acar2go 1 year trading anniversary.

I should have posted an entry yesterday as I have been in Business and trading as acar2go for one year as of the 17th July 2009.

What a great year I have had, Thanks go out to all of my customers for their business and for the incredible amount of referrals that I have had from them.

It's not rocket science really all you have to do is offer great used cars at great prices, present them as well as you can, deal with concerns or problems quickly and efficiently and do exactly what you say you will do every time.

I have this philosophy that I treat my customers as I like to be treated myself, an old addage I know, but how many people especially in Dealerships, talk the talk but don't walk the walk.

Answer, " most of them" the biggest comment that I get time and time again is that when my Customers enter Dealerships they feel like they are viewed as a number with £££ signs attached to them.

Obviously I want to sell my used cars as much as the next person, however even when they make a decision to buy from me, I ask them a final question, "Are you sure" only when they answer in the affirmitive do I then take their deposit.

I have sold cars for over 20 years now and have taught many other people to successfully do the same, customers want to feel comfortable with the person that is about to put them in debt for the next 3-4 years, they have to believe that you can be trusted and want to deliver the very best product and personal service that you can to them.

I do exactly that, day after day, every time, Guaranteed.

If you are looking for a super deal on great used car then do yourself a favour, come and see me.

Until then.

Thanks for looking in again.

Cat C & Cat D ladies re-visit me again.

Hello to all my readers.

I had another visit from the two lovely ladies that are still looking for a car, Mother and Daughter although you wouldn't have guessed it, more like Big Sis helping Little Sis.

Anyway they told me that they are still looking for a car only a bit more cautiously now since our last meeting.

If you read a bit further down you will see my last entry regarding Cat C & D cars.

They have looked at so many cars and told me they have wasted (Not) money on loads of car checks, they have done this by logging onto my website www.acar2go.co.uk and following the car check link, if they had not carried out these checks they may have fallen victim to the Scum that prey on people that do not exercise this level of due dilligence.

The above is not a reference to Ray Winstone when he appeared in the Film of the same name "Scum" with the famous lines, Where's your tool, What tool, this F*****g tool"

I could do without him landing on my doorstep; so I hope that we are clear on that Ray.

This would have cost them an awful load of money as they could have bought a written off car which would be worth @ 25% of what they paid.

Do not buy at the roadside, these cars are very often un-taxed, un-insured, have little or no service history, are likely to have been clocked or have had serious accident damage.

There are different stories that you will be told, we moved house and lost the service history, we have the last MOT that proves the mileage is correct, it doesn't matter! if the car has not been serviced in years then you are buying somebody elses trouble.

Do you think that these people are just selling the one car that you are looking at? look at the other cars in the surrounding layby's they will probably have the same phone number in the window, also when you called them and asked about the car that they have for sale did they ask, "which one"?

Do you think that these people will offer you any kind of Warranty? do you think that they are insured or that they will pay tax and VAT on the profit from the car that they sell to you? do you think that if you get a problem small or large that they will give a stuff?

Be clear on this, all they actually care about is getting your money, after that you are on your own, you don't even have an address to get back to them on, unless they sleep in the side of the road, the mobile number that you have for them is probably just a pay as you go mobile sim card number which they ditch and change after they get too many complaints.

If you want to buy a quality used car with a warranty, that is RAC Standard checked before sale, from an Honest individual that has a Limited Company which can be verified at Companys House, is a member of the Federation of Small Businesses, is registered for VAT and pays Tax and National Insurance and incidentally will look after his customers before and after the Sale than come and see me at acar2go.

Do the right thing, you know it makes Sense.

Thanks again for looking in.

Kind Regards
