I'm a bit confused if I'm honest. In previous videos you have said you sell the cars on insta and that's where the GTI6 would be sold. I DM you a bid on Insta and now you say you don't read the DMS on insta, so how would I buy a car from you?!
The gti 6 was put on there and I said if your interested make me a offer and if it was excepted I would then message that person we get up to 1k messages on each video and I get hundreds on instagram commenting on the videos and I’m not going to get in to replying to them any comments about the videos need to be on the videos. At the end of this video I said I can’t respond to comments on Instagram I didn’t mention anything about private messages. I’m going to be completely honest once you except a private msg on instagram it’s then open for a 2 way chat any time and in the early days I opened and accepted a few messages and 2 of the people constantly messaged me one Evan kept sending me question marks asking why I’m not responding and his questions were what am I up to ?any video tonight ? Wanna go out for a beer ? Can I pop round at the weekend. Sorry bud I hope you understand where I’m coming from and why I need to be careful 👍

Some strange people out there
No need to justify as to why u don't feel the need to reply
@@sruk . Understand where you come from. Was just a bit confused as to how to buy. Just assumed you meant DM on there hence the confusion 👍
@@sruk lol bro!!!! 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 Keep going strong. Channel is quality.

Hear them every episode, but the tunes never get boring hahaha👍🏼
Rob...love the videos. It would be really good if you could put a "before" and "after" picture when you do the numbers. Sometimes it takes a while for you to finish the cars and I forget what they originally looked like without trawling through the old vids
Hi Rob,look at it now,the new paint matches perfect,very unusual to see a door panel to come off,what a great idea,another car done.👍
Rob & Chris, great content as usual. Also got to mention the music. That's a great tune. Vampire by emmit fenn,( thanks to shezam) 4
Wow the repair to this Golf is amazing, I do really like to see a quality repair, painting the inside of the door is just doing the job properly, touches like that make all the difference I think!.
Absolute bargain Rob, as always a great job done. Trying not to buy it myself, no need for it but what a bargain for the cash!
Petition for the RANGE ROVER CLASSIC build
😁👇🏻
In 2004 VW got big praise for the bolt on door skins as it lowered repair costs big time for customers and insurance companies,that’s a perfect colour match ,very good painter ,always had a soft spot for the GT Tdi’s as I’ve had a few ,great video 👍
Rust on the front wings is a common problem on the mk5 golfs. They’ve got a sound absorber in the wing made of sponge which collects water and never has a proper chance to dry out which rots the arch👍🏻
Give the painter a plug Rob, with results like that he will get plenty of work. Top work as usual.
He’s already flat out and if we plug him we won’t get our work done 👍
@@sruk Yeah I wouldn't be shooting myself in the foot either with workmanship of that standard.
Marvellous vid Rob, thanks. That's a nice, cheap, quality motor for someone. The new painter looks like a real find. All the best to you and Chris.
Got an original stereo for the same car sitting around if you want it? Looks like it would be going to a good cause 👍
Great job lads. that painter sure does know what he's doing, £150 wow, that was a £350 job all day he's a keeper Rob, make a nice car for someone, cheaper than catching the bus, and still worth a few bob when youv'e done with it, nice one.
Another quality repair Rob, you & Chris are in a league of your own. Well done.
I'm keen to see what cars Chris is hiding in the background its always nice to see a bit of fresh salvage
I've got a MK5 Golf Stock radio in the shed off my old golf. Message me if ya want it, can post it or something. I'm in West London
Hi Rob & Chris, what a great result this VW has turned out to be, and nice paint job.! Will be a great reliable cheap car. Cheers, Alex.
I've got a stock radio for that car if you want it ? Its out of my mk5 golf gt.
@@Human_Resource yes
Dont forget it needs a rear wiper Rob
It’s been blanked there’s no motor that is how it’s going 👍
Rob buddy why don’t you tell us who the guy you use for the paint work this new guy so any local people to you who are watching could possibly use the person as that paintwork looks pretty good 👍
He doesn't need the work he's always busy. Rob said on previous vid. Peace ✌️
He wouldn't want to direct 141k subscribers his way. Imagine the influx, and probably also some TH-cam weirdos ringing the guy up and wasting his time, asking about the channel etc. Look at the South Main Auto channel for an example of this!
Over 5000 views per hour very Impressive boy's..😄.. You'll both have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame soon ...🌟🌟..😄😄😄.
Yes the car has come up really well and are you going to do the rear wiper as well
Really glad I don’t have Instagram or the ability to buy your cars of you. Otherwise I would probably have bought ALL OF THEM! Love the channel and more power to you. Stay safe.
