In this video I take a huge gamble and purchase an abandoned Land Rover Defender 130 SV special vehicle project that I have not seen and have not mentioned to Chris. This could be a big mistake. As he has owned several 90 and 110 models, I really hope he wants to own a 130 !

Lots and lots of comments saying it was a bargain for a grand. It wasn’t a grand as I said in the video I showed Chris my fingers and said grand. I hope that clears it up 👍
I knew a girl back in the day we called 3 and a half fingers.
Rob to Chris: “do not watch the start of this video”
Chris: “I don’t really watch them anyway”
Classic🤣🤣
Haha brilliant Chris you tell him!
I mean he has to listen to Rob all day 😂
Nearly had us going there - Salvage Rebuilds could have turned into a soap opera - please never fall out - you are an incredible team with complementary abilities. Sell it to a Land Rover club.
They are partners mate no i in team 👍
There not gunna fall out there like bros
Solid friendships last a lifetime through thick or thin, excellent video again chaps. Have a great weekend ❤
Chris will forgive you, who got him his new toy (lawnmower)?? However bad this buy might be Rob, you've always come up trumps in the past with your purchases and surely Chris knows that.
Tell Chris there's 27p in loose change in it and half a tank of diesel, he'll be right as rain
🤣
Hire an apprentice and have them put it back together - it's a Land Rover it's basically lego with an oil leak.
It’s the sort of purchase you make on eBay when you’ve had a few beers. It reminds me of my wife, I’d had 28 blissful years of happiness until I met her on Tinder and we got married.
I think you may under estimate the strength of your friendship/partnership, but it made for a more entertaining video. The rapport and respect between you are a couple of the aspects which makes the channel so enjoyable. Chris'' respect for Rob was very clear when the Lamborghini was purchased and Rob is always complimentary of Chris.
Chris wears the trousers in that relationship.😉
Rob you nearly turned into Mike Brewer 😂. No risk, no reward! Keep going gents 😎
I have a job lot of broken lawn mowers if your interested. I bought them off a bloke called Rodney.
Lol
Plonker
Nothing ventured, nothing gained Rob.... you won't lose on that either. At least you don't need to put 200 miles on it before selling! 👍
I thought you said at the beginning you paid a thousand for it, but then at the end you said 3 thousand 🤷🏼♂️ ?
Spare us the dramatic intro, you know a Landrover will bring you loads of views Rob! 👍😂
It was how it played out 🤷♂️
No mistake there Rob . Your just being your usual self looking for projects and good content for us . If there was no LSE as a long termer than maybe 🤔 …. Still could have been worth storing up though as the value will always rise .
Have to be honest Chris and Rob, you can tell you’ve spent a few days with Matt Armstrong. Please please please just be original, the fake bouncing off each other does not suit the original content you’ve been making.
Did Rob say brand new second hand?
Chris: “I don’t really watch them anyway” ...........class, better things to do, nice one Chris
I’m sure rob said Chris used to watch them all. Maybe thingschanged.
You guys friendship is to strong to fall out have a great weekend guy's 👌👌👌
Sorry guys but that was an expensive jigsaw puzzle..Chris is right you have a lot of stuff outstanding needing finished..anyway the land rover would have been good content 👍 if you didn't have so much stuff in the background..anyway time to move on, you wouldn't put spilt milk back in the bottle?? Would you lol..🤔🍻🍻👍 I also think land rovers are way over priced, unless you get a free rolex 🤣🤣
From Chris's comments perhaps he's thinking of his retirement project, that's a good project though and being a 130 a rare beast , I bet you signed a relief when Chris gave you the ok.
By the skin of your teeth you got out of that one Rob 😂🤣 wtf were you thinking? 😂😂 Promise now, no more projects till you finish whats on your plate. Great bit of craic lads, have a great weekend. Regards from Galway 👍😉🍻💚 💙💛
I can see you are too gooder
friends and mates to fall out
properly and you have to think
of us subscribers anyway what
would we do?!!
Have a good weekend.
I hope you do put videos out
on a Sunday, I'm a sad git with
not much if anything to do on a
Sunday evening:)
Everyone in the landrover club trying to download Instagram right now 😆
Already had a few messages from them 😂👍
"i dont really watch them anyway" 😁
You guys can’t fall out!! What will we do? All the fun will have gone from our Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and odd Sundays!
Your friendship is stronger than a good, or bad deal, $# it happens in business, Chris knows that ya can't win every time, and let's face it, you both do great at what you do. Good luck to you both as always guy's. Take care.
That was close!! Rob, long projects dont suit the channel. Quick flips, short repairs are what makes this channel work. Chris will divorce you if you do something like that again 🤣🤣.
