How long did this job take? 5 days? And also what is the value of the car before and after the work done? Thanks

[@mrjones2009]

Tonight hurry up

[@richhelm21]

That key scratch repair is really good! Well done mate, you should be proud of that!

[@dan_6915]

Not that hard. Fill it with paint, level it with sand paper, and polish it

[@inertboi]

@@dan_6915 don't downplay it dan, the bloke did a great job. It is tricky stuff. Everything is easy until you attempt it.

Speaks volumes of anyone who would not only withhold a blokes pride and joy and also let kids trash it. Good job on the clean up looks great.

[@Hertog_von_Berkshire]

Wife should have been made to lick it clean.

[@jotighe2]

Hey, you never know. What would somebody have to do to you to get you to treat their car like that?

[@Jay-B1750]

I think the E46 has aged so well, such a classy design, had a 320CD & a 325Ci M-Sport, loved them both! You could tell this one was a beauty before it was neglected.

[@donnalouise8268]

I had a e46 320d m sport what a beauty but arch rust was a headache.

[@Tom-pe4iw]

I've still got my 323ci

[@PollittsProjects]

You should be on stage with Penn and Teller, because that scratch repair was the best magic I have ever seen. Outstanding job as always. That car was lucky to have been sorted out by you - looks new.

[@josephgittos3787]

wow the scratch repair was a great job not the easiest thing to do, great to see you back

[@nathanspivey4514]

Like so many others said, that scratch repair was really decent! Massively impressed as I'm sure the owner was.

[@MT-rc3gn]

Incredible work with that key scratch mate.

[@Robmac90]

Fantastic transformation, hope owner does the right thing and bin those ditchfinder landsail tyres!

[@1970boggy]

Absolutely terrible way to treat someone else’s car! Especially someone who’s obviously supported you! Ungrateful, think of your self respect and the children. Car is awesome! Keep it bud Fantastic job! Really happy to watch you turn this one around! I’ve got a 2020 M2 Competition

[@dawidswiercz5469]

Probably you've heard that many times but I love the way you are making videos... No nonsense or crappy talk. Christmas tree definitely just before festive times

[@autoshineblackpool]

Thank you 😊

[@michaelkavanagh4437]

That is brilliant, what a cracking job on that scratch 10 out of 10

[@TastierBackInThe80s]

I pretty much always approve of you BGM during the detail, but I really appreciate the AMSR section. Being autistic, certain sounds can burn me out pretty quick. A handful of seconds with limited sounds is golden. Thank you.

Great work Gary. Very impressive scratch repair. Thank you for sharing.

[@rafaelgarridosalgado99]

Finally!! We missed you mate! Cracking clean!

[@testingandtrackdays8651]

That scratch repair was amazing……you have many skills and great ability. Nicely done.👍

[@Lee11715]

I clicked on this video by accident i wanted to close it as soon as possible but then i heard scottish accent and i watched it all. You got yourself a new subscriber matey. Well done on that BMW. P.S. Christmas tree should not ever be taken down, in my opinion. Cheers

[@ErwinsRTLFormule1herinneringen]

That paint repair... one word: Incredible!!

[@stevenjake]

Wow. You normally do a cracking job mate but this one was on another level. Hope the bloke was suitably impressed! As for the Christmas tree - first week of December but in reality, whatever keeps the misses happy!

[@benwinstanley101]

Fantastic job , great video! Thanks chief

[@Mirage8v]

Love the vid as usual. But really, an M3 with cheap shitty Landsail tyres?! When I see stuff like that it really makes me worried about proper maintenance.

[@SamG-py7ej]

Yeah can put of any buyers if selling the car, wouldn't have those "death gliders" anywhere an M3!

[@jonathanfabian7297]

Maybe the owner likes going sideways, or perhaps the owners now ex wife put them on for him...... Hell have no fury

[@idacrack1662]

Have you tried Landsail tyres?

[@keithpowell1357]

Absolutely a pleasure to watch as always . No rubbish just cracking on with the job. Love it 👍

[@lucianoromero777]

I’m so happy when you finally drop a video 😊

[@RedRWB]

well done, lots of love an passion put into it!

[@daveblack5109]

Great job again, bet the owner was well pleased with this outcome... Also, very nice editing, like the split views and text saying what's going on or being used, and it was nicely paced. Well done to you!

[@autoshineblackpool]

Thank you 😊

[@markfenton6853]

Nice work 👍 Enjoyed the video, first one I've seen of yours

[@jimcabezola3051]

I very much enjoyed your paint correction on that huge scrape! Also...I would never have known that air fresheners could damage interior plastics! Beautiful job!

[@tinaalexander780]

Another amazing job! As late as possible for putting the Christmas tree 🎄 up! Usually the week before Christmas day for me. It's all too early these days and kids get over excited for too long if the decorations go up early. Traditionally the tree goes up on Christmas eve and is only up for the 12 days of Christmas. Hope you and your family have a great one.

