From past experience you can request someone from the rates department to come out and remeasure the area. Also as a side note put a little chain link fence between you and next doors this can even be a plastic one if need be, it takes away any miss measuring when they do decide to come and re-evaluate the area. Hope this helps you a little. Love the video's keep them coming .
5:03 Range Rover's natural habitat 😂 breaking down randomly
A tyre blowout can happen on any car though...
I work in Saudi and there's a saying here "You CAN drive into the desert in a Range Rover, but you will come out of the desert in a Prado (Land Cruiser)"
Sounds like you need a lawyer to fight city hall... totally agree with you're rant by the way
You come over as an honest bloke...how refreshing that you care....
The rates office aren't interested, they are only after the money.
First time commenting on your channel. I had a blow out in my 1976 Camaro at the exact same spot outside the RAC building in 1987. Back in the day before mobile phones you had to use the motorway phones, spaced every mile, They said two hours, I SHOUTED I AM HERE waving my arms like a stranded sailor .
Mr Car Pitch, advice re Non-Domestic Rates, have you claimed the 75% Retail, Hospitality and Leisure Relief Scheme on your Business Rates Bill?
As you are over the £12K threshold for 100% Relief -as your RV is 13500, so you will only get 50% Small Business Rate Relief (you loses 1.667% relief for every £50 over the 12K threshold) Have you claimed the above discount on top of your Small Business Rate Relief? As you are operating a car sales business you are entitled to claim the Relief. Contact your local council business rates team, and request the discount be applied to your bill if it hasn't already been applied to your bill.
thanks Robert I will look into this
@@carukchannel further info is on gthe government website at the link - www.gov.uk/government/publications/business-rates-relief-202324-retail-hospitality-and-leisure-scheme-local-authority-guidance/business-rates-relief-202324-retail-hospitality-and-leisure-scheme See section Part 2 (i) and it states car showrooms and second hand car lots are eligible for this Relief . Have a good day
I get them to sign for the locking wheel nut bud, but have one of those tools now to get any locking wheel nuts off mate works everytime and put standard back in.
yes cracking kit the removal tool 👍
What tool is that? Do you have a link please?
@@PTRsTransport Just weld a nut on the end of 'em.
Good god just realised watching this why I don't trade cars anymore
Repair repair repair no profit left
I always take my locking nuts off chuck them in the bin and put normal nuts on ,nobody nicks wheels anymore from basic cars ,the lockers are more trouble than there worth.
Yeah that's what I thought... when my battered wheels got nicked. If it isn't nailed down....
@khalidacosta7133 depends where you live I suppose but I had to remove stubs from broken citreon for a friend when the tyre shop wouldn't do ,when they break they leave a round stub to put a nut removal tool,more trouble than there worth .
Absolutely loved this video! Your insights on handling warranty claims and managing business rates are spot on. It's so helpful to see practical advice for navigating these challenges. Keep up the great work-this content is a game-changer for small business owners! 🚀💼
Bro! You should always have a car ready to go!! Trust me. If you have a car that someone can walk in and buy.. And takeaway the same day, You would sell so much more mate
I have been trying to buy a van, lots want 1 or 2 weeks to get them ready, yet they are mot
Free breakfast at Aston Barclay always cheers you up!
always 👍
Aston Barclay car auction BCA car auction G3 car auction sell car fees how much pounds
It's cheered me up and I ain't even going there
Hi Lee, ask for a site visit from the planning office. Contact your local councillor and ask for their help. They may fight your corner at any hearing. They may be referring to historical records , which includes all of the land as yours. Good luck.
Well that was an interesting update particularly enjoyed the car alarm 😂 good that you are making progress 🙌
Nice to have a honest car dealer just down the road from me, next car for my daughter will come from Lee
Come on Lee. The Range Rover. They not car wash marks. It looks like the rear arch has a dent Love the channel
I've ordered one of them TopDon diagnostic tools. Keep the great videos coming 👍
No way you lost a wheel lock in nut! But yer fair play for fixing. And yer 100% get them to sign they have book packs.. The nuts.. Mot... Etc etc cover your arse mate
Thanks always for your invaluable info , im an engineer and as soon as I saw your info on my wifes Aygo I was straight on it sealing all those parts you mentioned thanks enjoy the detail you allow us
Hi Lee, I am in Ireland and I only wish you were nearby because I would be using you to buy all my cars, you are the first honest car dealer that I have come across. I really hope you get your rates sorted out, I am a engineer and i would do your site survey for you . But unfortunately your in the UK and I am in Ireland, Maybe some one else who watches your videos might be able to help you out, I really enjoy your videos keep up the great work ............😃💥
Bought a nearly new landrover last week and I signed to say I received a locking wheel nut key !
