I have always appreciated the finer things in life nor never flippant with material objects and have owned a selection of sports cars for longer than 5 minutes. However, this is a common problem from sellers like these. It's called gluttony. For those of you who don't know what it means, here is a definition 'habitual greed or excess in eating' in this instance buyers who are never satisfied with what they have or appreciate their current car. Always looking for bigger, faster, better. It will never be enough.
Genuine question.. why does Jerome make an offer without seeing the car first and without checking the trade value? He's cost you an extra £500 before the service and brakes are factored in, so your profit margins are pretty slim. I guess the video revenue helps to balance the costs?
Seems like a decent guy hope someone didn’t put an MHD s2 on though no way that’s decat all of mine have been much louder than that s2. Then again I always go to NVM and get it done properly and I rebuild cars for a living so I know what’s been done😅solid cars though for an entry level into fast cars you can’t really complain few suspension mods and they track nicely too👍
Hi Calvin, I am after your help if possible. Could be a different/new one for you. I have a Jaguar XF 2.0D R Sport AWD in red with black wheels, 67 plate. But I really wanted a BMW but the BMW was sold from under me. Where can I message you privately?
@@ianmac8426 so you haven't got £35 for an oz of silver? I sold my 996 targa last year and in 4 years time when all the silver had been used up ,I'll be buying a turbo s ,😉.
Had a bmw 330i se 2008 then my children came and went to family cars now looking to get my car looking at bmw 440i 2018 or maybe 135 any thoughts guys would help
would recommend getting it 4 series big car good for family and comfort avoid b48 2 litre engine they are not reliable I have a bmw 2 series gt 220i unreliable

It does happen every now and then but a lot of the time people come to us because they’re about to buy a car elsewhere and but they’ve had a low offer as px so they come to us to get more money.
What is this shit buy a house look at Europe they save a massive deposit kids grown up then buy a house at about 35 or 40 both in good jobs not at 21 years old .
It's good financial planning. I'm in my potential forever house and only now at 40 am I thinking of buying an M3. House prices in England just keep getting more and more expensive each year, it's not the case in the majority of Europe.
I bought my house 12 years ago at the age of 24. It’s more than doubled in value since. This year I’ll be moving out of town, into the countryside, bigger house, lower value and will be virtually mortgage free as a result. More than one way to skin a cat 😉
I bought my first house at 21, I'm now 41 and pay off my mortgage in 2 years time, I have a modest income with 2 kids, when I'm 43 I plan to enjoy life even more than I already do, each to there own this was my plan and I'm happy with it

Decent bloke, Calvin … you have a very good way with people, no wonder you are successful.
Top geezer him... hope he has some luck jumping onto the housing ladder. Great car too at a fair price. 👍
11:05 What a coincidence that's the car calvin gave away 😂
This was before fam
Good to see you back to your roots Calvin, Missed the videos with private sellers
Love when someone says “new PS4’s a year ago”….. so the cords are showing then mate🤣
Stage 1....maybe. This guy has no idea.
Its had a service and stuffs! 😂
It's stage 1¼ with left wheel drive mate
He was using a generic plug in box it says it all …..
He’s being filmed his nerves will be shot
An mot check generally gives a good indication too
I used to own this car before Charlie, glad to see it’s still going strong!

Great video and what a lovely young lad
A lot of channels have started and are very good but you stop near the top if not the top great channel Cal
27 at home geezer should be rolling in it
N55 one of the best sounded 6 pots even with a decat
after watching the video of the gti its mad seeing you drive past it in the future but the past haha
Not one single issue apart from one issue 😂
He meant no serious issues 😂
apart from check engine

