That was a brilliant half hour video and honestly Rob I don’t think there was one time in the whole video when you were not smiling! It’s a lovely way to work. Chris did his stuff on the dent and Adain is just a magician with the keys and computer bits. What a result 😊
Random comment I am a fisherman and watch loads of rubbish about fishing I haven’t got a clue about cars but… I absolutely love your channel the skill and work ethic is definitely a lesson for our youngsters Keep up the good work guys ❤
ignore the haters,you guys are bringing normal cars and selling them (cheap) to the everyday person,most of the trolls are sat in their bedroom waiting for the next tavarish or mat armstong video to come out,your content is for the evereryday person which is why i love it
Leaving a bit in it for the next man, or in this instance a suitcase full 😅. What a bargain. You guys certainly aren't greedy when it comes to pricing.
Iden is a total legend!! What a top fella. If I ever need anything to do with keys for any of my motors I am going to him. He is so down to earth! Think he needs his own channel now!!!! Great purchase boys. Great video. Well done lads!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My 2016 Ford Focus has them door edge protectors on. They are a genius bit of kit! Also I have the paddle shift steering wheel. The car didn't come with it, I read up and found out that a Ford Kuga steering wheel with paddle shifts would work on my car, straight out he box so to speak, without any wiring changes, its already built into the wiring harness from factory!
Those door edge protectors were an optional extra & probably the only one I didn’t get for my Titanium X, I never scuffed my door but kind of wish I’d got them. It looks like Titanium X with a few of the options. I don’t see the radar on the front so don’t know if it is fully optioned out. Panoramic was an optional extra, those 17” alloys were optional but became standard for the X in 2020. Other options were parking assist, blind spot assist, cross traffic assist, CD player which went in the manual shelf of the glove box & heated seats/steering wheel. Pre 2020 you couldn’t get a spare wheel because the B&O sub was in the spare bay, but post 2020 they moved the sub to the side wall of the boot on the right so you lost the little cubby hole but gained the option of a spare limp wheel. Hopefully the eco boost is one that was switched to a timing chain rather than the timing belt as wet belt failures are becoming problematic especially on automatics. Even ones with timing chains aren’t fully out of the woods as the oil pump is still wet belt driven & may tear up and fail causing engine damage. It’s a shame the owner didn’t treat the car better, it deserves a better owner.
In 2019 Ford produced Focus and Fiesta models with a revised EcoBoost engine that uses a timing chain rather than a belt, so it is possible that the example you are looking at is fitted with a chain but you would need to confirm this either by checking yourself or asking the dealer to confirm this for you.
I love it that you guys are not greedy and pass your good fortune onto others, but I have to say, I would not touch any eco-Boom engine in a Ford myself
B&O Play model. Titanium and Zetec variants. This is the former with upgraded alloys and the panoramic roof. Colours were Bohai Bay Mint and Chrome Copper.
Yep ford door edge protectors have been around a long time. Optional extra. That's a vignale model, where you spec your own vehicle. Top of the range. We buy any car would pay £9685 for it!!
One of the reasons I enjoy your channel is because you show cost and expected return. You did the work as demonstrated and so you have earned a return.!
Fantastic lads, l come home after a hard day, 1st thing l look for is new content from you guys, you should be on TV and brighten all our lives up. Please keep up fascinating work , beats all of the garbage we pay for,😮😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I think that MOT centres should have to add a photo of the speedo at each test to show what the mileage showed at the test. This would help for those times when the tester puts the wrong mileage into the system due to "fat fingers" and you have to question it later.
I have a similar problem that the MOT tester reversed two numbers a few years ago. I've had the car since new, but the mileage check now shows the discrepancy.
But that wouldn’t work because the photos of the fiesta they have would then on pictures show 22,000 and odd because it was set on the wrong setting as one point but mistake as he said in the video showing kilometers not mileage by mistake so if was on a photo it would show the 22,000 and odd making it still look like that’s what it truly was and would look like it was right at the time of them Doing it
@@Thisistrulyoddtv_Mark This simply isn't true. Legally, all speedo odometer figures must show what units of measurement they are displaying. On this model you can see at 18:23 that the odometer reading ends "mls" where, if it was showing in kilometres it would have a km suffix.
