I bought a Mk3 2011 ford focus 1.6 ti-vct with 112136km back in 2020.. Apart from dinks and dents it was the cleanest with no mechanical issues.. Took it to a mechanic and getting checked out and also service and no faults were picked... Today still driving it, still going strong... In a way the vehicles from Auction houses are not that bad just that you have to do proper research on the auction house and the vehicle you're buying
I've been thinking of buying a car from an auction house this year. I got on the MFC Auction website and registered there. I then got onto tiktok and searched "auction cars", and your video came up which led me to this YT video. Thanks for your tips Mambo. I wanna buy a dope car this year, I hope all will go well. I will follow your tips bro.
Compliments my brother,fast n furious 7 GTi very comfortable car and reliable.Thank you for your wise advices always. More business,work projects and blessings to you for the new year.Mumbo the great,Mumbo the best
im glad that im not the only one that looks at how much a clutch, gearbox and engine would cost before purchasing a used car. People laughed at me. I bought my dream car ST225 and once i saw a new engine would cost R20k i decided i could manage it. The repairs i didn't factor as i wasn't gonna blow the engine at the first ride. Next car im doing homework on is 2013 W203 C200...wish me luck lol
2013 is a w204 If you purchase a w204 My advice through experience is to make sure you purchase the model with the m274 engine instead of the model with the m271cgi engine. And go for a 200 and not a 180. Power delivery is better Performance and fuel consumption is better Maintenance and reliability is cheaper and better. Theres also alot of updates on the model with the m274 engine which you cannot see but definitely feel.
I bought my current car from park village auctions(where they sold Hamilton Ndlovu’s cars) the process was smooth,I haven’t ran into any problems with the car yet🙏🏽
Absolutely great video Bafo, noma usidayisa about the bad roads in KZN 😂 I’m also looking for a GTI when I get it I am definitely hauling it to you for repairs and service 🤞🏾

Watching from Kenya I appreciate your work and efforts towards entertaining your fans as well as educating them with myself included Had a question, What was your Ave.consumption? Thankyou.
In my opinion Someone who brings functionity to the technical specifications of the manufacturer is called Technician then Mechanic is someone who makes it function without considering technical specifications of manufacture
To add on that If technical specifications of timing chain is 100 000 km life span Technician will replace regardless it, regardless if its working or not Mechanic will leave it and fix when broken.
As soon as they destroy or ban the combustion engines via global warming regulations mechanics will be replaced by technicians as everyone will have an electric car but 😂 everyone is getting replaced but not anytime soon they probably call them that because modern cars are also over engineered with tech
Great video brother Mumbo✌❤ next,please do a cost breakdown,cost of filling up the tank,and how many km's you got on one tank,,,I love your Content Grootman 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Great video and thank you for the knowledge. I wanted to ask from your knowledge does changing the piston rings help when it comes to oil consumption if the vehicle is healthy and has been meticulously taken care of and the car in question is my 2015 Audi A3 1.4tfsi sedan it has 244000km and has no leaks whatsoever. I do preventative maintenance on it, every year I do a major service and I recently travelled to MP and back to GP total of 1100km and the car ran perfectly so i was curious what could be the reason for it to need oil top ups(5w-40 fully synthetic) in-between services and I service it every 8000-10000km nothing more, it doesn't show signs of burning oil(blue smoke) so I'm just confused, I'd highly appreciate your advice🙏🏽
No hate Mumbo, just some constructive criticism: You need to work on getting to the point and not talking in word salads 10:40 till about 12:05 is a prime example. When mentioning about the engine you spoke in circles saying the same thing over and over with different words. Much love! Keep up the content
Really enjoying your content, aspiring to get to your level some day. Just got a golf 8, what are your tips to make it last? PS: Please share the Aston Martin trip
Awe Grootman, can you make a plan for me. I want Golf 7 1.4 TSI 🙏. I actually would like to buy it from you because o know you'll fix it first and make sure it runs smoothly.
Mambo, please put your camera perspective in to show the car windshield and dashboard coz we want to feel like we are together on the trip, not like we watching a timelapse of some road administration office showing off roads.
Hi Mumbo. You’re affiliated with Castrol. Please can you and Castrol make an effort to prevent the selling of “fake” Castrol products. I purchased a “fake” bottle of Castrol edge from a reputable store in the country. I then did research and found a Castrol approved distributor in my Province. The two bottles weren’t the same. The video I saw on YT showed real vs “fake”. The approved distributor one was real fortunately.
Is it possible to find a non-runner or an auction e46 m3 preferably with M54 engine and please also if possible tell me about the price range of them. And also how do you feel about owning old cars as a machanic because i have a thing for cars that are 10+ old
Hi mumbo please make a video on the cost break down of how much I cost to repair this car including the amount you would charge to do this kind of rebuild.
Oh shit.. you stay close to me. Can i get you to look at my Golf 7 R? Where's your workshop? For some reason I always thought you were somewhere near the coast. I recently bought a Golf R but I'm uneasy and skeptical about the information provided by the dealership.
Want to see the Aston Martin roadtrip
South African Mat Armstrong(just jokes💯😂) Love your content man shoutout🙏💯
He's getting there
Bro, there’s no joke in that, just when i opened my youtube i wanted to check Mat’s latest video then i saw Mumbo… the content they have is amazing
Who's getting there? One is a professional mechanic, while the other is a hobbyist panel beater and mechanic 🤷🏿♂️ @Chasing_Sunrise_Adventures

