In this video I visit a Land Rover main dealer. I go shopping on Autotrader. I visit a Copart location where they let me view a stolen and recovered SVR as well as a BMW M3 in the coolest colour I've seen. And I end up buying myself a crash-damaged Range Rover. As you've come to expect from one of my videos - the car is one of the cheapest for sale in the UK!

Ex-copart customer here. They don't let you view. Then you come to realise the car is not as described, they refuse to rectify the situation and try to use every excuse to try and make you feel you are responsible for their false description. Avoid. Sued them in the end and got my money back.
Yep having dealt with them as owner of a damaged car they 'valued' steer clear of co-part. crap experience.
They let you veiw if you are a famous youtuber...Matt Armstrong has the run of the place , lol.
The pyro fuse has gone on the M3 that's why it doesn't start. When any airbag goes on most modern cars they have a fuse that cuts power to the starter of the engine to prevent any further damage. It shouldn't be too much to get engine started. Hope this helps!
Can bridge it
The fuse is located where the battery is in the spare wheel bay. Push the fuse back in
You'd be surprised how many TH-cam channels I've stopped watching after they got Lambos. I hope you stick with more down-to-earth vehicles. Thanks for the content!
Good to know. If I ever get a Lambo I'll just have to drive it in secret 😂 To be honest I prefer more normal cars anyway!
I wholeheartedly agree!!!
Someone has been looking for a tracker in that RR.
Shame that Crap part doesn't treat us collection/transport drivers with the same respect. They seem to forget we ARE ALSO CUSTOMERS as they leave us sitting around for ages waiting to be loaded while 'favorites' push in even though we are booked in with an app. Still don't expect much else from Yanks...
Hey Nino, I’m halfway through the mini series and I just wanted to say that you have put a ton of effort into each and every video of yours. Thank you for your great content and it’s not long till you’ll be at 100k subs. All the best
Really appreciate that 🙌
Can't wait for part 2. I just stumbled on the channel this morning via the s type jag and can see that we are going to be spending a lot of time together as you're doing something the average man could have a go at unlike the channels you mention in this vid. Good work fella. It's nice to find someone who likes to live in the real world.
The BMW has probably got the thermo fuse that's gone stopping it from starting. It's a fuse that blows in an accident to stop fires.
Hi Nino, just fellow upon your channel by accident trying to get some info on Mini repairs. Ended up binge watching loads of your videos for 4 hours. Love your content, keeping it real with some humour thrown in.
I have loved seeing the old cars getting a new lease of life.
Keep the videos coming.
This looks like a great project!! Can’t wait to see how it goes 👍👍
Hello Nino, I am watching your videos from Canada. I'm not a mechanic at all and do not attempt my own repairs. I really am enjoying your videos and thinks it great you take on such mighty projects. Hope you do more in the future.
Fair play! Looking forward to this one, looks like a windscreen, bonnet, wing, interior deep clean/repair, external paint correction/polish and a damn good service. I'd go all in on this one and make it a six part series. Get the windscreen new but you should be able to source a good condition wing and bonnet in the correct colour given a bit patience and perseverance. Best of luck with it!!!
Cheers mate - looking forward to getting my hands dirty with it
Hi. I've just found you in the last 2 days. I've watched all the videos ( I've been off work) I have to say that you are an inspiration, I class myself as a home mechanic but would absolutely crap myself at some of the jobs you've taken on. I like your enthusiasm and love the fact that you're supported by your misses. So far the rs6 has been my favourite but I've watched all the mini videos and a have to salute your perseverance. The money ypu must be spending just to entertain us is terrific. I wish you all the success in the world and please keep making videos. You've given me the drive to finally take on a project. Please start a patreon on get some merch so I can help out with the bills. Good luck buddy.
Gary R
Looks a very interesting project, this is going to be another great watch, cannot wait. Good luck
Thank you very much!
Wow 😮, you have really taken on some trouble there 😂, not only is it a Range Rover 🤦🏻♂️,it’s one with extensive roof damage !
