    Wow, this is a busy day at the car pitch! It's great to see so many cars being sold and new ones coming in. The gearbox drama with the Suzuki sounds frustrating, but I'm glad you were able to find a solution. Those Insignia electrical gremlins sound like a nightmare too, but at least it's all sorted now and the customer has a reliable car. Keep up the good work and good luck with the auction content next week!

    Can’t believe the price of 12-13 year old bog standard hatchbacks at the moment! £3k+ for the Fiat 500, over £2k for a 13 year old 120k miles Fiesta! We’ve got a 120k miles 2010 Fiesta Titanium 1.4TDCi which I paid £3k for 3 years ago on 70k miles! Thought prices would have calmed down by now. Great channel BTW 👍

    • @carukchannel

    Ref that Agila - there is a woman round here uses one ( or a Wagon R ) as a delivery van - only has the drivers seat in it and carries loads of boxes. Many years ago I had an Astra as a company car and took it into a local dealers for a service. Having a chat turns out they had sold one to a 20 year old - he was a drummer in a band and he could get all his kit in to take to gigs - horses for courses eh?

    • @carukchannel
      @carukchannel  Před 2 měsíci +3

      Agree, also no commercial road tax to pay, a fiesta or corsa / combo van would be over £300 a year to tax, agila near half that

    Lee, both my Sons had the old shape Corsa. One of the cars wrecked an engine on the motorway due to a plastic coolant connector on the engine . The other one replaced it with a brass one- it ran for many miles. Worth letting your customer know/ to check. Heartbreaking for a new driver with their first car🙇‍♂️