[@bourbonthebiscuit]

First weekend in December for us, car transformation is awesome well done 👍

[@miguelm4801]

I would literally commit a crime towards my ex-wife that would incarcerate me for the rest of my life if she refused to give me my M3 and on top of that trashed it

[@YaroslavEasygoing]

Great job mate! Wish we could see the reactions of the car owners who you've done cleaning for

[@flippingcars101]

Iv just bought one this Saturday Iv had over 6 in the past 5 years I started my channel with a M3 too and now Iv bought another one I just can’t get enough of them.. it seems like every time I sell it someone gets one and I’m back to looking for one. I’m lucky to of bought one this weekend and il definitely be keeping it now.

[@mameli0701]

Great to see another upload from the most entertaining KZbin car cleaner 👍🏼

[@charanb6255]

Amazing turnaround!!!

[@DavidSuttoninSpain]

The Christmas tree should go up around the 12th of December, and come down on the 30th of December to welcome in the new year.

[@Piazza1505]

Amazing job! Greetings from Italy

[@paulthompson5416]

Gary That touch up was absolutely amazing bud, day and night comparison! Fantastic as per usual 👍🏼

[@skodakatie7341]

Amazing results, the paint repair is a huge improvement, the damage is almost invisible according to the after shots, I always break out the Christmas tree and decorations in early December❤️

[@doug4bears]

Hey Gary....Top notch job as usual. Wish you were here in the states. Awesome job on that long scratch!!! Cheers!!!!

[@nickcaruso4275]

absolutely amazing transformation

Tremendous video and car. I just picked up an e46 330 vert, going to copy this wash, thanks mate!

[@janeturner9192]

2 small trees are up and house is decorated! Yes it is early this year but with COVID just wanted the cheer in the house! Usually I start the first or second week in Dec! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

[@repairchannel]

Amazing paint correction!

[@brad7r]

Another fantastic video. Wish I got my car sorted by you when I still lived in Scotland.

[@benupde1979]

Love that E46 but I still prefer the E36 myself. Christmas deco goes up the weekend after thanksgiving for us here in the states. Falls on the last weekend of November, just in time for the first advent for my German wife.

[@tinyt6330]

Incredible job as always

[@richyprice9170]

Awesome work on that rear quarter mate, top cleaning job as usual 👌🏻

[@autoshineblackpool]

Thanks 😊

14:36 I don't use an air freshener but my Mrs does. I read the back of the packet the other day: Do not let product touch plastic, glass, carpet, cloth upholstery, leather, metal finished plastics. So basically EVERYTHING IN A CAR! 🤪😆

[@Nick2517]

Awesome job esp on the key mark

Brilliant job buddy. Respect

That scratch repair is amazing, you cant see any sign on camera. And with regards to the Chrismas tree, up on the 12th December, Down 6th of January at the latest.

[@warrantyvoid100]

Thanks for the video! Is the hot water pressure washer a new addition? Never noticed steam before until you were spraying the engine bay.

[@anthonybragg4844]

Great work Garry - nice to hear some of the music from the early days. I used to put the tree up second week of December and my kids always complained! So first week probably ok.

[@MrHubb1]

Great work. Car looks heaps better then it did. I'm putting up my Christmas 🎄 decorations this weekend as it's now December.

Great job as expected

[@JZS171-W]

Amazing job on the scratch Garry! If I had my way the Xmas tree would go up 2 weeks before Xmas day, it will no doubt go up the first weekend of December though. Great job nice to have some content again 👍🏻 wishing you & the family a merry Xmas 🎄 🎁

[@flippingcars101]

Great job mate but you should have disconnected the battery before unplugging the seats because it normally triggers the airbag light on the dash. Got to say a Stunning 🤩 job overall.

[@stutube3546]

Woah. Great job. I have the exact same car in the exact same colour. I just wish you were closer to me, back up the road in Glasgow. Brilliant job.

[@cynthiaenglish2736]

Early December for Christmas decorations. You did a masterful job on this BMW. I’m sure the owner was massively happy and relieved. It’s such a personal invasion when you’ve been the victim of crime. This kind of extensive cleaning and love is critically important to healing the psychological wound. May I ask the rinsing aid you would suggest to put through the foam cannon? First time viewer & new sub.

[@garethpayton8335]

I agree with Amy, get that tree up! Another fantastic job big well done on that scratch!!

[@dring219]

As I was growing up , tree went up usually day after Thanksgiving . Now I am married and 10 years past "Over The Hill" wife and I have no kids and rarely put a tree up now . God Bless and have a safe and happy/merry Christmas and New Year !

[@lannagifts1]

Wow incredible turnaround that buddy. Could I ask what rinse aid you used in the foam lance please, been looking for a decent one for a while. In terms of Xmas trees, first weekend in Dec at the earliest 😂

[@dodge7679]
