Matching tailgates…even down to the awful yellow Arnold Clark stickers!

[@alancampbell1008]

Except the Arnold Shark sticker is at sporty low position on the replacement 😂

[@johncoldwell340]

I was thinking at least the new tailgate won't have that sticker🤦‍♂️🤣🤣🤣

[@stevenmoran4060]

And those stickers take all of 3 minutes to remove.

[@geoffpearson7990]

Thanks for changing the music

[@steveegginton535]

Amazing that the Clio was written off for that amount of damage but a good buy for you. Getting the parts in the body colour was a real stroke of luck - interesting that both Clio's had come from the same dealer - Arnold Clark although they are a massive national company. I think its a pity that you no longer give us any idea of costs - what you paid for the car, parts cost and what you hope to sell it for. A lot of the salvage rebuilders do that and its one of the most interesting parts!

About 10 years ago I bought a Fiat Punto for my son that was written off for a dent the size of a 20p piece……….crazy isn’t it?

[@martinnee2176]

Hi phill what a lovely car I can’t believe the insurance wrote that car off

[@georgedaville4662]

Good to see a nice easy one. Wonder why it was written-off with such simple repair? Lucky find on number and tailgate in colour, well done Phil. Treat yourself to a heater from the profit 🍺😎🥶

[@Wsempson71]

Phil the newer renaults don't have a separate service book now it is in with the owner's hand book

[@PaulsRoadshow]

Great video again mate I’m glad you have found a different piece of music for the timelapse :-)

[@anttirytkonen11]

While I don't really know anything about cars, I truly have enjoyed your videos. It must have been some 🇬🇧 motoring show that made the algorithm to suggest your channel two years ago. Keep up the good work! 😊 I would like to see a Toyota at some point. Greetings from ❄️ wintery and 🥶 cold (-19°C) 🇫🇮 Finland

[@JonathanHutson-n3z]

Its a shame you didnt show how you repaired the bend in the body work. More close ups and measurements of the bumper bar would've been great.

[@Robbieminty]

Nice compact video , great job fella

[@charliecoco2115]

Phil, you need to get a 5-8kw garage diesel parking heater like a Vevor one. Only cost around £100 and run on diesel fumes mate. 1 litre of red diesel or heating oil lasts around 2-3 hours.

[@tomjohntig]

About time you had an easy fix Phil and had a bit of luck finding the parts in colour. Have a fantastic Christmas with your family Phil you never know Santa might bring you a shop heater lol. All the best Phil. Tom

[@richietaylor8640]

Great work as always, bonus finding the parts in colour. Get rid of the horrible Arnold Clark dealer.sticker and old air freshener and after a quick wash, she's good.to go!!

[@normanstephens5391]

Hi Phil. Nice easy repair as you said it would be. See you in the next one. 👍👍

[@johnmosley7039]

Fantastic job you need a heater in that unit

[@nigelbryant5932]

Great job Phil, nice easy fix. Take off that ugly yellow sticker 👍👍

[@zaccalliss8051]

Nice quick repair and lucky to find the parts in colour. Really find it hard to see why this car was written off. This car was advertised in Oct 2021 for £13,000 with 18,625 miles. 😄

[@markfoden765]

Hallelujah Phil a car that was an easy fix and hopefully a good profit for you🙂👍

[@renovateandflip2073]

Brilliant mpg cars.. looks brilliant Phil, nice easy fix for you buddy

[@l1sakr1s]

Cracking job well done Phil .

[@robinharrison3907]

NICE JOB BUD 👍👍GREAT TO HAVE A EASY FIX NOW AND AGAIN 👍👍KEEP THE VIDEOS COMING 👍👍

[@HaxnslashROM]

I am curious to where you manage to source these vehicles from? Auction's? Salvage websites? if so which one's? I'm on the look out for a car to fixup and run and i would enjoy also being able to strip the cars down and learn more about internal combustion engines too.

[@MrGMawson2438]

Great quick fix Phil 👌

[@grahamwesterman4876]

Hi Phil where do advertise the car for sale ,?

