Landsails to the left of me, triangles on my right here I am, upside down in a ditch with you
brilliant!
😂 Classic.
Stuck in the middle with Matt, very funny, rock on Tommy!!
Are they as bad as Insa Turbos? I fitted a couple of their winter tyres to the front of my Octavia estate and they nearly threw me in the ditch at the first sign of damp on the roads. Avoid at all costs.
Not sure what your issue with Landsail tyres are, they do exactly what they say... sail across the central reservation into the nearest tree.
'I bought a cheap Peugeot' usually ends in tears😅
I bought a cheap Peugeot 206 around 6 years ago. 85k miles later the only major issue has been the clutch which I replaced.
The electrics are pretty terrible as well, but mechanically it’s been a very solid car. To my shame I haven’t serviced it once in that entire time as well, surprised it’s still going tbh but shows not all French cars are terrible!
I bought a Peugeot in general ends in tears.
I bougth two both were money pits.
@@Drenwickificationsame with my dads 307. Was pretty rubbish but the engine was really reliable
I wouldn't touch a Peugeot (pronounced as Puresh*t) with a barge pole. I know someone who had a 407 and the electrics were awful and the dashboard was more lit up with warning lights than the Starship Enterprise's command room.
Started off with "High Peak Autos" then we got "High Peak Property, I was really hoping for "High Peak Gardens".. I didn't expect the gods to give us "High Peak Scrap Yard" 😂
Joking aside, I always enjoy your episodes Matt. You're definitely the hardest working person in the motor industry. 😊
Hahah thanks!
He’s best thing on UA-cam
Or High Peak evs for the ultra rich virtue signallers?
"Sat in a scrap yard, in Stockport, in a mouldy 207 CC" had me in tears!
Since I know you like useless trivia, all those random holders are for the Samsung Galaxy S II (2011) smartphone - just as you recognise the trim level of random cars, I recognise the shapes of ancient smartphones 😂
More of a spores coupé than sports coupé.
Hehehe...nice work.
comment of the year
Looking forward to Renault Vel Satis video
They look great today as a new classic
Yea, It must be a luxurious car and it has the 3.5 V6 option.
@@RoderikvanReekum only a v6 thats going to be fun , not
@@paulmcgee1867 Fully agree - quirky and fun future classic. Same with the Citroen C6.

"I've seen worse, I've bought worse" raises hands, brilliant. Great vid, Matt. 👍
after Range Rover anything is better and the Pug oilers are usually pretty good.
That unguarded moment to camera of self awareness
Bought one for our daughter two years ago, 59 plate diesel, 96 K FSH, actually it's given no bother apart from front spring broke, service it regularly, she drives it from Rutland to London and back weekly, correct it's the GT like hers with the leather snd and onboard computer. She averages 60 mpg and loves it, now approaching 130.000 miles, just passed MOT with advisories on pitting on rear discs.
I bet your valeting guys threw a party hearing you were scrapping that !
4:47 "unless someone passed away"
The hearse in the background:
It's as new, low mileage and still has the original body.
I wouldn't be seen dead in one of those...
@@mrdunns3338 depends on what type of body is original knowing what it carries
You must have over £500 in the Navara roof rack & storage case.
I literally came here to make the same comment
You beat me to it Neil see above lol 👍👍
Yeah, Id buy it for 500 quid!
It would take more time & effort than it's worth.
Same, thought Matt would advertise the accessory parts at least but probably too busy making money elsewhere and sometimes you just need to make some progress...
I can't wait for the Vel Satis video. Since buying a 2006 Laguna, I've been all about the weird Renaults.
The Renault Safrane is the best Renault I've ever had. Incredible luxurious car...
I own Renault Megane 2, 2008, now and its cool )
@@theMaster... I agree, owned two in the past.
That thing has the build quality of a TV remote control 😂.
From 1988 😂
When I see these I immediately remember the Top Gear segment on Peugeots
My guess is that car was used for illegal deliveries hence all the power sockets to keep phones charged.
My guess is - that your right
what's an illegal delivery?
@@GRamerDim It's where your foot oversteps the bowling crease.
@@GRamerDim low level local dealer. Probably weed, up to about £500. As a guess.
