- Okay so "World Famous" maybe a slight stretch of the truth, but people have commented from other countries so i'm thinking that makes this little car world famous right?? 🤪🤪🤪 Anyway moving on, this is the 4th and final instalment of this little cars journey with us, here's a catch up and conclusion of its entire journey from purchase to sale.
Our apologies about the lack of content the last month, we will endeavour to remedy that over the next few weeks.
As always we appreciate the support of the channel, all the best.

Can we just apologise for the lack of content over the last month and thanks for the messages asking if all is ok.....we are all ok.......appreciate loads guys and gals 👍👍👍👊👊👊
Glad you’re all ok. Good to see your update on the 1 series as well 👍
Were have yeez been 😢
I noticed the gap, but no apologies necessary. I know it’s hard to keep up a regular release schedule - especially when you’re working AND it’s school holidays. TH-cam isn’t life - family is. Nice to see you back though. 👍🏻
Good to have you back and not burned out Kev 😊 Did miss your content but it meant we had something to look forward to. Glad the business is doing well 😀
Great one mate really great to see you guys back, after your break.
Nice one Chris, appreciate the support 👍👍👍👊👊👊
Kev and Claire
Huge Thankyou for the new video was wondering where you’d got too . Bmw did look great after all your hard work, keep the shows coming take care.
Appreciate that comment Tara thats really kind, glad you like the channel 👍👍👍😊😊😊😊We will keep them coming 🤪
You know, Sometimes its not all about the profit, But the story. And what a wonderful group of people to share and continue the story.
Agree 100% William, really pleased the story was shared with all you lovely people 👍👍👍👍lets do some more 👍👍👍👍
Kev glad to see you and Claire back on the channel really enjoy the content you produce and the honesty you impart to us punters. A nice change to the usual stuff I watch and also interesting to see the other side although I am convinced you are one of a very few in the motor trade that seem to be so honest and down right sincere and truly enjoy what you do and that is shown in the extra mile you go to make your customers happy. I wish you every success you both deserve it and its such a pity you are so far from where I live otherwise you would be my first port of call. Who knows though with the power of tinternet who knows what may happen in the future.
Always had a soft spot for this little car. Glad you sold it in the end. It went to a good home, and you got out of it with your shirt still on, which is a result in anyone's book. It's not always about the profit, sometimes it does your soul a bit of good to save a car that deserved a second chance. Auction Fever is a cruel mistress. We've all done it, but it's no bad thing to get a gentle reminder every once in a while; Set a price in your head, and don't clap beyond it. If another chap is bidding you up, let him have it. God, the stories I could tell about car auctions back in the good old bad old days.
Ha....sounds like you've been here before Matthew, completely agree though, sometimes a car deserves a new lease of life even if the financials don't make sense, I'll try not to make this mistake again though, nice one Matthew.
@@VisionPrestigeCars I've certainly had my fingers burnt a few times. It was Citroens that always bit me on the arse. Never made a profit on any of them, and I still have nightmares about mineral oil and suspension spheres. Montegos and Bluebirds were always the kindest to me. I did alright out of those. They kept the wolf from the door. Things were easier in the 80s & 90s. People had realistic expectations, not like these days. Couldn't do the job now. Too many electronics, and too many idiots.
