OK everyone we need to gang up on Matt and force him to film the bit where he hands these things over to the valeters... We must pay for our entertainment here by acknowledging that poor man's pain and misery. Plus he's not a valeter, he's a Goddam magician.
Agree - that would be great but maybe he/she doesn't want to appear on camera.
Absolutely, the inside life of a valeter
@@matthewlewis2072 there are some channels like that with how they do it - it's a really skilled job to do it quickly, hard work too. Thameside should film one doing one of Matt's grubbymobiles
They may be safe, as a hazmat visor can protect their identity
He wears a false beard and dark glasses.😊
The owners could have done a £70 valet and probably got another £250 in P/X . Madness.
Do it themselves for a few pounds in supplies and save/make even more.
If they let it get in that condition in the first place, then you've got no chance in them paying £70 to get it cleaned!
ikr? still, their loss
@@DarkAngel-oq5ox question barking at me. If they care so little....not at all in fact,....how the hell was it driven?
@@colinjones2505 good question lol
You should be giving the valeteers a BIG tip, that is a remarkable transformation
How the hell can any sane person drive a car in that condition? The cleanliness in a car is a sign of the owner…
I know someone with a Freelander 2 in an even worse state. It's a total biohazard. The owner is a shoddy farmer!
My sister works with horses on a farm and with the amount of filthy muddy stuff she has to carry around, I understand why she doesn’t clean it often (or ever), it’s a constant losing battle. My cars immaculate I can’t stand dirt, but in the farming line of work, I understand why it’s easier not to bother. That doesn’t excuse trading it in like that though
Well said
Carry a German Shepard . You could valet , the car daily . You will still find dog hair ..
We have a Labrador guide dogs in training but always clean the car regularly - it's just something that has to be done - no excuses.@@garyhockaday8022
Entertainment guaranteed. The quick look over to the "regal" Rangie was pure Partridge along with "flaccid" grey. Excellent stuff.
Wife probably thinks I've lost the plot, but I'm chuckling away watching this. Thanks Matt, great video as always and a bargain for someone looking for a 1/2 decent winter hack.
He is quite humorous
Can’t we agree that whenever he uploads a new video it just makes our day 😊
Not sure I'd go that far, although I did turn England football game off to watch it.
Ive always thought that used car salespeople where a little bit greedy. After watching these videos and the grief of sorting stuff out and going back and forth various trades, i take back my previous misconception that ALL used car sales people were a bit dodgy. Well done for paying attention to the details, makes all the difference 🙌
Unfortunately Matt is the exception, he seems to work on basis of trying to avoid hassle and further problems by selling properly prepared cars, if we had not just bought a Holiday home car for families including dogs beach use 2009 Jaguar X Type 4x4 , this would have been ideal and great value at 4K
Most of them don’t do any of this work… they valet a car and sell it on
Having owned and driven around in many skips on wheels over the years 😀 I’d happily have this car as a daily driver ! A pretty amazing transformation from the barnyard look to the present! So again we’ll done Matt on the final presentation….your collection of blue Peter badges are growing at a fairly rapid pace 😂
Another extremely entertaining video........
I’ve never seen anyone so excited about 4 matching tyres
I had a sneaky feeling this would clean up well. Just a lot of surface grime rather than damage, you could tell the previous owner had actually looked after it. My sister works on a farm with horses and the amount of dirt that gets in there, I do understand why you’re fighting a losing battle keeping it clean. So in that line of work it’s just easier not to bother
Still no excuse....
Some people treat cars as a vehicle nothing more nothing less.@@davidperry3531
@@davidperry3531 Exactly my Ex had horses but we still managed to keep our cars clean . This car is just disgraceful full stop.
@@davidperry3531 no excuse to trade in a car like that granted, but with the amount of muddy stuff hauled around, merely an hour after cleaning it it looks like it did before. I hate being messy and I wouldn’t keep my car like that, but I understand when you just need a tool to do a job that you can rough up a bit
On a bad week when a horse feed bag splits, it’s muddy and you’ve got 3 kids in the back. A car can go from immaculate to destroyed and exceptionally smelly.
Good evening Matt, what a transformation. The seat guy did a great job as well as the car valet company. Hope it sells fast. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged.
Love your videos matt you come across as such a genuine guy amongst a lot of rogue dealers ive bought a couple of lemons in my time love the variety of motors you buy and the transformations
I find this channel very comforting and satisyfying to watch. Bravo
Matt i been watching your videos for ages now, & i really do enjoy them . I am so glad that in this one you did not have to say " I massively overspent again " . Keep the great videos coming . Looking forward to the next one .
Love the videos man, keep them up 😊
Another great video Matt always enjoy watching these and not a massive overspend!!. I have a 2007 Chevrolet Captiva version of this 3.2 v6 with 288k km on it.
I'm amazed a modern mundane Chevy made it over 100k km!!