Rob and Chris the top guys that get involved lol 😂 Showing that golf door was brilliant cheers 👍🏻 Should of put a rear wash wipe on 🤔 Until the next see ya Stevie 😎
You will get a VW radio cheep from a breaker or on EBay rob. Don’t mess around with an after market radio, as the wiring can become a pain in the a$$. You will struggle to find a constant live ( which means buying a “connects 2” harness and control unit at £65)
Thanks for the info on the door handle as I’ve had issues with the caddy van sliding door. The are a bit fiddly.
👊🏻👍🏻
Nice job Rob and Chris , don't we in the trade love removing a new style different door handle from a vehicle without breaking it , it's a cracking idea about the door skin , would be a great idea for many manufacturers to do , but probably copyrighted by VW , keep the cars rolling cheers boys 👍
Top job Rob and Chris; a profit is a profit. Even better when they keep coming home.
Not sure why people put a thumbs down, it is what it is; you can’t mark the lads down for not polishing the can’t be seen screws.😳🤪
£150 for that paint work is a definite bargain, as you said he's probably looking after you on the price to make sure you send more work his way, so it's an investment in the future for him. He did a lovely job and went that bit further painting a lot of the inside of the door which makes sure no-one will know that door's been replaced unless they take it all apart. Once again, loving your work guys, that's a really tidy Golf for the age and the money, the next owner can spend a few quid on dealing with that rust and the odd chip and mark now, especially the creeping rust while it's still very minor, and have a car that looks pretty much like new for not much money at all. It goes to show, just because you're buying a cheap car you don't have to settle for junk, there are very good cheap cars out there if you do your due diligence...
Thought one: those arches have faired very well, have a look at an e46 of the same period... (mine will be treated and sorted for the third time now).
Thought two: no wet and dry.....yet Rob's smile looks better than ever... Coincidence? 🤔
Cracking turnaround chaps, well worth the asking price. Good luck with the sale. 👍🏻
The air bag light is a common fault with golfs/ jettas of that era my mums 2006 Jetta had the air bag light on for ages but we got someone to take it off
I wish I was looking for a car.... I would 100% buy that! It would easily do another 200,000 miles not a problem
Nice little tidy thing, should be plenty of interest at £1300. Not bothering with the rear wiper though, Rob?
No it doesn’t bother me it’s blanked it would just come out of my profit if I fitted a motor and arm and it doesn’t need to have it 👍
Shuts door, clunk, sounds like a Golf, I think I’ve been watching to many VW TV adverts.
That's a snip at £1295, and your 'new' painter has done a lovely job by the looks of it, and he's gone the extra mile to make it look very tidy - much like you two do.
Rob,thats a cheap Golf gt tdi at £1295 im in the trade and its worth that all day long! Anybody who wants a genuine run a around needs to be buying this car people!
Morning Rob, which video is it that you went through what the letters mean after the lot number on the white sticker please? Looking at on3 with a “P” for my nieces first car and don’t want to get a lemon 🙈👍 cheers and keep up the great content from you both 👍😊
fantastic work guys as allways looking farward to watching more keep up the great content you work hard to give us the viewers, great honest content well done rob and chris. chris love the viva in the great words of elvis... VIVA lets fix it
I love golfs! I have a mk6 GT TDI at the moment but mine has full leather and DSG (with paddle shifters added by me). Perfect every day driver. I think i have a stereo if you’re struggling.
I have a standard stero i would swap you for the door lock mechanism out the soare door
The mechanism is all bent up The door was damaged right by the latch 👍
@@sruk ok thank you for the reply
Good move on changing the glass as often there can be variations in the tint that you don't see until you fit the glass then stand back and look at the whole car, some cars have slight blue and green tints in the side glass.
That car does not look 16 years old! Let's crack on! new catchphrase Rob! Another smashing video and a great car for someone! Thanks guys👍
Well done guys. Great entertainment, super result and a nice profit too. What's not to smile about?
Cheers, Bob
Lovely job again lads another cracking buy,quality paint repair keep the videos rolling 👌
That paint job was spot on Rob its really satisfying when you find someone who is genuinely good at their job. Another wad of notes in the back pocket lol.
I can see why your going to be sticking with this new bodywork/paint guy ,nice job 👍
Wow yes that was a really good price and let’s hope it passes the mot and with out then advisors and will you do a video of it having the mot test
Paint job is superb mate. Lovely car, thought it was worth twice that. Shows how much I know.
I had one of these cars. I had the 170bhp version with a remap taking it to around 185bhp. It was an absolute weapon. I love the way they look as well. I think they have aged really well. Easily get 250k miles out of it. Yours could do with a new steering wheel.
hi rob use some brake fluid on a rag on the headlights to clean them it removes all the yellowing
Love watching your videos mate your the best I love to work for you mate
Glad to see someone else have trouble with VAG door handles. I had the same trouble with my Lupo.