I wish you lots of luck, and I am eagerly awaiting the next episode 👍🏻
Hi i stumbled accross your channel, and honestly i think its fanatstic and good luck for the future. it was the l322 the reason for following your channel, as i have the the tdv8 to (but in the best colour black) great cars and the tdv8 is the best i have owned (ive had 6 previously) then watched the s type jag video, (i too had one of these, yes black too) and realised that you are from my home town. im now in sunny great notley. love cars love your channel, i used to own the car carer detailing in Witham, if you ever need any advice on the cleaning side, im happy to help. keep up the great work.
Loved this one. Can’t wait for the work to start on this beast
Range Rover looks ok. I can't wait for the repair videos of this car. Greetings from Slovenia.
This is one series I'm really going to enjoy 😉
I like it.
My immediate concern is the roof line to the windscreen.
Love the videos mate, I’m also a chelmsfordian😂 love to take you for a spin in my f430 or 911 when the weather improves…respect for the top shelf videos
Spent the last couple days thinking about buying one of these so can't wait for next video
I've watched all your content over a few days (loved them all by the way) - glad to see another one again! What happened to the RS6? Would be keen to find out where you are at with that one too. Keep up the cracking content!
Cheers mate. Next video on the RS6 coming soon!
Ayeee another video 😁 and another project! I love watching your videos mate kind of inspired me to buy my own car that's abit of a project lol keep up the work mate be good to see the range loving its lease of life again!
Cheers bud 🙌
Great channel. Just watched 3 videos and you have this youtube thing down .
Love it,
What a disaster of a yoke to buy, it will make great content, I’ll have me popcorn ready keep them coming
Really looking forward to this , that’s some damage, reminds me of a time someone threw a fridge off some flats as my pal was driving past , it went through the screen and landed on my lap , yes it hurt just a bit.
Hi mate, really enjoy your videos. Looking forward to this fix! Maybe one of these days I’ll be brave enough!
Just go for it mate! You don't want to go years down the road with those kind of easily-fixed regrets 😉
Right now, I can't decide if you are a courageous man or just insane!! One thing is sure, you must have been so nervous waiting to see it. Really like your channel. Good show!
I can't decide either haha
This Range rover will be your 'Cadillac in the field moment', mark my words. The Cadillac in the field was what sparked a growth for Derek, at vice grip garage. 😊 Kudos, mate! Keep it up. We're with you!
Yes mate, this series is gonna epic, you'll smash it though I'm sure!
Cheers mate - let's hope so
Good buy nino.. You'll soon have that rangie sorted out pal 👍 😊
Cant wait till the Rovers sorted or the zephyr/zodiac video's are out..😊
Can use your fence paint to touch up the paintwork, looks a perfect match 👌
Superb purchase, looking forward to vids. Plus an update on Rover, Merc and Audi RS
Update video coming soon
They ripped all the dash and boot panels out the SVR looking for a tracker device.
At last! I’ve been patiently waiting for you to upload a new vid.
Looking forward to seeing this build.
I love these they look so good outside a council house! Pure chav wagon.
I recon you'll smash it out dude, can't wait to see it :D
I couldn't ever imagine spending 144k on something that could potentially be worth 70k in a few years and less than 10k in a few years more.
Buy a house and a Mondeo 😂
This is sound financial advice
Let's be honest, if you've got 144k to spend on a car, you've probably got multiple houses and maybe even a few mondeo's😂
Looking forward to this one! Ive got an 08 RR tdv8 on 113k that's become a family member over the years, a really lovely machine.
I've got the same car and love it. Deffo a keeper
That's good to know. Are they as unreliable as everyone always says?
@@NotEconomicallyViable Definitely not unreliable. If they are serviced properly they are very reliable. LR service schedule should go in the bin. Change engine oil more often to protect the turbos, flush the gearbox oil every 40k and ALL other fluids. Coolant is often ignored, over time it loses it’s corrosion inhibitor leading to leaks in the various coolers. My MOT tester had one from 20k miles and sold it at 270k still running great but a bit rusty. They rust in the rear wheel arches, rear jacking points and rear subframe first, also brake lines corrode but that’s standard car stuff. Ideally all plastic covers under the car should be removed, the metal cleaned up and sprayed with dinitrol or similar. Bushes, there is a lot of them but the originals last long after they are dried and cracked, only replace with OEM or they don’t last. Front ball joints cause rattles but easy to replace, again use quality ones, I mostly use Lemforder for bushes and ball joints. Always get an alignment after too.
