“No point pulling your plums out for no reason” - I think I am going to get that printed on to a t-shirt!
“No point getting your plums out…….” Another Chris classic 🤣🤣🤣🤣. That looks a lovely repair lads. Should be a great series.
Knocking your plumbs out old but gold 👍
Rob we need a compilation video of Chris tit bit sayings 😂😂
“It’s had a fair knock but, until we get the bumper off we don’t know how bad it is” Chris says calmly 😂the bloke is a legend, nothing fazes him at all!!!
When that tailgate came minus the lights I'd have told them to take it away & refund the money. You can't charge for one thing then deliver another, imho.
There's a reason they had a 96% feedback!
Just love Chris's skeleton key for the tailgate! Chris looked at home in that Rob, hmmm! What a car it will be when finished...Thanks guys.
That seller listed a better looking part to sell the crap one in my opinion, then has the cheek to try and get another £50 for the light!, Cheeky bugger.
I think Synetiq should honour the original purchase in that they should supply the parts that would have been included in the other tailgate.
Hi chris and rob that boot lid you ordered is the usual stint of some these recycling centres pull by showing you a complete and then give you a totally different one... with some excuse in your case it was damaged so why did they not get in touch and show you (maybe chris could have repaired it after seeing it).... why did they not take the lights off the damaged one and send separately... reason they did not have that one there in stock in first place....i would definitely ask for a rebate as you were supplied not as described.....onwards and upwards boys looking forward to the next episode of this motor as per usual ....can i say please dont have the camera so far away from shot as you cant see the nitty gritty of the parts your describing 👍
I’m working on it
Chris is chomping at the bit to get a start. The man is a legend in my eyes! Great video as always lads!
I had a rear end collision in 1993 with my 1986 Ford Orion and it was a write off, the car behind ended up in my boot at only 20 MPH! amazing how car protection and technology has come along.
Did that tailgate with the lights etc really get damaged in transit? Or did they realise they undersold it so told you it was damaged?.. Then to send you a replacement and then ask extra for the lights?.. Do hope you don't use them again..
Car vertical is really expensive but ok if you get free credits off them tho…..thats why he bigs them up so much.
Cheaper and better companies out there
Your first comment on the channel
@@acorndogs904 so who cares….oh you do
That was very naughty or sneaky of the tailgate supplier to "supply a different one because the more complete one got damaged" but was partly stripped! I reckon you should have at least been contacted first and been given the chance to look elsewhere.
I’m working on it 👍
I admire your patience and lack of negativity, because I’d have prattled on about that boot way more than you did and that’d been wrong, you just apprised us of the facts and your experience. After thinking about it for a while I understand why, it’s because there’s a good chance you may have to deal with them again, and best not to burn bridges. Your attitude is spot on, you let it go and moved on, because otherwise it’d have impact on the content of this video and I know you guys are all about spreading positivity. Good on ya
Any EBay seller with less that 98% Positive feedback, you have to wonder, case in point here.
You bought back lights, you're owed back lights - simple as.
I think your channels fast becoming my favourite RUclips go to.... Just really nice seeing honest people doing honest work.
I think they should be revising that boot lid price to 100 quid , no lights , wiring cut and damage to paint work that you need to fix and took ages to come.
Offered me £60
The dream team in perfect synchronisation! 2 best mates doing what they do best, and with a passion for cars. Lovely car lads. Should be a cracker.
Don't understand why people go mad about these A-Classes, seems like every chav and dealer under the sun drives one. Nothin special at all.
Never bother with their small cars.
Mercedes not what they once were..
@@static-audio in that case, hopefully, it wont be full of rust in 5 years time.
@@iamyourfuture808 it almost definitely will be almost scrap in no time
PCP, simple.
Thanks Chris and Rob - very enjoyable content - I like these assessment, planning; and parts acquisition stages. Cheers
That you get many of your vehicles directly from the owners saves a lot of hassle and auction fees, more profit for you. You 2 seem to have a knack to pick cars you can fix and make out good in the end. By the time you get done, it will be a excellent care for the future owner.
That job is right up Chris,'s Street he so happy and you can hear Rob's excitement in his voice really looking forward to the next one
Well done guy's can't wait 👏 👍
Really like it when you guys are just chatting through what you need for the build, like your old stuff.
