    You gonna convert one into a ULEZ compliant recovery van for yourself?

      @sruk  10 месяцев назад +12

      No we don’t need a ulez truck we don’t do recovery’s so were not really in London in fact I think Iv only ever been in once in my truck and had to pay so we will just pay the charge if we need to collect a car from the ulez zone 👍

    Just seen your videos since you hit just over 100k and in the last few days recently started watching them again. What was a huge surprise is Chris being on camera I know previously he didn’t want to be on camera being on camera/ social media isn’t for everyone but it’s great to see and he comes across very well on camera he’s doing a fab job.

  • @stephenricketts7764
    @stephenricketts7764 10 месяцев назад +1

    A wobbly turbo does not bode well but you two sorted it out. Now it sounds sweet enough, like a Transit as you say Rob. It is always good to give the guys at the car wash a mention, they do a really good job. That's two out the door, one to your friend and the '19 plate' to one of us subscribers at a good price and still a profit for you two. I think even if you 'borrow' parts from one you will still get money back on it. Well done Rob and Chris and thanks for another great video Gents. 👍👍

    Obviously the seats will be soaking and the cab will have some condensation over the next few days if you stick a small to medium sized dehumidifier in the cab for a few hours it will dry it out. Saves it going mouldy too

    With both you Rob and Chris being immaculate in your work practices it doesn’t matter what way round you do the video, I know that you said that you’re not going to video all 4 more of the pickups but it may be a good idea to hold them back as emergency fill ins 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻

  • @williamlloyd3769

    All Transits wear the outer edge on the passenger side tyre.
    No matter how many times you get the wheel alingment done, it will still wear down the outer tyre edge first.
    A customer of mine would call me out a few months after fitting a new tyre for him, to turn the tyre around on the rim to get even wear on the tyre!

  • @Ro32da72
    @Ro32da72 10 месяцев назад +2

    I know you said you won't do videos on all these Transit's, but it would be interesting to have a little bit of waffle about each one at some point as they're finished or disposed of, with an overall number crunch of 'we paid x for the lot', etc etc. As always, great to see you grafting and making money 🥰🛻🚙🚗

    @silverback7170 10 месяцев назад +1

    Sweet job there guy's, I know you both like giving a good deal to buyers, but on a personal note I still think you are selling yourselves short for the effort put in, and the peace of mind that a buyer can feel confident in a purchase from you both, you could put another £500-£1000 on that price, and the buyer would still be getting a bargain! 👌👍👍👍

    @michaelwalker1145 10 месяцев назад +2

    I see a few comments saying turn one for yourselves into a new recovery truck.
    If they are all 3.5 ton it's not worth it. You see loads of X super market delivery vans turned into them , usually at the side of the road with a cop car behind doing him for overloading 🤣🤣🤣. They need to be 5 ton and that throws up more nonsense to deal with.

    I was a motor mechanic for 50years & in that time have seen a lot of dodgy repairs but that turbo job was complete incompetence & I would seriously be in doubt as to whether the wet belt was actually changed & not abandoned because it proved to difficult.

    The thing with Robbing a Van for Bits and Charging Yourself an Estimate for that Bit is that you may want to Fix the Van that you have Robbed from for a Sale and as you Add the Bits back onto that Van that was Previous Robbed you will be Charging Yourself Twice for the same Bit.

    I'd be interested to hear how VAT affects your business and how it is payable on a truck but you have not said anything when you've had other work vans. It will also be interesting to hear how much you make out of the whole 'fleet' when the last one has gone. Good content, thanks.

    Guys BEWARE jet washing or even getting seats and on cars not LDV getting roof liners wet. Interiors have foam backing that rots when it gets wet.
