Yeah precisely that with the relationship and absolutely spot on with my dilemma with cost 💲 vs time 🕰️ - it was a tough one but I think I made the right choice (& lucky enough to have the choice in the first place)

@@weirdfishcr4167 I for sure reckon there’ll be another collab, there is talk of us heading over to Europe in Convoy which I’m excited about !! ❤️

@@WagnerGimenes Wagnnnner!! Honestly when I record videos I feel like I’m speaking to you (and a few other names I remember =P) - thanks for your support as per always bro, this has been a hard couple weeks. Her name on TikTok is mykindawildtt - it’s different on Instagram but if you start there it should have links - her YT isn’t made yet I’m gonna keep the van build going by the way, hope you’ll carry on watching 🙌🏻

@@life_uncharted thanks mate <3 much love talk to you soon

@@Pootz1000 thanks Pootz! I think I’m gonna keep van build series going and probably the channel too, we *might* do joint adventures (SJ in her van, and me in mine) - but also it might just be more of me (Otis) and Sunny Jim

@@shanetreacyferguson2459 thanks for the comment. I agree with some of it, but YT absolutely is a job for some people, and pensions aren’t all that!! This lifestyle is a choice I guess, and you have to be Ok with the potential of it going wrong and having to workout a new path or alternative route - I appreciate you’d rather not support this - and that’s cool :)

Yet there are channels making millions per month. But you know. You just keep working for someone else and enjoy your meager pension. Those willing to take the risk may well get the reward.

@@JamesHeath-o6o hiya yeah they had her up on ramps and she’s for sure got a hole in side of the block, rod has gone for sure

@@JamesHeath-o6o which they showed us too

@@davidjohnson5369 thanks for your empathic message!! Not all of our dosh has been thrown inside the van.. we were doing what we could and showed the van to three separate garages for inspections with suspect noise, NONE of them noticed the 3 bolts loose on the steering fluid pump which took our alternator belt when it loosened, which subsequently we had the money for. We also paid for regular services, our insurance, living etc and were on the CUSP of getting out on the road & taking up work opportunities we’d both been cooking up. But now we’ve gotta get this done, and yes I’ll admit, the timing is ruddy awful, we didn’t expect a £6-8,000 engine replacement on an 150k mile engine where it seems a random rod went and pierced a hole in the block. Not anything that could be prevented, the mechanics say. On top of that, it’s clear to see that both myself and SJ in our separate videos are at pain with asking for donations, because we recognise that it could appear we’ve been short-sighted and not prepared for this ‘freak’ scenario. If it was a 1,200 turbo I wouldn’t be asking. I could find that. I just can’t find 6-8k and know that the power of the internet and community can be wonderful, and have participated in it for others out there - so yeah, we came here and begged, if that’s how you wanna say it 🙄

@onroutetonowhere maybe get a job first ........... but that would be silly wouldn't it.

@@davidjohnson5369 Great tragedy woow strong words for a van that’s broken I thought when you do this, you save money how are they going to travel across Europe with no money

@@georgeclayton5890 thank you George for your kind words! Going to post an update video soon :) also thank you so much for the donation, we’re gonna get the girl back on the road I’m sure! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

@@Awd.d yeah and steering fluid pump as well

@onroutetonowhere wtf man it takes 5mins to change the belt

@@onroutetonowhereare you sure it was alternator belt ? Not a cam belt ? £600 for alternator belt is crazy man. You need to start learning how to fixing your own van. Otherwise people will take advantage of you.

@@tpax3p it was for the steering fluid pump too But yeah, I definitely need to get to know under the hood, it’s been on my mind a while

@@Rob.1340 hey rob!! Every penny ruddy well counts and it is hugely helpful thank you so much!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️ will be posting an update soon

@@jimsmith-d3l I can appreciate this - we did have some rainy day money, we spent £550 on a service comfortably, and £650 on a new alternator belt/power steering fluid pump, we also managed to pay our AA renewal, and 2k on insurance.. but then yeah, the 8k new engine and gear box and turbo (potentially) did sneak up on us a bit :P

@@onroutetonowhere the moral of your story is finding the right van, and people may say you carnt prdict something major going, i think you can by resurch before you buy, never buy cheap high miles, if your idea is to live in a van then plan over and save for a few years

