    I really enjoy the flipping bangers series. The presenters are watchable and show both the processes in fixing the cars and their mistakes with characteristic good humour,
    The economics are bonkers and for the producers building artificial drama, but I can forgive that as long as they keep making theses series

    A very entertaining and educating program that shows doing up old cars will never make you rich. The reality is they would barely be making sufficient to pay the rent on the premises yet alone a living wage. But so what it's the program makers that are paying the bills including the wages.

    Great video. I used to own a Mk1 Golf in yellow. Clutch cable went at a crossroads and had to push the car to the side of the road. However, a new clutch cable then cost £5 and fitting it by the road took only 5 mins. So easy to fit.

    In Australia VW does not have a good reputation. They do not have after sales support and the repairs are expensive. And yet in my garage is a Skoda Octavia that is 10 years old. NO rust, cars don't rust in Oz like the UK. We don't get snow and no salt on our roads. But the sun hammers the paint. But the Skoda is 100,000klm on the clock since new and I have had to do pistons, rings, bearings and head. Another great video guys. I really do enjoy watching your work, your both honest, professional and without the showy rubbish we get from some videos. I have a question. Where do you get all the sunny days? We spent 4 weeks in the UK and had to stop to photograph blue sky we saw for 30 minutes. And we have just had 30mm of rain in 2 hours. Curse of the Black Jelly Bean!