Dude . I’m impressed that you offer a warranty on these older cars and stand by your work and customers. I thought you guys (dealers) bought a car, wash it and the stick 2k on price you paid and kicked it out the door . Had no idea .
Another excellent video, don't know how you keep it all together 😂
The untrue outside the RAC, you sounded proper like Peter Kay, I was wait g for the Garlic Bread gaff
It sounds like you have had a bad week but I love your sense of humour. Keep your chin up mate.
You are great when you rant best parts of your videos, still love the video about the woman with the suitcase a classic, more please.
great channel love watching it
Loved this one lovely range rover sport love them but good things to know also
Absolutely love your videos Lee. Super honest. There's a typo there I feel, it's not 8 Sq Metres, they mean 80 lol :D Just show them the video you just did. Anyone can see it's more than 8 Square Metres. Without ranting, imagine how many other poor sods they've done this to. Keep up the great content.
You have been going through it Lee but as you say you have to take the rough with the smooth. Amazed at the Valuation office. Our property was banded higher than a similar property for some reason which we did not know at the time. We supplied plans etc and they came and viewed and reduced it and then got a refund. You must appeal or whatever option is open to you. You need a bigger garage for what you are doing or some space to store things at a reasonable rate so you can keep the pitch full of the for sale cars and those being prepared.
Love the RR sport 🙂↔️🙌🏻
Bloody Vauxhalls and over heating! That and timing chains bloody hate them
Never buy a Vauxhall ever again had to scrap ours at 50k miles Chinese plastic crap guides and bicycle timing chains
Great video Lee keep em coming
Thanks 👍
Industrial incompetence. Nailed it.
Love your channel very informative about the motor trade can you tell me why with normal automatic cars the selector it’s push it forward to go in reverse and pull it back to go forwards ? Was the person who came up with this dyslectic ? Surely it wants to be the other way around?
Great video keep up the good work
Hi Li. I think your wife's Range Rover is very clean. I hope she likes her new one. You never said. I have never ever seen a Proton like that before, a mad looking car 🚗. You have a nice bit of stock, Lee. I'm over here crying because I can't find a decent car, lol. Keep up the good work, mate. 👌👍👏🇮🇪
Another entertaining video , have yourself a 🍺 and forget about rates, im sure you'll sort it out.
Always enjoy your vids, shame the mondeo is scrapped, looked tidy in previous vids, getting rare now, remenber when people scrapped sierras, worth mega money now ever base spec ones
Great channel. That is shocking regarding's the rates. You wonder why businesses end up in trouble. Its total incompetence. Those Peugeot locking nuts can be removed by welding a bolt on. I went to Formula 1 for two replacement tyres and had the locking nut in the boot when I left home and after 30 mins they came to me asking me for the locking nut. I said its in the boot under the tray in the foam cut out . They said come and have a look. Its disappeared . They had miss laid it then said I must be mistaken ! They then so called reviewed the cctv and said no locking nut was removed. Amazing cctv system they have which can see through metal. They admitted no liability. Peugeot want £175 + vat for a replacement key set which can take weeks from France as they can obtain key code number on there system. So in the end its cost me £70 to have them removed plus cost of new locking wheel nuts plus the purchase of the four nuts when welded off. I will be claiming compensation. I should listened to my partner who had tyres changed by them and they lost her locking nut as well !
Put your camera drone up ,😮 A Picture tells ....😊😊😊😊
Funny to see the fiesta over there in the UK. I do those here in Australia as rentals. Never had a rust issue but the headlights never look that good. They run hot here and go through coolant tanks and leaks from the water pumps seem to be common for me. Is that the case In colder climates?
Good video as always. Be gutted to see the yellow fiat 500 go.
I’d prefer a OBD scanner that has the cable cord… I know I’d break or lose the plug-in adapter!
There are business rates consultants/advisers - might be worth getting one of them in if all else fails - they might know how to play the local system. When did you last have your blood pressure checked? After the Berlingo van video would it be worth looking for a small van, eg Fiat Fiorino, for stock in case there is good local demand for them?
