Another dead and buried motor that's going to mean a great deal to the next owner. Well done, Rob. As honest and transparent as ever.
I see a fuel flap and I want it painted black.....
Top content again, cheers.
Winter is here, Chris has his beany on😂
Yeahhh lol
In this throw away society, it is really good to see you and Chris recycling cars into worthy transport. Keep it up guys.
That’s it exactly - most environmentally friendly car is the one already built !
I think what is really important in this video is that you were prepared to stand by the deal, even though you broke your own rules about a pre purchase Vertical check! that’s honourable and quite rare these days. Reputation is hard to come by but easily lost and even more difficult to regain. Love your work.
For touching up use a wooden tooth pick as you can poke the paint into the edges of the chip with out leaving a blob which happens with those pens and brushes it's the nature of the beast, it's something I picked up from been a detailer but you do right trading it been a double bumper👍
That is going to be a life saver for someone without a lot of money. A young family maybe. Good on you
I love these type of quick flip videos, that Audi will do someone a good turn, it’s an half decent car that you’ve put back on the road instead of it gathering moss on someone’s drive. Top job. 👍👍👍👍
Even for someone doing deliveries like just eat, deliveroo etc as a second car don't need to worry about dents and scuffs.
Some little torag has had a reet go at pinching that haven't they.
"The end of it fell off, so I ran inside and got a cotton bud" lol, your videos always make me smile buddy..
Thanks Rob
Before the video started I was convinced that the A3 was £500 as a CD was jammed in the stereo constantly playing "Agadoo" by Black Lace at maximum volume on repeat! Imagine the horror! As for the car what with it being a 1.6 petrol it will make for a great vehicle to take to railway stations, leave at the airport, or use for school runs, etc. what with it being tatty. Alternatively a good vehicle to teach yourself body repairs on. Good value at £1250, hope someone snaps it up. Thank you.
Hi Rob,
When you said you were going to pass it to a trader only I was shouting at the screen! I am so glad you are going to do a trade sale via Instagram, yes you know one of us subscribers would bite your hand off for that at £1250.
New front pads, oil an filter service, replacement battery an a full MOT and only 75k on the clock. If you have less that 50 people standing in line with the cash I would be stunned.
Great stuff. Worth £1,250 to someone any day. Well done.
such an honest nice guy Rob - so refreshing - all the best to you
Only recently found this channel. Absolutely amazing what you both do. Keep the content coming. Slowly going through your old videos
Brilliant video Rob and Chris, great viewing for me and my lady on a Thursday night. Lovely to see a quick sort out on an oldie. Thank you guys! 👍😀
Hopefully buying a 335i tomorrow when it blows up I’ll message you bought it now collection on Tuesday
Your a really honest down to earth bloke Rob, I've been building four 34 years now,and believe me honest trade's man are few and far between my friend, it's guy's like you and Chris that give the general public peace of mind,, can't give you guys enough credit, God bless you both ❣️
You’re Honesty is the Biz ! Well done Rob & Chris again 👍👏
Love your channel rob. No bs just 2 honest guys in the motor trade. Love it. 👍
What a great little motor and a very fair asking price. Great video as always. Thanks for the ongoing efforts in providing excellent content. Stay safe Gents, Cheers 👍🏽🙂
the 1.6 litre BSE petrol engines on those older A3's could run for ages with no issues.
VAG had really reliable engines before they introduced TSI/TDI/TFSI engines.
500 pounds for one of those with no electrical problems is actually insanely cheap, you can make an insane profit just by taking it apart and selling its parts individually.
has always been the case with VAG cars - reasonably cheap but original OEM VAG parts are insanely expensive.
Rob - you've made the vehicle condition and history clear to any potential purchaser. By all means put it up for sale on Instagram, if anyone wants it they'll contact you. I would have no qualms about buying it myself, but I'm perfectly happy with what I've got. Keep up the good work, and I'm looking forward to the next video
Nice little run around for someone. Great video keep up the great work. 👍
Love the intro, Rob. Regarding offers for cars not yet listed. Shows complete credibility!
Ideal car if you live in the county as you would worry about mud, brambles or parking it!
Great video yet again Rob. Nice quick flip as you say. Loved the classic car video also. Keep doing em pal. Love how they are getting longer. Bang on that. Take care lads 🍺👍
I'm glad your giving us a chance to buy it. People like me don't mind motors like this. If I bought it and then found out it had that history, I would be pissed off. But not at all if you have told me before buying it.
You guys are amazing,I always look forward to your next video keep up your good work
One of the best channels on RUclips for excellent content, thanks very much to Rob and Chris.
You guys are just brilliant at wot you do love watching, it's nice especially trying to get them running and wots wrong and why brilliant channel
This looks to be a decent car, apart from the battle scars, however this goes to show how important it is to carry out checks, who would have known this car had been twice written off!❤️.