Hi Rob and Chris… what a touch.. lovely little car and easy to turn around and confidently send it out the door with a sensible profit. Will be a brilliant buy for someone..👍👍 Alex.
Hello Rob & Chris, so enjoyed this video, and finding / keeping the car locksmith for all your needs is great, and what a nice chap too!! I have not seen a car with so much top quality extra's as this before - special model! Best wishes from Lincolnshire
This is the 2nd video from Rob and Chris where they pose the question " why was it seized" and twice that they havent answered their own question. Some TH-camrs get serious flack for using clickbait titles. I feel for the people who probably suffered a significant financial loss for reasons unknown.
That steering lock issue ( not releasing ) is a very common issue on 2017 to 2018 age range fiesta’s ….. seems to only happen when battery goes dead flat …… will normally resolve itself once battery has been fully recharged / replaced with possibly another battery reset once it’s recharged & clearing a few associated fault codes ……. I’m in the breakdown industry ( yellow lot ) and I see this issue fairly often ….. nice little car apart from the love it or hate it colour & bloody awful wet belt engine ….. whoever designed & signed those engines off as fit for purpose needs several hard slaps 😂😂
Hi Rob & Chris 👋🏻 Another great video 👍🏻 I’d just like to say, your car key guy (I’ll try to pronounce it right!?) Aiden 🤷♂️ is one seriously clever guy right!? Rob, you know your stuff & Chris is just a master at his art but watching Aiden crack that cars brain was epic! Absolutely brilliant, keep the videos coming guys 👍🏻👍🏻
Great job lads,i know a profit is a profit,but your giving it away,,9500 or 10k is still cheap,build up the war chest and treat yourselfs to a car you's want not what the public want,
Loved the video, new subscriber. and agree there is plenty of people that care more about solid mechanics than paintwork and are happy with the paintwork / wheels being "not quite perfect". Will make a great bargain for someone. looking forward to more vids like this.
B&O are long establisher manufacturers of high end home sound systems, think a few car makers use them but didn't think this included Ford. That's a cracking car for someone big demand for small Auto's particularly with quite a high spec. At that price I should think your inbox will be overflowing!
Door edge protector that comes out too lads. Great turnaround again. With the withheld number thing, some phones now auto direct to answer machine to prevent spam calls etc so might be worthwhile getting a number that you only use to call for these sales calls only so that people can receive those calls seeing that they might have emailed you first. Something to think about
No issues with theses engines thousands produced & sold across the ford range. If you dont service it you'll have problems simples. Im a Ford employee and can tell you all that ford will honour a replacement engine even for those that haven't been serviced on spec.
Top spec car that. Lots of the smaller cars are getting the luxury options these days as that`s what the people want, a small cheap to run car with all the bells & whistles. Aiden is definitely a wizard and not from this world 🤣
If that car had the 1.2 engine I'd be begging you guys to take my money but that's got the 1.0 ecoBoom engine with the wet belt in it and to be honest I'd rather ride a pushbike than buy something with that terrible ecoBoom engine. It's a shame because the rest of the car is perfect and has got every factory option!!!
I hired a Fiesta fitted with the B&O sound system and found myself having to turn the bass down - really was quite something. Did you gentlemen come across this story in the Guardian - "Council forgets to tell driver it towed car away - then demands year’s storage fees."
Ive had that mileage issue with a Citroen once at MOT. Every time the battery was disconnected,the car would revert to kilometres. It had been in the garage for some repair work and mot and they had disconnected the battery for the work then did the MOT. So my mileage appeared to have shot up by thousands!
Rob, I bought a brand new Ford from a local dealer a few years ago. After two days I realised that the dealer had made the number plates up wrong !, two letters on the plate transposed !. I really wouldn’t put anything past the dealers…🙄.