Calm down and carry on Lee , it’ll sort soon 😊
I had a proton persona compact 1.6 and it was excellent, how much is the persona in your yard 😁
Hi mate great video on the pitch for some reason I was un subscribed to your channel when I definitely didn't re subscribed so all good though I'd just let you know
Protons very popular in Middle East, used Toyota and Mitsubishi engines in different models. Make a great first car if spares are available
I bought a 2012 toyota verso s ..any thoughts about them its low milage have ot 4 weeks now drives quite nice
Hi Lee does that topdon diagnostic machine check parking sensors as well?
Also is there any chance you could make a prep vid for a car showing how your prepare you cars for sale
It will find scan faults on parking sensors yes, I used it on a Audi A6 recently which picked up a buzzer alarm unit fault which was stopping the circuit from working the park sensors. New one of ebay fitted and cleared with the scanner, all works lovely now. 👍
Can you do a video on your tools ?
I was looking at a 55 plate 2.7 Diesel sport......running it isn't an issue for me , but the insurance was stupid £2000 was the cheapest i could find on line
Why does it always piss it down when you get a puncture? I’ve had a few in my driving life and it always seems to happen when it rains 🙈🤣
to be fair your right it has always pissed down 😂
Water makes it more likely for debris to puncture a tyre.
Did you ever talk about the scenic. I watch all your videos and don’t remember you talking about about them
Tip with dodgy lock nuts. If they aren't monkey metal, take a nut and weld it to the end. Undo easy as owt. I've given this tip out many a time over the years and even to my ex testers son who scratched his head for forty minutes trying to remove some from a Rover. Four nuts and four welds later, those lock nuts were on the floor within five minutes. Commercial tyre fitter here. 👍
They have lost their usefulness. Nobody seems to thieve wheels no more
@@volt8684 that's because nearly all vehicles come with alloys as standard nowadays. However i know someone who had their wheels pinched a few years back because they had new tyres fitted. Someone jacked their vehicle up and swapped their bald wheels for the new ones, then drove off on new tyres, leaving their knackered ones behind on my customers car. Still a good deterrent but removal tools are available on eBay etc. I have two types but if they fail, then welding always works unless it's monkey metal. I have cut the wheels off a car in the past just leaving the lock nut to get at with molegrips.
Where you broke down opposite the RAC, I live 5 mins off J9. If I'd knew, I'd of got you towed off there & back to mine for a cuppa whilst you wait.
What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger!
I've bought the topdon 600s is that an alright machine im not going to be using it everyday
10000% mate you are completely right!!! It's woke kids no running our country
6:27 Max and Paddy’s Road To Nowhere 😂
🤣 Yes I could not resist, it was even in the same spot. Could not make it up
Classic Lee. Loved you video. Sorry you are having so much trouble with the rates depth. Makes my blood boil! Will be using that phase at work.
scruffy bastards as your bin is over flowing 🤣 love the channel !
Where’s the auction videos of you bidding? That’s what brought me to the channel?
I don’t just do auction videos however if that’s what your interested in your in luck, I have a long episode of me at auction and bidding and buying some vehicles on Monday 👍
Look forward to it mate. I’ve been watching since you sold the MoT garage so a fair while. I enjoy the auction videos
@@carukchannel looking forward to that video
@@carukchannel Where's the vlog?
Brilliant vlog you must be one of the most honest second hand car dealers around you say it as it is...... Hard work mind you put some hours in, well done keep up the good work....... Cheers
Thanks john have a great weekend
Hi mate the link for diagnostic scanner is a chinese seller not uk ?
Is this seller reputable as it is not topdon uk and i have heard of some chinese ebay bought diagnostic tools going faulty over a yr old with blank screen as had inferior electronics inside so don't want to be bit with any of them knock offs ....Any help/advice appreciated,just need to get something diy to keep up with home repairs on all the modern shite.Been a avid aygo,c1,107 man for years whole family drive them and i repair them,great little cars,regards from a subscriber & watcher of the channel.
you had me worried but the yellow fiat is still there panic over
I enjoy a pint but those super strength lagers never floated my boat - I like the taste of beer not pure alcohol. I am flirting with zero% beers now and again these days
Guiness zero best imo
Cheshire East the Billy Smarts of public services
would it help if you had a survivor take a look and produce a report to send in 👍🚗
When I was in local government,as Head of Financial Services, we employed a specialist company to argue the valuation for our council properties. We were challenging them all the time. Obviously, we paid a fee but we always came out well. I cannot recall the name of the company now as it was 15 years ago I retired. But surely you could google this? They were experts at fighting valuations tribunals and , as I say, usually won their case.
