YOU GUYS ARE AN INSPIRATION.
I've been a subscriber for several years and never miss a video. I recently bought a nice 09 plate Audi Q5, but within a fortnight I had someone pull out in front of me and my insurance company wrote it off as a cat N.
It was a front passenger side impact, so had sustained damage to the bumper, headlight and wing.
Needless to say, I bought it back and spent a weekend ripping it apart and watching your Audi Q5 series on repeat.......
Armed with part numbers I spent a good few hours on the internet and sourced all the parts, mostly new/second-hand, genuine Audi.
I'm nearly 60 and I've spent most of my life working with machines so I know how to wield a spanner. So with Chris's voice ringing in my ears I took my time getting the shut lines right. Fortunately the bonnet and door were untouched so I had some good datums to work with, but the wing was still on off, on off, on off.... but eventually I was happy. Everything else was plug and play.
The numbers.... I bought it for £4500, which I got back and they even gave me a lovely Merc GLC to play with over Christmas..... I bought it back from the insurance company for £1100, parts £600, paint £420. So an Audi Q5 for £2120!!!
To say i'm a happy bunny would be an understatement. Thank you guys, and I will be buying you a few coffees.
Ian.
Most people would think of all the grief and stress. You've turned a negative into a positive and left with some change in your pocket. Fair play!
Outstanding mate. I did the same when my wife smashed our Mini up. Nice one!
"I'd rather be short than follicley challenged!" This is how i know you two are actual mates! 🤣🤣🤣🤝🏾
Chris cracked me up “ I can retire two years earlier” 😂😂 lovely little car gents, another brilliant video.
The fart noise when Chris got in the car after taking the mick out of Rob was timed to perfection 😂😂😂
Just for general reference Rob if you have BMW that has a FRM and has been in smash then unplug the module/battery during repairs. One of the FRMs jobs is to look after the lights and if there is a short on any of them the FRM will continue to 'test' whether the short is still there. After a number of tries ( I can't remember what it is anymore off the top of my head) the module will 'permanently' disable power to prevent fire. I say permanently as BMW say it can't be reset and you'll have to buy a new module and have it coded etc. In reality there are ways of reenabling the FRM but that takes a bit of Googling.
its been a privilege watching this channel from the ferrari shaky camera days.love how nothing phases these guys and get the job done.❤from Scotland
Don't forget Chris, if you're bald at the front, you're a great lover. If you're bald at the back then you're a great thinker. If you're bald all over then you just think you're a great lover!
😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rob can I just say a big thanks for not going endless Timelapse with music unlike some channels. You get it spot on.
Another phoenix rises from the ashes ! - super job chaps and as always a great video. Liked the bit at the end too Rob, the ‘Top Gear’ talk to camera standing next to your fine work. Keep ‘em coming !
I love those BMWs perfectly sized. Can’t help but notice Chris’s new side gig Chicken and Waffles? Or waffles with eggs? Thanks so much for sharing Gentlemen
Great video as usual. I REALLY love the bit about the folically challenged vs haircuts and retirement!
Sure I could do the dashboard...and have a lot of screws left over and loops of wire sticking out all over the place! Well done as usual. 😊
We need some more motor bikes on the show that would be great from Christian
Front door fault, no door. Brilliant 😄
It sounds like Chris needs that old white van back, with the toilet in the back. 😂😂😅
Rob Chris says about the money he has saved in the Barbers what about all the money he has saved out of all the vehicles he squirrels about in lol
That poor old viva in the background the content just keeps getting better Great to see them flying out the door Rob
The viva is a parts car, Chris has another restored viva
i know im a long time subscriber
😂 Chris saving hair cut money gonna retire before you Rob, think his change collecting will knock off another year 😂 great work yet again, like the rabbit hutch in background❤
It’s a chicken coop 👍
@@sruk oops my bad 🤦♂️ looks beautifully built
Is there no end to Chris's talents ? Has he got a new sideline of rabbit hutch/chicken coop rebuild and restorations?
That dash replacement looked pretty tricky to me Rob! Thanks for another interesting video.
