    “Was there any farting or swearing” Chris, you absolute legend 🤣🤣🤣. I had to go back to be sure I’d heard right. Best comments I’ve heard in years 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks lads.

    "Well just use it."
    Can't get more down to Earth than that! 👍

    Do us a favour, gentlemen, keep the live stuff going. You work so well together, and to hear you both makes great content. Must be great working with your buddy. Keep it up, your channel takes some beating. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

      2 cars I thought would never see the road again were the black fiesta which had an argument with a rail or two and the white Audi a 1 but they both lived to fight another day well done guys.

    Not related to this asuch I've just rebuilt a Peugeot partner 1.6hdi engine with a snapped cambelt only done it because of your videos showing what damage they do when they snap the cam lobs had moved alot side by side with the new one could see the difference thanks for videos they help alot

    Hello Rob and Chris, great little car, well repaired to an exceptional standard. Video has a PG rating , so it’s family viewing. The only garage in the UK with no ‘farting or swearing’ That sounds like a good T shirt logo- Salvage Rebuilds- no farting or swearing guaranteed. Thank you for taking the the time ton upload another video. Ged.

    As always guys a superb quality piece of work. Don't worry about Barbados...did it 40 years ago...too hot, too much sand, too expensive, and you can't escape due to it being surrounded by water. The only good thing was flying on a DC10!!!!
    At 4 grand what a superb cheap to buy / cheap to run daily for one lucky person. Keep well and safe unlike me with broken ribs and another torn intercostal. Cheers, Bob

  • @cinccave5459
    @cinccave5459 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I coiuldn't help but think when watching this vid how far Chris has come. When I first started watching you had to drag him in from on the camera and he was a mystery man. I think things changed after the "loo reveal". You and Chris work so well as a team. I can see you two in old age at your local laughng and scratching while sharing a pint.

    @chrishammett2176 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I know for you guys it’s not about the profit, though it is what keeps the lights on…..you continue to do the right thing, the right way and take us along for the ride….. I’m sure comments would have blown up as much if there had been fart! Keep them coming guys and have a blessed weekend

  • @kinross24

    Was so good watching the banter between you both instead of being time lapse, but the odd fart and swear would’ve been comedy gold!

  • @zerocool278
    @zerocool278 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Was nice to see the natural interaction between you and Chris even if it was a mistake also loved Chris's well use it we didn't fart or swear did we? It did make me chuckle and that's the first time I've done so in over a month so thank you.

  • @hoggmotorsport
    @hoggmotorsport ปีที่แล้ว +2

    "any farting or swearing...just use it then" 🤣🤣 Mint! Nice to see the natural side of the shop 👌 Rob you could also add about the insurance claim/non claim on the hit list.. If the insurance company decides to repair the car there's no record of that either, repaired in the same as your repairs... Although your attention to detail is a lot higher!! Enjoy the rest of your weekend guys 👍

    • @iankstanley
      @iankstanley ปีที่แล้ว

      With regards to the car being recorded I agree. Its only recorded if the car has been written off by the insurance company. If its repaired by the insurance company the there will be no record of the accident on the data base.

  • @welephant2013

  • @steve5772
    @steve5772 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I enjoyed the live bit, gave an insight into what you're both working on while you're working. Chris's question made me laugh, that's exactly what we're like at work when we suddenly remember we're working on a site that's open to the public.

  • @stephenricketts7764
    @stephenricketts7764 ปีที่แล้ว

    Honestly you two and technology, 'was I swearing?' asks Chris, just made me smile. Of course we are all learning every day. Anyway the car looks great now it is done but all those little bits and pieces do add up in costs.You still made a profit even if you can't book a holiday! Glad you talked about the insurance and explained it. My Sister worked in insurance some years ago so I was aware of how it worked but lets hope you have cleared up any confusion. Great video and interesting, thanks Rob and Chris once again.👍👍

  • @hugobloemers4425
    @hugobloemers4425 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    At a £1000,- pre-tax profit, it is more a work of love than a money maker. But somebody is going to get a very nice car and it is nice that this one was saved from the scrap yard.