@@McGubbins42Tried valiantly to refrain from saying this.. "taking out his middle stump".
I'll see myself out. 😔
Matt,
Scrap the lot of them, sell them to "High Peak " Metal Recyclers, clear the Car Park, sell it for development to "High Peak" Property, retire to Spain with sunshine and Sangria in a "High Peak" Holiday Villa. and live happily ever after,
In Australia mold under the visor would be the least of your problems....times I've put the visor down and been greeted by a huge meaty spider. Trick is to put the visor back up slowly and carefully before elmer the Huntsman flies in your lap and you drive into a lake....
"In a Mouldy 207CC - Where did it all go wrong" 😢😭😭😥😥 Hope you feel better now! 😎😎
Hi Matt what a fantastic video, very amusing great fun to watch the funny thing is I've just sold a Peugeot 207 myself and it's now back up for sale in Leicester for two grand and I sold it to We Buy Any Car for less than 1000 keep up the good work cheers Phil from Newark
I bought a cheap Peugeot 207CC Sport in 2018, 11,500 miles on the clock. 35,000 miles of trouble free motoring later including driving to the south of Spain and touring around France, as well as trips around the UK, it has proved to be a great buy.
I bought one last year. I think its a brilliant little car. Its fairly cheap to run and holds the road very well. Lots of fun for under £3000.
Should have added that they don't last much beyond 130,000 miles. I bought mine with 62000 on the clock. For summer driving, its just what I needed.
I’m no expert but I think those tyres are circles, not triangles.
"Triangle" as a brand of tyre, not a shape.
@@damilolaakanninothing gets past you.
Probably handles like they are triangular.
Wait until you drive it.....all will be revealed from the comfort of the nearest ditch 😁
@@timhancock6626 while upside down having done a 360 beforehand 😂
It might seem to be nowt to most but I appreciate you showing us your scrap yard and listening to your arrangements for getting rid of the stuff!
It is after all, part of your days work.
Many thanks.
the quiff goes with the car 💅
And dishing the aftermarket junk and tack fitted to the crappy Peugeot Build Quality.
If it was an old range rover it would be brilliant build quality and a what has the imbecile fitted to it?
Don’t forget the pink jumper
I started watching this and thought, at least if the roof jams open you got a skip to clear out that yard...always look on the bright side of life...
You're absolutely hilarious, Matt 😂😂 Love it! It looks like a "just in case I break down" kit in the boot. Foot pump for your tyres, water and some light reading with the Machine Mart catalogue. Always go out prepared
Peugeot diesels are as “alright” as a night out in StHelens! 😱
They're going to pull, no matter how loud they are?
you ABSOLUTELY need to save that Vel Satis.
I am. I like it
@@HighPeakAutosGreat news! It still looks as ugly today as it did at launch, filling the non-existent “Executive Hatchback” segment 👍😂
@@HighPeakAutosMarvellous! I have vivid memories of mine.
Sat in the U.S. at the airport waiting to come home and wondered how to fill my time. I thought an episode to HPA would be entertaining and so it proved to be. Got lots of strange looks from other passengers as I was reduced to tears at various points in your video.
That’s how I found Matt, in an airport departure lounge killing time.
This man isn't scared to live dangerously I like his style my last cheap Peugeot had its engine blow up on me 😂
I smiled all the way through. It's like hearing a joke that you can see the punchline coming but you are laughing anyhow because it is just so good...Nice touch to include the phone call. Love this channel
Great video matt now known as the high peak cemetery yard 😅 look forward to your next video 👍
Matt your doing great with yer life, your bringing us knwoledge and know - how of the second hand car markets works, of its highs and lows on a daily basis.
Thanks!
Couldn't stop laughing when you got more excited about the dumped sofa than the peugeut😂😂😂😂 Mondays aren't so bad after all
I’ve bought the (2012) hatchback version 1.4 95hp in 2018 and never had any problems with it till 3 months ago when the power steering got faulty and stopped working. it’s a pain in the a$$ finding the electric motor part that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. Despite that, the car is phenomenal in therms of cost ownership, reliability and practicality.
Had three Citroens that were garbage (yes, didn’t learn!), but had a low mileage petrol 206cc that was utterly dependable, no mechanical or roof issues, and huge fun whatever the weather.