You’re right Rob, I could (probably) do that dash but it would take me 2 weeks 😅
Loved the short and bald joke, also Chris’ comeback was priceless 😂
Great video again fellas 👏 Chris the magician 🎩 strikes again rob you are a past master of the dashboards again how you remember where everything goes back together i will never know. This one is coming along nicely take care and stay lucky and healthy looking forward to Sundays video 📹 as usual 😊❤
The number crunching bit is the cherry on the cake on these videos. I try and work it out all the way through lol keep up the good work boys
Great video guys. It's always brilliant to watch you guys take a car the insurance companies wash their hands of and bring it back to better than new. Just one final comment though, who nicked the wheels off the doll house lol😂. Much respect-Kenny
Lovely motor ready for the summer. Nothing fazes you two, no stressing, no swearing you both just crack on and get it done 💪
It's tidied up nicely, this car. I'm glad there's no hidden nasties behind the panels. Looking forward to seeing this one finished. Top work. 👍
I'd rather be short than folically challenged cracked me up 😂 brilliant guys thank you
You guys should buy a coffee machine. It would save you a packet 😀
"Any of you could change the dashboard "......really! Hands up I would not know where to start. Respect to you both for your knowledge . Another great video. .....like the hen house😂
You probably could to be fair, it looks more intimidating than it really is. I'd never done anything like this before my old BMW got flooded and I wanted to try and salvage it instead of scrapping it. I started with disconnecitng the battery and pulling all the vents out, glove box, radio etc and all the other stuff that's easily removed. I pulled the steering wheel out as well because the dash on the E46s is pretty cumbersome. The hard part isn't really getting it out or keeping track of the number of screws and such, it's getting the bastard to fit back in and that's not so bad if you get someone to give you hand.
Guys, I have a bmw 320d 2009 e90 bought it last year and by far the best motor I have ever owned, love it currently on 165600 miles, mot 4th Jan this year with only a number plate advisory and a upper suspension arm bush advisory, starts right up 1st time everytime and that abs light would most likely be abs rings will throw the abs and tc lights on.
All the best
Tom
If Rob was a surgeon, he’d be saying “anyone can do this, it really is that easy, you could do it on your driveway” as he takes out an appendix. Anything looks easy if you have 20 years experience!
If Rob WERE a surgeon ... tut tut 😉
How much experience do you have with the English language?
Always like your videos and always give them a like. Great content and great honest people doing it. Keep it up!
He couldn't retire without all that loose change inside all the cars
Another brilliant video guys ,love the respectful interaction between you both ,it's refreshing.
Another repair carried out with surgical precision. I totally agree to fit the multi plug prior to fitting.
I fitted a replacement speaker in the door of my car with the connection plug away from the door card. Excellent report in a clear logical sequence.
Brilliantly executed Guys just loved it 👍
I just got off from a 4 day desk duty, Rob you bought me back down to earth, thanks ❤❤ 🍀🍀🇮🇪🇮🇪
Chris keeping chickens? I spy a chicken coop, good for him x
No, that's a convertible.
Hi rob and Chris, great job on the wee BMW can't wait till its finished from marty in Belfast northern Ireland God bless
Good mates can rib each other and no one takes offence, nice looking beamer guys and nice bit of work from you both
Sounded like Chris ripped his jeans getting in!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Loved this one, Rob. Thanks for the video.
Not long discovered your channel. I’m now addicted. Thank you both so much for all the varied content. Love the way you both compliment each other with your different skills. Currently making my way through all your videos. Always a pleasure to watch your extremely interesting content and I’ve always got a smile on my face after watching. Thank you 👍😎
Lovely car, I'm really impressed with the work you've done on this!
Some devious sellers out there😮 but not enough to slow you down 😊
You guys have inspired me and given me the confidence to fix my
Ford focus cc.
Never too old even at 66 to have a go 😊
Rob is the Dash-King.
Are you venturing into property renovations,and is that the first one in the workshop 😂😂😂
Love the banter 🤣🤣 silk purse out of a sows ear comes to mind ! Well done both ! And Rob ' you're qute correct , it does sound sweet . Cheers !
Brilliant Video, Rob and Chris 👍
Fantastic gentlemen as always, thank you.
Lads, where have the terrible jokes gone? Or have you slipped some in without me noticing? Great work as always 👍🏼
Nothing wrong with those jokes...tried a couple out in my local the other week..was meet with groans ,moans and a one or two other comments but went down well.
Heathrow Rob for a used dash, hmmm! not from a long term car park I hope! 😲. Have we got a hatchery now in the workshop? The BMW will be a cracking car when its finished. 👍
Nice WORK GUYS 👍👍👍
After a bad day at work I get to see you guys make every work day a feel good day 🏴👍🏻
Tell us about the chicken coop project, was it in an accident? Was it a hen or rooster driving? I expect eggs come out of the back? Is it a hatchback?😂 Can you get spares from copart. Ha ha the yolks keep coming🎉
Copart don’t sell spares
Hello Rob and Chris,nice work on the BMW,with the spraying to do, it will look alot better.