Great story. You should look to get someone on board to prep cars. If you are turning them over that fast you can’t do it all Kevin. I’m sure you could get someone upto your high standards. Keep
Up the great work
Wise words there David, you are right, something needs to change for sure 👍👍👍👍
Nice to see you back, James got a bargain there, now his son has it time to sell him another one😀
I like your thinking Mr Trev, I'll try not to get sucked in this time though when im buying 🤪🤪🤪
keV I am so glad your business is going great the way you make these videos so interesting makes it a pleasure to watch. Do what you can with content and don't burn yourselves out, it wasn't that long ago you were starting to get the lot up and running. I also think every now and then do more challenges between you and Claire buying cars. You put so much work into these cars no wonder you can get enough stock.!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi kev & claire,definitely no need to apologise for lack of content and whilst i would love to see 1 or 2 videos a week i also understand how busy you are and how much time and effort it takes to make and edit these videos so i thankyou both for that,fantastic ending for the 1 series and has gone to a lovely family who hopefully will look after it,atleast it wasn't an epic fail kev and hopefully over the 4 videos on it it atleast gained you new followers and subscribers which is definitely a positive,can we just a minute to say well done to claire for getting the service history which I'm in no doubt saved you from a loss forsure,thankyou guy's for all you do👏👏🙂👍
Good to see you back. Well done with the BMW. That was a clean engine inside especially considering the mileage. That’s what everyone needs to see and appreciate never not change your oil and buy the brand s oil and filter s and not cheap rubbish. Oil is totally the life of your engine.
Looking forward to your next video thanks Kev
Completely agree with you there Andrew, people don't appreciate how important oil changes are.....that little one series will go on for years now 👍👍👍🤪🤪🤪Nice one Andrew 👍👍
Great to see you and Claire back again. Seeing your video back again on my Friday night feed made me smile. Thanks Kev. 😊
Nice to hear you are so busy, That was a wonderful journey and highlight of just how transparent you can be and how much you put into your car prep making sure everything goes out as good as you can make it ( within reason) and how well you treat people.
Seeing james come back and trust you as a dealer speaks volumes.
Great to see you back and all is well, great video, and content cheers😊😊
Well done. I’m sure the genuine hard work will pay off. Enjoy videos. 👍🏻
Great story and a great ending. Made good content, missed your channel, looking forward to more adventures in your car enterprise. Good to see you both back.
Good to have you back Kev.
Good to see you back.
Well done detective Claire 😂 car was really nice. Great work guys
Everyone deserves a break, in their private & working lives. Looking forward to the next one. Cheers 👍.
hi like your video keep them coming wat about the jag thanks
Great video and looking forward to your next one. You all do a great job
Only just started our business in January and have found it difficult. It’s sometimes just pure bad luck. We bought a Micra that should have just gone straight up for sale but found out it had a sat nav issue. Replacement audio system £3k. A few weeks and many headaches later managed to find someone to fix the unit. But still meant we broke even.
Hey, appreciate the comment, tell me more about your business, have you just started in the motor trade??? Keep grinding if you have, there is no other business out there with the roller coaster of emotions this business gives....it is hard.....but I still love it 🤪🤪🤪👍👍👍
Sorry Goose......"we"still love it 🤪🤪🤪
@@VisionPrestigeCars Yes! Hubbies fault as he was the one who wanted to do it. Small scale cars sales with just 4 or 5 vehicles for sale at a time. We are just learning the popular cars and prices we need to sell at. Although we do have a couple different price scales at the moment. Everything is a learning curve Kev!
Oh and I am the auction bidder not hubby 🤣🤣
Good to see you back 💪👍
Appreciate that bud 👍👊Have a good weekend 👍👍👍👍
Hello from Ireland again, Kev. My God, that Mini Convertable is bloody gorgeous. Oh, I remember the first video on the "One Series". It's a very clean motor. It's a lot of Car for the Money, Kev. You have a lovely bit of Stock in the Yard. Mercedes, Mini, VW Beetle, lol. Kev, your Preparation work is Second to None, brilliant. Anyway, say Hello to Claire from Ireland. I can't wait for another Video. Maybe one on that BMW Z4 would be great. Stay Safe and Sell, Sell, Sell. Lol. 👌🙏🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@@liamegan4303 See Liam you've proved my title......"world famous" proven right there 🤪🤪🤪Thanks for the comment as always Liam, you would have liked that little Mini Cab, it was a cool little car. All the best Liam, have a great weekend 👍👍👍
@VisionPrestigeCars Oh, Definitely World Famous, Kev. A True Professional through and through. Mate
Wow, thats amazing about the service history, I really pleased that you solved that one, Well done Claire.
