Rob. You didn't show the rows and rows of unused indicator bulbs 😂

[@sammytheseal2307]

😂 nice one

[@cornishrider]

Best comment yet! 😆

[@smiffy5467]

Golden 😂

[@chrishines6048]

Lol

[@michaelbrown3623]

Brilliant 👏 👏 👏

[@colinwhite5355]

I have a small, one marque, spares business. I look at the rows of certain parts which maybe I sell one or two of a year. The majority destined to gather dust then, ultimately, it’s knives and forks. I reckon when I finally close the doors it’ll take weeks to clear the place - whoever owns this outfit will be there till the end of time. Love listening to this fella - what a decent, honest man.

[@colintx800]

Would be nice to know if they managed to fix it in a future video. Another fantastic video as usual 😁

[@westernmonitor]

I have to say I love visits like this. It reminds me of going to scrap yards with my Dad back in the 1970s when that was how my Dad kept our old cars on the road without spending a fortune. Best of all I was always allowed to collect a badge of one or two cars and still have them. Chris it a big thumbs up from me and a yes to more vids at your varied range of suppliers. Thanks a lot.

[@bullbreeduk4917]

Went there 24/25 years ago with my old E21 3 series to scrap it, they didn't want it as they had to many lol. Your arm would get ripped off now 😂😂, that's a lovely old E23 7 series stacked on top of the other car, nice bit of kit back in the day.

[@iainmcquillan8636]

I enjoyed this My 1st car was 323i ivory white , BMW zenda kit , bbs allows. Thinking was an 78 ish. I bought it in 87. Wish i had kept it 🥲

[@slottaway]

Used them years ago for some M Tec springs for my E36. An amazing place........ they`ve got more BMW parts than BMW themselves and they were reasonably priced as well ! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@martinmurphy4811]

What is the email address for the BMW breakers yard in bridge end I missed it

[@joebrown7994]

Great video Rob. This place will come in handy as I bought the silver E36 M3 shown in your Hobbs Parker Classic Car Auction video a couple of weeks ago.

[@ged3680]

Hello Rob and Chris, great video. As other older viewers have said this brings back memories of us climbing over cars to find bits. Cars stacked on top of each other, no health and safety. Good old days really in a way. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged

[@kevinenlund3004]

Great video Rob! We call them junk (breaker) yards but sometimes I just pay my two dollars and walk around just to look at cars even if I don't need anything. You and Chris keep up the cool content.

[@D4mo2612]

I said about the dpf at the start. We had a volvo in once with similar issues. Changed the dpf and problem solved.

[@danhunt5441]

Thanks Rob for the bm video. Need a rear diff for my 1 series. Will give them a call 👍

[@cornishrider]

Cracking video, what an amazing place! How about it Rob once the RS Turbo is done you do an E30 as clearly you are a fan of them and for so many of us they hold such special memories!

[@SuperMisterInvisible]

I don't normally comment on KZbin, but I thought I'd say, I love your content fellas, and enjoy your videos on my 60inch TV in the lounge after a hard day's grafter. Keep it up guys, doing great.

[@sruk]

Thank you 🙏

[@petrolhead28]

Perfectly timed as I have ripped an undertray of my E39. Good place to start the hunt.

[@trainmanbob]

Hate scrap yards of today. Sure they do a good job, but years ago a trip to the local car breakers, armed with a tin of Sawrfega, a small kit of all the right bits, wading through the mud, oil and brambles, climbing over wrecked motors...those were the days. Great Video Rob. Cheers, Bob

[@johnmontague4245]

Nice job Rob. For any BMW owners it’s a paradise. Another good video.

[@adriantrundle3414]

I know where to go now for replacement parts for my 1992 E36 318IS Coupe. Thanks Rob

[@mcplindgren]

Nice to see such a well organised breakers yard. I love routing through yards to see what bits I can find. I can see why you guys love that place when a BMW is in the workshop 👍🏻

[@neilhopkins8673]

I remember climbing up cars stacked 4 high back in the 90’s, looking for fiesta parts! You’re not allowed to walk round now due to health & safety!!!

[@davidmccready6471]

That brings back memories, four cars high rocking back and forth trying to get a part unbolted with pools of oily mud below you and a angry Alsatian on a chain barking at you!

