Unbelievable to have the same van back again someone has spent a small fortune on the van looks great 👍🏻
I'd keep the caddy Rob to replace the blue combo it's bigger and looks nice salvage rebuilds down the side of it would really set it off.
If the vans still there I will buy it. Let me know
I live in California. So every Monday, Wednesday and Friday coffee in hand and ready to see your videos first thing in the morning.
Same but in New Zealand. Start work at 6:30am so get in a quick episode and coffee before work.
Uk with a cold Pepsi in hand
Tea n biscuits banging
Well someone has to live there i guess lol 😆
I live in Luton so after a hard days work of drinking Carling and sitting on the couch smoking I tune in and watch an episode
It’s amazing what a new set of wheels and colour coding does to a van/car!
Yes agree with you 100%
I used to flip cars, and often, I would just put on a set of premium wheels, and a polish. That alone would raise the value allot.
Stick a note in the glovebox, "to the new owner, I'll give you £2500 when you come to sell it"
And then sell it again for £3000, good business plan haha 😂
The little Peugeot 206 diesel sport that I used to own had an engine management light come on - it also had an MOT coming up so I filled it with super diesel as I'd been advised to do that to improve the emission test result. Lo and behold, the warning light went out! Mentioned it to the guy who was going to do the MOT and he said yeah, it works sometimes; he'd done it with VW diesels as well. These days I use premium diesel all the time, it's worth it for my peace of mind.
I think steptoe and son sold a homing pigeon 27 times before they were found out😂😂😂😂😂. Great video as ever guys 👍👍👍
Is definitely worth more than 3k
Someone spend money 1k on it and it looks totally different.
Win win for both of you 🤜🤛
185000miles on the clock.
Buying new bits and a bit of paint doesn't up the value of a vehicle i found that out when i spent over 2 grand on a vehicle i didn't get none of it back maybe if you put an expensive engine in it then ye but new shocks wheels and paint nah
@@djibazz7705 that's exactly what gets on my goat someone has a 2k car and spends 8k in modifications and then ask's 10k for it.
Glad you put 8k into it but it's still a 2k car
@@djibazz7705 I have a mk4 golf gti 1.8t that I've got atleast 20k into it she's running 400hp fully track prepared and is a weekend fast road/track toy
If I ever sold it its still only a mk4 golf gti
@@djibazz7705 )
Brilliant video as usual, I only found your channel about 8 weeks ago now wifey says I am addicted going back through all the other
Videos keep up the good work you both are really talented at what you do
Regards Ian
Brought a smile to my face lads, looks nice with the mods
Its almost like you have been renting that van out in a way! Amazing that someone spent quite a bit of money on it and then decided to sell it a few months later but a big bonus for your guys. It doesn't look over the top just enough to make it look more attractive so I expect it will fly out the door!
What a nice surprise 😂 somebody has turned it in to a decent looking van. Cracking deal lads.
£3K are you guys mad???? That van looks amazing, lots of extras on it, have you seen the price of vans at moment, especially modded VW's that look so good? Oh how I wish I still lived in Kent..... You really do sell some amazing vehicles at budget prices.
185000miles on the clock.
If you know your vdubs then you will know that that 185000 is nothing to what they can do!
@@jameshodson388 it's got what 70k left in it, 10yrs old so if the milage continues its got 3.5yrs until van hevan imo. Okay maybe not that awful thinking of it but the original post saying about wheels an stuff, yeah right looks dont get you to work in the morning 😉
@@toddlerj102 if its maintained and by the sounds of it, it has been, then there is no reason why with regular servicing it couldn't double its mileage.
@Paddy white got two t5, one camper 1.9 conversion and one 2.5 caravelle. Campers done 160 miles with a couple of hslfshafts and one dual mass. The problem 2.5 has 200 on it has a had a turbo and half shaft. Both never miss a beat and drive like new. Mate looks after company owned 2.5 and say not unusual to see them purring along with 350 on them. Each to their own
The exterior has come up really well and hope you are pleased with the results
Worth way more than that just with the way it looks. Pricing is all over the place and VWs tend to hold well but that caddy is worth it all day long. Atleast you’ll make a days profit out of it👍
That’s hilarious, I do like what’s been done to it though - looks great.
I just hope you have something of this size coming up again in the near future as I’d bite your hand off for it! (Unfortunately finances aren’t there just yet 🤦🏼♂️)
What a transformation can't believe both are the same van. Looks amazing pimped out.
