Nice to see a trader sorting the cars before they sell them and doing a proper job not just a lash over💪👍

They take the…. With retail prices

I bought a car from Peugeot partner tepee from cars Direct in Peterborough and it’s been a nightmare. They are the worst company I ever bought from. They just had it 2 months and only just tightened the auxiliary belt. The suspension has a horrid creek coming from it. It’s had loads of new part like shocks, steering rack road ends, and lower plate. Still making a noise. It also has a problem with the cruise control, when setting at 70mph it’s it shows 62mph on the speedo, they haven’t done nothing. It really nice to see a garage like yours sorting problem out and doing proper service. I also bought a Renault trafic 68 plate from caravan and cars in brigg and they told me the van was serviced. Was heck the auxiliary belt shredded 3 weeks later, I took the air filter and it’s black as your hat. The oil on diagnostic shows the it’s deteriorating. So really isn’t nice for customers. Your showing me faith in good companies, I’m happy your doing so well. Thank you

Yes it's so good to see this company doing 100% percent for all the car's well done guys brilliant 👏

Lee, this is 100% the best channel of its type on YT right now. Well done. I'd buy a car from you in a heartbeat.

Hi Lee,great that you are doing so good on the new site.Think some other garages could learn from your honesty.Keep up the great work & content

Your integrity is absolutely top notch !

Great news that your selling, selling, selling. As an outsider to the car business you don’t think about how much time has to be spent on prep. Then multiply that by numbers and your time is running out. I can see it’s a fine balance between prepping to sell and buying more to prep. What a game! You could do with some luck on purchasing some clean stuff that just needs minimal valet/ service and out the door. I do commend you for making the cars ‘right’ before they go out. If you get them at a good price sell them at a competitive price and work on them as honestly as you do you can’t go far wrong. A pleasure watching the videos ( I don’t know where you find the time) but it is appreciated. Dave Birmingham

Another superb video. Great to hear how you are juggling everything. You can't complain about being bored, pleasure to see the business grow.

Old cars are great, for a start there's a lot less technology that will definitely go wrong regardless of the make and model. I've got a mk4 golf tdi, 2001, it's got 387,000 miles on the clock and still runs like a rolex. I drive over 100 miles a day in it and it doesn't miss a beat. In 22 years time there won't be a single car that's new today on the road with nearly 400k on the road because they're designed and built to fail long before that.

Great to see things taking off Lee,I can think of worse problems to have👍

Decent used car salesman seem rare these days. Glad to see you're doing well. I bought a 2009 2.2 diesel civic back in 2016 from a decent garage 52k on the clock. Still have it now 116k on the clock. Recently put a clutch and dmf in it. Apart from that and discs and pads etc it's been fine.

The corrida red first generation Škoda Fabia is my favourite car here, I used to have the same model in black magic metallic. Great video, as always Lee, you’ve got some great stock there, I’m glad you’re doing well 😊.

Lee most people don’t understand that you have to stand by your sales and on cheaper cars it can be a minefield, nice to see an honest used car trader

Great to see so many cars are being sold, but I'm not surprised 👍 ps like the blue header for the pitch and yellow for the auction

Your off to a roaring start mate and you are making your own luck By putting in the hard work,try to look after yourself as all of a sudden You will be shattered before you know it. Always a joy to watch!! Simply put a great channel, Bill.

Maybe taking on a part-time mechanic might be the best way forward. You have to ramps,one could full-time prep ,while the other could take on bookings and services etc . Believe me, I'm no expert, but if you can carry on doing bookings, services, etc. The part-timer may become full-time. People will always need transport. Expansion is the way forward. I've watched your channel from the beginning, and I thoroughly enjoy it. I don't know a lot about business, but I've forgotten more about cars than most people know. I wish you all the best for the future 🙏

Hi Lee. Your capacity issue in the workshop is... a good problem to have, reflecting your demand from your increasing customer base. I always travel around the UK for my cars (from the NE), so a trip to Crewe might be on the cards (if you have what I want of course). Difficult to balance sourcing with prep on the sold and new stock, but looks like a great start to the Car Pitch!

I'm going to sign up to your facebook page..will need a cheap runaround soon

I bought a peugeot bipper tepee 1.3 tdi off a guy whos brother had it from new,sadly he passed away,on a 61 plate,still had the plastic on all the seats except the drivers,done 31,000 miles,anything that went wrong,or servicing he shoved it straight to the dealer,literally like new,he wanted 2,500 for it! I bit his hand off! I wanted it to put bike in as seats came out easily,ive now had it 18 months hasnt skipped a beat,now on 45,000 miles,and 12 years old!

Another great video, have you thought about getting an apprentice?, might work out.

Maybe, I do have a lad in mind

We've been to look at car's at main dealers recently to replace our car. Around £15.000 prices.its amazing how many cars on the forecourts are not prepared.. not clean..dents.damage to paint/ wheels. library photos of car but nothing like the car you are looking at.🤔..

I'd love that Polo I've got a 04 reg 3dr version 1.4 Auto with 85K on it. It's such a pain for the 3 doors. I bought it 5 years ago for £2300 with 37K on it FSH. Still worth strong money for a 2004 car. Our other car is a mk2 Mondeo 2.0 Glx auto with 39K that's only going up in value.

The i10, I thought I would have that if I needed a car, that's an ideal replacement for my Panda. Mind the Panda flew through it's test on Tuesday with 1 non advisory - surface rust on spring mounting so it's going nowhere for a few years yet. Then you stuck the dagger in by saying older people and reminding me that I turned 54 last week.......you 💩bag!! 🤣. This new business venture is working out the way I expected and you deserve that Lee, you're a sound no nonsense lad.

Lee, I can feel the intensity in your voice...oops brian, sorry 🤣 I assume its that bad!

It’s a hard job you do juggling everything

Good to see yr doing so well, but success always brings a new set of problems eh?

This year I purchased a astra 1600cc petrol mot for a full year i paid £2000 gave him cash 3 weeks later i had to scrap it it was a cat N car the guy never told me the engine was bad i phoned the guy i got it from no answer. The guy was from Stirling in Scotland. I won't name him probably a false name. The next time i need a second hand car im coming down to see you.

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🚘

Brilliant mate, your flying along, I've done a couple this week, been a bit quiet, 900 quid for that auto is for nothing, sky's the limit for little autos, I'd 2995 it for deffo, I'm the same as you, a bit cheaper and there gone, tbh I hate them to get to their 2nd wash.

Loved my Aygo Platinum, drove all over the country in mine. Do you know why private cars on Auto Trader are for sale hundreds more than the car value checker?

Not finding this over in Stockport. Not so leafy leafy Cheshire over here

Some people, myself included, are looking for a simpler low mileage car as a safe bet against the looming, potentially disastrous, electric period.

Another reason why old low mileage cars sell well is because there is less electronic crap on them to go wrong - and less expense to the motorist, despite their age.
