    Accepting one-off customer payment by Credit Card...?

    That’s my point though. Tell them you’ll charge them an admin fee if they don’t pay by bank transfer. They will always pay by bank transfer. “The admin fee is nothing to do with the card fee’s sir, it’s simply to cover our admin. If you pay by transfer, we have no admin so we’ll pass the saving...

    Accepting one-off customer payment by Credit Card...?

    Whenever a customer wants to pay on a credit card I just charge them a £25 admin fee. “Oh f**k that I’ll transfer it in to my bank and do a bank transfer to you” Lovely, a thank ya.

    I have had them in the past but to be honest as Nancy points out, they make a s**t load of mess. Which you end up having to clean up again. The last one I actually paid for was stupid money, £260 iirc?? From Autosmart. Then when that broke I bought a £30 one off eBay and it was the same just a...

    Don’t do it in your car! You have nice carpets, this is only for the cheap tight woven nylon type carpets. As found in Fiestas and Citroens etc.

    Loads of people do it. I like Autoglym aerosol as it’s a bit more tame. Autosmart do a one called midnight and it’s probably the best, but only available in trigger application and it gets everywhere. Not ideal.

    I didn’t need to on this, it in the absolutely fucked stuff, a tin of satin black paint or a black carpet dye works wonders. Less is more, but it’s a godsend on the bangers.

    A bit closer, to show just how f**king horrible it was and how s**t poverty carpets are for trapping dirt. (honestly, I must have called the previous owner every derogatory term known during that. I f**king hate her.)

    AG interior cleaner is the absolute nuts. Smells so good too. Don’t use it on leather though, it pulls the dye out.

    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    @lemonnobby - I’m sure you mentioned something about blue coolant?? Or type D being NLa??

    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    Yup. I emptied mine, flushed it, ran it with just water in it for about half an hour. Basically until the fan kicked in, then drained again and flushed what I could then put the right stuff in. Don’t know if that’s the correct method but it worked and it hasn’t blown up. 😂 (My car uses orange...

    Never mix coolants. It can crystallise (sp??). Using a different one is fine, just make sure you flush out all of the old stuff first.

    Where to buy numberplates online?

    We make our own but if we need an odd size we always use Fancyplates. So much easier than driving to the local motor factors with paperwork and then trying to park… f**k all that.

    How much %age increase!

    We sold a VW sharan to a guy yesterday that had exactly this. Bin lorry went down the side of his 2018 Sharan and damaged 2 doors. No other damage. Our Bodyshop place would have charged £800/1000 to fix it no bother. But because it’s insurance and they need brand new parts the doors had to...

    How much %age increase!

    This. I always buy the cheapest nastiest shittest policy I can find, just to stay legal and nothing more. They are absolute bandits and will gladly take our money but when we need them they just bend us over and go in dry. f**k ‘em. My insurance is up for renewal end of next month. Broker...

    Restoring Little Bluey - my 182 FF ClioSport in Racing Blue

    I find unplugging and plugging in the uch numerous times (10+) usually gives a temporary fix - this will then confirm if it’s the UCH at fault. Only if it twice admittedly but both times that ‘fixed’ it so I knew it had to be sent off for repair.
