“Hi is that BMW? I need to order some parts” “Which parts do you need?” “All of them” 😂
-
Love having Chris involved at the end of the video doing the sums too better then shouting across the room 😂
-
Has No one spotted the mileage discrepancy from 15,877 then down to 15,378, its there in Blue and white for all to see!!!
-
Hi Guys. I noticed when you did the walk around that you will probably need an new air filter. Just wanted to let you know in case you missed it!
-
It was running when it crashed, more like it had just taken flight and came down with a bump! With the driver walking away from that it shows how far the safety of cars has come on!
-
For a laugh, I'd like to see Chris go out and buy something like that to see Rob's reaction.
-
The mileage was higher on 09/21 than 12/21 on the carvertical check.
-
The car was in a shocking state almost urecognisable from some angles! I guess its a testament to the construction of BMW's that the owner walked away from this one particularly the speed he was doing! Seems his wallet was more injured though, looks like he paid 26k for it the end of last year, nine months later its worth 2k!! The body is only fit for the crusher although plenty of parts. Would be great to see you guys do a re-shell but imagine the man hours that would take would tie you both up for ages.
-
80mph in to what a planet 🌎.. that was travelling well in access of I would say at least 120mph .. but .. what ever the speed that car was doing saved the guys life that day .. testament to the build quality.. every safety device worked perfectly.. and he walked away .. shows how far safety technology has advanced over the years
-
I was actually waiting for Chris to either lose it big time , or roll around on the floor laughing . Have to say even though that car is proper toast , still well worth watching . Once again great video guys well done ....
-
Walking out of that just shows how good cars are designed and a lot of the safety stuff that complicates them is worth every penny !!
-
Definite breaker, don't waste your time and the effort. And this is why you're doing so well, your honesty and transparency on so many things like the Cat B. 100% its a breaker and no one with half a brain and decency would waste their time repairing that.
-
Most of that will buff out 🤣 Robs line that done, ‘ I noticed it had one good wing mirror on it’ 🤣🤣🤣 brilliant guys, good money to be made on the parts or selling it on 👍🏻
-
Guys I would love to see you transform it to its former glory it would be a great series of videos, com on we know you got the skills and the shell price is very reasonable, give it a go we would love to see it 👍
-
I can see by his face Chris wants to keep this one lol 😂 😂😂🤷🏻♀️
-
A friend of my parents ordered a brand new Peugeot 405 Mi16x4 back in 1990 and spec'd every single optional extra on it. First drive and it was hit by a BMW and rolled. Because the car was so new they re-shelled it and it was nothing but trouble from then on in. I think everyone regretted the re-shelling, I think you will dodge a bullet by not going down that route! Much as it would be fun to watch!
-
Even Arthur Tussik would flinch at that one.
-
I think it's a sensible buy. The engine & gearbox — if undamaged — should be worth £2K and lots of other specialist parts. Is it worthwhile pulling the front out just so you can see if the engine runs?
-
That's a breaker Rob. It should never go back on the road again. Do the right thing and break it for parts.
-
Best response from Chris 👉 I mean it's the worst car that someone has turned up expecting me to repair 🔧 absolutely brilliant 😂😂😂 love this channel - keep up the good work Chris & Rob 👍👍👍
