I water skied underneath it back before I traded my 6 pack for a barrel, started the ski at the Old Severn Ferry slipway under the 1st Severn bridge. Finished in Bristol docks, knackered.
You'll know the project car when you see it, one day out of the corner of your eye! your vlogs are so relaxing just sit back with a mug of tea and be driven round the country, thanks Kev!
Hi KevTee, I've loaded bales of cars and if I remember correctly engines out of charle trents, only a small axle weight bridge, with an artic I got to, let's say Blackbush(YATLEY) 3 tons over. I've tipping round the corner at I think it was called PDC, reload at Reliance Metals (that's gone)or Mr Trents, have also dragged around a Walking floor a little. Been pulled in on A31? by the wheeltappers, thanks for all those memmerys.
@@stevewallis1087 YES that's correct steve, I hauled out of the crap yard as the sign said outside when Dave and Mike, they where two ex fishermen took over Reliance. The old boss of Reliance, gentleman he was, Died.
Enjoyed the Vlog. I know you said that there was nothing special, but I enjoyed it. Nice to see there is still some life going on while this lockdown continues. Keep them coming and also look forward to seeing more on the Volvo build, when you have time, of course.
Hi. Thanks for all your videos. I was just wondering about the Battery jump charger you showed during one of your recent vehicle pickups. It looked a pretty beefy model and I wondered what make it was?
It's a snapon boost pack, very good but not cheap 👍 www.ebay.co.uk/i/173528435105?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=710-134428-41853-0&mkcid=2&itemid=173528435105&targetid=882152737572&device=m&mktype=pla&googleloc=9045684&poi=&campaignid=9461446054&mkgroupid=92796519061&rlsatarget=pla-882152737572&abcId=1139576&merchantid=110614773&gclid=CjwKCAjw7-P1BRA2EiwAXoPWA7fGw_kEyk1ZGA-_zjKxrIvajuSWet-x4fphKb5ffprrkTbYb6iIfBoCW10QAvD_BwE
That Halfords is where I got my car serviced last. Wanted to charge me £75 to replace the front wiper blades, nearly had a heart attack when I read that on the spec sheet!
i love your videos as ive always wanted to travel in a lorry but wont ever get the chance too. do by watching you its as good as , and i love cars although ive never learned to drive so its brilliant to see the different cars you get to pick up,.
Glad to see you still love ur job Kev. Along with the Lake District Somerset has got to be my second favourite county in England it’s beautiful as you know. I remember Shepton Mallet pretty well & I’ve been to Bristol but only to Temple Meads railway station when getting the Crosscountry train to & from Markinch which is near Glenrothes & Falkland. I do remember Wells which I think you were at recently. Lovely city is Wells from what I remember same with Glastonbury which is also a Braw town.
Back to the yard 15:30 giving you enough time before knocking off, to wash that filthy windscreen KevTee, as we viewers prefer to see what is happening around us - so chop chop get it done!!
Get yourself a Smart Roadster, rare but quite an online community to help ensure they stay on the road. Some of the rarer versions are seeing their values actually increase.
Wow Kev,another great vlog mate.Noticed since lockdown how good the weather has been!!! lol.Bristol looked quite Kev,all the cars being at home doesn't really help does it mate.Really enjoying the ride along mate,over 6+ weeks in lockdown is getting to me a bit, but hey ho,as you would probably say mate,Onwards & Upwards!!! Stay safe & keep on truckin'.
As a response to if we'd enjoy seeing that, I for one have wished you'd get like a body mount or hat mount for a gopro, so we can see everything about it, wasn't as much of an issue when you were just towing freight, but now your drag for a wreckers, would love to see the whole process ya know :) glad to see you back at work and staying healthy!!
@@KevTee No worries, I just remember back when I first started watching I was always hoping to see some out of truck action. Loving the way you're already doing it, hope you find a body cam you like and doesn't intrude to much with general work :)
Hi Kev, just curious, but why do you go all the way to Bristol, are no nearer breakers/dismantlers in that area? I believe Halfords have stayed open because they sell bicycles(recreational). Nice vid, stay safe mate.
Nice video as always. I did my class C training and test in Bristol and then went back to do my C+E there with Scania. Unfortunately failed my c+e due to touching a tree branch (no damage) with the trailer while pulling up at the kerb for hill start 😣 I found out afterwards that apparently it is one of the local testers favourite tricks to catch out people... (at least that's my excuse...)! I don't need a trailer for what I do here in Spain at the moment, but one day will go back and try again just to prove to myself I can do it 😂 👍
Once again great kev my son loves seeing cars going on trailer I had blue saxo vtr in 1998 great little car I ended up round tree with car don't think it was good idea to do at time was write off and I enjoyed your chat with Luke C yesterday big thumbs up for channel 🤗
Bristol without the traffic is quite a nice place, but the roads are laid out so you have to go three times round the block just to go straight on - and the "good burgers" of the city moan about the traffic....
My local Halfords was open last Saturday (2nd). If I'd joined the queue, I may have been home by now, not sure. At least I'd have my headlight bulbs, rather than still be waiting.
ha ha you almost went past my front door lol you must of gone off at Lawrence Hill roundabout (I live about 5mins away from the roundabout) and went up through Redfield and St George before arriving in Kingswood yes you're right about the traffic but still quite a lot on the roads of Bristol too
Hello from Southampton Hi Kev hope you ad a good holiday and do you like bristol and hope you are staying safe and well and another brilliant video as always
Hi Kev , You get to see some really great scenery , Clifton suspension Bridge , I know you said about the Volkswagen been a Catastropic Failure , What exactly is that ? And what happens to it , you said it was not a scrapper ? it looked quite a nice Car . Great video . Bristol did look dead . Sheffield where i live has got really busy over the last week . Stay safe bud
Another great vid Kev, I was working near the Clifton suspension bridge last year, seems light years away now. Love the music in all your vids, is there a play list available 😄
Loved the vlog again, I'm a car nut so loving seeing the old cars but at the same time sad to see some getting scrapped. One question for you Kev is, when your not doing your Vlog and working without the camera rolling do you find your self talking away to your self as if talking to a camera? I'm sure I would if it was me. Sorry if the question has been asked before but I'm new to your Vlogs,thanks.
What’s the story with the cars? Why are they being collected from just the side of the road?.. also my dad gave me his saxo VTS last year for my first car but it was so rusty underneath :( I sold it and got a mk6 fiesta ST instead
Nice choice of car, mk 6 ST is a fantastic little pocket rocket 👍 and don't worry, no cars are stolen from the side of the road 😂 There cars that have either been purchased by the company I work for or being collected on behalf of insurance firms.
No classic car restoration is ever a profitable exercises the same truth applies to it as owning race horses which is "how do you make a small fortune from horses" answer start of with a big one.
Protons !!!!!! I worked on two projects in KL Malaysia so had Protons as company cars, I can't remember what they models were other than having 4 doors and six wheels. The later one had a strange gearbox that did not like hills and as I had one to climb to my office the 3 back seat passengers had to get out.
Hi Kev, be careful drink around the streets of Bristol you may get yourself on TH-cam doing the wrong thing by Dash Cam Bristol, 😜cheers Garry from downunder
Collectors items now. I work with a guy who have a sierra Cosworth D plate 3 door RS 500 totally original. He has people contacting him constantly begging him to sell it, but the thing is a classic beauty so obviously he won’t let it go. But any old fords now including the ones you have are classics in their own right!
I love old fords and hope to collect more of them when i have the money , right now my 72k kilometers driven one owner before me escort and my 59k kilometers 2 owner Sierra are great , never selling the escort tho , its my first ever car🤣
Driving around Falkland a few day’s ago was pretty depressing seeing the village so empty as it’s usually packed with tourists more so since Outlander was filmed in Falkland & parts of Fife & Scotland 🏴. Sooner Corona Virus F**** OFF the better. I hope you ur partner & kids have been ok during all this mate ? Stay safe pal .
Tell me about it. I did a delivery in Broadway in the Cotwolds on Friday. Usually this time of year it’s packed with tourists and the place was empty just like where you was. And spot on the sooner we’re back to normal the better!
11:53 that is the Clifton Suspension Bridge one of IB Brunel's many masterpieces

