    Hi Rob and Chris, what a touch, nice to see it getting sorted properly. Unbelievable it was just left for so long eh. Washing it turned it from looking 150K miles, back to just 5K miles, very satisfying this one, and will be a brilliant purchase for someone. Cheers, Alex .

      You can only assume its an unintended third party only job? Someone get asked to deliver it, says yea I'm insured to drive anything, but forget it's only third party? Because you're right, the insurance would have had that done and dusted?

    What a result ! That's a belter of a van/. Nice to see Chris in the intro~ best Motor Trade double act going. Like youm Rob I wonder why they didnt mend, mind you their loss is your gain. More great content . Looking forward to seeing you mend it, Thanks for the entertainment.

    Out of the 3 French automobile manufacturers, PEUGEOT definitely are the most classy when it comes to making their vehicles.
    I know that Clarkson, Hammond and May were often poking fun at Peugeot but when they did the episode dedicated to the History of Peugeot what Clarkson did say was that when Peugeot decided to put their minds on doing something they tended to do it VERY, VERY WELL.
    I honestly believe that you have got a real bargain with the Peugeot Boxer 2 litres turbo diesel 18-reg.
    I look forward to seeing you continue with it. Get the new driver's side door, new front wing and all the other little bits and pieces seen to.

    Rob , Chris, You literally have scored a new van that is only just needing a MOT. Absolutely blinding deal especially when there is a current shortage on any new/nearly new Vans about at all . Seeing it after that wash show's what a cracking van it is going to be once you and Chris have worked your magic. Good luck on sourcing all the bits you need.

    Great vid guys, I’m on my second company Boxer and they are great. First was a 15 plate and I’ve now got a 68 from new. I’m just about to touch 100k on the 68 plate and it still runs a dream. Gets serviced regularly and I’ve just changed the starter myself. Also you will be surprised what you can fit in the back of these things.

    I've had a set of spring clamps slide round on me under full compression, managed to throw it into my brick shed just before they give in, took a massive chunk out of my shed wall with one hell of a bang. Never take chances with springs people, these will kill you no problems.

    At 9.20 when you were wondering about a trim missing, it's not. I work for a van hire company too and the XLWB have plastic wheelarch extensions and these are just the holes that would house the clips. The XLWB use the same pressing as the LWB which doesn't have them. Hope this helps if someone has not already mentioned it.

    3 First wash.
    All we need now is fitting the bits and crunching the numbers.
    What's the betting you keep this and sell the Berlingo?
    Thanks for another cracking video.

  • @SuperLittleTyke
    @SuperLittleTyke 2 роки тому

    I washed my 7-year-old white Suzuki Alto just before its MOT and a clean car just seems to drive better. Here in Lincolnshire in the winter the rural roads are constantly muddy from the numerous tractors. Your van find video was very interesting. I started my apprenticeship as a motor mechanic in 1961 in Cranbrook and later at Linton just outside Maidstone, so I have worked on countless vehicles during my working life, which included working for Ford in Germany for 10 years. Are you planning on further videos of this van as the work progresses? Great video! How it takes me back 60 years.

  • @timpearson5086
    @timpearson5086 2 роки тому

    Really looking forward to this series. I own its sister, another 2018 Boxer Length 3 Height 2 model in white which I bought new and converted to a camper. It'll be interesting to learn about repairing it via SRUK, probably better than the disappointing workshop manual I bought, which no longer gives much model-specific advice in the way printed ones used to. Check that the replacement front wheel and bumper corner are not for the Length 4 model, which has bigger wheels and extra plastic wheel arch protectors. The wheel arches all contain holes to attach the plastic panels, but only Length 4 models use them.