  • @nickjones4917
    @nickjones4917 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Might be worthwhile mentioning difference between third party and fully comp when it comes to the HPI register

  • @memsybabe
    @memsybabe ปีที่แล้ว

    I just love the straight talking in your videos, and all the info you show. You mentioned that you'd obviously mention the damage even if the customer wasn't aware of it, but you know that the vast majority of people would just keep quiet about that. That's why I'm so pleased when you guys find a peach like that Audi A6. You deserve to come up trumps purely because of your honesty and the way you do things. Great vid as always, and another great little cars' been given a second chance 👍🏼.

  • @paulriggers1558
    @paulriggers1558 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    another way of putting it, all those databases are compiled using insurance company information, so if no insurance claim is made - no record
    "any farting or swearing", your halos are in danger of slipping boys...
    keep up the excellent work chaps

  • @andrewpemberton7295
    @andrewpemberton7295 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good point about accidents not recorded Rob. People who don't like buying a cheap categorised car will buy a car from a forecourt for full price that has been repaired by an insurance company and not recorded 🤔

  • @stephenrowlands843
    @stephenrowlands843 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sometimes a repaired car is a better buy than the "usual" car purchase because it might often include new or servicable components on the brakes, steering or suspension. Just beause a car is shiny and looks good it does not reflect the state of the mechanics of the car whereas with yours at least everything is known and upfront. Good job.

  • @peterdavies3862
    @peterdavies3862 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That has come out really well in the end - paintwork is excellent. Hopefully you will get paintwork done quicker now you have more painters? And good to see you are using both bays in the workshop. Am soooooo looking forward to seeing the Mercedes turned around!

    @gonecywers ปีที่แล้ว

    Very nice project, and a good result, guys! Nice car for someone for sure.
    I have to ask this question; is there anyone else in the U.K. that has the variety of skills and the integrity in the work they perform, other than Chris??!! He continues to amaze me in what he is able to do, and the end result when he's done. That doesn't mean that you don't have skills as well, Rob, it's just that Chris is one of those guys who can do so many things, so well, and is a "diamond" to have as part of an organization like yours.
    Such a pleasure to watch his work.

    • @andrewpemberton7295

    @pharoahegypt ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Those DRLs are surprisingly expensive for all Peugeot-Citroen vehicles. On my 308 there is also a lot of the unit hidden behind the bumper aperture, making for a much larger unit than I'd been expecting to have to squeeze into the hole.. Another successful job overall for you guys, & don't you just love it when a plan comes together? Hope you're not both coffee'd out by now.

    I understand about the accident situation I think where ppl are confused is when u do the car vertical part ur exact words are if its been in any accident it will show up but obviously if the insurance company hasn't had anything to do with it it's not going too show up

    I know you said it's nothing special but I think a lot of people like to see the 'run of the mill' standard cars being fixed up. Personally I love to watch them, or the older classics and generally don't watch the BMW, MERC and similar but that's my opinion :). Thanks as always for sharing :)

    @paulb1034 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    On the topic of write offs and the reigister, a taxi driver pulled out in front of me and damaged my motorbike beyond an insurer's economical repair. I was fully comp, my insurer inspected the vehicle and said they would write it off and made me an offer. Considering their low ball offer, my policy excess and the loss of my no claims bonus, I pursued a claim against the other party which allowed me to keep the vehicle and repair it myself, neither insurer ever owned my vehicle but one of them put it on the register as a Cat C.

  • @rhiantaylor3446
    @rhiantaylor3446 ปีที่แล้ว

    Clearly the older the car, the lower the eventual sale price so I would argue that the buyer should expect a few compromises in the cosmetic side of the work to put it back on the road - especially at the prices you charge. Over the years I have watched the channel I can only recall one occasion when you said - we won't fix that, we will give buyers the choice of a lower price or a pristine car at a higher price.