Always good to see a Zafira get carted off to the knackers yard!
At 22:00 you can really see how much bigger cars have gotten that polo is nearly the size of the Zafira and much bigger than the clio
You are quite right, it's even funnier when you see the same models next to eachother, such as an old Clio next to a new one.
enjoy playing 'spot the familiar roads' as i normally travel round the country. never seen Bristol so quiet, much easier though
Cracking vid Kev, music and voice volumes now waaaaaay better mate 👍👍👍 cheeeerrrrs 😜👍

Nice vlog Kev keep up the good work mate
Great vlog kev great content
I miss the open road. As a working musician there is not much working going on at the moment. Thanks as always for the weekly content 👍🏼
The irony is the open road is now empty. And it’s great for us in the HGV industry as we can actually do deliveries on time.

Almost a 3rd of the cost 👌
Good1 kev,

Stay safe

One day I’ll spot myself in my van coming the opposite way!
The centre dash on that truck looks really really sad...

Where you collected that zafira from is about a 5 minute walk from where i live.
Retro Japanese is the way go at the moment. What is that strange tower as you turn into the yard.
Water tower and I agree about retro jdm, had some tidy old Honda's come up lately 👌
Great video, that remote control winch is neat.
I think the windscreen needs a bit of a clean there Kev lol 😂
Time of year it’s a bloody nightmare with the insects. I’m cleaning my windscreen every bloody day🤣😩
Don’t forget Kev if you pick up an old Porche 911, give me nod cheers mate! Lol
What tablet & app do you use aswell as your sat nav , cheers 👍👍
kev i see u got a crsk on the windscreen by your tomton gary from crewe
Do you ever drive the Scania trucks and how is it driving/reversing with a car on the spek
I have driven and operated the Scania and will be again in the near future 👍
Good work at the beginning Kev, you refueled faster than a F1 pit stop.🐱🐱 Only joking, love the vids once again.
hi kev.whats the newest car youve had to pick up?
No classic car restoration is ever a profitable exercises the same truth applies to it as owning race horses which is "how do you make a small fortune from horses" answer start of with a big one.
Why dont they fit back up cameras to these trucks?
I’d quite like to see atleast a little of each collection, I find it interesting to watch how you put the cars on the trailer
Why do you use 2 satnavs?
More the merrier 😂
U saw a big rekka recovery truck would you consider doing that job in the future?
Been there done that 😂
Great video kev
Looking for a polo was it a fruit or a mint ?
john lomax was spearmint I prefare the green ones myself
Really enjoying these vlogs kev a lot variety in them -if want a retro project something 80s- early 90s Japanese be ideal or maybe mk2golf
Thanks for the tripp.
