I have an SQ5 and it’s been tuned up a bit awesome machine ???, I did try an RS4 but it’s not got much torque .Wouldn't mind the RS6, or RS4 for that matter. Something really cool about a fast estate! ?

Very nice! Had a GTI myself, though just the van at the moment. Need to get something fun again, whenever this lockdown is over!I have an SQ5 and it’s been tuned up a bit awesome machine ???, I did try an RS4 but it’s not got much torque .

It won't be used that much so hopefully wont loose too much value over the years depending on what i get but i bought a nice van with some nice features,I've had the Jags, Audi's etc but currently have 2 vans and the Wife's Dacia Stepway ?

What van did you go for?It won't be used that much so hopefully wont loose too much value over the years depending on what i get but i bought a nice van with some nice features,
I reluctantly bought a new van even though my custom has only done 70k ?
Another transit custom just a limited with sat nav. Also I say new! It was 6 months old before my stalker jumps on me ??What van did you go for?
How do you find the SQ5?is it thirsty on fuel?I have an SQ5 and it’s been tuned up a bit awesome machine ???, I did try an RS4 but it’s not got much torque .
Very nice.Do you like the improvements and changes on this to your pre facelift model?Did you transfer your old tank or go for a completely new set up?Another transit custom just a limited with sat nav. Also I say new! It was 6 months old before my stalker jumps on me ??
Does about 38 to the gallon and it’s over 400 hp so Ime more than happy with that , it is a noisy ride and bit jiggly around town compared to the BMW M 3 and M5 though , been looking at the SQ7 but it’s a bit expensive ???How do you find the SQ5?is it thirsty on fuel?
I wanted to get one but opted for just the Q5 as my wife mainly drives it.
Latest franchisee takes my van and then I had a new grippatank system installed. Well it’s there now! Only change is the new 3D power up reels from waterworks and went for a 650 setup.Very nice.Do you like the improvements and changes on this to your pre facelift model?Did you transfer your old tank or go for a completely new set up?
That's like us with my wife having a Suzuki Ignis does this make me as old as you ?I've had the Jags, Audi's etc but currently have 2 vans and the Wife's Dacia Stepway ? Don't need the flash vehicles nowadays as I don't drive anywhere outside of work.
Mentally yes, I looked at the Ignis but decided it might be a tad on the small side if I needed to use it ?That's like us with my wife having a Suzuki Ignis does this make me as old as you ?
They are smaller than a Fiat 500 so you would have had to take the front seat out and sit on the back one ?Mentally yes, I looked at the Ignis but decided it might be a tad on the small side if I needed to use it ?
Yep no windows, no powered steering and pretty much a go cart.
I haven’t chosen this instead of a car it’s just a toy and that’s it really, I will still keep it for sunny days.
B16 WCF - Big Window Cleaning Franchise.
Defiantly the largest in Bedfordshire ? and I can see 10 vans on the road very soon indeed.
7 vans on the road and only just looking at being vat registered?.. I know nothing about franchises and I leave the paper work to my wife and accountant but that sounds like a strange one surely each van must be doing 60 k per year ?.7 vans and a twizzy.
I am a little undecided on what route to go now as I have a couple of options. One that really interests me is buying out a small 2 van operation in Hertfordshire area which is near me. Trouble is it will take some time to get the investment back as I only make back the royalty fee. I am thinking of doing a split of employed and franchising.
Next big headache is VAT registration but me and my accountant have a plan for that. Essentially i'm going to have a van on the road and the profit will just pay the VAT.
Top speed is about 55mph, its not that quick tbh but quick enough.
Easily dominating the area now which is good. One van last week picked up 5 new walk ups in a single day.
Latest franchisee takes a lot of my work so i can finally come down to a 3 day week. I will see how long that lasts though!
If they're doing £60k and he's taking 20% that's £84k a year.7 vans on the road and only just looking at being vat registered?.. I know nothing about franchises and I leave the paper work to my wife and accountant but that sounds like a strange one surely each van must be doing 60 k per year ?.
I don’t have a clue how franchising works but was just surprised that he wasn’t already vat registered , so I think Ime right in saying 7 vans at 60k a time is £420,000?? If they were employees working for him he would be earning considerably more than 20% so why would any one bother with it ?. What am I missing hear ?..If they're doing £60k and he's taking 20% that's £84k a year.
Buying a 2 man operation? have u ever bought work before? taking over another round can be more headache then actually building the round up yourself.7 vans and a twizzy.

I assume the franchise's are separate companies and he either takes a percentage or a fixed fee.I don’t have a clue how franchising works but was just surprised that he wasn’t already vat registered
Hes a franchise, not a company, two total different businss models, i looked into both of these, the best thing about franchising is that u dont need to pay VAT until u hit a high number of vans, i gathered this from my research regarding a franchise, but if he was a company then yeah he would be paying VAT with a few vans.7 vans on the road and only just looking at being vat registered?..