[@liamegan4303]

Rob that Video was Awsome. They have absolutely everything for a BMW. It's still a shame about that One Series. But I can see where your coming from. At least its gone now. I would love to see if the Guys will get it done. Let us know...Respect Guys. 😜😜

[@craigtrigg4288]

great work guys love watching very interesting video

[@adierob1]

Thanks for the video rob I could spend hours in a place like that just wandering g around happy as Larry. Keep us updated on how they got on with the car.

[@AlexanderSmith21]

From the sounds of what you were saying Rob he's basically a BMW specialist breakers yard and because mini is now changed over to BMW or changed over shape because mini were very sought after for years now he also does the new shape mini too

[@roypowell3450]

Best place Rob for that! Enjoy your weekend..

[@MarcelEling]

Nice how they keep there stuff and sort evrything out.

[@ianevans3619]

Nice video 👍

[@paulwalker427]

top bit of mutual friendship, nice to see you showing their wares

[@Manny8669]

Cracking little video that Rob,I’m slowly working g my way up the video list and will eventually make it to you’re most recent video 😊love the content,both you and Chris are both great lads

[@simoncozensplasticscalemod7871]

I have used them for parts for my e53 x5 4.8is before i sold it very good service nice blokes

[@acorndogs904]

Next month we will be down To -20 8 inch of snow I'll need a trip to Turkey for heat in the bones Thanks for the upload and this weeks content Have a good weekend fellas

[@riccccccardo]

Let’s be honest the supply of crashed wrecked BMWs will never ever end.

[@chrisstyles4630]

Nothing better than a new video from salvage rebuilds UK on your night off 👍

[@yhshah21]

Thanks for this Rob that 6 series and those e30 computers brought back good old memories.

[@tonyfurneaux3399]

Hi Rob, another very interesting vid mate, thank you for taking the time to share your day.

[@BikeGunCarGav]

Rob you’re a legend, I’m in Ashford and after a few bits for my F33, can’t believe this is on my doorstep!

[@robertmorin1454]

Nice to see that project get as far as you can, but then pulling the pin on it when it is the right time to do so! Onto the next project 👍🇨🇦

[@skodakatie7341]

That is one huge supply of BMW parts, a haven for any specialist working on them❤️

[@shackertony]

Very good. Loved salvage yards best one ever was one based near Wendover Raf Halton camp hidden behind the camp fantastic

[@tramlad2]

Little bonus video tonight, excellent sets me up for the weekend. Cheers Rob and Chris, have a great weekend .

[@vlf126]

Brilliant upload mate , Love the part where you showed all the ECUs it reminds me of walking into an old video shop , Best Regards from Dublin Ireland , Thanks for sharing :-)

[@matthewrevell-hough8894]

A nice different video! A treasure trove for anyone with a BMW. Look forward to the next one 🙂

[@Big-Cjl-Chris]

Great video Rob as a die hard BMW fan I love to see this, I'd love to see it all in a proper weather tight warehouse etc even though it does look very well organised.

[@davidhughes1634]

Great video Rob,i used them after seeing you their the last time,they help me out no end & got hold of a wheel for me.

[@jeffshaw4553]

That was bit diffrent wow that’s a well stocked bmw breaker 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@Bin-The-L-Plates]

I’ll share the video to a BMW Enthusiast FB group I follow, I’m sure it’ll be of interest to someone on there. Another great video.

[@peterdelamare]

Fascinating to see, but I have to wonder what the demand for a lot of these parts will be as these age cars are disappearing fast, judging by the dust etc the turnover of some parts are low.

[@benevans3733]

Congratulations on reaching 217,000 subscribers and well done for your hard work as always

[@kevingould6725]

Rob it is cold . But I’m nesh as I live in Australia. We are in late spring so it’s warming up . Looking forward to March 2022 when we come over to UK and do spring / summer .

[@paulmoore6345]

Great seeing a specialist breakers. Some good spares for the older BMWs 👍👍

[@stephenward8707]

Like a kid in a sweet shop .....another great video ...thanks ........

