Another day in the life of a humble car dealer, this time dealing with yet more warranty claims, picking up a rather nice car from Lotus and some tales of my childhood. Hope you enjoy!
Sadly after being in the job for over 40 years I know exactly what you mean , And they always come in 3 's , I often wonder to myself , why I just didn't become a Plumber or Electrician , And they hardly work weekends !!!!! , Keep Smiling Rob , It can only get better mate !!!
Hi Rob, that's a very Nice, BMW. Go on Callum, lovely Camper Van. That's some Maserati Garage. Great Channel Rob. That's a Beautiful Car you're driving. Even if it does need Breaking in, keep up the great work, pal. 🙏🙏🇮🇪👏👏👏👏
SOS warning light will be the backup battery that has gone flat costs around £50 for the part if its a BMW and sits under the headlining at the rear you can get to it by dropping the headlining slightly and fit it yourself.we use to fit loads at BMW.
Yep, SOS light will be the battery which has a lifespan of about 4-5yrs. Mine went last year on 2019 530d estate, luckily covered by warranty. (Lots of online videos showing how to do without having to pull down the whole headliner)
Staggering that someone is selling an Emira without even getting past the run in period. Trust me it absolutely comes alive over 4k revs. Make sure that the aircon works and that there are no paint bubbles on the doors (most common faults and fixed under warranty). It is, in my opinion, one of the best looking cars on the road and a stunning, stunning drive. Good luck with the sale.
I used to work for customs and excise for my sins and the only person that managed to buy a supercar (from memory it was an Aston Martin) and claim it as a business expense and claim his Vat back on the purchase was an electrician who dealt with high net worth individuals. He argued or rather his accountants argued successfully at tribunal that he had to a posh car because to turn up at some of these places in anything else just wouldn't do.....this was over 20 years ago though!
Got to be the .most expensive coffee. They charge you for anything at these garages. Bmw offer you cakes/biscuits/yoghurt etc....then say give us your money and by the way we have overcharged you!
Think I’d buy salvage and it’s all as is where is and sod all this warranty malarkey Either that or se heavy stuff to the trade only and any privates are forced to say they are trade and it’s sod as seen as scrap even if it’s a 70 grand luxury yacht
Really like your videos, I own a motorbike dealership we’re based in Copley Halifax called superbike specialists Ltd and some of the stuff we encounter on a daily basis blows the mind. Watch out for our channel in the next few months 😎👌🏼 Good v logs mate
Thanks mate, really appreciate that and I will absolutely look out for it. We have often considered doing bikes (I have a Monster.... bike that is) so they get me giddy! Hope business is good.
How much is she Rob. Had a deposit for 14-16 months on a Launch Edn cancelled. Ended up with a RCF. Crap… Don’t eat a bisC and Coffee in a SOR. Crap. That’s funny.
@@thelogbookccNeed drive an Emira. F product Lexus IS RC GS-F are all about the engine and quality manufacture. Don’t drive well enough. And still. They’re special things. Had the ISF for couple years back 2015 also
@@Mr.K01 One must marvel at your singular ability to parade a lack of discernment with such unwarranted confidence, as though crumbs were the zenith of your perceptive faculties. Pray, do continue, Mr. K01, if only to further showcase your spectacular misapprehensions-your intellect shines as brightly as your name suggests, which is to say, scarcely at all.
@@urbanpulsewalks Someone has been reading a thesaurus in an attempt to come across as a pompous arse...congratulations, it worked. P.s No need to be so butt hurt that you got called out for being wrong.
@@Mr.K01 How utterly quaint that you mistake the use of a broad vocabulary for pretension, as though words with more than two syllables are beyond your grasp. Your attempt at wit is as feeble as it is predictable, akin to watching a toddler brandish a butter knife, thinking it a dagger. The irony of your accusation is delicious-accusing me of being 'butt hurt,' when it is clearly you who bristles at the sting of intellect. One wonders if you’ve ever ventured beyond the shallow puddles of your own comprehension, or if you’re content splashing about in the murky waters of mediocrity.