Watched a few of your videos,nice job I subscribed 😊🇨🇦
Welcome aboard!
Proper enjoyable vid 👌
Down to earth genuine
Appreciate that mate
This channel is an absolute gem!
This is a fantastic video! Loved it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I had the 2002 hse nice cars I have a 2019 vogue 3.0td now can’t wait to see what you do with it maybe buy a rear end damage for parts should be very cheap in colour good luck
You deserve this step up man! Greats Vids!
Appreciate that 🙌
can't wait to see how this goes!
Hi Nino, I have no intention, time or skills to repair cars, stumbled upon your channel, and loved it. Very watchable, subscribed.
Appreciate that 👍🏻
I looove!! that Range Rover SVR. It sounds absolutely amazing.
Do not forget the plus VAT on the newer ones .
Working my way through the Mini videos , so bit surprised to see you at a different location on receipt of the RR . Have you moved house ?
go go go go man looking forward to see that mint!
Hey mate really enjou your videos. I'm aslo from colchester. I'm currently rebuilng an audi a4 2009. Keep up with the good work
Hi ! I recently subscribed to your channel and I'm really enjoying your videos. I saw you at the NEC Classic with your good lady. I wanted to say hello but I didn't cos I didn't want to come over as a complete nerd . Look forward to future videos. Thanks
Ahh you should have said hello! I don't bite lol
Good luck it be a big job but look amazing at the end
Enjoyed vid well done👍👍👍
The heart wants what it wants. Having had lots of Discos and Defenders I have found that if you approach maintenance of an LR product proactively they are perfectly usable every day.
Get an RR L322 for relative peanuts money and invest in a few bits and you'll have a lovely car.
Just a quick comment on buying blind: I live in France but used to buy my car in UK because overall they (Jaguars/LRs and RRs) were cheaper buy. I never saw them before committing to buy and I always drove them home to Central France. I would ask lots of questions and saw plenty of pictures of the vehicles and studied the paperwork to verify that they would work for me, and they did !!
If I felt they required it they would an engine oil and filter, a new air filter and anything else that was obviously required.
Looking forward to this one ! Good luck hope works out 👍
Thanks 👍
Looking forward to seeing this 😊
Cheap car, love to see what one of those car buying sites would offer. Bet you'd still make a good profit. 👍
Look forward to the progress on this. I feel like you’ve overpaid for the base car, buts it’s the process of fixing up that’s the interesting bit. You were almost certainly bidding against breakers.
Nice looks like a good build.
A great story, keep them coming please.
Will do!
Can’t remember whether I bought you a drink when you first announced you would be going for a Range Rover, but after seeing it I decided you need one regardless! Thank you!
Haha yeah everyone keeps telling me I'm going to have my work cut out for me owning a Range Rover haha. Thanks for the drink mate 👍
I finally saw one of the new body style Raingies…..it was beautiful. Don’t get me wrong i had 2 classics one after the other and loved them but as per usual, the first new one i saw was on the back of a roll back car hauler being towed to a service center. ….. i’ll stick to my MUCH MORE RELIABLE AUDI Q’s for now thanks!
Finally you’re back, I was starting to worry 😂😂
Bruh.. Did they just try to jumpstart the M3 directly on the battery? You're supposed to jump using the terminals in the engine bay
Best of luck; I have a 2004 L322 (petrol) which I bought last year as a hobby/project and because I'd always wondered what it was like to own one (!). I had a couple of months trouble-free but the gremlins crept in. Once you've sorted the bodywork issues, be prepared for daft electrical issues. Most of these in my experience - boil down to the ridiculous complexity of the systems; everything seems to be related to everything else. Example: my hill descent/abs/air suspension faults (otherwise known as the three amigos) were all resolved by changing out the brake light fuse...discovered after several months of fiddling, during which many other items were replaced. Expect the unexpected, and best of luck!
The brake light fuse? Oh wow haha. I've already found an electrical issue with this one... wish me luck!
