@@drivewaylife he’s right mate - what an inspiration you are to your family and anyone watching. Your children seeing you graft is a great lesson to them and they should (and no doubt) will be incredibly proud of you. Your babbie is a little cracker (and your older daughter) as well btw congratulations
You need to put a lean-to up so you can work in all weathers. Shouldn’t cost to much and you could put curtains around to protect you from the wind and cold. Also add lights so you can work when dark as well 👍
@@drivewaylife a Shock james youve had A3 8P problems there usually good cars i have a old A3 8P tdi its passed 4 MOTS in a row no advisorys 15yrs old pal.bet its put you off buying A3s but theres still profit in it,all the best top man.😁
You asked about polishers.... I can recommend the in2detailing forced rotation polisher. Won't stall, but does slightly pull your arms away from you. Not a problem once you've learned it on the rear left hand side door. Very good cut, depending on your pads.
Plz plz do a video on clearing driveway plants etc love to see that and the space gained and kerb appeal for customers would be spot on nice bright coloured gravel
I would be careful about putting price boards in the cars, you are allowed to run a business from home but I expect you would need change of use/ planning permission to turn it into a forecourt the council will be knocking your door that's for sure,
Fair play thats a good finish from rattle cans, i probably wouldn't have gone black, i think you are limiting your market to sell. I would have gone a darker sliver colour. Looks good rho mate.
@drivewaylife interested to see how quick it sells, you are doing a good job mate it looks good. Can you do a episode on the financial side, how much you have spent and sold so far?
MPD (Motor Parts Direct) are looking for Social Media partners, maybe worth contacting them and doing a deal with them, they can supply your consumables/paint etc
Hi When you go to see the car do you take someone with you, when you purchase the car I assume the other person drives you car back and you drive the new car
Just found you and watched all the episodes 👍 Just wondering where do you go to sell your cars for a profit and how do you get your trade/retail values for cars? Cheers
I buy minis and repair them non runners and alsorts i do all the work myself detail them then sell on its nothing special but i enjoy it and works along side my main job
@drivewaylife same here lock myself away in garage doing the maintenance and repairs then they get out on drive for detail and selling I also have a place where I photograph too and all the mums park for school I also don't like filming videos of minis and taking photos while people are about as it spoils the pictures 🤣🤣
I send them a picture of the car they can afford. The a3 is for sale at 2695 they all offer 2k or offers i tell them full price and send them screen shots of the 130k mile £2k a3
Am waiting for the better weather before I start flipping cars 10 years old cars I will buy none running I have professional garage for the repair work I pick cars that have few problems to sort out
@@drivewaylife thanks I just looked it up was a bit concerned hot engine with tyre shine but I see you can use it on just about anything cheers for the info here’s to next week 👍👍👍
not a fan of the black wheels you should have done them in clear i understand why you did not easy to achieve the brushed ali on such a large part of the wheel, its just that design
@@drivewaylife I’m not a fan of black wheels (only personal preference) but that is a nice job you’ve done on the Kia wheels 👍 and another amazing job overall
Just a personal criticism. I don't like TH-camrs that bang on about likes, subs, and comments within the first 5 minutes of an upload. Let me watch the upload. Then I'll decide whether i want to leave a comment or like the upload. I'm not knocking you. I just personally prefer if youtubers asked at the end of the tiles upload!!
I get that and bigger youtubes can get away with that approach, Unfortunately If I don't ask I don't get and majority of people don't watch to the end, I know it's begging but it's only through people subscribing I can grow the channel to make it worth spending 15+ hours a week filming and editing, That said I do agree 👍
@drivewaylife maybe word it differently at the start of the upload then. Something like "if you watch until the end of the video and you like what you see, please consider a like, comment, and subscribe" It encourages people to watch until the end and it doesn't feel like begging
Leave it out...start a channel and do it your way...nothing wrong with him trying to up the subs and comments don't like it go elsewhere instead of moaning to him he does a great job you obviously don't know how TH-cam works...anyway he got you in the comments so he's winning.
I like to see a young family man entrepreneur, doing the best he can for his family. Keep up the good work good things will come
I really appreciate your comment

This was a really nice message to read on a cold Wednesday morning on the school run,
You need to put a lean-to up so you can work in all weathers. Shouldn’t cost to much and you could put curtains around to protect you from the wind and cold. Also add lights so you can work when dark as well 👍
I think that's my plan for the grave area 🤔
well done i hope you get S line A3 8P sorted bet you cant wait to sell it.all the best pal .😁
I'm hoping and praying this week it's done

Put a for sale sign on one of the cars busy road passing sales
Not a bad idea,
I would be careful about putting price boards in the cars, you are allowed to run a business from home but I expect you would need change of use/ planning permission to turn it into a forecourt the council will be knocking your door that's for sure,
Also not keen on the idea of people just walking around having a noisy

Hi
When you go to see the car do you take someone with you, when you purchase the car I assume the other person drives you car back and you drive the new car
Sometimes I risk it and take train/bus, but yes 99% of the time I take my other half
Just found you and watched all the episodes 👍
Just wondering where do you go to sell your cars for a profit and how do you get your trade/retail values for cars? Cheers
I start on free sitesfb etc.
Then Autotrader’s pay as you go,
I check what they are selling for on Autotrader and marketplace,
Thanks for the help👍
Another nice video thanks all the best mate!
Really appreciate your feedback 🙏

I buy minis and repair them non runners and alsorts i do all the work myself detail them then sell on its nothing special but i enjoy it and works along side my main job
I find it quite therapeutic just tinkering
@drivewaylife same here lock myself away in garage doing the maintenance and repairs then they get out on drive for detail and selling I also have a place where I photograph too and all the mums park for school I also don't like filming videos of minis and taking photos while people are about as it spoils the pictures 🤣🤣

Great videos, please get the Audi’s sold asap and get some new projects.
I hear that
not a fan of the black wheels you should have done them in clear i understand why you did not easy to achieve the brushed ali on such a large part of the wheel, its just that design
Everyone has their tastes. i prefer black wheels on every car i own, there is even a saying in the car trade,
If it won't sell, paint the wheels black
@@drivewaylife I’m not a fan of black wheels (only personal preference) but that is a nice job you’ve done on the Kia wheels 👍 and another amazing job overall
@@manfredarcher645 I appreciate your feedback 🙏
I would down the x6 it would be keeping me awake at night
