Car Sales People

[garrardrj]

So anyone in Car sales on here can give me some idea what a Car salesmen earns working for a dealership , like Skoda Audi Bmw Vw etc ?
Somebody elsewhere is suggesting that a 22 year old is earning £100k pa , now i am always sceptical about peoples earnings having met many serious exaggeraters in my life

12k plus commission at local Vauxhall dealers. 35k estimate.

Depends if you're a good salesman or not

So if you are a good salesman . Most basic salaries are around £10 - £18k , dependent on what brand you are selling but is £100k actually achievable . Luxury brand possibly but a premium brand like merc/bmw/audi/vw ?

People vulgar enough to talk about their salary are generally the type that would also inflate it.

Pic P60 with the pertinent bits erased and "hello garrardrj" would suffice.

£100k as a dealership salesperson sounds bit high even for the luxury marquees..

VW /Audi Id guess at £35-55k? add maybe another £15-20k for luxury.

I very nearly worked at Audi before I went to uni and I got told told £25k-30k + commission if I remember correctly

I imagine they make around 3% commission so to make it up to 100k from an 18k basic You'd need to sell 2.7m worth of cars and that's assuming there's no commission cap

Plus commission selling on finance, mobility cars, options, servicing etc etc

I work for macklin motors (the scottish equivalent of Bristol Street Motors) and our salesmen get 12k basic + whatever commission they earn.. I'm tempted to ask what it can equate too on a good month but it's a little nosy

I have heard some people were earning basic plus commission around £50-60k but selling like mad warranty paint protection finance alloy wheel warranty all various crap and working hard on making these sales on day off and everything but i also heard of people earning £20k inc everything