To be honest Rob I thought that you were going to be in the dog house when you approached Chris but thankfully your friendship with Chris is safe....for now
Every opportunity is worth taking a punt on, you should have asked for £4,000 in fairness to you, your time and skills and priceless, thanks for the video it was a great distraction 👍🇮🇪❤️
Glad Chris took it so well.
You’re probably best out of that one time wise.
You can pick up 130 ex utility Quadtech 4 bodies fairly cheaply (between £500 - £1200) that will go straight on to that lovely galvanised chassis for a basic camper project. With the spec of the chassis, engine and other rebuilt items, even a basic camper project that needs fitting out could fetch £10k plus.
Fitting a quadtech body would be less time consuming than building up the rear body. It'll drop straight on. No need to paint it - the new owner will have a blank canvas to paint it any colour they desire and fit it out to their individual needs.
Brilliant idea! Folks pay silly money for campers
Rob, i was expecting Edd China to guest appear at 1 point mate. Some you don't win but you never lose.
That will actualy be cool
Stop the theatricales lads!! You will never fall out as your a cracking team!!!
Don’t think you’ll find much cash in this one Chris👍👍
Great video lads👍
I must admit you did look a little worried rob 😉🤣
Keep up the great work lads and I’ll look forward to the next one !
I think Chris really love you buddy
what a build-up pure drama queen
Excellent video, hilarious, you two are a smashing couple of fellas. Keep it up 😉
That will be snapped up Rob. Huge Landy groups out there would love to have that. Just a few weekends work for the enthusiasts.
I’m no body language expert but…… 7:31 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 😂😂
Yeah. Step back and fold arms 😄 I think he heard enough at that point.
Never fall out, I couldn’t get through the week without your Monday, Wednesday and Friday videos! Land Rovers are going for crazy prices, and so you will be absolutely fine
For a minute there i half thought Chris was gonna dig a hole in the field and then put Robs boots on the wall as a trophy lol
In timelapse.
Chris would never go off on one, get real it’s just not him. 😄
Here's the thing, Chris could easily have his own channel, Rob could easily have his own channel.
BUT..Neither would work as well as the combo together! So Rob don't push your luck!!!
I compliment you Rob on taking it on the chin. And fair play to Chris not to lose his rag.
I was concerned to start with as after the Car Vertical video I though wow Chris is really comfortable now with being on the videos! The wheels are also right they are Tornado Alloys I had them new on my 1998 S 90 300 Tdi
Put it in a container and ship it over to Tavarish.
PS - unfortunately much as we’d all like to see this project, you have a business to run and from a cash flow perspective this would be a black hole sucking the air out of the room
Not a mistake at that money but usually couples consult each other before buying things lol
Rob it's only going up in Value even if you just get it running it will double your investment and being a 130 the uses are endless glad to see Chris isn't too upset 😉
That landy brings back memories of when I served my time in the 80s in a workshop where we worked on Land Rovers in Northern Ireland (if you know what that means)
Certainly do. Good man yourself.
“Don’t watch the start of the video Chris”…..”I don’t really watch them anyway” Lol 😂😂😂 Thug Life…did make me laugh this one, more drama than Dallas.
Thought when it turned up at least it was a Landie and that should have softened the blow a bit -- seems like bit of a bargain.....hopefully not too long term !
shame your not going to be bolting the 130 back together, would have been interesting to watch especially when Chris used to be a landrover guy.
Ship it to Mike at Britannica Restorations, he needs another Land Rover in his yard !!!!!!!!!
Win some , lose sum and just occasionally scrape by on a wing and a prayer …long as you win more than you lose it’s all good ..👍👍
I would actually love to see the rebuilt of this one
It’s not going to happen bud 👍
@@sruk
Yes, Chris made it really really clear....ahaha I'm sure you could have made a huge profit....but maybe this car is not exciting to Chris anymore
That's a perfect base for an expedition camper, but I do have to agree with Chris - you do need to get some of the other projects out of the door first.
Shame they decided against this i am sure they would have done a fantastic job.
Anyone else fed up of annoying emails after purchasing car vertical services
Also don't know if its connected but had a recent new spate of spam emails
I hope they are not selling your details to a third party
Can you find out Rob?
There is a box to tick to not get any updates. They would never share any date there gdpr laws are the same as ours 👍
Loved to see Chris's reaction; he's a sad loss to the Diplomatic Corp. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought he'd send Rob to bed without his dinner, or give him lines and a detention.
Stay Safe everyone.
Lads your in danger of becoming Wheeler dealers here.
Poor old Chris - blooming toothache and a pain in the ar** or neck called Rob turning up with loads of old LandRover bits!! Ha ha 🤣😂🙏 Great video guys, most enjoyable and to be fair Rob you were genuinely worried there. Sensible to sell on.
