Mate I love this type of video concept when someone clean and restore a car. not only just to sell it but also to give a bit of a new beginnings to the new owner. Great job!
Awesome. I’ve got a video idea for the future, restore an old, old 110 defender and then kit out the back with a sleeping platform etc. then go and do a camping/off-road tour of somewhere in the UK to display the capabilities and beauty of the truck (even a road trip to Norway?). That would be epic and theoretically would appeal to a lot of viewers I think. I would certainly love watching it. Keep up the good work
I would like to do a Defender at some point, although possibly a 90 and make a high-end off roader of it....Although the market for old Defenders, even knackered ones, is crazy at the moment!
Thanks Alex! Yes this was the first car in the Chop To The Top series. I'm planning to re-cap each vehicle in the series with a 15 minute, no talking video just like this so that people can view each vehicle and see what was done in a quick, easy to view format!
It's coming! The Hilux is still for sale right now so as soon as that one goes i will be moving onto the next vehicle and a new episode of Chop To The Top will be released!
is there anything to watch out for in the engine bay? planning on cleaning mine and aside from your video, can't find any with a similar generation rav4
To be honest it’s much the same as any other engine bay; always protect any electrical components, try not to get any dressings etc on drive belts and the like etc. where possible it’s best to clean things without masses of flowing water. Just go at it as carefully as you can!
Is it not dangerous to buy such car? I mean it´s nice that someone details it from outside and inside what the eye can see, the car now looks like it had the best owner before that cared for it but the oposite is the truth, it was neglected for who knows how many years. If someone doesn´t care how it looks he probably also neglected maintenance, could there be hidden problems with for example dirty fuel lines, dirty brake lines, corrosion in the cooling loop of the engine and similar?
True but that is why you should always ask if the car has a maintenance logbook when buying a second hand car. Ofcourse that doesnt completely solves the issue but still..
This car was particularly neglected in terms of how filthy it was allowed to get but it did come with service history which details all of the mechanical work that has been done over its lifetime, but regardless, as part of the process of preparing a car for sale i generally send them out to have a full service and cam belt (where required) before advertising them. That's about as much as you can do to make sure the car is good to go for a few more years!
It's a very underrated car so very comfortable and bulletproof. Had one a few years back. Great job mate.
Thanks! Yes, the Rav is a bit under-rated. In my experience they are very capable, reliable things!

Thanks Tedjo! I'm glad you enjoyed it, Lots more to come!

It was a truly amazing job Johnny! 👏🏻🤩👍🏻
Thank you very much!
2nd gen can never look dated. Need to do this to my 98.
I agree - an awesome design. I especially like the low loading boot floor and modular rear seats of this generation of Rav!
Brilliant result Johnny, well done mate.
Thanks Ken!
So satisfying to watch. Great job, and clearly know what you're doing. Is this part of chop to the top?!

Thanks again for great video. Failed MOT today with my w124 but this video surely boosted my mood back up👍
Sorry to hear about the failure but glad that this video cheered you up!
Could I kindly ask for a full list of products and tools used in this. Great video
When you doing your chop to the top 👍👍👍👍

@@JohnnyGetsCash thanks! i'll look at an engine bay diagram to see where the sensitive electrical equipment are located
Your gsd stole the show for me 😂
He is an absolute diamond isn’t he 😂😍
@@JohnnyGetsCash definitely is
Wow!!
What is the size of the wheel center cap? Is it 63mm?
Great
