- Welcome to another day in the life of KevTee, where every journey brings a new adventure in the world of scrap car collection. Join me as I hit the road in my trusty 7-car Scania transporter, navigating through towns and countryside to rescue vehicles that have reached the end of their road.
In each video, I take you along for the ride, sharing the ins and outs of my day-to-day work. From residential driveways to commercial lots, I encounter a variety of vehicles, each with its own story. Whether it's a classic car that's seen better days or a modern vehicle that's met an untimely end, I handle them all with care and professionalism.
My mission is more than just hauling away scrap; it's about sustainability and giving these cars a new lease on life, whether through recycling, salvaging parts, or even restoring them for the road. As part of the Charles Trent team, one of the country's leading vehicle recyclers, we're committed to eco-friendly practices, ensuring that each car is processed with the environment in mind.
So, buckle up and join me on this journey of discovery, challenges, and the occasional unexpected twist. Don't forget to subscribe for a regular dose of automotive adventures and insights into the fascinating world of vehicle recycling!

That Merc should be saved. That looks like a nice car.
The good people of Bristol have their own special and very unique way of using the roads 🥴
Amazed that they are being scrapped with so little wrong with them
Wasteful society I am afraid. Got to have the latest. Then they're skint in later life as they saved nothing
@@electroid8119 Actually a lot of it is caused by emission zones cropping up all over the UK, that make most pre-2015 diesels non-economically viable to use.
Folk buy diesels for the fuel economy, so to be faced with a daily charge to actually drive them, results in their premature scrappage, ironically INCREASING Global CO2 output massively.
That wee red van - wasn't driven by a man called Pat with a black & white cat was it ? 🤣
Looks like him and Jess will be walking for the foreseeable 😂
@@KevTee 🤣
and the merc...unbelievable!!!
Nice to see the Merc has got a fresh 12 months MOT. Too good to waste.
Ahh Cardiff, my neck of the woods. I recognise everywhere (in Cardiff) you went, the curse of being an ex-taxi driver.
You got a nice new shiny 24 plate i see. Man Trent's have some lorries now. Always looking out for you on the road mate
Another brilliant vlog Kev 👍🏻don’t know how you stay so calm 😅also that squeak??..that’s just Renaults for ya ..!!! Looking forward to the next one now..safe travels
Great stream plus you have a nice new lorry 🎉
That clattery red doblo from the undisclosed location that delivers letters - couldn't hear it for the flamin' disco noise you put on the track afterwards!
She is D, delirious
She is I, incredible
She is S, superficial
She is C, complicated
She is O, oh, oh, oh
24 reg truck with a squeaky steering wheel 😂 hope you got it sorted Kev
I remember coming back from London to Manchester, and got as far as Birmingham, when we had to stop because of an accident. It had just happened and I was about 3rd from the front. Two ambulances, one paramedic, three marked police cars, one unmarked police car and two fire engines turned up a couple of minutes after me. After about 10 minutes, we started moving. As I was passing the scene, it was a two vehicle shunt. I bet that when both cars were pulled apart, there wouldn't be a serious dent between them. That's Highways England for you.
So you’re loving the Cardiff traffic as well as Bristol Traffic
Royal Mail van and Royal Mail boxes for your spec lift straps/chains 🤣
No getting nothing past you is there clever clogs 😂
@@KevTee I thought they would have removed the Royal Mail cruciform and crown decals from the van before sending it off for scrap.
Kevin does a great job mate 😊😊
Felt a bit wrong with the music while loading the cars, cause it made it harder to hear the engines of the cars and maybe diagnose for ourselfes what possibly could be wrong with it. ( its a kinda fun game to guess ^^ )
My suggestion would be with the music if u still want to include it lay them over some driving scense
Kind regards
Hi kev,sorry im very late watching,another cracking video m8 and i really appreciate the driving footage as i could watch that all day😂was a very long day but you are a true professional and just dealt with it like a pro🙂👊👍
As you were driving down the road in Bristol, I noticed a potential near miss from a learner scooter rider that overtook you whilst you were passing parked cars, and then went straight across the roundabout, which actually took him the wrong way round. Definitely a foreigner
With 4600 and more Chinese Ev this week landed Bristol with few buyers auto logistics is going to become big business in Britain..a complete restructure and fulll relocation of the British auto park is going to come. The beneficiary: car movements.
On the firm i used to pull fridges for they often ran you 3 x 15 hours and 2 x13 hours shifts, they have gone now but the main office was in Crosshands.
Makes my blood boil this. Firms taking advantage and when accidents and deaths occur because of tiredness the firm will point the finger at the driver.
@@bottletree33 People who are not in transport do not realise drivers work up to 60 hours a week. 20 more than most jobs to get a living wage. Before i retired i spent 5 nights away in the truck with just a 45 hour break for my days off.