Modern cars get written off for what often seems like fairly minor accident damage. The complicated electronics, sensor systems and labour costs to replace such as a fully deployed SRS and airbag system can be the reason. It alone can make or break the margin for a car being repairable, or an uneconomical write off.
I always watch every video until the end 👌
Love your videos keep it up 👊
Great little flip. Like your thinking behind the pricing. Well done!
Glad we got a trip to Mark's in this vid...Great video to watch..
Hi Rob and Chris what a great video again take care both, 😊👍🏻
great work rob love the video keep them coming
Hello Rob and Chris. Thank you for another interesting video.
Great little car for £1250. I am sure someone will buy it, in fact it’s probably gone already.
Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged.
Very fair price sold as seen. On another note, no car battery will charge on tick over, it is simply not design that way, your are looking at minimum 1000rpm to put in what your getting out, 1200 plus to actually put a charge in. Sorry to rant, I have this problem at work when the guys get jumped and then just leave it running. Grrrr, love the channel
Always entertained by your work. Thank you greatly. Peace be unto you.
Nice easy programme today Rob an ideal car for a run around, good make and well built so well done again👍👍👍🚘🚘🚘
Good call. Nobody can say you have hidden the blemishes after this video and if you sell to a trader it will eventually go to a Retail buyer so you might as well go direct and offer it as a trade sale. Loads of people waiting ages for a new car will be happy to take it for a year or two. Personally, I am happy with a few dinks as I feel less bad when I add to them :)
Thanks for another great video, I'd say the same as I do here when I sell equipment. If somebody knows the exact truth you know about something and they still want it sell it to them as is where is, you aren't out to screw anybody over intentionally like some out there are. I sold a machine here this week a customer didn't want to spend the money on repairing. It was like that car still too good to scrap, so I did it in my spare time and bought the parts to get it right.
It priced at exactly what I had in it with my time and I told the buyer exactly where it came from and the whole history behind the deal. He was the first guy in the yard , wasn't wasting my time and would of paid full asking. I still knocked a bit off, because I wasn't going to spend a week dealing with time wasters before selling it either. Hope it sells of the lot for you, Take care.
Cracking little car and good content as always cheers Rob and Chris
wow I'm sure it will go like hot cakes as everyone who watches your channel knows you not going to rip anybody off and your always striaght up with the truth so it's going to be a cheap car for someone and another great video mate keep them coming can't wait to see more 💯💯💯👍👍👍👍
Honest and great trader not overpriced as traders these days selling cars in worse condition for much more keep up the great content m8
Yet another quality video great job guys
Nice and quick project guys ! Somebody will own a good car in the near future, thnx for he nice video !
Bangernomics at its best there Rob. Make someone on a budget a great little car.
Fantastic video keep up the good work can't wait for next video
Ignore the knockers that don’t like you having sponsors Rob, we’re following you for free and you’ve got to make a living so crack on Rob, you and Chris are absolutely brilliant. Warmest regards from “an old Thanet boy” 👍
Can't find Any knockers, get more views if there was.
Again nicely done, buying it at the right price helped, so if it did go the wrong way you had a bit of wiggle room. You've got nothing to lose by putting it on Insta and if it doesn't work out contact the traders. It's got a few marks but for that kind of money and mileage it's probably going to make a nice enough run around for someone.
I have worked on different cars over the years and I had a few like that ( some were worst than others ) I even did an Audi just like that but it was in a different colour. I would like to say thanks for these very interesting videos
Great wee motor the A3, I had one as a company car in the early to mid 2000's and if I'm honest it was a really great car to drive.
Considering it's age, that A3 has pretty low miles on it and as you said Rob, someone can get that car at a good price and run it till it's done in and it won't owe them anything. 👍😀
Can't go wrong with this rob full mot, service & fair price.
Another great episode gents and I think you are right Rob giving the Channel subscribers the chance to purchase it, fair price for a “Trade Sale” (I heard you loud and clear) as it has been written off before, but the mileage is such that it will be a great car for someone, Audi being a premier brand too. Thanks as always, keep it up.
This is exactly the type of car I would buy, it starts and runs... I don't care what it looks like!
I love cars with small dings all round, much cheaper and you don't have to worry about it getting dinged... already done
Worth it all day long, nice little run around for someone, great vid again chaps 👍
Great video and easy flip. Thanks for great week of content👍
Rob , Chris, I think the Audi will make somebody a good run about.
Those Ding's on the bodywork are livable . it's a decent motor for little money.
Super video.Ive got a 08 A4 auto. im just running it till it goes no more already had mine a year and its done 127k and still running.
The car has had both a cosseted and a hard life, with assaults on its form. However, it survived them and still emerged looking like a nice choice for someone. You have done it proud with your turn round effort and priced it very fairly, at that point no one can expect a 100,000-mile warrantee!