That wonder grip glue....strong stuff eh! That transit never seems to move!! Great video as always. Cheers.
Amazed how well this cleaned up. Should last a good few more years.
Nice one matt that has scrubbed up well and with that mileage and service history I don't think you'll have a problem selling it at that price another one saved matt and you've not massively overspent 😉another great video 👍
Car dealer casually not recognising bicycle inner tube, but is delighted about the chaffing cream!
I’m not a cyclist
@@HighPeakAutos I know, Matt, why would we be? Great comments about the owners again, keep up the good work! The subtle humour in your videos brighten our days! I loved how you slaughtered the big auto Citroen in another video!
Love these videos I’m looking forward to a used Ford focus ST video but all these are still quality your a top bloke 👍😁
Really enjoy your vids and always look forward to them…. Keep doing what your doing 🤷🏼♂️👌🏼
Thanks 👍
@@GMT439 I’m not saying you should buy it
Looking forward to watching this one!
Fantastic transformation looks better than when it left the factory, excellent work Matt!
Great results Matt, decent car with years left in it.
Great video Matt I don’t like Vauxhalls but it looked ok tbh when you had fettled it! Laughed out loud when you said you had to give your clothes a good wash.
Love these videos thanks
A superb job done on it. Refreshed & ready for it's new owner.
You know its a good day when theres a upload on High Peak Autos yt channel
Before and after, superb result!
Owned a 2009 se Antara , drove ok , towed the caravan very well actually, self leveling rear shocks. But it was very thirsty 19 mpg average. 😮
Another winner Matt - Awesome video
Thanks again!
To be honest, I really enjoy watching your videos. ❤❤
The 'liquorice' is just a bicycle inner tube. About the lest offensive of the detritus you found in there.
Mad that a Vauxhall is one of the better cheap cars you've shown us! Great video as always
Timely video, I was just looking at one of these. I have the same drivetrain in a Chevrolet Orlando and (touch wood) it’s been great as it clicks over 240,000km
The engine is a different unit to the more common 2.0 GM diesel that you see in the Insignia I think, although it has the same output.
Best of luck with the sale.
Talk about turning a sow's ear into a silk purse!! well done matt, the car now looks great 🙂 love the videos mate, and i only live down the road in sunny reddish,lol.
That was always going to be an easy job, very satisfying. I don’t like Vauxhalls and large manual SUV-type vehicles, but that model looks like a decent family car.
Good video Matt cleaned up well better than the usual death traps you get 😅
excelent video
The GG L322 looking lovely in that car park sun light. Nice to see it’s being kept clean - as if you wouldn’t !
Great result on this one! Pretty straightforward going, I think there's soon a new owner for this, the mileage not too high and technically in pretty good shape.
Don't remember noticing one of these cars before. Great video.
Nice comeback!😀
it looks magnificent Matt
I saw you this morning on the A34 between congleton and Alderney edge, sounds really sad but I’m always looking out for nice numberplates when I’m down that end and recognised your plate on the white ranger over 😂
it is extremely sad that is
@@mikenewbold1699it really is 🤣 it’s 1 of the most affluent parts of the uk, so some of the plates you see are worth more than my house!
why do you care about money so much?@@ShalomBrother
@@mikenewbold1699 pretty sure I said it’s the nice number-plates I’m interested in
That liquorice thing, Matt, was a spare inner tube for a bike. Looks like they were a cyclist and transported farm animals as a side line!
I have to add that I pray that he was just joking because it takes a special kind of stupid people to not know what an inner tube of a bicycle looks like.
@@petrirantavalli859or maybe he just never associated with peasants using inner tubes and went tubeless on his personal shredder, as all pros do.
Ford Freda is the Bongo equivalent Matt , also TOG 24 founded in 1958 in West Yorkshire made kit bags and football hits , branched to outdoor clothing which I buy a lot of , fantastic value for money!
Looks really good after the clean
Somehow reminds me of back home. In Australia now but was back in that area back in the day , funny how I watch this stuff reminds me of home
You always make hay whilst the sun shines! I don’t know why, but your uploads are strangely compelling to watch. I somehow think it’s related to your honest reactions and really saying what’s on your mind (like Carl Pilkington, but well spoken in some way!) . I’m watching a reality TV where man meets machine, staring a polite and non confrontational male Kim Woodburn disgusted by dirty cars and fixing them up for someone else to enjoy 😂
Nice car in the end.Matt I like your new sunglasses 😂
Gee, you wouldn’t have thought something that awful cold come up that well. And, with a bit of work has become a car someone can drive happily for years. Great video, Matt. Well done.
Would love to See a First Generation Kia Ceed🎉
The 3 or 5 door? I had a 1st gen Pro'ceed Diesel (3 door) from May 2017 to August 2023 and it was a very comfortable cruiser.