Just recently found your channel, subscribed & been binge watching ever since 😂👍
Great video as always Kev always looking forward to these vlogs every Week
Great video mate .. Question .. Is the height indicator located on your windscreen .. If it is ,.... You running at 20ft high or 20 mtrs! LOL
Hi Kev I saw you on m27 Tuesday twice as I drive a 8 wheeler tipper thumbs up to you
Such a lovely chirpy voice even when so tired . Loving the music too. Be well a.okx what about the Rover and the jeep you toured in a visited a special young fan ?
Wow Kev don’t get many long days like that one. Have you stopped giving out the price paid for the cars? Great video. Stay safe
Thanks, yeah was a long one, I still give the price for scrap but cars destined for the auction I try not to give them prices paid as I don't think its fair on the company 👍
Busy old day Kev!Hope your week goes ok.x
Oh I don’t miss traffic jams and accidents, you’re a man of much patience and wisdom Kev, so have you done the NC500 yet or is that on the back burner 🏴👍🏻
Bloody hell Kev haven't seen you in awhile the beard looks like you have put on weight???😮
Ahhh, I see that Toni wasn't fixing that second class red van.....
Sure was a long one mate, get some rest and do it all again tomorrow.
Driving on the motorways all across England & Wales I never once got any traffic in the late 90's t0 2006. What happened? I used to take the M4 and M5 A34, M40 almost daily. That squeak is probably a little bit of foam that's used for dust insulation that has moved enough to cause the problem. It's like electrical dust insulation not sure what you call it. Quick fix is silicone spray.
Classic red workshop courtesy vehicle 🤣
I’m guessing the Merc will be auctioned?
At this rate you may as well have coffee on a drip 🤣
Did you get that Doblo off of postman pat?
My dogs spent the entire video thinking there’s a squeaky toy somewhere 😂
I wonder who Kev collected that Royal Mail van from?
Kev ur looking like uncle albert
Save it😅
Long day! And you still find time to edit your videos! Do you ever sleep?
Not surprised a Royal Mail van they drive them hard at full speed and always battered up 🤣 awful drivers
Said you were in Bristol but in fact you were in Cardiff 9 minutes ish 🤣🤣
Just realised, you don't crayon on the back window, cat code, date etc. New Policy? How slow am I!!!
Haha its just something that seems to of disappeared over time, just less need for it now I think.
Car 2: unless there is something that has totaled it out mechanically then the insurance company are stupid as that car sounds fine and if it drove ok from the little drive you had in it kev I think this could be your next daily driver lol
Another new truck
Ha just noticed the last comment. It must be Pat’s if we both called it.
And not just because you got it at post breiniol (spelling) it really does look like Jess’s litter tray!
Keep that the one that drove off the drive way
a4 good breaker.make money on it
r m van looks mint compared to some i see o a daily basis
Kev, the discount code isn’t working??
Is that squeak on a band new truck?
Is that another new Renault truck?
You noticed 😂
Well you know what they say about Postie Vans, one careful owner and about forty utter lunatic drivers.
Do you have a new lorry already i thought you had a 73 reg one kev
Another great video has always kev 👍
Haha you noticed.... 73 plate was getting a bit old so upgraded to the 24 plate 😂
It’s pronounced Maygor boss.
😎😎👍👍❤❤
Who broke your new truck 😢
Bad accident on that stretch of motor way
Average speed in Bristol 8MPH if you are lucky!
A4 sad weekends work have it back on the road....throw away broken britain ...
Jesus kevtee that squeaky steering wheel is soooo annoying, let's hope tomorrow will be a better day
It's still quiet so the lube worked 😁
Kev you say your a class 1 HGV driver, but your not you only drive a rigid, you have a Class1 licence but you don't drive a class 1 vehicle.. please rectify this on your start up
Isn't it a shame how the binmen in Cardiff are so time restricted that they don't have time to pick up spilt rubbish. I'm pretty sure that the uk are the 2nd most trashy country next to India. In the whole world 🌎
Don’t see many Mercedes being scrapped!
You do round here ,driven by chavs and drug dealers, no maintenance, come mot time the repairs are more than the car is worth
Rear suspension failures are common,and very very expensive
Good video but wots with the stupid music. Much like to hear you waffling on more. Ditch the tunes😮
So wasteful
Hi Kev I certainly wouldn’t worry about you swearing 🤬 of camera as I worked in a right swearing 🤬 environment when I worked on the buses 🚍 with every second word being the F & C word Pal. 👍
I try not to have too much of a potty mouth for the sake of the younger audience 😂
@@KevTee yeah having not worked since 2013 because of my MS I very rarely swear nowadays if at all if I’m being honest with you Buddy. 👍
@rossmcgarrie9787 Likewise got my MS approx 1980, secondary progressive; had to retire 1994 from Ford, was an HGV Test Driver.
@@orsoncarte8536 I was diagnosed in November 2006. Been using a Powerchair for 3 years as I used a Scooter for years but since donated it to Scottish Vintage Bus Museum near Dunfermline mate.