Always great work on restoration of cars great team work,Chris is one of the best in the business great salvage work guys brilliant video 👍😎😎
I've been watching you channel for years now and I just want to say... its the best car channel on RUclips 💯👍🏻👍🏻
Such a load of specialist knowledge. Never had one of these in your hands before and you have a really good idea of how to deal with it. Very impressive.
SINETIQly Shafted
Took 10 days for them to source another. Bandits
I love how Chris brings in the big guns. Cant beat a pivot steer for lifting. Great helf and safety from Chris👌👌❤️
The tailgate ebay guys done you dirty, shame people like that take the mickey. Cars coming on nice though
I like your approach to assessing the damage to the car guy's. Good example of how to for anyone attempting a repair job. Well done guy's. Big thumb's up.
That hedge @ 30 secs is a treat!!
Guys don’t forget after paint on the boot lid, the badges from the replacement boot don’t match the originals. A220d - A250e if I’m not mistaken. Great video as always.
It’s amazing work you guys do. Fascinating as always and joy to watch and learn.
Guess that explains their 96.5% feedback then. Hope you get that light you ordered Rob as that's a bit cheeky of them to send an alternative that's not as good as what was pictured. Looking at their feedback history is a shocking read of poor customer service. Anyway, look forward to seeing you boys getting this back on the road. I'm sure Chris will have that bodywork straight in no time!
Brilliant video Rob and Chris two guys of your calibre easy repair well done guys love the channel and the work you do ❤
Good evening Rob & Chris. Like you said Rob a lovely bit of salvage 😊 Your channel is so magical you just don’t know what’s coming next lol 😆
Great video lads. Liking the talk over by Rob during the Timelapse and also Chris old photos on his Instagram of vehicles he’s repaired in the past.
another cracking video guys can't wait to see the end result of that lovely motor can't wait to see what's next on the channel. Keep them coming guys👍👍👍💯💯💯
Can't wait to see it finish guys I'm sure you'll do a cracking job on it like always. Love the videos 👍
Surely guys, if the ebay advert for the boot lid included rear lights etc, they have contravened the ad and, should replace what didn't arrive or, return some money.
Yea that’s right. They can’t sell something and swap it for a worse one and then tell you it’s going to be more money for the extra parts you were supposed to get to begin with.
I’m working on it
Very nice car, and project. Really looking forward to the next one! Thanks guys
Fantastic video as always both of you!! Thank you very much!! What a stunning car!! 👌
Great video guys , nice bit of salvage , good luck 👍👍👍👍👍
Nice work gentlemen as always, and very interesting too. Thank you for sharing.
thankyou gentlemen another thoroughly enjoyable upload,,looking forward to part two and the crunching of numbers,,👌👍
Thanks for the film. A very good new project which I'm sure you'll have up and running in no time. Annoying that they sent a different boot to the one advertised. Made up for it though with the light backing panel. Looking forward to see how this goes back together
it good how Chris thinks about your safety Rob good team work
That's a lovely motor Lads, when I first saw the damage I thought the legs would have been bent,but pleasantly surprised to see they weren't,a right bummer about the tailgate,bad business that, looking forward to the repair process!👍🇮🇪
You need to change the tail gate badge the tail gate you have put on is a 250 the car is a 220
🤦🏻♂️
I would dispute the fact that you bought a tailgate with lights etc and they sent you a second one without at the same price, they say the other tailgate got damaged, no problem, but they could of taken the lights out of it and sent them along with this other tailgate. why should you have to search again and then pay further amounts for another set of lights.
As I said in the video bud I’m sorting it out 👍
Great video again lads,love the detail in the voice over, this channel is so interesting, compared to others
Great video Rob & Chris, the voice over is working a treat 👍
no farting or swearing in a garage/work shop….. no such thing 😄
Loving the new style videos with the commentary - much more interesting
Looking forward to seing this one done guys we’ll done love it 👊🏻👊🏻
Lookkng forward to seeing the result! Great video as always guys!
You were shafted by that E bay seller, it's happened to me so many times I won't use E Bay again
What a nice car, not to much damage. Looking forward to seeing the next video.