I was looking at your channel this week looking for new content, though I missed out😢
It really is a result, it was the guys wife's car, he said that car needed for nothing and that the only thing it never had was a timing chain 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
You hadn't missed out Alan, its me slacking 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Hi Kev & Claire 😃 welcome back 😂 The forecourt won’t look the same without the little red Series one and the little Mini but onwards and upwards. Fantastic story about the search by Claire for the history and a great result for James the new owner who knows what he wants and good luck to him and the little BMW also his son who has taken over the car 😂😂. Thank you both for a very entertaining video and please keep smiling Tom
Just in time. I was just jumping in the trusty Dacia to drive up and see if your all ok 😊. Good to see you both, bm looks beautiful! Have a lovely weekend Kev and Claire 😊
Ha!! The trusty Dacia 💪💪💪💪Thanks for the thoughts Brian, appreciate it 👊👊Have a great weekend too....see you on the next one 👍👍👍
Nice one guys 👍👍
Nice one Stevie, little shout out to you on our lates vid 👍👍👍
@@VisionPrestigeCars Thank you guys really appreciated 👍
Good result in the end and even if you broke even it should pay dividends on future customers who watch this and well done to Claire getting all the service info, that turned the whole tale
Hello kev
Great channel
Is that a Volvo for sale behind red bmw …
Can’t see it on website
Thanks
Clive.
Hey Clive, yes we had an 09 V70 D5 R-Design traded in on a 1 series BMW......we prepped it and could have sold it 10 times......mad really sorry it's sold 👍👍👍
@@VisionPrestigeCars
Hi kev
Thanks for information
I’m big fan V70 D5
When I see all the hard work you put in to selling cars
This V70 is going to be good 👍
I had a 118 auto 2 door in Glacier Silver I bought brand new in 2012. As I recall it was just shy of £21K at the time all in - It was a lovely little car, just a peach.
Watched a few of your videos and now a subscriber (as of today!), thought you sounded a bit Suffolky, but think any more at the time. Really like the way Claire and you come across on the videos. Just watching this video and saw the Ipswich code on the van and googled you! Will call in and say hello at some point from a Bramford boy!
Good to see you again. Thought the BMW had gone elsewhere. Was not a good buy but you win some and you loose some. Your website is a little confusing as you seem to have more sold vehicles than on sale. Surely you should put what is available first and what has sold thereafter?
Thats brilliant news about the Bmw. Had wondered where you had been.
Nice one William 👍👍👍We will get some more content out soon 👍👍👍
Another great video keep them coming 👍
Phew, you’re back 💪
Better late than never I hope Craig....appreciate it 👍👍👊👊👊
Missed you
Ha!!! Appreciate that John 👊Have a good weekend 👍👍👍
love it carry on👍
You go far beyond the normal "ah well, cant be arsed to look further" that most dealers will do, a credit to independents'
Appreciate that Micheal, nice one 👍👍
What a journey!
Thanks for the support Terry and the message to see if we are ok 👍👍👊👊That was real kind 👊👊👊
Great little journey on this car, thanks for being here for the whole thing 👍👍
No profit, but a local guy showing a local car to neighbours and friends is advertising to your local community that would cost ££££ if turned into adverts, bill boards etc.
Nice Brian I like your positive thinking.......I like seeing it drive past as well 🤪🤪🤪👍👍👍
Great series, very interesting. Can you tell me which video had the guy with the mini you went to their house, i think they had a yellow car as well. They talked about not de-fog the headlights I wanted to show a few people.🙏🤝
Glad you liked it Alan, the video your talking about is the one with the red Mini Cab and the white Brabus Smart car on the thumbnail 👍👍👍👍Nice one 🤪
@@VisionPrestigeCars many thanks 👍
No need to apologise mate
Pleaded you sold it.theres always 1 what loses money .but your make it up on another 1.
Ha!! Nice one Brian 👍👍👍👍🤪🤪🤪