“Sounds like a Golf “ 🤣🤣🤣 Showing your age there Rob !! Those handles can be a right mare ! Once spent nearly two hours trying to refit one ..... 😬😬 Another great vid tonight lads 👍🏼👍🏼 Thank you 😊
It took 2 hours lol
Another great episode fellas 👏🏻
Love it Rob “ sounds like a golf “ lol someone is going to get a bargain they are a great little car thanks for another great vid .
nice motor Rob and Chris lovely job hope it sells quick
Nice paint job, good profit. All good.
Thanks
Another great video Rob. Hope one day to see you work on a salvage Citroen.
Nice job and a bargain for the next owner,👍👍👍👍
Great quality paintwork can you share painter details would be good to give some extra work 👌
Unfortunately not sorry lol
hey mate, where do you advertise your cars. I am interested . cheers
Eye spy with my little eye I can see a motor home in the reflection oh my my sneak peaks ey ;)
Fantastic....maybe the BBC could offer you two their Top Gear Show ? Be better content than the three stooges they currently employ
That paint price was great 👍
For how well it’s come out it’s a bargain for paint. I want my car done by him lol I’ll pay more than £150 to have it done if it comes out like the golf did.
Great little car i had one and should have kept it , put petrol in mine by mistake and it ran like a dream !!!! STAY SAFE 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Another good vid 👍
wasn't aware the door skin was bolted on.
off topic question, was curious to what the 3/8 battery ratchet you were using, sealey or milwaukee
thanks
There is a link for it in the description bud 👍
Why not take the drivers wing to the paint shop and fix it at the same time as the door? Cheap car or not, rust doesn't look good at all.
Hi rob and Chris the vw golf is coming again really nicely now and another great video and I’m sure you doing the preparations will save you money at the paint shop and the door looks really good and hope you are both staying safe and well and hope you get a good profit on this one
Did you miss half the video Ben
Great job guys! Keep them coming 👌
The new painter has made a really good job with it
Great job as always, just one question, where is the rear wiper?
Keep up the great work. 👍
It’s been blanked 👍
Love your videos, keep them coming.
wow what a job paint job i just had my car sill painted but it wasnt like that cost me 175 for paint ,great video mate
It looks like the back wiper is missing
Hear that.......... Sounds just like a golf
Wow that door is the exact same colour jhezzz
Great vid boys and it would be good if you could show cleaning the headlight lens on this or in a future one or is the vid somewhere on your channel I’ve watched them all so I can’t believe I’ve missed it 👍
Yes on the Honda hrv 👍
Hi, I have a my v golf tai. I have the original vow stereo that you can have for the price of the postage if you wish
Cant go wrong with a golf ,done an get it sold
Excellent paint work. 1st class
Never apologise for making a profit. You and Chris earned it rather than stole it
I didn’t 👍
I’ve got a radio for a mk5. £15
Cuppa tea while watching you guys is just pure heaven!! Just a little question, how come you didn't service the golf? It is down to profit
It’s got fsh and just had a huge service including Cambelt 👍
@@sruk I must of somehow missed that information out in the videos. Thanks for reply, keep up the good work 👌
Usually the plug under the seat to knock the air bag light out Rob !!!
Yes the drivers seat normally 👍
Come out really nice 👍🏼
Door handles and locks are always a pain haha rememember when I did 2 on my old BMW E60
1.1m views on your
I bought the cheapest Range Rover sport TDV6 in the UK
WOW impressive
Hi rob could you get me one them tshirt please .
Rob. Bit late now, but might help someone else in future but I've just been through similar thing with my Q5. Seems that VAG door weather strips requires a special VW tool (VW part number T40219 - costs £12) if you can get hold of one, they won't sell it to the general public.
I used a standard trim clip remover 👍
Nice car mate your asking too cheap for it
Profit is not a dirty word. Nice work.
Rob, the channel is getting better and better and the subs show it... Keep it up with these every day cars and vans and trucks...
wow boys what a cool flip
Fantastic repair! 👌
Annoyingly you can get an MoT advisory for rear wiper worn (immediate action required!). I guess if is completely missing it is OK.
How is that even part of the test? Sure saloon cars don't even have rear wipers fitted
It’s blanked off it’s not part of the mot 👍
@@philipscott1128 Maybe it is like the spare tyre. You can fail the MoT for a bad spare tyre, but if you removed it before the test you did not fail.
@@jamescaley9942 You can't get a fail for a bad spare tyre or rear wiper. Not all cars have it and no tester should fail it 👍
Nice job. Good work.
Is the rear wiper missing?
Blanked 👍
I was quite surprised how much quicker the TDGTI was over the standard GTI, you have done a great job, as usual, well done lads.
Door mirror Rob lol not wing mirror lol
great video as always... like to make a small suggestion for refurbin ya headlights..... i use Farecla AG3/1400 1L Advanced G3 Liquid.
its liturally like a polish. no need for the sand paper an takes minutes... makes ya headlights like new, made my cmax lights new again ha
What happened to the other Painter and did you sell that small car for his daughter
No still got that one 👍