Never mind the car!, what about that GTS chicken coop!! 😁😁
You're making a great job of that car. Really impressed. Thanks for all your films
have you got chickens in the workshop in the coop 🤣
Nice one lads, can we get some footage of the series 1 at the meet pls Rob 👍👍
That is looking good now with all the new panels on it. You certainly made lemonade out of a lemon and it will be ready for the summer for some lucky buyer. Thanks Rob and Chris for the latest post on this one. BTW I find it difficult to imagine Chris retired , I know it is a long way off yet but he is a real grafter as are you Rob. 👍👍
Looking forward to seeing this one all painted up great work guys🏴👍
One of the best I’ve seen so far! Loved the banter and the trump! Thanks guys - made my day!
Will be lovely little car for summer,well rob you made that dash look easy,and credit to Chris on repairing the bonnet,well done guys great viewing once again
another cracking guys that car is going to look good once it's all done and that will fly out the door once it's up for sale looking forward to seeing what's next on the channel keep them coming 👍👍👍💯💯💯
Great video as always lads it might be work checking but these are renowned for the reluctor ring on the driveshaft cracking causing a abs fault to pop up could be worth a check
Loving all the BMW content lately Rob and Chris 👍🏻👍🏻
❤ Very nice ❤ and reasonably straightforward for a change well done😊
Bring video lads as always and love the way you two joke about each other BRILLIANT ❤😅
Is that a GT Chicken Coop or a Go faster rabbit Run I spotted?😁 Great video guys?👌
Brilliant video lads, and yes Rob it does sound sweet! 😊 had to laugh every time I saw the new chicken coop in the workshop!! 😂😳 looks like Chris’s chickens have requested an upgraded accommodation!!😊
He hasn’t got any yet
@@sruk well, when he does get them I bet there be the best kept chickens in Kent.
It’s a lovely motor a new Arthur Daily hahaha nice motor Rob your a natural born salesman, the car is looking good as always and definitely team work that makes you guys so successful loved the video
That's now going to be a lovely peach when it's finished
Well done guy's looking forward to the next one 👍
I wish that I was still in the UK Rob , I would have had a go at taking that off you 2 , same colour as my 1975 3.0s , they would sit nicely together in my garage
Was just thinking about you guys I was just getting ready to pull up an older video of yours that I haven't seen yet but this video is there 🙂
Lovely car great exterior and interior colour combination, summers ☀️ coming won't take long to shift !!!
Is that a chicken hut I saw there ? taking up farming ! Little bit of ribbing going on there, great! Keep up the good work boys.
Excellent stuff lads and loving the banter
Rob what precautions do you take when working with airbags? Just disconnect the battery is enough to be safe? Always worried about that
Most people seem to say leave the battery disconnected for about thirty minutes then they're safe to remove. I must admit I'm a bit nervous around them too.
A mammoth job you guys make it look so easy two of the best on You Tube
Brilliant video and work as always Rob and Chris! :D
Brilliant video again. Very interesting.
more chickens Chris?😂
Hi Rob. Love you doing those dashboard 😅 Just the thought of Chris retiring is scary 😮 without it actually happening 🙈 Well the summer is coming so what a car to start it off with 👍🏻
Great work guys
Great video , nice car turning out to be , going to look great once finished , good luck guys 👍
Coming along very very nicely lads ,should make a good convertable when summer finally arrives lol
This is going to be a nice little motor for someone once you professionals have finished with it. Just in time for the nice weather coming in too. Good vid again gents. Like the banter as well!
Great video as usual guys. Turned out to be a great car. Look forward to the last video on it.
New with this year's update the 808 is compatible with the battery tester module, great bit of kit they have a bundle sale on with the 808+tester atm too......👍👌👍
That car turned out really nice Rob looking forward seeing the numbers 👌
Very nice turn around guys😊😊😊😊
You should do t-shirts with “Alright Mate” on them lol
That’s really taking shape - I will be watching this very closely when it comes up for sale as I’m very interested - my wife will go ballistic but my kids will love it! I have my fingers crossed I can buy it.
Another great motor, Well done
Lovely job fellas
Rob your making me feel old!
