for the financing deal, indeed it is for three years, but apparently Im sure it was signed around the last week in april, so the price in 2.9years.....well, 75-80p potentially..... Mabye in 2.9years someone will wish to employ me, then I can atleast be able to afford 2 shares here ! IF your looking longer term, even though the finance will be up for renewal, I would certainly think that the market place will have eased, the cycle will have started again, and PDG will be able to negotiate better than the current 3.5 over libor, so potentially the annual £35mill a year cost of finance could be alot less, and thus the headcount reduction will then come fully into bottom line. I think Ill go see if the job centre offer any courses on finance, might just help :)

Atlast, someone that actually talks some sense ! Not only that, but someone it would seem who has some "apprent knowledge" of PDG. Id go as far as to say "apparently" you either work for PDG or know someone who knows someone who knows someone....... If I could cobble together the £995 to buy a runabout, I would have a look at one, however, that would deppend on whether the 5 at the end was down to UCM pricing, or whether that was a stroke of luck having a 5 on the end.... As for the French aspect, I wouldnt know where to begin as I barely grasp american, especially being so close apparently earlier this year to being bankrupt but actually having plenty of money in the bank... Confused , cryptic, to everyone else, this probably is, however, blueman, I think youll know where this is coming from :) How are 500 sales, doing many arbarths ? :)

I am offcourse answering my own question regarding the buy, but a T20 wont come into play until the end of July :) Their is still plenty of time in July for this too swing back and forth, as always its all dependent on your "terms" , short med or long. That said, over the next 3 years, a buy and hold will do well here, one of the first sectors hit by a recession, but one of the first back out ! Those were the days HB, when you could get a train and sleep in the concert grounds for a shilling and sixpence :) Blue, I can only dream of owning a ford, at cost plus £250 or even better, to be strangled by the new tax brackets on company cars..... Oh to dream lol

latest price increase over all ford models came in July 2nd blueman , so you are correct their ! The market is very volatile so dont discount further drops just yet :) Equally, dont discount further support just yet so this may very well move up the way. I would expect to see this step up purely on the fact that buying will start shortly on T-20`s for the pending results. Their is no doubt that PDG`s cost cutting moves last year have helped, what will be interesting too see is how much of the head count reduction has been offset by the renegoitated financing deal. Working capital however "apprently" has been strong, and expect to see as good a balance sheet as PDG has put out for a long time...."apparently" :) Theirs chalk and cheese, used cars have performed well at the first quarter, whilist new cars have been decent for the 2nd, aftersales are holding up "apparently", and costs are being held to a minnimum "apparently". However, as Im on the dole and get by on my giro weekly, then I would only be guessing here :)

Half year results are due on August the 18th. From a completly non informed point of view, and whilist I do hold Slimchance to his £17m "prediction" for Q1 alone, I think that is a tad bit overexhuberent for a quarter. However, with that said, I beleive results will be inline if not slightly better than current Analysts say. They certainly wont be what Slim is predicting and I can tell you why very easily.... If results were as were being told, then PDG would have to RNS the results being as they are over a certain threshold. However, although Im still waiting for 26-27p, I am currently mulling over buying in 30p or below as I beleive the half year results may prove decent and show PDG are making the correct moves. I was also thinking of topping up on my 16m shares, however, as I my Ford GT doesnt qualify currently for the scrappage scheme, I need to generate some extra funds to purchase a new Fiesta :)

Good evening ! Bit of rain here today so I hope it meant you got a day off from feeding the flowers :) Slimchance, that is why I work for someone else....who exactly do I work for ? :) I know, I know people know, but I also know you dont know, for all you know, I could be Trevor Finn, or Martin Casha, or Sir Nigel, or , just me ! Unfortunatly Im not as informed as you, I have no clue what PDG actually do, do they sell washing machines or such like ? As for 26-27p, it may still very well come, but then it might not. It has held 31p very well. As for inch, inch is still a way to go, its called, you know, diversity, and will still perform very well over a mid to long (but then Im reckoning your mid to long is what 3 days ? ) As Im not very well informed slimchance, tell me, to the end of may, how well did EH Blue and Red divisions perform in relation to prior year or in relation to plan ? As Im sure you are so well informed, you will be able to come up with the numbers very quickly....... Thought not :)