Mint again fellas lovely high quality motor as normal 👌 I am glad that your not afraid of a challenge nice to see Chris 👀 👍 making good use of one of his many toys 😀. I hope the parts don't cost an arm and a leg good team work as usual take care and stay lucky and healthy looking forward to Saturdays video 📹 already. This will be a sweet ride for someone wants it when you have worked your magic on it 😊
Must say, 2 very nice gentlemen, some garages should take a leaf of yer book, ye so nice to each other and everything, congrats and continued success on the channel!
Thats insane, you paid for the boot in colour with both lights and intact loom and they want 50 quid now for a single light 😂
What a great buy guys will be a great car and will look new in no time I’m sure
Cheers for another great video 😜👍👍
Sweet little number guys, can't wait for the next video on this one!. 👍
Cracking motor guys. Specifically liked Chris on the tailgate opener.
Another great video can’t wait to see the finished product ❤
Another fascinating insight as to how modern cars are constructed, this time at the rear for a change. Good mix of repair techniques, including dozer work. Fabulous premium car for somebody after your combined skills and expertise have worked their magic👍😎
Good evening Rob and Chris, lovely looking car and will be lovely when it’s finished.
Very poor service from the Ebay company. Lots of people will be avoiding them in the future.
Thank you for taking the time to upload another video . Ged
Great video again guys.. looking forward to the follow up. Don't make as wait to long 😂👍
I would love that little mini camper bus at other side of fence! Beautiful little thing
Thanks guys I'm learning heaps great videos
Looks aload better already with just the tailgate fitted. Those scratches probably where synetiq store it on the concrete floor
Pulling your plums out 😂😂 haven’t heard that for years 😂😂 another great episode chaps 👍
Could be new Tee shirt merch
Always great to watch you guy's, thanks :)
I don't think I'd of been as polite over the tailgate incident, but I guess you might use the company again at some point. This car should be a great turnaround for you two.
That's a cracking bit of salvage there, especially with the damage being so localised. Shame about the new boot lid but im sure you'll sort that out with the company. Look forward to the progress on this one 👍🏻
Looks like fun guys. On the surface of it it really looks a quite simple repair. Let's hope it stays that way. Do we have to call you Mr Rob and Mr Chris now you have decided to move into up market cars? Best of luck on this one. Cheers, Bob
The sound was absolutely okay at the end, so no worries there. A nice project, you know how I like any amount of structural pulling 😂
Great purchase guys, look forward to part two. 👍👍👍👍👍
Will look amazing Rob when done!
Great buy ! :D
Top work as always guys
I Guess I know what breaker I won't be using if I want to get what I ordered.
Another great video guys 👍
This again shows up issues with reclaimers selling on e bay. How many times have we heard of the wrong component or even no component being delivered. Very little we can do apart from keep highlighting these issues. Great video as usual boys.
wow, such an organised unit too, loving the tool room
The loose change hunt always is the highlight of my day 😢. Nevermind, enjoyed the video anyway. 😉👍🏻
Hello Rob and Chris,what a nice car,the bootlid was a good find, annoying that the lights didn't come with it.thankfully the rear parts are separate to put back on.
Beauty, look forward to the numbers on this
Another great bit of salvage
Very nice car i think the interior is the best in class that what makes the a class so good
Hopefully the numbers work out well for you lads. Lovely motor
Nice car Rob looking forward to seeing the next video on it 👍
Cracking vid guys very interesting - can’t wait for the next episode. ✊👍
Nice bit of salvage 👍, masters at work again 👍
Guys I love watching your channel. Greetings from Poland
Great video again lovely motor be nice to see next part hopefully on saterday keep going guys
That is the sweetest sounding tractor I've ever heard!
What a brilliant video ! This is a great vehicle for a project now & good content for the channel 👌👌👌
Hi Rob and Chris what a lovely looking car and what a great video take care both and thankyou 👍🙂
Nice quick, easy repair for you guys 👌👍
£50 sheets for a 10 day delivery with parts missing and the wrong colour- I hope they sorted you lads.
They certainly deserve negative feedback.
Over 97000 feedback ratings for that parts company and under 96% positive feedback. I’ll avoid those chancers thank you
I think they tried to milk you guys, especially trying to charge extra for the lights, don't use them again guys
I would have said if they damaged it send both boot lids shocking treatment
Doesn’t help when u buy from an obvious chop shop