In my experience the traction control light and steering angle light can be where someone has taken a wheel off to check the brakes and not bothered to drive it afterwards to reset them, you have to move the car under power and turn the steering wheel to reset them
Should make someone a nice little runaround. Well done Rob 👍🥸
Great vid guys - it looks like a lot of the Motability Cars I used to pick up!
Great video, a bargain for someone and a days money so all good - just the sort of car that shouldn't be written off and scrapped just because it's scruffy with 2 insurance claims on it, the sort of car that's perfect as a winter beater for commuting to work/train station and keeping the shiny car/motorbike at home!
Someone's gonna love that car on a small budget as you say just sign a sold as seen paper to cover yourself...as you say they will be someone out there that will need that just the job... the sort of car that could go on forever well worth the risk for someone ...another great video guys 👍
Again, spot on with your price. Fair do’s
VAG cars nearly always show traction control and power steering lights after the battery has been disconnected, usually all you need to do is rotate the steering fully from one lock to the other. If power steering light doesn't go off, make sure there isn't a recurring ABS fault. Door module faults are nearly always down to flat battery or wiring to the doors.
A bit knocked about, well perhaps that's an understatement, if cars could talk! The four hours work was worth the money you are asking even with all its battle scars. Might be good for a first time driver, the insurance will probably be quite cheap. Nice video Rob and Chris and Nice to see you are back in the swing Rob. Take care gents. 👍👍
Having has a 58 plate that was the face lift like that one is (rear lights having led is a big giveaway) I can confirm that if you'd driven it, and turned lock to lock and got some charge in it, all of those dash lights would have gone off.
Each time I had a dead battery, everything lit up like a christmas tree and a quick loop around the block and it cleared itself.
In audi and VW the wheel light and traction light will go as soon as your drive the car. It allways comes on when you remove the battery.
The thing about the body work is,
It doesn't affect the reliability of the car does it,if you can live with the dings ,scratches and scuffs, it's a quality German ride.
At least if you come out of the supermarket to find that someone’s given it a parkers kiss it wouldn’t be the end of the world! 😊
That's a very honest description and a very very fair price.
Actually, quite a decent little motor all things considered. £1250 is fair.
Perfect for a street with ‘french parking’. Sharp end of a zip tie makes a good touch up applicator.
That’s a great little tip
Rob you and Chris are honest about the car well done guys about the Audi
GOOD TO SEE YOU BOTH GET ON SO WELL ,
Nice job giving subscribers a chance, it’s all good and very cheap
Will definitely get someone out of bother for a year 👍🏻👍🏻🙌
Great video keep up with the good work 👍
Wow didn’t realise I watched the whole video, absolutely love this! 🙌🏽
Great video, Anyone saying you sell a car too cheap is just stupid, You know what the car stand you, as long as you hit you're margin that's all that matters.
Great video as usual Rob 👍
Another interesting video,keep it going guys
Thanks Rob for a quick turnaround vid.
This is why I love my 51 plate Agila, Had a new battery the day after I brought it. No electric windows, no central locking ( well at least not from factory, I put a basic one in to unlock the drivers door only) and apart from a £20 bluetooth cd player due to not being allowed to use our phone whilst driving (UK law for those watching abroad) from Amazon. Never had an issue. 71,020 miles.
Fair price IMO. Good luck with the sale, Love the vids 👍
Great video and Content Fellas! 👍
Nice little car guys 👍 , cheers & BIG RESPECT👊😎👍💯🔥🔥🔥
Another good service deed for someone who needs a car to get about. Well done. Be nice to get a subscription whip round for your team from us. Buy a nice meal or tools.
Great vid rob 👍
You two are brilliant, I wish more people were as ethical as you two. 👍
Great video Rob. That bodywork damage looks like that inflicted by a copper's baton on the driver's door and A pillar. I'd be interested to find out if the car had had new glass. Glad you are going to make a bit on the car.
Any way to check for police markers? They're a pain as they go to the vehicle not licence holder
@@JRH087 Not 100% sure but I asked a policeman about that and he said if you're pulled over and can prove the car has a new owner they should remove the marker.
Hi rob and chris good to see you both all good nice little motor Good for you both all the best to you and your family s :-) :-) :-)
Nice one lads great video again
Nice little car there. Great tip about pouring engine oil sideways to stop it going everywhere when topping it up. Cheers for that 👍 😁 👍
Another good video lads. Nice one on the sponsor too.
Great video as usual lads. I think it'd grand to put those low margin cars up for sale as trade sales. Plenty of viewers here that that car would dig out of a hole.
And even without a warranty knowing yourself and Chris put her eyes over it and not some cowboy is worth the gamble as you would say!
Hi guys you should be so proud of yourselves great job another one saved.
Jon.
Cheap and cheerful car. well done rob 👍
