    The name Viva started in 1962 with a boxy little car. The Viva HA was born, as was a lot of other Vauxhall Vivas. The last car of that name was made in 1985, to be brought back by Vauxhall in 2013. And that’s the one you’ve got.

    Li, I used to tell the staff at my old tool hire shop "if we stop hiring and selling so much we won't have to knacker ourselves rushing around ordering more stock, off-loading it, storing it, selling it, fleeting it, cleaning it and repairing it. think of all the time we'd save!!!"
    did they listen? NO. every month, every year we smashed our targets and banked ourselves some really good money.
    even my "customer improvement programme" failed. they just spent more to spite me!

    What impresses me Lee is in your last video you said you didn't have time to buy more stock at auction because you were using that time to prepare cars to deliver to customers. Those customers had placed deposits and were locked in sales, you chose to give them good customer service rather than buying more stock to get more customers, which I believe says everything any future customers may need to know about your integrity and quality customer service 👍🏻

  • @volt8684
    @volt8684 Před měsícem +1

    Your success as well as your integrity has got to be down to customers choosing these type of cars against much more expensive stuff. My daughter is in OZ for a year and I have been giving her Yaris a run every 2 weeks. 1.0krfe engine same as C1 etc. last night I was cruising at 60 for about 12 miles and the computer showed an average of 65.5 mpg. 90k miles runs like new.

    Great video bud, you could have sorted that paint out for a tenner, g 3 doors, blow some base coat over the join on both doors, clear it then use fade out thinner to blend in both sides, hardly take any time, tbh the painter should have blended into the door in the first place, you can't really do panel to panel on silver, it always seems mucky compared to factory, I blend virtually every job tbh.

  • @roxieloot
    @roxieloot Před měsícem +2

    People make a big deal out of cat S & N cars. But reality is, if a car was ever hit when it was new(ish) and was repaired by insurance, it wouldn't be on the cat register. So a car on the register is not an issue, just means you can save lots of money. Just make sure it has been repaired properly. But most cars once they get to 10yrs and older, have had body work paint at some point, with suspension replacements etc. Which is what gets done after an accident. But people hear cat N or S. And automatically think death trap and its been smashed to pieces, not a dented wing & broke headlight, or needs a couple of doors.

    • @kevinmoffatt
      @kevinmoffatt Před měsícem

      I've bought quite a few and the repairs have been a wing and a bumper! Before big brother and the internet ruled our lives no one knew what had been done to used cars and they took them at face value. I bought my current car at one year old for £12,000 and, from recent and past experience, I know the dealers are going to insult me with really low trade in values when I choose to replace it; thats if they will even take it. If we are serious about saving the planet things need to change.
