    Since I don't know that much about cars, I'd shout "standard" in James May style to that bodykit. Great video once again! I'd prefer if the videos lasted 20-30 minutes though. 😉 That's because I almost missed this video of yours. Only after I heard today my brother-in-law's recently purchased second-hand BMW got damaged due to winter tires not keeping it on the crystal clear icy gravel road in the Finnish country-side (the recovery vehicles have been busy in that piece of road all winter), I remembered to find time to watch this. Those shorter ones would be easier to check out straight after release. ☺️

    BMW methods state any front suspension damage means the steering rack must be replaced, there could be a broken tooth within the gearing inside the rack, it's not the body shop upping the quote, it's due to thatcham and BMW repair methods

      @@Petarghh yes, garage does the repair estimate as per thatcham and manufacturer repair methods and then the estimate is sent to the insurer for approval, more often than not the estimate comes back with repair time reduced, blends for paint taken off, they also want discount on parts as well

      @@SXI1972 I’d agree insurers are keen to write cars off. I’m in the repair industry and feel strongly that cars that are salvaged should only be allowed to be sold for parts. Not put back on the road bodged back together without a glance at methods. UA-cam gives the wrong impression that this is easy to do.

    The control arm bushes are fluid filled. When torquing subframe bolts the suspension should be under load at working height. Torquing them in a relaxed fashion then placing suspension under load will in effect twist and tear the bushes in time, the fluid will leak casing premature failure. The car will also drive like a pile of shite. 👍🏻

    A quality wheel refurb will be much more valuable and striking than that performance kit.Vehicle is more appealing in it's original form and will therefore attract more buyers.If the new owner wants to put the aftermarket,cheapy kit on then that is their choice.Not going to give you £300 more for an aftermarket kit, might have paid the bit extra if it was genuine BMW kit though.

    The problem is not insurance companies or the repair shops. It's society and claim culture.
    The vehicle can be fixed up and running as good as for not a lot, but if that car is in an accident that injured or killed someone then who ever did that repair is going down.. they face all kinds of legal issues from different parties.
    Claims from all sorts of people that were involved in accident sue the life out of everyone involved.
    This is why cars don't get repaired cost effectively and parts always have to be brand new dealer parts.
    The society of people have caused these repair issues.
