    I absolutely love your channel. You guys not only do top quality repairs but you also make it entertaining. As a guy who's been round construction all my life and one of my grandads being a mechanic/body repairer and the other being an engineer every time I watch one your videos it take me right back my childhood. I'm now a 50 year old living in France renovating an old farmhouse and try to never miss one of your video's Chris reminds me of both grandads as he seems to be able to turn his hand to anything and do it to an exceptionally high standard. Keep it up guys you fail to disappoint and at times make me emotional thinking of my childhood when helping my grandads. 👍🙂

Just one thing to mention, please put carpet or cardboard down on the floor when you are resting panels etc on the ground minor niggle I know but it stops possible damage accruing.. off my soap box now.

    I literally had the same experience with Mercedes yesterday/today in Plymouth, couldn't find a part anywhere in the UK for my C200, was £32.50 on eBay with a 2 week wait. Got the part along with another today for £20.10 they ordered it in for me and took less than 24 hours. Have to admit their customer service really stands out too as well as the price. Another great job guys!

    You guys have the knack to find good fixable salvage vehicles. Once in a while you make a mistake (like recently) but shows you are human. Chris with his excellent bodywork skills and Rob's general skills, proper use of outside companies for specialty work, where to look for and getting good deals from vendors, adds to your margins. For sure you get the 'sweat equity' you put into this car and the final owner will be pleased as punch with it.

    Stunning result Chris and Rob! Once again, very friendly pricing! Rob: I know you love a bit of English language stuff... You combined two standard terms and phrases into one new one! Item 1 the word: Mismatch, and 2, the phrase: mix-and-match. You came up with a new hybrid word of: "mixmatch". Not a word yet Rob! But maybe it'll catch on! By the way the term for misheard / mis-spoken phrases is "eggcorns" Great vids fellas. I want to see more boat stuff 🙂

  • @johnpritchard2772
    @johnpritchard2772 Год назад

    Hello Chris & Rob, how well you both work with each other - so important, also, your work ethics = being totally truthful on what you have been doing, and the people who support your buisness with spares. Honest and realistic in your costings and final price for selling on the car(s) shows how dedicated you both are in giving the buyer / customer the best that you both can do!! WELL DONE!! I wish that there was a good car valeting place near me, like the one you use!! Best wishes from Lincolnshire.