A locking wheel nut is there for a reason Lee.
Really??
I just use a Socket.
AF or W grade......Tap on with Hammer and Turn with extension bar. (Nice long 1 for easy/less effort) 👌
That proton just tell the lads its coming in Proton owned Lotus once lol
Did you manage to sort out the MOT license you were having problems with.
No need to do a exam and demo test, trying to get to time to box it off this month
I think the strong lager can was from "Man on bike" he was drowning his sorrows😅
An old fella once said to me:
"If you believe in the Public Sector then you are the problem."
Owners of the land ought to be paying whatever Rates the Council wants. Hopefully we can change it to that way one day.
Ask your council for proof of claim.
The whole system is coming down. Hold on tight.
Is it 8 square meter or 8 meters squared ?
I've just been checking your video about your business rates try and get someone independent to measure the site then you'll have someone helping you anyway you look forward to see you next video
I was paying £700 a year more than my neighbour in the same size industrial unit. I complained but they only dropped it £200 And basically told me to live with it because they don't intend to look at it again.
How do you get the free breakfast at Aston Barclay?
register to bid on the day
Does the Topdon work on Audi air suspension
yes it does suspension code reading and reset
Lee you are running about like a blue arse flea. Could do with freeing up some space up at the back . Anything taking up space not making money should be either binned, traded out or auctioned faster. Maybe you could do with a second mechanic to speed the turnaround of cars and fix up the warranty issues. Good luck mate.
Lee do you still have the Ghibli? How has the ownership experience been? how is it as a car?
5 years never had a single issue, most reliable car I ever owned. Car is outstanding and sounds like nothing else in comparison. Although I am about to sell mine and buy a granturismo, if i could keep my ghibli i would but the wife would not be happy with that 👍😁
If you do decide to get the support of a Rating Adviser make sure you understand what you will be paying. Some advisers charge an up-front fee, others take a percentage of any money they save you. however, If you disagree with the VOA's decision, you can appeal to the Valuation Tribunal. Good luck.
when will the Jag XF you bought be on the channel?
when I pick it up next week 😁👍
@@carukchannel looking fforward to something different😁🚙
2014 c1 white 100k most history just needs a clean 1 pre owner has factory spoiler a slightly better model £2500 ?
Lee i bet you struggle to name a better reliable engine in a modern car that beats a 1KR 1.0 ltr aygo,c1,107 motor 2005-14 yrs.
Not had the 2014> onwards aygo,108,c1 as of yet but know to avoid the 1.2ltr over the 1.0ltr.....Is the new 1.0ltr motor any good,also gonna buy one ov them topdon off the link,hopefully it will be a good buy,cheers pal.
Hospital and Dr's are a joke they haven't a clue what there doing
Never heard Rust called Soft before.
Does it actually let you tell a car that is has had a new DPF , when actually you have just cleaned it .
it will do dpf reset and regen cleaning, we use it all the time for that on diesel’s

I remember the last Volvo on the CarPitch had lots of intrest👀👀
Not a good time to sell cars at the moment , Im trying to sell my 2013 Fiat 500 as ive given up driving due to the high costs of petrol and insurance in the area i live near London , no one wants to buy it ive had new clutch and gear bearings fitted at a cost to myself of £800 and i only want £3 grand for the car but not even an offer ! A trader im friends with said he will give me £2100 for it so if i cant sell the car soon il just have to take that low offer , its sad times reminding me of the 1930s will swap car for loaf of bread lol thats how bad its getting mate
Only in London with a utter khant killing the place off....I predict CAMELS will be the new transport in Londonistan in the future,sad times we live in now.
If you stopped paying rates they'd soon be round 🤣. JLR. Just limited reliability.
Bca car auction video sir witing for me your video
looks like only did the shop lol
That protons gotta be the ugliest car since the old lada riva was introduced but someone will love it probably an older couple to go to the shops and church
Lee your totally at liberty for your blood to boil over the decision on business rates . Why should you pay for someone's mistake..you've worked hard for where you are. Hope you get it sorted.
The council are thieves. Why don’t they have a simple contract number, or get their lazy ass to see you. Glad you’re doing the right thing with your customers