Great work Mumbo🙌🏾
Watching from Kenya
I appreciate your work and efforts towards entertaining your fans as well as educating them with myself included
Had a question,
What was your Ave.consumption?
Thankyou.
So a person who works on a old car is called a "Mechanic" and a person who works on the latest cars is called a "Technician"
In my opinion
Someone who brings functionity to the technical specifications of the manufacturer is called Technician then
Mechanic is someone who makes it function without considering technical specifications of manufacture
To add on that
If technical specifications of timing chain is 100 000 km life span
Technician will replace regardless it, regardless if its working or not
Mechanic will leave it and fix when broken.
Super I love it 🫡👌🏼🫡

As soon as they destroy or ban the combustion engines via global warming regulations mechanics will be replaced by technicians as everyone will have an electric car but 😂 everyone is getting replaced but not anytime soon they probably call them that because modern cars are also over engineered with tech

If it's the rings then there will be smoke if not then a leak you can't see yet...good job on taking care of that Audi!❤👍
Common issue with the A3's just do a bit of research
Am I the only one who thinks Mumbo and Dj Euphonik could be siblings?😃
I used burchmores as well their cars are good
Kindly do the same trip again, but start your trip from PTA all the way to Durban... Include all the total costs on the road! 🥂💯...

Where would you get the engine quote like the golf 8 that you fixed for R55000 engine replacement most would charge an arm and leg

How's is auction nation, do you get papers same day after successful vihicle payments
@SiyabongaMpofu-z6y it's good, I've never had an issue with them. Yes you get paperwork same day
Eish bro I wish we had mechanics like you in Capetown, they really bad hey
Where about in KzN you drove to! Loved the landscape?
I took the Mooi river toll plaza off ramp from the n3 then went to Greytown and then Mbulwane
@@Mumborepairs ohh ngyasho ukuthi I know the place ..
Whats your opinion on the reliability of DSG gearboxs
Have you done a video on a auction with the whole process incl purchase process ?
Wonderful video brother, how was the fuel consumption?
Hi Mambo, Is it advisable to bid online or is it better to go bid at the premesis ?
Hie mambo , I need some advice from you .i have a golf 7 GTI and it’s misbehaving .is it okay to get your line for a proper discussion.?
Mumbo please explain the different code numbers of cars at the aution e.g c
ode 01
@Mumbo what did you do with the roof racks ? Are perhaps selling it ?
what about Go bid ? Is it commendable ?