[@andrewsharp4753]

Very interesting Rob.They are (if you can remember)the Mr Rebus of BMW hording lol 👍

[@alextripp1230]

Brilliant analogy.. Alex.

[@cornishrider]

I'm sure it was Mr Trebus, as Rebus is a famous fictional Scottish Detective! 🤣

[@andrewsharp4753]

Yes your right Mr Trebus lol

[@HowardLeVert]

Well, if I ever decide to recommission my E34 I know where to come to replace the rusted panels... brilliant place!

[@General_Confusion]

Chris dreams that somewhere there is a place like that for Viva's.

[@vernonmatthews181]

I could've done that, except it would involve time travel to 1986 for anything HA, HB or GT, certainly not after 96. 😁😄👌👍

[@rowdoc]

“Vivalhalla..” 😬

[@trainmanbob]

There is. Las Vegas. Ask Elvis, he did an advert fot it.lol

[@Naiatelu]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@paultaylor9652]

Less scrupulous car people would fix it and flog it on, good for you Rob selling it for spares, there's many a good parts on it.

[@MINIMOTOMADNESS]

rob i have a thing about bmws,i saved up and bought one of my dream cars in 2001,it was a 730sei auto,everyone warned me about the auto gearbox being a bit dodgy,1yr later every thing else had broke,heater matrix,head gasket then a lekky window fell out when i was xmas shopping,spent 1000"s on it in 1 yr,sad thing was i nearly bought a mk1 lotus cortina for 10k instead,never got on with bmws since,

[@zzhughesd]

Can we please keep updated if they get bottom 1 series, or also throw towel in break

[@JasonSmith-tv2zw]

My old man God rest his soul had a BMW 2002Ti, and when it worked it was great, it just blew a head gasket on every journey, until he eventually got fed up with it

[@rouman7]

Nice video bmw grave yard …there use to be many in the day ..I remember you had to remove the stuff yourself … now most have the parts on the shelf ..I learned the hard way I bought second hand injectors. For a bmw. Lasted 3 days .. bmw told me buy new because once you remove them you need to fit asp and the new ones are packed well expensive thoe.

[@goonermick7786]

Sometimes you need to make the call fellers and in my option this was the right call, would be interesting to see if they can cure it and what the problem is ah if possible?

[@shaunwest3612]

Great video salvage rebuilds, what an amazing place 👌👍😀

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Excellent content once again Rob. ( I actually visited Mark at Kent Auto Salvage and Jerry at Jerry’s car and cycle centre this morning - both were so helpful and I arrived home with a lighter wallet.) Ha ha!

[@robc5955]

Love proper recyclers like this place, best result for the 1 series 👍

[@MainSpaceGIGS]

We need a Scrapheap Challenge reboot with you and chris, set here and the other salvage yards you use. Just rebuilding cars etc!

[@douglewin4705]

Nice video mate, I bet a few BMW owners will be on the phone to them. As for cold, I’m fitting my studded winter tyres the weekend as we are getting 10cm of snow tonight, and I had to scrape the ice off the windscreen this morning. Stay lucky !

[@andrewwilson1118]

Great walk around could spend all day in there👍👍

[@carlwilliams2081]

Yeh think is for the newer shape 3 series compact, blue bonnet looks like first the first generation bmw x5

[@alextripp1230]

Hi Rob, what a place, literally heaven to a BMW fan.. Alex.

[@jasonwaterhouse50]

Great mooch around the yard nice for us to see from our cozy houses cheers

[@RetroRob4]

Used to love going round salvage yards with my dad when I was a kid ,right adventure as you didn't know what cars you would find . All changed now round my way most have closed and the others not allowed round them 😔, that was the best call for your bmw , got to know when to call it a day 👍

[@TheMcooper17]

place i know of that still lets adults walk round and pick parts but some advices, be respectful and not just break stuff to geet the part you need, think of the next guy

[@benevans3733]

Hope you and the family are staying safe and well

[@paulbradford8240]

In the mid 90's I had an E30 316 (1800) 1984. I bought it from a car dealer acquaintance for £600. It never gave me a problem in all of the time I had it. I think the only reason I disposed of it in 1997 was due to the fact a colleague was selling a fiesta she'd had from new and that was a bargain. I wish I'd never got rid of the BMW. The dealer took it back off me for the same money. That doesn't happen often!