2 of the 7 cars i own i have owned twice; mk2 golf gti 8v sold in 09 bought back in 2015 for buttons, rebuild and worth 10 times what i paid for it. 89 205 Gti 1.6 sorrento green sold in 06 bought back this year after 8 owners, rolling shell, van full of bits but i had to get it.... 🤦♂️😁 great vid again guys 👍😎
I love your channel.A Croydon lad living in Thai village with WiFi.lol A little piece of home.Very entertaining stuff.All the best !
wow Rob and Chris that guy has certainly spent some money on that van and to get it back and not know you have had it before shows how much you lose track of what you have sold on lol I'm sure that will fly out the door asoon as its up for sale as 3 grand is a good price for that smart looking van another great video guys can't wait to see more keep them coming 👍👍👍💯💯💯💯
You need a kit bag with all your essentials in it when viewing motors, then it’s as easy as pick the bag up before you leave your shop
That’s how i did it with my photography, different bags for different setups
That vans gone through some transformation! Colour coded bumpers look so nice on it
The bumper is original textured plastic, Most people spray the grill to the end of the fog light housing in gloss black, Quite weird seeing it cutoff where it does. And now is the best time for a clean caddy to be sold, deffo worth more than 3k as is! its immaculate, people with pay 4k for that and then put a new motor in it when it dies lol
Love the different content you always surprise me. Still got a smile on my face. 😁
Van looks really nice and in really good condition as well and hope you can make a good profit
WOW - You are at it again guys. What goes around comes around - you've got double bubble on that van. Serendiperty has blessed you again!
We keep reg's of all cars worked on for the spreadsheet, amazing what comes back around! Someone has spent a bit of money to make it look a bit smarter. I admire that you don't want to be greedy, but you could a little more out of that without even others blinking an eye. It came back to you to be sold for more haha!
Good idea but what is a spreadsheet
@@sruk a spreadsheet is what an excel document is called. It is basically just a data sheet
@@sruk sorry, excel spreadsheet on our computer, list the car by reg, price paid, cost of parts, labour time to complete, sold for price etc
@@sruk excel sheet
What goes around comes around!! 👍 Spot on little van!
Brilliant. The gift that keeps giving 👍👍
I was thinking what an upmarket van right up until Rob said it's got windy up windows 🪟. Happy reunion 🫂 with the van!!
Gr8 story love a van like this makes for a great business plan lads 👍
Hi Rob and chris I was just think about you guys buy back a vehicle the other day loved all the videos keep it going and can't wait to see the Ford fiesta finish
How funny is it that you got that little van back. Looks great.
A guy just round the corner from me had one he lowered it and painted it a mint colour. Someone smashed the back in. He must have brought bsck from the insurance because he got another one and painted it the same and swapped the parts over, it looked quite nice. Rob if you are trading in a small radius it is probably inevitable that you will get the odd boomerang. 😁 The lowering kit probably cost a few hundred pounds, I don't know now having been out of the custom car scene for a long time. I wounder if he got the wheels from Silverlake? Anyway the video was not a waste of time gents, it just shows how the motor trade works. You left a bit in it for the next guy.😁👍👍
Hope you are both staying safe and well
Get yourself a glue dent pulling kit (PDR) and watch a couple of vids, it's not hard to do with simple dents like on that van. I got a kit and it's well worth giving it a go.
Hi Rob,well,who would have thought you had the same van twice LOL,until you shown the pictures beforehand I didn't believe it.would make a brilliant valeting van.the owner has spent some time on the car.the wheels look expensive.👌
Da ja van!
Hi Rob & Chris can you set the bar by selling to the same trader again for the same price. 👍👍👍
That trader would be loving it 😂
Good to see selfie vid being used correctly (ie not back to front like Android phones do)!
Great vid as always Guys.
The van looks to me like its had a newer model facelift amongst the other mods you mentioned
You guys are more than nice with your pricing! You could easily get 1000£ profit for this vehicle especially with the care & attention to detail you put in every vehicle.
That's one heck of a good looking caddy 😎 thanks for another enjoyable video chaps 👍🏻
That’s a coincidence…He did a nice job with that you lads will sell it for that money all day long & someone will be getting a great deal on it…well done lads 👍😊
Another great video. Just a thought, have you considered buying flood damaged cars, would appear from bad weather in the se there must be quite a few that get written off. I’m guessing some will be totally useless but some could be worth a shot.
At the rate you two boys turn cars round this will keep happening every week. Another great video boys. Keep going. Easy to say now but I said to my Mrs, I’m sure they’ve done that one. Lol. Brilliant. Stay safe 👍🍺
Love the content again, nice to see genuine nice fellas making a living 👍🏻
That’s too funny! Great video. Why don’t you get a dent man in as it’s amazing what they do and the viewers may find it interesting. Keep up the good work you bloody legends
Great video 👍
That will go so quickly chaps and a nice little earner to be had.
Hi Rob & Chris great little van you got to keep it get sign writing down the sides it will look cool 👍
Love the video rob and Chris keep up the good work
Well that was a suprise for you two lol. The van looks cool how it's been done, especially after seeing how it looked before you traded it. 3k is fair with the miles on it despite what the comments section says. Thanks to you both for another great vid 👍
10:30 he didn’t spend a lot on the rep wheels or the ling long tyres.
