There's a coincidence. I was typing "I bet it's a Birmingham car", just as Chris said it ! Small Heath Special, innit !
Aiden is really good. He came and made me a spare key a few weeks ago. 2nd time using him. Top lad.
My wife has a 500e. I thought it was a bad idea to buy it, but it's the most fun you can have with your trousers on!
As modern cars get more and more complicated it's great to see independent guys like Zee and Haidan developing their extensive knowledge and skills and providing such great value service for their customers compared to many main dealers.
It'll be interesting to see you work on a non-Stellantis EV in the future, given the aggro you had with the 600. I'm impressed that you're taking on EVs and learning from them and about them, because they're not going to go away - you adapt or die and I applaud you for your work. Well done, gentlemen.
Correct, don't ever by a car from Birmingham or Bradford š I got caught out in Bradford and nearly in Birmingham by the incomers... I also bought a Mercedes with a failed low mileage engine (knowingly and cheap) from a dealer... And surprise surprise registered in Birmingham and clearly thrashed and engine not maintained... I suggest checking previous owner names.
The letter c after the lot number on the window sticker means itās a private entry. Worth knowing for anyone who doesnāt know that. It basically means avoid at all costs unless mega cheap.
Never buy a used car from Birmingham, I'm from the West Midlands and it's common knowledge Birmingham has dodgy people selling dodgy cars.
What in the cut and shut world of Birmingham's finest car accident repair centres is THAT!!!!
"It's been doctored" Who tf was the doctor? Harold Shipman?
Just a quick one chaps. With EVās they need a fully charged 12V battery or they flip out. I learned this the hard way with a Renault Zoe. I was on the verge of ordering all manner of parts mine until I put a new 12V battery in it. The reason is that all manner of safety equipment including the brake servo etc rely on a healthy 12V battery. Iād stick a fully charged battery in it and clear the codes again before you open your wallet.
Birmingham, Bradford or Luton.
Good evening Rob and Chris, I think that whatever you buy is good content for your viewers. You and Chris will do the best you can to get the best result you can for your business. Thanks for taking the time to upload another video. Ged.
Its got Birmingham back street garage written all over it, With that said lovely little car and now its in the right hands and will be put back together and done right so will absolutely make a cracking little car for someone when its done. :)
For some reason that Fiat would be referred to as a Bradford car in my part of the UK.
Is there no way you take on a apprentice to learn everything from Chris because that guy got more skills than any other mechanic I've seen
I dodged a bullet out of Sandwich not that long ago - Got caught up and thought āThatās cheapā it just came up as I was waiting for another one - The seller wanted another Ā£800 I did a check on it and boy had it been played with compared to the first time it went through there - I stood my ground praying they didnāt accept my bid - Longest two days of my life š Love the channel guys !
"It's been a motorised valve too long Rob'.... Great line Chris..
Worryingly, people like that might be putting cars back on the road !