The video revenue goes to planet of dreams. Calvins just such a nice guy honestly.
A fun car is all the therapy a man needs 😉💪👍
I have a lCi m135i with MHD stage 2 and a decat and this doesn’t sound like it’s got decat
do you need a upgraded hpfp for stage 2 im thinking about going stage 2 mhd
The first video I watched of you Calvin was when you went to Jay kays house in that vauxhall carlton 😂
Same
What a sound guy he was
Sorry guys - falling asleep on this one 💤
Owned my lci 6 years stock average 3k a year only love it would never sell it for that money .
There loosing a lot of value but there great cars
@@marcust123went for crazy money in lockdown bout 20k now dropped due to insurance and people binning them
@@Arjunscarspov yh mate i noticed covid prices were unreal not a bad time to buy one now tho can pick one up for 8k now ive seen great value for money
@@marcust123 yep I bought a m140i before Covid for like 17k lockdown hit everyone wants one sold for 28k people are very stupid sometimes
@@marcust123 wouldn’t touch one now all them have been ragged I’d rather go for a 440i less people know of them or a m4 for a bit mroe

Surely there’s a BMW sponsorship on the horizon.
Golf gti interstellar moment
Nice guy nice car great video
Bit of a reality check to see them go for this kind of money... You just wiped about 5K off what I thought mine was worth 😮💨
Forget the transporter with blue lights the Mini Cooper following it had blue lights 😱
Soon as I see private seller I think planet of dreams.😊
Yes cal, hope you're all good bro 🙏....awesome vlog, you know....respect...looks like your passenger, ain't too happy..W.T.F, are you gettin into..
Calvin knew more about the owners car then he did 😂
He could sell that Batman on his wrist. Easy 11k right there toward a house
Could have sentimental value bmw 135i tend not to 😭
@rudifixes309 yeah but if he's struggling for the house... can always go back on the list for another haha
Batman is worth more than that and the prices are rock bottom so it's not good for the watch market at the moment
Probably a £500 fake.
Defo not real when he has a 10k car
Banking collapse incoming? Buy gold and silver 😉
And nobody has money to buy that 😂
Fuck gold and silver it’s not worth fuckall that shit
@@ianmac8426 so you haven't got £35 for an oz of silver? I sold my 996 targa last year and in 4 years time when all the silver had been used up ,I'll be buying a turbo s ,😉.
@@user-sl5bh8kr8h not if there’s a banking collapse you won’t.
How you going to buy a Porsche when money is worth nothing 😂
Calv your a very fair man one day I would like to meet you 👍🏼👍🏼
Why did the seller look like Calvin 😅
Cal, where do you get your wheels refurbed from?
Energy crisis 😂... corporate greed crisis
Nobody wants to protest this though 😅
Gutted i spent 8k last year on a seriously high mileage M135i pre face lift when i see this for 10k😔
Had a bmw 330i se 2008 then my children came and went to family cars now looking to get my car looking at bmw 440i 2018 or maybe 135 any thoughts guys would help
hi personally I would get 440i
straight 6 b58 reliable engine
would recommend getting it 4 series big car good for family and comfort avoid b48 2 litre engine they are not reliable I have a bmw 2 series gt 220i unreliable
M140i
Stage 2 plug in? Must be a good plug, i wonder if it has some flashing lights too

I’d love to part with my M135i Calv and upgrade to a M4 😅 maybe in the future we can make a deal 🤝
Didnt know they did at m135 lci
Thought the lci was the m140i
That's when they switched from PWG to EWG on the turbo. Although some early LCi had the PWG still.
@@Mac_F87early lci had ewg not pwg, ewg came in the late 2013 m135i's pfl
Stage 2 MHD map but only changed filters, engines gonna die early on this one...

Hahaha noticed that aswell
Do you ever get sellers buy cars from you after they sell their cars to you
It does happen every now and then but a lot of the time people come to us because they’re about to buy a car elsewhere and but they’ve had a low offer as px so they come to us to get more money.
@@CalvinsCarDiary Would be interesting to see a video of someone selling then buying

Hi
Why would you go from a m135i to a stupid diesel. Yuck.
I don’t like the 135i or the 140i no more guess I’m growing up
👍🏻👌🏻
Can you start adding chapters to your videos so we can skip the rubbish about Carvertical and the like...
🤗
never heard someone say BMWs are reliable lol, from my experience they are shit