Great to have a vehicle back when it’s been drastically improved to make a good profit on with very little work . Really pleased for you both 👍
cool win for you guys bonus from what it was originally looks very cool you really should think about the money after the guy doing the upgrades wheels ect
Brilliant traded it out and comes back retail ready looking forward to seeing you're next trick haha nice one
Thafs enough waffle Hi guys great video lovely van indeed and they are sort of vans to modify and use as everyday vehicle and the wheel do look like from a audi but cant belive you had van before top work and great content and that can has good value on it and love it guys well done 👍🚗🛠️
Omg when you was looking at the car I thought DV60 I know that van for some reason. When you pointed it out it dawned on me. Just shows you you did a good job first time round. 😂😂😂
Great transformation wish I had the dosh great job guys
Hi Rob & Chris) I think you bought bargain nice van good for you boys all the best to you & your familys
I am not a mechanic but love your channel and content, you two are as entertaining as the two Ronnie's. Love it keep it coming fellas.
Fantastic find again . It’s funny you never new . Fantastic videos
Need a few easy ones like this to keep funding that ST rebuild
I used to live in West Wickham in Kent in a flat above a garage there. Next to the sparrows den rugby club
WOW WORTH MUCH MORE GUYS PROVES HOW YOU GUYS ARE NOT GREADY KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Defo the best channel at the minute keep up the good work guy's
Wow they didn’t happen everyday surprise surprise. Great work and thanks for sharing this with us take care
Great video Rob 👍unbelievable!
Always enjoy your vids lads 👍
When you went to have a look at the van I knew it was the same van from that video from by looking at the grill and I thought "That's the same van" but it does look nice
All the radio needs is a CANBUS converter Rob, that will clear the radio code.
Good funny video lads .. and that little radio connector is £2 in Halford good little van for someone
Wow what a bargain for someone Rob! (I’m sure there must be an extra grand’s worth of bits on it at least!) 😊
Great video as always guys 👌👌
That’s NUTS!
Fancy getting one of the batch back again
Great to watch and learn how you've brought this Fiesta back to life. Looking forward to seeing the LSE getting on its feet again too. Really enjoy you working on the older classics. I'd like to see more about the Caterham and Chris tuning and maybe driving it. Thanks. All the best.
Hi rob hope you have had a good holiday and hope you had a good time
Swings and roundabouts... great vid !!!!!
You should get the dents done and sell it for 4 grand its a modified vw$$$!! Great video.
nice one chaps, funny but inevitable round about. 3k seems about right. good luck with the sale
I expect it’s original bumpers just colour coded..costs a fair bit to do it lol! Looks good though 🤙🏻
That is a massive improvement over the original van you sold.
There was a dent on the passenger rear arch but what a stunning little van
Hi Rob
noticed in the last few vids you have a new scan tool
it looks pretty good , what make and model is it ?
thanks 👍
Topdong
Lol! That’s a nice little surprise! At least you know what you got.
👍🏻👍🏻🇨🇦
Great stuff guys!
It's got sports seats too. Plus stereo, North of 800quid spend on it easily.
I’ve got a white 13 plate caddy, 1.6 tdi (75bhp) chipped to 104 . Absolutely love it. I can get 50 mpg easily. Although I can get it down to 25 when on a “b” road 🤣🤣
Hi Rob and Chris could not make it up lol 😂thank you for a great video again take care both 😊👍🏻
Its a cracking van, strange you have bought it twice , someone gets a lovely little van
Yes agree with you 100%
In the current climate you should be asking more for the caddy but any profit is a bonus well done.
Chris and Rob congratulations on reaching 215k subscribers ...
What a smart looking van somebody has turned it in to. Cheers for another unexpected video with great content.
Radio reception is bad on vw android headunits....I have 3 VWs with android and have installed USB DAB aerials in all 3 for crystal clear reception and more choice of station....dab aerial and booster are around £25 😀
Hi rob did u check the wire underneath the one series there's a wire what come from the battery might be rotten ❤❤❤
Had to do a double take rob I thought you had brought the van on to see if anyone noticed. It's a lovely van and someone has spent a lot of time on it. Used vans have shot up in price and are getting hard to find with everyone dropping on the amazon parcel deliveries since lockdown. My local car dealer offered a friend more money for his van than he paid for it from them two year ago.
I do like the caddy Van's looks like they made it like the r spec version
I would try to get to the bottom of that EML. Looks like it's been a problem a while judging by it's last MOT in Jan/Feb. Is that maybe why he sold it so quickly after - possible expensive problem?. A one mile drive isn't enough to check, I'd be taking it out for a good run to be honest. The last car that did that to me used to take at least 30 minutes to an hour before it came back, if not longer. Was an expensive fix for me in the end. Hope everything is ok with the van.
Can’t believe it so funny last owner spent a few bob on it .👍👍👍
Small world, thank you guys, peace.
Bumpers from the 1t3 touran fit the caddy which is where the front bumper is from 💪🏻👌🏻