@@jimsmith-d3l agreed, and we did save for a year or so before we did buy, but we were rash in buying the van we did - but mechanic has said to us it was a random thing, nothing could’ve prevented it. A rod went, and it pierced a hole in the block - they’re saying the gearbox could’ve done it but there’s no way of knowing - we had 148k miles on clock - got her at 132k

@@GoodenuffCollective hey there! Welcome aboard :D glad to have you here

@@lewistaylor4620 yeah SJ did say to them to not turn it on but it’s behind us now. They did it and they showed us the hole in the block where the rod came out. We’re starting with a replacement engine and go from there 🙏😞

Yeah this is what we’ve been worrying about. They started the engine even when I told them not to they put oil in and then tried to start it. I think they made it worse. They’ve since told us it’s £7k for a fix and a new engine 😮😞

Aw thank you so much 🙏 honestly your words bring so much comfort to us right now. I know - honestly Christmas is the last thing on our minds - we just want our home back on her wheels ❤ really appreciate the support from the bottom of our hearts. Yes we will do an update soon on what exactly is going on with her and I’ll film under the van if anyone can see what the problem may be maybe we could get to the bottom of this lol ❤

@@terrytel4685 heya Terry! Yes sorry we’ve never done anything like this before so unsure I can get a link but I’m happy to share account details - honestly this support we’re receiving is life-giving!! Thank you so much ❤️ We’re hoping van is going to be looked at this afternoon and I’ll take some videos and put together an update I’ll figure out how to send you a DM and try and get a link or something ❤️

⁠keep positive and look after each other your viewers/subscribers are here for you let me know as soon as you get link sorted so we can all help x

@ thanks mate I’ve DM’d you back

@@Ian-ev5tg thank you Ian!! Your words mean a lot - I can feel the positive energy and my spirits are higher already - we will come out of this the other end!!

It can be so frustrating. And to be honest I’ve given you guys sh*t in the comments before. But I’ve been there with broken vehicles and it’s the worst feeling ever. You won’t be paying £10k. Don’t worry about that. Even a replacement engine fitted (a good used one) is less than £5k nothings broken so much that it can’t be fixed. Chin up

Oh man Wagner that is the nicest thing ever. You’re an absolute gem I can tell!! Thank you so much, I remember donating £50 when we were halfway through our build to a couple who had their engine blow on them - so I too believe in paying it forward! Thanks again mate this means so much to us ❤

@@ls1100 thank you, yeah gonna give the insurance a go now didn’t think of that cause there’s no fault or accident but might as well try

​@onroutetonowhere keep us updated it could be couple of seals or it could be new engine the the garage could be filling you with bull

​@onroutetonowhere look on youtube about oil leaks, which might give you an idea of what it could be, maybe how much it will cost

@@ls1100 yeah gotta see what they say when they get her up on the ramps but atm we still waiting :( but she said she heard knocking in engine so not a good sign - we also can’t trace or track the oil leak now as she’s drained all of her oil - so unless we pour more in can’t see the source of the leak - will deffo do an update video later once we know more

@@ls1100 yeah, cost she did mention 0000’s but she said can’t be sure till they’ve looked at her from underneath

@@ls1100 I’m not sure but I’ll try and find out and thank you so much for the well wishes, I’m sure we’ll get it squared! ❤️

​@@onroutetonowhere fingers crossed keep us updated ❤❤

Yes that’s a great idea I will go and film that now. I was in such a panic yesterday I didn’t get any footage of it 😢 thank you - yeah we are waiting on a quote from them now 🙏

@@onroutetonowhere You could make a new email account for subscribers to contact you privately if that appeals to you. I would pay a subscription on Patreon to see your newer videos early (you guys are quite entertaining) buy me a coffee might attract some donors that dont really feel go fund me. If there is a food bank nearby please engage with them, you need to prioritise your home (you could give back at a later time when you get ahead). Oh and it will all work out and be ok!

I wish I could help! All I can do is send you lots of love xxxxx

Hey guys. My heart bleeds for you 😭. I've put a segment in my video for tomorrow evening. Hopefully a few kind folk can chip in.