The 206 and 306 were indeed good cars in general, after that it went downhill.
New camera ? Quality leap is fantastic! 👏🏻👏🏻
I was looking out of the hotel room window at these and thought they do look quite good not a patch on the rcz tho
I always admire your optimism! You need to open a scrap yard museum, of your cast offs! You avoided massively overspending! Best wishes!
Hi Matt
Brings back memories I had a 2012 diesel GT in white with leather . It was 5 years old utterly useless, the roof stopped working 2 hours after purchase, numerous DPF problems, electrics useless, I seemed to spend more on light bulbs than fuel . 😂
Iv got a 207 1.4hdi 5dr hatch and iv had it nearly a year and i cant fault it, great little car 70 odd mpg, love it. Another great video matt keep them coming
You started the year so sensible and here we are again... buying scrapcars and massively overspending... 😂
What owners do to their cars and in a lot of cases it is a testimony to the quality of some brands to stand up to the torture inflicted on them.
Great laugh! Needed cheering up today and you hit that spot 😂😂
Glad you enjoyed
The 'Lion' V6 diesel was Ford designed so not the Frenchys fault. No expense spent on those tyres 😮
The "thing" (the round plastic with the tape around it) you found in the centre console is usually used to hide and store a cache for Geocaching 😊.
Matt “ loved the video “ but you really are the best : you never let it get to you 😮what a star as an old guy you make my dad ‘ps I love cars “ happy days 🙏
Good morning Matt, another great video, some funny comments as well. I have to admit it didn’t sound too good when you started the test drive with all the banging and seat belt alarms. Good shout I think on getting the cars scrapped. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged
The channel that keeps giving - usually big laughs
One of the best episodes yet 😂
You need to carry a
Haz/chem suit with you I think 🤔😁
Brilliant video.. looking forward to the next 👍
A folding roof that WORKS!!! iirespective of manufacturer.
Compstall council offices was a a school I went to, love that someone is honing around the playground in an old car
I purchased mine for £810. 3 yrs on its still giving me many trouble-free miles. Roof works fine, as does everything else. Great fun in the summer and for very little money. People are to hung up on badge snobbery.
That Vel Satis is a rare car now. Look forward to seeing the 'Should you buy...' video
Never seen so much plastic and mould
No one is going to buy it ,let alone steal it .
What a piece of quality
It sold and it's no longer a problem
I'm genuinely impressed by the instant start up and the roof working !!
Great video Matt, love this type of videos on the older cars👍🏻 keep them coming😊
Tat hoarding is a cool hobby Matt. Keep 'em rotating as I'm a kindred spirit. Your descriptions of them are hilarious.
My mate had one of these from new. The ultimate hairdressers car. It was awful to drive, leaked was slow and had horrendous mpg. Oh and the roof electrics were unreliable.
Apart from that it was brilliant
so everything about it was trash
and because its so trash its brilliant
Always get amused by the term hairdressers car from the UK. Many of the UKs best selling cars have somewhat a of the same stigma where Im from. Like the Ford Fiesta, many dudes would consider that a hairdresser car where I'm from. Anything small really.
@@thedandy6765 in this case it was so trash it was trash
I spotted a Vel Satis there. Looking forward to an update. I still have vivid memories of the one I owned.
The 'what am I doing with my life' Moment at about 9:40 had me laughing out loud. Great stuff as usual Matt
I like your logic Matt, you have to be in it to win it ! One minute your in top end territory and the next in bangernomics! Great entertainment 👍😎
Hey Matt, thiink this is the most humorous video ypu've done! still don'runderstand what you've got against Landsail tyres though! they're not bad!
No headache and more room for used things is an excellent outcome!
The crank snapping V-6 diesel in Land Rovers is made by Ford at Dagenham.

The french do make a good car, meanwhile me ownin a reanult since 2017 and spent 5500e in repairs.
Great video as always Matt! .D
Another great video, really enjoy them, keep up the good work
Please do vids on the Freelander 2, Insignia and the Aygo. Life left in them surely. And the courtesy car looks decent.
Actually DREAM CAR, Seriously, Actual DREAM CAR, Make It Two Tone , Black And White And DAAAAAAAMN!
