Another top video, only car trader on UA-cam with proper commentary I lobe the fact you give a proper break down of costing and don't hide it as other car trader do! Absloute legend mate 🙌
Learning your lessons, even when you make mistakes always good to learn when just buying a car, 2 days of your videos and already I know more then just reading up on the Internet, thank you so much to take your time to do these videos and fully honest
Great video Lee, checked your website out, I’m a little out the way but really like the way you’ve incorporated your prices and work you offer to book in.
Yes 5w30 C3 (low ash) to be fair its a very common oil now as most cars are low ash but few years back your spot on barry it was special oil option and was a little expensive
Really liked your knowledge of the c4 and rating it to a focus .. I thought it was more than a generous the ,,offer you gave .. that’s all ways a risk at £850 to ,,myself… for a car with that mileage added in ..
Yes but I with cars and opportunity to buy stuff so difficult currently I had to take a chance on this one. All being well it will release some profit, thanks for watching gary 👍
Keep the videos coming lee.makes interesting watching.. can't wait to see how you get on with on with it.we went to we buy any car to sale an old rover £50 was the offer So we spent an hour cleaning it up and sold it to a private buyer for £650😀👍
Enjoy your video's Lee, keep em coming. Car prices are ridiculous atm, wish I could source a half decent car, like you do for the prices you buy at. My Fiesta is coming to the end of its life, won't put anymore money into it, June and the MOT is up, so will be on the hunt. Was thinking auction, but seen the high prices they are going for on one of your January vids, I know they are more expensive in January, but it put me off, also you don't get the benefit of a test drive
Nice wee win over the Corsa 🤣 WBAC, any online offer should expect to be halved in person. Fingers crossed it's just the oil cooler. Any chance of seeing some of the work being done in the workshop? I find the dirty work as interesting as the buying & selling. Good promotion for Just the Ticket too
Thanks NB yes the youth never learn in these 1.2 corsa's, 😁 I am trying to get some more of the workshop content in slowly. I will cover the repairs in the next video, thanks for again NB .
Nice car! I must admit.... Budget tyres and that's the only contact you have with the road. I always spend more on better brands that will bring me home.
Yes I am going to do a video on budget tyres soon, there are some decent budget tyres these days but your right some people buy a tyre at £50 when there is another brand for £59 that will last 50% longer and better grip rating. It annoys me when my customers don't see the benefit and saving.
Seems decent for the price. Hope it’s straightforward to sort. I can imagine WBAC offering pennies! Looking forward to the second part and good luck fella!
We buy any car is only useful if you need rid of a car really quickly for whatever reason. Never ever go to them as a selling option they always give you less for it.
@@techgamer1597 Years ago on UA-cam I seen a video about wbac and this lady's elderly mother took a car there, I want to say it was a fiesta but cant say 100%, it was 2 or 3 years old and was on literally a few thousand miles definitely under 10,000 the car wasn't even run in yet and they gave her something silly like £4,000 for it, they ripped her right off the scumbags
I've just brought citron c4 automatic diesel vtr 2010..apparently year mot.. Got it for 1000..needs a shock on back left.. Gears are all out of sync.. I'm wondering how it past mot ..
the gearbox is not Mot related, as for the shocker the standards for shockers are it must be a serious leak to fail a mot, a worn out shocker that has limited damping could still pass a mot but would be advised if noticed by compertant mot tester
Yes suspect some suspension parts will need replacing but I will get it in the workshop this weekend and see what we can uncover from that leak, thanks for watching Cabottaxi 👍👍👍
Always a good strategy to have a car that you buy at such a low price that you will either make a little profit worse case and a lot of profit if Lady Luck is on your side Great vids
Hmm I’m thinking with the freezing weather and topping it up with straight water this one could be a disaster Lee. Hopefully it’s something and nothing but you’ve certainly taken a leap of faith in this one. 😊
It may well be bad news but its a risk willing to take, I am sure I will get out of it one way or the other if its something more serious, thanks for watching Maz 👍👍
@@carukchannel Thank you for making these videos Lee. As you can tell from the comments they’re educational and entertaining in equal measure. Keep up the good work mate, love your no nonsense down to earth approach.
Yes will get on it next week and cover in part 2, mileage is 132k, looking online anything above £2500 around my end was sub 120k mileage or below so 2300-2400 be about right I think.
@@carukchannel must be cheaper then a peugeut 308 which is similier, just sold mine that done 118k had it up for 2500 but took 2250 and yours is a Vtr plus, mine was just the peugeot e Loving your vids you are killing it you must be doing something right are you using tags etc as my views are nothing compared to yours keep it up 👍👍👍
@@flippingcarsrepairs I do put tags in the videos but dont think they really play much in search these days, most of my watches come from viewers recommended when watching similar content
You needed to offer £550 and walk away, bling is not the thing dealing in used motors. Low, low, low £, walk away every time. It will come right eventually. Good luck pal
Nothing in life scares me quite so much as an old Citroen with high miles, no service history and an owner very keen to sell. It's truly terrifying. Hope it works out for you Lee. I'll say a little prayer for you before bedtime, and I'll keep my fingers crossed too. Suddenly, that statuary 6 months feels like 6 years. Best of luck fella 👍
To be honest if we fix the water leak and it holds temp ok, will use that diesel up to find out 😁then I would not be to worried. The longest claim on CRA I have had was just over 4 months on a bmw 3 series we sold for 1.8k some years ago. The guy had covered 3k in the car and was trying to claim for a leaking radiator which was clearly wear and tare, I dug my shoes in on that one and told him to go politely away and take responsibility for his car, he did not agree but lucky for us the district judge did. 👊
Because it easy. I suspect this citroen would not sell privately (other than spares or repair) and then somebody is going to want to steal it(circa £450) as Lee says it could be anything from a joint on a pipe to a cracked head, a private buyer is going to assume the worse, talk about how expensive it will be to repair and offer peanuts. The seller appeares to just want rid of it ASAP.
Any advice on what to look for when you’re buying your first car Lee? Pass my test yesterday and don’t really know what to look for when buying a used car! Any advice would be appreciated ☺️ (Potential idea for a future video, show clueless idiots like me what to look for in cars 😂)
Hi there loads of angry, to be fair cabottaxi makes a decent shout with a aygo/c1/107 if your looking to spend 3k under but it must be the 998cc engine. If your looking for something newer then a VW up / seat Mia is another good shout. I am going to be doing some top 5 videos soon once my office at home gets decorated, 🤣