[@neiltitmus9744]

You need some off cuts of carper or big sheets of cardboard for the floor

[@_Mark_H]

Superb job. How much were the boot and bumper and the overall cost/profit?

[@derekbridges1126]

Hi Mark, Great video and nice looking motor, for future reference, where can I find your cars for sale? Be it EBay or other please do let me know. Have a great Xmas with your family . Derek

[@kev845]

It looks well that phil 🙂🙂🙂

[@terenceoconnor1584]

Where and how do you sell these car as I am sure some of the viewers might want to buy??

[@jake15470]

When will the st200 be for sale?

[@onetech3984]

my ford focus has a three cylinder engine and on long runs shuts down to 2 cylinders!

[@marvinbtn4150]

To change the bootlid is it plug and play?

[@SeriousAboutSalvage]

It is yes

[@marvinbtn4150]

@@SeriousAboutSalvage how do you take the wires out the boot? Where the spoiler is?

[@Beetlefan]

The service history will probably be online Phil, nice car

[@daviddominiak7790]

What a great looking little car and it's looking perfect

[@tristanpage6805]

Great video again. How does that make it to a salvage auction at that age and minimal damage?

[@neiltitmus9744]

The insurers dont even look at them anymore they just take a discription from the owner and presume the worst

[@neiltitmus9744]

Manufactures should do parts in colour for bolt on parts

[@MrGMawson2438]

It's MOT Phil 😁

[@tommyboy2371]

great little car would like to buy for the wife how much will it be

[@steveoutdoors5964]

What camera you currently using? Is it gopro? If so o have some advice on saving battery.

[@chrisvectra5296]

Yay better time lapse music 😮

[@robertbowes1001]

Did you know the service history on Renaults is in the back of the thick manual book.

[@suznet]

Not that great on fuel around town, low 30s for me that’s driving steady in eco mode & the later model (100ps) will get into 50 mpg on motorway at below 70 mph.

[@craigrice1960]

Arnold Clark specials 😂

[@retrogeezer]

As others have said, totally bonkers that cars with such minor damage are being written off these days. It's costing all of us a fortune in increased insurance costs. How can fitting a new rear panel, bumper and tailgate be an uneconomical repair. My Dacia has the same engine, it's a great little thing to drive, very responsive.

[@tashaw9371]

On my 3 cylinder Peugeot the stop start shows as eco so eco button could be the stop start on/off

[@darrenjones9504]

I really don’t understand why that car was written off 🤔 Nice easy fix for you though 😂😂

[@richardpalmer219]

So ironic that both the salvage car and the parts car were sold by Arnold Clark 🙄

[@SeriousAboutSalvage]

Haha yeah I thought that too !

[@cmartin_ok]

Salvage for such little damage? Written off because of Renault's exorbitant spare parts prices?

[@alancampbell1008]

Probably Cat S as the rear would be counted as structural. They wouldn't be allowed to tap it out like Phil did. That insurance repair would be new tailgate, bumper, back panel (which would need spot welds drilled out then new panel welded in) and all associated parts like the bumper mounts then a respray. Not a lot of damage for a private individual to repair but a costly shunt for an insurance company.

[@retrogeezer]

@@alancampbell1008 Back in the 80's and 90's when I worked in a bodyshop we were doing that kind of repair all day, every day. It's bonkers cars are written off for it these days and costing us all a fortune in insurance premiums.

[@MrGMawson2438]

Very nice

[@MrGMawson2438]

New tunes 👍

[@waynelittle5583]

I tell ya what just proves insurance just write everything of if a 3 yr old car is being written of for what is a bumper and tailgate makes ya laugh 🤷🤦

[@vortexdnss]

It's car french

[@resto_roller]

French cars with tin foil body work, bonnets shouldn’t dent from closing them!

[@chrisw3513]

Not just French cars transits and transit custom rear doors buckle if you push then closed on the edges rather than use the handle. Next time you see one look 3/4 way up the door in the middle where the doors meet nearly everyone is buckled

[@martinb2553]

@@chrisw3513 agreed I’ve got a custom and the bodywork is very very thin
