    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 Renault 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!

    Epic haul today, Kev! Loved seeing the variety of cars and the process of loading them up. That little Citroen with 880,000 miles still starting is crazy! Sounds like a great day, can't wait to see the Devon Truck Show too.

    I worked abroad and between projects or when in the UK on leave I would buy a little runner like one of those you loaded. My mate would check em out before purchase and then MOT them and take care of any little problems. It worked out cheaper than hiring and my daughter would run them out after my use, then it was the scrap heap for em. I was lent a Rolls Royce for two weeks to save me hiring, but the fuel alone came to more than the Hire and fuel I would have paid. But what a leave I had, and I was very thankful for that.

      Was going to say exactly the same thing, that Golf in particular has many more years in front of it with for just relatively small repair outlay, obviously without knowing what serviceable items it needs it’s got to be worth spending £500-£750 to get it tip top again.

    I wonder if the the younger generation are totally ignorant of car mechanics (not the person type) that they just go into 'scrap it, time for a new one' mode, just like their phone? It's not their fault, you can't even do a basic service on cars now. Great to see you have a 'easy' day & finish at sensible hr. PS; have you ever been 1st back to yard? LOL!

      Hi, thanks for your comment, i always give priority, often more than required but not when I'm already committed before the oncoming car came into view and the gaps in between the parked cars were not adequate for me to give priority.
      On your second point the edit cut in just before I un strapped and unplugged the charging cable.
      Thanks for your feedback, have a great day 👍
