INSPECTION

DISCUSSION

To outlay what Johnny can do you for, as you may just wish for him to look over an advertisement and/or investigate the car with various checks; this is £60.00 (fifty pounds plus VAT).

VIEWING

To view the car on your behalf or with you, it is £300.00 (two hundred and fifty pounds plus VAT).

TRAVELLING

To cover the time and expenses wherever the car may be, the total mileage is 60 pence (fifty pence plus VAT). An example: if the car is 100 miles away, resulting in a 200-mile round trip, it would be £120.00 (one hundred pounds plus VAT).

MISCELLANEOUS

For other minor miscellaneous costs, if need be, this is something that Johnny will discuss at the time. Examples include, but are not limited to, further in-depth investigations into the vehicle’s identification, finance, mileage, ownership, origin, use, and many other factors that may come into play.

CONSULTANCY

With a service of this nature, there is a chunk of administration and footwork involved in finding the right vehicle, so before Johnny starts work, he kindly requests a prepayment of £180.00 (one hundred and fifty pounds plus VAT) to cover the first stages of the inquisition.

On completion, the fee will be a straightforward 6% (five percent plus VAT) of the agreed price, minus the initial £180.00 (one hundred and fifty pounds plus VAT) up front payment and any other additional outlays we would have perhaps discussed prior.

BUYING OUR CAR

PRICE

All the cars for sale offer will always state a price for you. If there is no price, it is either because it is available soon, sold, or a wanted advertisement.

VIEWING

Everyone appears to arrange a viewing with us anyhow, but we will still state that we kindly request that all visual examinations be arranged at a time that suits everyone.

PAYMENT

Once an agreement has been made for a car, we kindly constitute a £1,000.00 (one thousand pounds) deposit, with the remaining balance to be paid within seven days. Once fully paid, we are happy for collection or delivery to take place within a further seven days. All payments are to be made via above-board bank-to-bank transfer; we do not accept nor have card payment facilities, so the only means of payment is BACS (Bankers’ Automated Clearing Services).

TAX

One neutral ground area is the discussion of road tax. Because it is not the same price for everyone and each car, it is a cost we kindly insist be paid for by the new owner. In return, if you had a part exchange, you rightfully get the refund (if applicable) for that road tax.

FINANCE

If you are interested in our finance options, we use a local, experienced finance broker, Mike Searle of MD Vehicle Finance, who has a panel of over 50 UK lenders providing finance options for all types of customer profiles and bespoke finance packages to suit your individual requirements.

DELIVERY

Option one is the car driven to you by Johnny himself, in which he will return to head office via his own means, most likely by bus, train, and/or taxi. To cover the time and expense wherever the car is required to be delivered, the total mileage is 50 pence plus VAT. An example: if the car is to be delivered 100 miles away, resulting in a 200-mile round trip, it would be £120.00 (one hundred pounds plus VAT).

Option two is having the car delivered to you on a trailer by Johnny himself. To cover the time, usage of the towing vehicle and trailer, and expense wherever the car is required to be delivered, it is the total distance in miles plus VAT. For example, if the round trip is 200 miles for Johnny, it would be £240.00 (two hundred pounds plus VAT).

WARRANTY

Our cars will always be prepared and ready to go so that you can enjoy peace of mind once the car is in your possession. However, a warranty on the car will be applied upon purchase that covers twenty-eight days of ownership or the first one thousand miles, whichever is reached first.

ASSISTANCE

Upon handover of the car, a comprehensive document contains advice should anything arise, along with a few tips for making sure that you get the very best out of your vehicle throughout ownership.

Johnny will thoroughly inspect the vehicle and will take into consideration any work that may be required to have the car to his level of standards and/or ready to place on the market.

Johnny will provide, if needed, a full written offer by email, and once you have agreed on a price, he will then fully pay for the vehicle and arrange to collect it at a time convenient to you.

DO WE STILL HAVE THE MAD MAX CAR?

That particular car is long gone—2014, to be precise.

WHY ARE WE NOT ON COMPANIES HOUSE?

This is not a limited company. It is run by an individual, a sole trader, who is a self-employed person who owns their entire business and runs it as a sole proprietor. Sole traders are the most popular form of business due to their simplicity, flexibility, and minimal legal requirements. As a sole trader, individuals have complete control over their business decisions, retain all profits, and have simplified tax obligations. In other words, there is no legal distinction between them and their business, which is why it is often said that sole traders are their business.
