    Gary Player, the golfer when someone said that he was lucky said, “the more I practice the luckier I get!”
    I think that’s the difference. Sometimes you have to kiss a lot of frogs to get a Prince.
    Experience counts in your game. And you have a lot of experience.
    Excellent video and great to see you excelling again.

    The ex had a C4 Cactus - to be honest it was a great, under-rated car. Very quirky, very French, like a Tardis & looked like nothing else on the road, handy in a time when most new cars are samey-samey (although I'm not a fan of the colour scheme of this one though 😬). Oh & being the 1.6hdi, it was cheap to run too & never went wrong

    Well that was another win Gents. There may be some luck involved but Chris is right when he says 'years of experience', spot on. Nice of Aden to do this one for free I know you sent him all the information to do a key but still a nice gesture. I have to agree on those side panels they are part of the design I have never liked on these cars but painting them black will make them blend in much better. The only fail I can think of was your brand new secondhand battery but normally they are all right perhaps this one just slipped through the net. Another great video Rob and Chris seeing how a day in the life of SRUK works.

  • @GoodlivinGav
    @GoodlivinGav Місяць тому +3

    I've got one of these at the moment, the petrol not the diesel. It's typical that the first phase of a car looks more radical, then all the later revisions try to make it look more mainstream, but I prefer the original version. I don't think you should change the colour of the side panels, therefore. Thanks again for great, entertaining content.

    I'm sorry but I I despair that we have to rely on computers to make our cars run these days. I have been driving for over 60years and it seems that the days of being able to fix your car yourself are long gone and it's a shame! I'll keep my Morris traveller on the road as long as I can. Rant over. Thanks for sharing and best regards from Ireland

    You and Chris knows the game. Sometimes you'll win - luckely most of the times, but sometimes it goes wrong.
    Well, you have probably checked if the parts could turn your money back (So do I from time to time) and as long as the money comes back it's not that bad, is it?
    I know the feeling: You buy something and don't know if the engine is gold or seest.
    And then it comes to live within a few moments. VICTORY! You can fly the rest of the day.
