Hi all,

Going to see a car tomorrow. The dealer works from his house apparently. Seems a bit odd, anyone else know of this sort of thing?

Company is called: greenwood motor company norwich. They have cars advertised on Autotrader and PH: www.pistonheads.com/sales/3381511.htm

Is this a common practice these days? Seemed odd that's all

Cheers!

I bought a car from a home based dealer not too long ago. Did it full time and only had a handful of cars in stock. His price was by far the cheapest because he gave a free 2 year warranty included in the sale and was a pleasant enough guy, so was a no brainer!