Yeah unfortunately have two wet belts one for cambelt one for Oli pump Best one for 3 cylinders little runners it’s 1.0 tce Renault-Dacia because have chains instead belts
Hi Rob and Chris that Fiesta has self parking mode I think. Great feature you should try it and do a small video on it you will be amazed how well it does it. I have a similar specked Fiesta as a driving school car and I show this feature to my pupils and they are shocked. Keep up the good work lads brilliant videos 👍
And if it does have self parking (does it?), it might crash through the workshop and set Chris's office on fire. Worth a go though! Do it Rob. I'll buy a couple of coffees.
That version of B&O isn’t even as powerful as the ones they use in Audis surprised you haven’t heard them before. Best sound systems are the Bermester, and bowers and Wilkins they sound absolutely amazing
Been watching and loving your content for a year plus guys but you 100% need to up your prices your skills sets and a willingness to take a gamble on a car with you hard earned cash you both deserve a better profit and at the same time your still be cheaper then anyone else with the same vehicle.
no don't up the prices, they are still making good coin, it is entertaining for us to guess what they are asking and as they say they move them on quickly and leave something in it for the next bloke. Everyone's a winner!
The dent master at work! Lovely spec'd car and with a decent clean it came up trumps. Complete mystery why someone wouldn't collect that???? It'll sell so quickly. 👍👍👍
thankyou gentlemen,,just out of curiosity,how much was that snapped plastic auto door protector.?? didnt hear it mentioned in the crunch the numbers bit,,
Complete guess really, but with it being an automatic and set to kilometres, I would assume might have been owned by a foreign uni student, with enough cash to just... not care about the money. Perhaps just leaving the car to rot is easier for them than trying to sell it if they're no longer living here. Abandoned cars do sound concerning, but this looks like an excellent buy, to me doubt there's anything untoward going on here.
Rob you can get a second phone with a separate sim card and you can leave the phone number showing with divert switched on to a voicemail referring people to your sales email address. Just means you can ring people without your private number switched on so you get more answers and if people ring back it goes straight to voicemail not wasting your time or distracting you.
It is probably best not to speculate but why anyone would abandon such a nice cat I don't know. Well it is your gain and ultimately one of us subscribers will gain. Bang & Olson are as you say are top notch in audio equipment so you can play your tunes in very clear tones. Well done to Aden once again for his brilliant work even though it took him a bit longer than usual. I think it was probably due to the battery being 'toast' as he said that was the cause of the steering lock problem. Chris did his magic once again with the dent so well done to him and well done to you Rob for chasing the millage issue and all the other bits of running around. I think that is a great price for whoever buys this car and as you say you can just jump in and drive it as it is. Great video once again Gents. 👍👍
I once took a Land Rover defender to an MOT (it passed) with 3 bags of fresh manure in the back. There was no comeback. I apologised for forgetting about the 'luggage'. The smell was not too bad but the flies must nave been a nuisance. Apparently that was not the worse they had had.
14:17 your reaction was funny when you discovered the pop out door guards 😂😂😂 ..they can get caught and fall off sometimes.. but probs one of the best things Ford fitted , that and the heated windscreen
I'm smiling as I was a Launch Manager at Ford on the Fiesta program just before I retired, so I'm partly responsible :) The wet belt is a problem, but properly serviced with correct oil spec helps, but not always, and Ford have announced assistance. And without being defensive, other manufacturers have numerous issues. I bought a VW camper recently and research shows numerous issues on later models, engine and gearbox failures below 100K. Just saying. ps. great vid as usual, keep up the good work.
Yes, but the wet belt is just a stupid design, isn't it. Should be a gear driven oil pump and a cam chain. Later engines have a cam chain but still the stupid wet belt.