HB`s on the iphone. Or, this amazing heat spell were just enjoying right now is wilting you unlike your plants :) So, half year accounts getting done right now at PDG, what do we expect. Given theirs a £17million profit for Q1, Id imagine were looking at what, a half year profit of say, £35million ? :) lol I do note however that apparently the share save scheme at PDG has been oversubscribed, and that over 1/4 of the staff have taken the option up, albeit they have been cut back in their allocations. By my calcualtions, approx £5m at todays price of shares over the next 3 years, and thats excluding those that may have chosen to go for 5/7 year periods !

Those 2x500K shares and a 300K block were all buys..... :)

Exactly what youd call earth shattering really. It is true to say that " we have also continued to improve our working capital management routines and maintain focus on cash generation", but then thats what happens when apparently people reinvent the wheel week in week out. The basis of strong cash flow and working capital management is grounded in the basics, get your debts paid, on time, and your stock turned....... :)

At work, unfortunatley in the midst of posting the payroll so atleast 1 of us is productive! I note saying to tipper dave this morning that now he was back, I was hoping for him not too tank slv..... Lol. Typing on phones really does not help, unfortunatley I can't login on the works laptop or t'internet police will be round :)

Is that like swingbat, or so we called it back in 'nam... I actually won the last championship at my brothers barbeque only 2 weeks back, and can I just say how I'll I felt for all the physical activity :)

change comes in 2nd july I beleive HB....Only the third increase this year from Ford !! They wonder why their struggling to shif large cars when a focus 1.8 diesiel is priced at £18.5K !! But then its all good, as Ford have now started apparently putting "large car objectives" onto dealers....

MOB-baby, your a braver person than I too be in the banking sector, however, if your timescale is a longterm view and are in round current prices, then that will do pretty well. I currently do have a holding in Inch , best run motor group of them all so for me its a no brainer. My major play right now is in platinum, namely SLV, and what do you know, take over offer today ! :) Oil/Gas sector seems to be coming round now aswell, whilist sitting on a red in AST, I do beleive that it will come good over the next year or two so at current pricing, Id say have a look. I also note LGO has come down and should have production results due "imminently" so a good time to top up or even buy in. Their are several others I am in, BSST is currently one, which after some fairly marketish results had a nice drop yesterday so if youve got a year, another reasonably decent buy. If you get bored of all that, you could always tuck some EML away, watching paint dry is more fun that holding in their short term, but long term, will do fine. I have a few others that Im looking to get into, and unfortunatly waiting for people to get into so cant quite say what they are (dont want to spoil the party for those waiting !) As for PDG, well, everyones sick of me in here ....well all apart from HB :) Wait for 26-27p, itll come, if it doesnt, well its still over priced at 32p ! (But what do I know :) ) Hows your portfolio holding up MOB-baby

to see the Inch results stem the red here for the last few days. It was also quite comical too read a few few posts early doors on inch apparently not liking the trading update....which trading update they were reading was abit beyond me as for me it was above market expectation, apparently the market shared my view ! I do however maintain my hold for 26/27p before a buy in here :)

Sat and watched this again today, Looks like youll have done pretty well at that short from 38p PB ! (Although I suspect you could have left it open till 27p) I think were probably looking at a 26p buy in, so Im just going to sit and watch till this hits those levels. Hope you had a decent day hillbilly

This was a fun one today ! Err...urm.... lmao :) Bit of shifting about on the portfolio resulted in getting out and back in at 24.7 with a net loss of about £10.... FJP...Remind me to go on holiday every june from now till Im in the ground :)

I dont almost go through a red light whilist talking on a mobile to some chav whos busy at work :)

On your share holding conversion rate, then I think theyll be sending you two postage stamps....Ill just be getting sent the saliva needed to lick yours :) And hey, Im always cautious you know that lmao

rate, Im informed Im using the wrong one lmaoooooo (I used 13.1) Still, their or their abouts