[@adamweston4152]

I live in Bridgend south Wales and when I saw the video I thought to myself, where's that then?? Kent😆😆

[@jamesbrett6518]

Leeds Castle is also in Kent, not West Yorkshire!

[@ryanfrench2000]

Rob sad to see the old BMW put to rest but nice video on the BMW SCRAP YARD 👊👊👍

[@1mic3]

I love these sort of videos, because I love having a nosey round breakers myself. It’s nice to look at it all from the warm and comfort of my sofa!😂. I hope they get the Range Rover on the road sometime soon, thanks Rob. 👍👍👍

[@billhutton7766]

Some you win some you loose nice video what an Aladdin’s cave of BMW parts . 👍👍

[@thefloorkiller]

Brilliant video, think that's bigger than Gala Motors, used to love going to the scrappy for bits when I was younger, was always an adventure, could spend ages there, Ebay and ordering parts today makes things easier today but the adventure and the spirit has gone

[@mikeyoakes180]

What a place! I bet only the owner know where everything is! 😂 loved it first time round when you went over! Anyway ill see you both in the next one ☝️

[@ericglass2093]

Great video go to as many scrap / salvage yards as you can .Not a lot the public in know and there i like a good look round for parts. Ps how is the best Vauxhall yard.

[@benevans3733]

Really enjoy your longer videos

[@colinmiles1052]

Real Aladdin's cave! Great video, thanks!

[@andyspencer1010]

Do love a good tidy yard my dad and uncles back in the day was awesome have a good weekend guys 👌👌👌

[@benevans3733]

Yes I am really enjoying this video and would like to see you doing more of them

[@ThunderStorm_Dreams]

Rob, whats the floor covered in? i mean all those nice new parts just lay on the concrete? seems a waste as they'll be damaged??

[@renorti1]

bought off them few times, pretty fair prices and if its no good always another in stock

[@richardhasted4445]

Great video again Rob what an absolute gold mine of a place if he hasn’t got then no one will 👍

[@johnhind3735]

Just keep them coming your video’s are better than the crap on tv 👍🏻

[@christopherriley1187]

Another good video! I have two e46’s so that place is a gold mine

[@nealshopland4249]

Rob, if they can't fix it and end up breaking it, how do they know they are not putting a faulty item on the shelf?

[@richarddinning6901]

Thank you Rob very interesting look around bmw breakers.so far 106 dislikes 👎 are bmw dealers that charge a fortune for these parts.

[@Rick-sl7iw]

Great video I remember as a kid going to mollys breakers is Stroud with my dad that was a old school breakers loved climbing over all the cars lol you’ve just brought back some good old memories for me thanks Rob 👍🏻

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Rick - it should be Strood Kent, not Stroud which is miles away!! I also spent many an hour in Mollys breakers in my youth.

[@Rick-sl7iw]

@@trevorjarvis3021 I’m sorry your right 👍🏻 it’s not to many miles away I use to ride a push bike from Medway to iwade every other Sunday so I don’t believe it’s that far

[@andypeebles2242]

Interesting walk round, Rob. I wouldn't stand too close to the shelves with the wing mirrors on, looks like they could let go at any minute.

[@kenlizzio7096]

Wow, the Alladins cave of Beemer bits !!

[@woodrimcars2324]

Great video as usual. Like the idea of the Range Rover challenge.

[@dannidocherty1284]

Atlantis blue that boot lid

[@andybonney2582]

That looks like a real Aladdin’s cave! I bet if it isn’t in there, it hasn’t been made!

[@jameslaurence4784]

New subscriber here, already loving your channel. Keep up the good work!

[@johngoodall7097]

Another behind the scenes video, quality stuff as usual, thoroughly good one Rob👍👍👍🚘🚘🚘

[@richardjones5255]

I have said it before, but a place like that beats the heck out of lying in a 1960s muddy puddle fighting to extract a part that you need, from a rusty old wreak that will not let go.

[@paulmartin4971]

Hi Rob great video and funny cos am going breakers tomorrow morning to pick up leather interior and bonnet. Can't wait for more st action thanks.