Cracking video. A real pleasure to spend 20 minutes in your company!
Good car on the motorway, stereo's are a bit naff sound quality. Great video, hope fully a quick turnaround.
Ye I work at morrisons as the security guard and we have a we buy in our car park in Aberdeen
Love these videos, thanks Lee for putting them together, it’s a fascinating insight.
No probs, I will have update video on this car in the coming week or so
Great video Lee, checked your website out, I’m a little out the way but really like the way you’ve incorporated your prices and work you offer to book in.
Thanks Paul, kind of you to say
Best of luck with this one lee looks a half tidy motor! looking forwards to part two!!
Thanks Alun 👍
Hi Lee always enjoy seeing your videos popping up keep up the great content pal.👍
Thanks Matt,
Excellent video yet again, very good presentation and really useful tips on what to look out for on one of these cars.
Thanks Bud, 👍👍
Looking forward to part 2 and finding out what the problem is 😊
Yes Will get on to that next week, got a few more videos landing the in coming days so busy week ahead, thanks for watching again dave
Always liked the C4 a great comfortable car. The 1.6 needed special oil if I remember from my C3 Picasso. KY reg probably started irs life as a rental
Yes 5w30 C3 (low ash) to be fair its a very common oil now as most cars are low ash but few years back your spot on barry it was special oil option and was a little expensive
@@carukchannel you mean I’m not as daft as I look!
Another great video, I love this sort of real life budget car content we can all afford...
Thanks Piner I have plenty more coming as well,

Lee that Citroen looks a beauty. I’m hoping it’s a water leak . Not head gasket. Roll on part two 😍😍
so am i gary, thanks for watching 👍
looking forward to part 2
Keep the videos coming lee.makes interesting watching.. can't wait to see how you get on with on with it.we went to we buy any car to sale an old rover £50 was the offer
So we spent an hour cleaning it up and sold it to a private buyer for £650😀👍

Nice one..keep up the good works.
Thank you, I will

Hope so, slightly worried about this one
Excellent channel very interesting. What’s your opinion on 63 plate Nissan Juke 1.6 petrol automatic. Thanks.
The 1.6 petrol is a little underpowered but is a perfectly decent enough engine for the juke. Thanks for watching
Seems decent for the price. Hope it’s straightforward to sort. I can imagine WBAC offering pennies! Looking forward to the second part and good luck fella!
Yes I did not find out what she got offered, I would guess £500, so no wonder she ripped my hand off at 850

U so calm. Me shitting self😁. My current car 6 yrs a Citroen bought as a banger. 30k only done back box and front discs and pads. Car drives lovely
Great stuff as normal Lee 👍 All the best mate.
Thanks stevie have a good weekend bud
@@carukchannel And you mate 👌
Cheers for the video 👍👍
Thanks paul
Have exactly the same car on a 64 plate. Decent cars tbh. Great on diesel.
Yes 1.6 engine does give decent mpg and just enough performance
Try online auctions those on person auctions are high priced compared to online auctions like copart
He's had him!! They never learn do they!😆 Brilliant!
Another quality video mate, look forward to part 2 on this car, keep em coming bud.
Will do martyn, are you a proud owner of a Ranger rover sport yet, noticed the vw has disappeared

Doesn't look too deadly. Past mot's throwing up suspension components etc but nothing really bad for mileage.
Yes suspect some suspension parts will need replacing but I will get it in the workshop this weekend and see what we can uncover from that leak, thanks for watching Cabottaxi 👍👍👍
Could you give me the full run down on a 2015 Peugeot 3008 automatic thanks mate

These cars are 6-9k MINIMUM here in Spain!
Brand new?
@@boriscovidscamson2911 Oh no no
Is the automatic transmission reliable?
has it froze and blown the core plug ?
May well of done, will find out next week when we strip it down, hope so to be fair mark worried its something more sinister

We buy any car for peanuts 🥜. Lol
It's not WBAC, it's WSAC!
True
I never understand why people go to wbac its the biggest rip of ever why why why 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Because it easy.

Me watching this video now, and I just spent £5000 on one😭
At least if all else fails you can flog it to WBAC down the road for £500. 😂

Wares part 2 🤔