Let's just say that they seem to have character.... @@NotEconomicallyViable
As a RR owner and lover, I've had them for years and at the moment have 2 l405 and a P38 . So the one before and after yours . They hook you and you'll always want one . Yours as a runner looking level should be a great and easy enough fix . Perfect time with winter coming
What's the P38 like? I've got a mate who had one and he said he probably got a month's worth of driving out of it in a year haha. Spent most of it's time in the workshop!
Hi ,if you look at lots you'll see suspension has been converted to springs mainly because they can be expensive to sort . Keep it on bags. Lots of stuff is just niggles and easy enough for you to sort . It's got a BMW engine in the diesel which I have , not fast but cruises well and they are all so very comfy to be in . @@NotEconomicallyViable
Best time of the day with a new video 😊
🙌🙌
Quite the project! I really liked that Jag Super, 60 in under 5 seconds, it`d give the BM a run for its money for a tiny fraction of the price! Do you know what it went for?
New to your channel......I'm invested.
Loving the videos, Range Rover could be ruinous but great content 😂 good luck, keep it up 👍
Haha cheers mate
Quite interesting you have a new sub, cheers
Great content as always matey, was wondering if you’d be up to the challenge of purchasing my Volvo s80 t6 and restoring it
Looking forward to this one Nino!
You've chosen the best model Range Rover to fix up - very diy friendly, loads of parts choice. And it's also regarded as the best RR ever made by many people (I own one, and it is an extremely good car)
Don't say that, the best part of these things is seeing the content creator in a prolonged state of depression. Say: 'Nino I own one, should you give up, can I buy some spares ?' maximum emotional damage
@@gertvanderhorst2890 😅
Loving this, golden age of LR in my view... Excited for an update on the RS6 tho 👌🏻
RS6 update coming soon!
@@NotEconomicallyViable keep up the great work Nino, to driveway tinkering 🤙🏻
Oh I feel a bit bad knowing how bad an old RR can be without the crash damage. This was £500-£700 car if that. I’m sure Copart know what your highest bid is if you enter it before hand and that’s why it went straight there. Not exactly hiding it well are they. BCA use the same trick. Anyway good luck with that pal
Your having a coffee and i see a Mk 3 Zodiac behind you a great car.
Good luck with that one. This will be interesting 👍🏼
Thanks 👍
The internal damage to the range rover isn't stripping...the bad boys are taking panels off to find the tracker...
XC90 top of the range. Job done ✔️.
You also will not waste time constantly at the dealer 😉 😂👍🏼
Good luck mate
Always important to option the 'Christmas lights' dash package where many and various warning lamps endlessly entertain and amuse you on those few occasions when the car actually starts and will ensure a long and rewarding (although costly) relationship with a local specialist.
Hahaha maybe I shouldn't drive this car until January when the Christmas lights go back away
Good luck pal - I’m all eyes 👀👀👀😂👍
TH-cam just suggested your channel to me so you got a sub. Also a car buying numpty who buys sheds thinking I can fix them :D
Essex lad wants a Range Rover just avoid parking around Rettendon😂 great channel
Just needs a new set of reg plates and a good valet, by the first looks at it
I have the same dream, hopefully one day I will get one. I like discovery 4.
Nice little Rangie that and a bit of a steal for £1500. Should be good with new bonnet, wing and windscreen - even better if you can find them from a breaker in the same colour.
Yeah that's the plan. Not a particularly rare colour, so shouldn't be too difficult 👍
Bit more volume would be nice on what is otherwise another fab video!!
Drive it out of the showroom and you get 10% instant depreciation. Utterly silly to buy new.
Looking forward to this one. 👍👍
You are a very courageous man. ❤
Or stupid? haha
@@NotEconomicallyViable no :) 'motivated'.
Haha 👍
Take a look at the Aston Barclay cr auctions for a range rover you will get one
Love Range Rovers come on you can do it be watching this one for sure good luck. You will love it when its done.
Thanks mate
Not sure if it's still the same but when a car took a big shunt like that the ecu would shut all major electrics down especially fuel supply etc in case of fire in an accident.