Rob you have dodged a bullet. Good job Chris had his tooth fixed and is an easy going guy. I think you need to buy him another Starbucks and a sticky bun. Have a good weekend lads 👍
Oops, close one there Rob, hope your able to salvage your costs back, with Chris’s experience of Landies sounds like you should be okay 😂😂👍👍
Funniest start to a video in a long time🙈🤣I think even if Chris wasn't impressed he'd be professional about it but I do find it odd that you don't buy the cars jointly as Chris would surely have a massive input with his knowledge but if its how you do it then all good,I'm sure you will get your money back by the sounds of it,cheers guys👍
Defenders are gold dust in almost any condition, and they are one of the very few cars that you can bolt value to.
Not to worry we all have these days . what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Great content as always .
Parking up for the next 5 years lol
Hi Guys. I love the channel and enjoy the content but I would like to add some constructive criticism Could you please look into improving the audio. Many times we can't hear Chris because he is too far from your mic. The videos would be so much better if I didn't have to constantly turn the volume up and down just to hear you both. Now crack on!!
Nice one,guys!I think you'll find that vehicle a good home.I'm glad you didn't fall out over it ... I would have been a bit depressed about that.Cheers1
Naughty Rob 😂 good that Chris is such an understanding guy and atleast you can break even on it and got a video out of it too so still a win 👍
That will sale in auction for 3500 easy maybe more
I wonder if it's an exMOD Rapier missile support vehicle. From what I've seen on internet they are US compliant so it's exportable.
This would make a great camper van get a military ambulance body on the back and there's some serious money to be made especially with having a 300 tdi. This would be a great rebuild. 👍
There is a company that sells an electric conversion kit for Defenders, Tesla motors etc. 0-60 in 3.5 seconds apparently. That chasis looks nice. Sure you want to move it on.?
Your channel (Show?) has taken on most of the qualities programs like "The Garage" with Jock in Marbella or Wheeler Dealers with Edd China, Its no longer just a car repair channel it now has character and a good bit of entertainment. Chris the quiet chap who likes to go off and do a bit of farming between car rebuild projects never loses his temper or swears. The program could be transferred to main stream TV.
Rob...Chris is a good lad.. You two are cool banana's.. Rob you said you paid £1000 @8. minutes into the video, then you stated you paid £3000 ?????
Sorry Rob but it did make me laugh watching you at the beginning 😍. I was watching it with headphones on in bed and got In trouble for waking the wife up 🤣
Loved it!
“Park it up where it’s gonna sit the next 5 years” - I love it !!!!
300tdi is the last of the non ecu defenders. A lot of people will want that over a td5 👍
Rob genuinely seemed very nervous of Chris's response. Selling on was the right thing to do for you guys, you need to make a living and long projects like this isn't the way to do that
if i were you rob, i would consult chris on every purchase from now on, that was a bit close for comfort i reckon, he put a brave face on, but not best pleased the way i saw it.
your saving grace is that it is a 130 model, always wanted for special builds, so financially you have dragged yourself out of the doo-doo keep up the good work, + be nice to chris...
He was fine bud honestly 👍
I enjoy all your vids and watch the whole vid, some peoples comments make no sense and clearly are not watching it all and I don’t understand why people put negative comments on it really winds me up, they think there really something behind a screen, keep all the vids coming 👍
Didn’t realise it arrived vinyl wrapped !!
Contact Tim Fry Land Rover Cheltenham Gloucestershire, they will buy and collect 🤔
I would have thought you would put it up for £4k . At least get a days pay out of it
Haha. Rob was genuinely nervous hhaha and me too. Glad all went smoothly. Have a nice weekend guys. And Chris glad you tooth is ok
"after I paid I thought have I made a boo boo" 😂 so hilariously relatable when it comes to buying a car 😳😳😂
Hello Rob and Chris, what a great video, it was like an episode of a TV show at the start.
When Chris smiled the next day I think everyone knew it was going to be fine, even though you had the fast getaway car😂.
The top team have done it again!!
Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged
I like that you don’t always get it right - makes it real.
Please don't Start doing that UA-cam drama BS. We watch these videos for the cars and how likeable you two are.
?
I turned up in the Lamborghini for a quick getaway 😂😂😂
Every experience is an experience and becomes a part of lifes rich tapestry!
You guys are absolutely solid. ‘I don’t watch the videos anyway’ ‘oh cheers’
Joke or not, it’s a money pit
Funny! Rob actually walking backwards as Chris approached for his coffee 😂. Shame you can’t do this one but I do understand. Have a great weekend U2.
Definitely had me worried at the beginning of the video Rob. I think the bribe with the coffee did the trick😂😂 I think it will be a great project for someone and I think you will definitely get your money back. A great video, as usual, Looking forward to seeing the next surprise you have for Chris 🤞🤞
It's just one of those things Rob but you'll definitely not lose any coin on a Landy.
You'll never fall out with Chris as you've both been in the game to long to even be bothered about projects like that. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose a bit.
Advertise it in the back of the landy mags they'd be all over it.
