day 2 and I’ve got it very wrong… even after all that planning!
zhlédnutí 25KPřed dnem
After the day starting so well with an epic sound test of an Aston Martin through a town centre, things went downhill very quickly. NOT looking forward to this auction purchase turning up. Every day is different, in the life of a car dealer! Whoopsie!

    Ran the workshop at a main dealers and did the testing; could never understand sales valuing px's without our checking them first. They would have a full prep done, I would test and then they would discover they were in for a whole lot of un planned expense; a few turned out to be cut and shuts. Got through a few sales managers!

    Here from the Podcast, interesting watch - I guess you have to take the rough with the smooth but Christ it must be hard getting shafted like this. Hopefully a minor blip and then onwards and upwards. ❤ thanks for the videos and podcasts!

    I think you should feel special when spending money in a dealership. We’ve bought many cars over the years and had the best experience with the lower end when collecting. One of the cars had a cover on and got the full unveiling etc. When recently buying a very expensive top of the range car, it was in a delivery bay and felt very underwhelming when handing over with no cover etc.

    I bought a brand new AMG last year. It broke down after 600 miles. They had it in for over a month until they said we’ve tried everything and can’t fix it. They had to strip down the engine and had to wait for a tool from Germany to do this. I rejected the car and got a full refund. Never again.

    Car dealing in the 70's and 80's was great fun and a laugh a minute at the auctions, now it's just a pain in the arris, glad I got out in 1990.

    The facelift Quattroporte is pretty much my dream car, and you see them for sale for £15k, but then you hear about things like £500 02 sensors 😂 it's easy to forget affordable buying price does not mean that's it's not still a proper exotic with the parts availablity and price tag to match 😢

    As an owner of a 2013 SLK55 for five years until last year maybe the reason this car is welded to your forecourt is that it’s overpriced? You can buy an R172 SLK 55AMG for pretty much the same money, better car and ten years newer.

  • @marianbeach1274
    @marianbeach1274 Před 3 dny

    Hi Rob, I watched your podcast with the other two guys and found it very interesting. I'm a big fan of Matt at High Peak Autos and thought I'd send him a very nice email asking him if he'd ever considered kicking Autotrader into touch as was discussed in the podcast. I was very proud of the nicely constructed and jolly little email. I received a one-word answer - Crank. I'm very puzzled about this and have decided to either stop watching HPA channel or just watch all the posts as normal and then just comment "crank".