You can hear the famous PSA "Fasten Seat Belt S.V.P." chime. Unlike 90% of the used PSA CC models (or most of all nationalities) you find, the top still works.
An amusing episode Matt, onwards and upwards :)
Time for High Peak Bingo. 'I've massively overspent', 'Seen worse, bought worse'... keep it going.
Hi Matt I really enjoyed your test drive in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang 😁
Great insight into Matt's "Project Car" graveyard 😀 Classic content : just need to spend about twice what it's worth and it'll be a nice car for someone. Wasn't expecting the Marie Kondo ending.
These videos are so good! Love it.
This is the funniest review you've done, absolutely loved it ❤❤❤😂😂
Glad you enjoyed it
Love the content and your sense of humour.
Thoroughly enjoyable .Quite a few lols from me. Keep em coming 👍
Great video HPA, typical french car,build quality 🤣👍👌
In November 2018 I moved to Spain. A local dodgy bloke sold me a 52 plate 206cc for 800 euros. It had done 118000 miles, it has now done 125000 miles. It has been a great local run around. It has developed an issue with the cooling system, so maybe it's day's are over.
I can't help but feel that one day while you're reversing & looking at your latest purchase, you're going back into something! 😲
I had the displeasure of a 207CC back when they weren't very old. The dreaded 1.6 petrol turbo. Thankfully not mine. Still the worst car I've ever driven and catastrophically unreliable. Peugeot couldn't even put the gear lever in the right place - they reused the 206 linkage and it's too far forward. 😂
Great video however - thanks!
Your sarcasm is a joy.
Great video. First thoughts - that yard would make a great dogging venue if it isn't already🤣. I reckon we need a shed of the year competition at some point.
Was surprised the roof still worked. I knew a guy who bought one of these brand new, his roof never opened and closed properly, even the Peugeot dealer didn't have a clue how to fix it. He rejected the car and got a hatchback version instead.
Another nice video Matt. Just out of interest, what did the rotary key you had with the ignition key supposed to fit. I fitted some of those to a 1979 RS 2000 in an attempt to stop the local low life's nicking it. They were quite new then and would have confused some of the neanderthals. I really expected Alexander Fleming to turn up and push you out the way to take samples from the headlining! Amazing that the convertible roof all still worked.
I'm guessing the Handbrake/gear lever lock.
Yeah! I Just helped my parents sell one of these for 3.3k. it was a relatively uneventful car.
What's that hearse in the background? Is Matt getting into the Undertaker business? High Peak Funerals?
It will be a sending off, your relatives will never forget
Le Wood edition. What an amazing gizmo with that 2x4 or whatever it is.. Sorry to see it gone :D
i just did the injectors on my 2013 pug 308 sw 1.6 e-hdi... £900 for 4 new injectors and my cousin fitted and coded them. losing money like crazy on my pug and i will never get it back but it gets me from A to B and hopefully in a few years i can upgrade to something better
LOL Matt! I love that sly look you give in the opening when you are speaking so highly of a great car!!!!! 😂
Hi Matt, you often mention 'headlamp buffing' to revitalise yellowed headlamp lenses, in your videos. I've just bought a vehicle which could benefit from this process. Would you consider uploading a video of this process?
There are plenty of headlight buffing technique videos on UA-cam already.
I am thinking to buy a Peugeot 207cc from Germany . What is your opinion about that ?
That curved steep windscreen pillar is a hazard if you are not careful getting in and out.
Great videos, that green stuff, we call it green moss
Mathew Mathew Mathew, this is not the way things were supposed to be!!! You've got to get back with the business plan Mathew, whatever plan that might be 😊
No headache and an unquestionable talent for stand-up 😂 Always enjoy, thanks Matt 👏
Glad you enjoyed it
Change your scrappie Matt. Those prices are low I got £476 for a car last year, alloy wheel were the deal maker. Admittedly I delivered the car for them but £210 for a vehicle is low.
That diesel engine that snaps is cranks is a Ford product built in Bridgend south Wales.
A lot of other car channels would benefit from ripping the plaster off like you did there Matt, cutting your losses is good for your mental health AND your space issues 👍🏻