Brilliant throw away line, "We don't have a spare tyre but we have more hay" lol, choked on my coffee. About time you started carrying around a set of coveralls Matt....this was nearly that day they were needed, but the day is coming? keep on going....fantastic entertainment.
Have to say, that was a laugh out loud moment when I saw the state of the inside. Absolutely minging.
You should start taking seat protectors with you...Brave!!
Great job. I just hope those mints didn't go to waste.
loving the look at it very regal comment , once again another great vid
I made the mistake of watching this video while eating my dinner.
So dirty!! _Get the hose! No, the fire hose._
On the bright side, she cleaned up very well, and those shades legit look good on you, Matt.
9:20 that's probably a bicycle inner tube. explains the credit card multitool and in some fashion, the chafing cream
That looks like Chessie Wotsits beside the driver's seat. I love them. Previous owner obv. a person of considerable taste.
Had a 63 plate Antara 4x4 Nav +. Kept it for 6 months. Terrible drive, terrible fuel consumption and just horrible. Top info screen wound me up as well. Didn’t loose cash on it but lessons learned!
Nice one.. well saved😊
Great review Matt, I have one of these a White Antara Diamond 2WD,the 4x4 does have quite high running costs, I call mine the "Antara Anonymous", try finding it in a supermarket car park full of white SUV'S 😊, A plus point being they are well specc'd, however the ride quality is abysmal, but as a family car the Antara Anonymous does it's job OK & are currently good value for money. 👍
Not surprised at the filth in some cars. Used to live by an infant/primary school. Every day when I walked past at opening or closing times, I couldn't help but notice the disgusting state of some parents cars - rubbish left to rot in footwells. I can only assume the kids where being acclimatised to the germs.
Keep them up matt
You can even see the mats after the vallet!
Good job 👍
I’ve seen cleaner skips than the inside of that car. Great video again Matt.
I'm going to bed now after watching another very entertaining video. My main concern is whether I wake up in the middle of the night picturing where the anti chafing cream has been used!😮
Don't know about the sunglasses Matt but Tog 24 make bloody good clothing. Good video,car came out well.
Just wanted to say that "That was a big fly, wasn't it?" and "Are yer chafing, dear?" split my sides 🤣
Well that was quite a transformation, good job! BTW, no one says 'snazzy' anymore.
Suprised you initially sat inside that Matt! Valeters did a great job 👍🏼
Blimey. Turns out to be quite a decent motor. Well done Matt.
What a total turn round 👌🏼
My friends mum used to have one of these. She used to use the kettle with boiling water to defrost the windscreen.
Well you got me there Matt. The first car that I never even heard of, or knew existed! Even the Ssanyong Tivoli I'd seen a few of knocking about. Not a bad looking motor to be fair. Cleaned up well too! I understand that in certain environments it's difficult to keep a car clean, but Jesus when you're trading it in, spend a few bob getting it clean, or a couple of hours yourself. I could never hand a car over in that state!
It towed a horse box for Felicity's pony
Another good video Matt 🚗🚙🚘👏👏👏👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I bet Thameside loved you for this one!
The interior in your Range Rover ❤🔥
We have the Holden Captiva in Australia. They're very popular here. Well, they were, until Holden wound up operations.
I own a 2012 Astra. Only spent about £500 in parts over 6 years, excellent value for money! Good fuel economy and reliability.
I've recently fancied a VW Caddy, and I never knew why. Now I do. It's because of the lovely one in the background of these videos 😂 (by the way, an excellent example of a tastefully modified car)
Hi Matt well done what a state that car was in. Surprised it did not need windscreen wiper blades with all that dirt flying around in Yorkshire.
felt sorry for your cream hoodie!! 😄
Farmers 4x4's are off-road builders vans. Expect mechanically sound and prepped for bad/winter roads...& sheep dip friendly interiors!
I once did an appraisal on a Volvo 765 GLE, couldn’t see much as it was covered in mud. I jumped in and noticed I was sharing the space with two sheep! I love a dirty car, so rewarding to see the transition
Hiii 👋 Watching your videos became a favourite part of my weekly routine. Happy monday!🥰🥰 A guinea pig drove this car 😂
Great little car for the money Matt.
As a single father and car owner, I will say that it is possible to have a clean house, clean car AND have kids. Discipline and respect start at home.
Hey up Matt👌
HI Matt, You need to start wearing those white CSI overalls 😮🤣🤣
Hi Matt, great video and as I would say in French Dieu du Ciel" what kind of people does that to their car? "Tu Pleasent j'espere" I will never want to get in a car that dirty, also seemed as though they carried hay stacks inside the car rather than the boot, At least it cleaned up nice.
That’s a clean , tidy car. Should sell well and very quickly
Hi matt love your videos ..does it put you off buying a car with a tow bar fitted ? Most dealers won't touch them ?
Very Good episode. What is the secret to buy cars like in video for such amazing prices ???