Nice detective work on the mileage records make, if you send all the proof off to Car Vertical they will revise the records. I had that with my 2018 3008 GT 180 recently as it looked like the previous owner clocked the car between MOT's but after a few calls to the Peugeot garage a manager had access to the old records & they saw the job card numbers were entered under the mileage. Car Vertical sorted it for me & gave me a free check as goodwill. Love this Fiesta, and am VERY TEMPTED myself
It's a terrible thing Ford dropped the Fiesta, especially when you see so many Vauxhall Corsa cars on the road, there must still be a demand for the supermini. I have to agree with others, the colour is a very desired taste Rob.
I think it came down to EU laws with emission penalties, standard fit safety equipment and they make more profit on the Puma SUV based on the same car.
@@pb5x5Ford also said they couldn’t make the figures work anymore. I bought a Titanium was £17K back in 2018, so they must be a fair bit more now, and that’s a lot of money for a supermini size car, so I can kind of see their point. Manufacturing costs have gone exponentially up since the pandemic.
@@gavinreid2741 SUV's aren't for me. Just don't see the point unless you struggle to get in lower cars. Focus sized is big enough for me (not much smaller than a Sierra these days).
I have been trying out lots of new cars recently, i must say Ford are very good for comfort and gadgets these days. The folding steering wheel in the vans for your laptop/lunch is a total game changer for all day drivers.

love the fact you turned his phone over to hide his little one... was a small thing but nice touch

Great little car for someone. and a bargain too. Sound was a bit low on the video.
Wow 😮. What a bargain.
From experience I have found that the key programmed better if it is placed North/South on the transceiver... :) Shame about the body colour.
them door guards always eventually break, 2 out of the 4 on my old focus broke... never bothered replacing them before i got rid of it
What a lovely car . Well done lads.
Nice detective work on the mileage records make, if you send all the proof off to Car Vertical they will revise the records. I had that with my 2018 3008 GT 180 recently as it looked like the previous owner clocked the car between MOT's but after a few calls to the Peugeot garage a manager had access to the old records & they saw the job card numbers were entered under the mileage. Car Vertical sorted it for me & gave me a free check as goodwill. Love this Fiesta, and am VERY TEMPTED myself
Brilliant work as always guys.. 👍👍
I think the UK should abandon the metric system and just re-standardize on Imperial. Avoid mileage mis-reporting issues. 😊
13:15 Keys programmed.
14:45 Keys lost.
🤣
A-Dam took it😂😂😂
Brilliant guys another great video 👍👍
On the test drive of the fiesta . Your biceps are popping Rob, keep up the good work at the gym 💪
Awesome! great find and great result guys 😃😃
It's a terrible thing Ford dropped the Fiesta, especially when you see so many Vauxhall Corsa cars on the road, there must still be a demand for the supermini. I have to agree with others, the colour is a very desired taste Rob.
I think it came down to EU laws with emission penalties, standard fit safety equipment and they make more profit on the Puma SUV based on the same car.
@@pb5x5Ford also said they couldn’t make the figures work anymore. I bought a Titanium was £17K back in 2018, so they must be a fair bit more now, and that’s a lot of money for a supermini size car, so I can kind of see their point. Manufacturing costs have gone exponentially up since the pandemic.
@@pb5x5Puma is bigger , higher and wider. I think it is because people in the UK now prefer to buy big cars.
@@gavinreid2741 SUV's aren't for me. Just don't see the point unless you struggle to get in lower cars. Focus sized is big enough for me (not much smaller than a Sierra these days).
@@pb5x5 SUV not for me either. I test drove a Puma but didn't like it. Still in my Fiesta.
I have been trying out lots of new cars recently, i must say Ford are very good for comfort and gadgets these days. The folding steering wheel in the vans for your laptop/lunch is a total game changer for all day drivers.
Nice car but that 1.0 ecoboost engine with wet belt system is like a chocolate teapot and should be avoided....
Nice Range Rover in the back at 20:17
That’s Chris’s Discovery.
@@Dalbayob69 I think it’s a Range Rover sport though ( looks like an SVR one)
Wonder if someone who has no family has passed away why else would lose such a nice car.
I had the exact same thing had happened with the mileage on my old m3. Couldn’t sort it and was a real pain to sell.
