As usual I completely forgot to mention in this video I will be giving this car a proper shakedown for a good week before it goes up for sale.as soon as it’s ready to go I’ll put it out on Instagram 👌👍

[@matthewvenet1082]

I dropped you my number on Instagram 👍

Wearing a Rattarossa T-shirt? Plot thickens! I can see a 512 Boxer engine rebuild happening??? Chris would be all over it like a rash. Great video guys!

[@kenrossaukrsa]

I offered £2000 last week :( gonna lose out and don’t use IG, want it it for long term personal use. Been wanting one for 3 years now

[@garyguest1885]

Great honest channel👍🏻 I’ve asked this question to 2 other channels who have some salvage cars amongst others - and they both ignored me so it here goes again... I have a genuine question If a person buys a CAT write off & insures/declares it as one & then has an accident at some point in the future & wishes to claim Would the insurance company pay out for repairs? Would they write it off (again) if damage was bad ? Or would they just pay out the original scrap value? Would the different CAT categories make a difference in this ? What would happen if the car is stolen ? Maybe you could do a blog on this subject as I’m sure people would be interested I’ve never bought one myself as it all seems too complicated. But for the money they seem great deals Cheers 👍🏻

[@garyguest1885]

@@kenrossaukrsa cheers mate. Still seems very complicated to me to be honest tho

[@fredsmith8897]

Rob it's not just about the money, though I know that's a necessity when running a business. More importantly you are conserving the earth's resources and at the same time educating us who care. Bang on mate. From Chris dad's truck to viva to mk1 golf to the mini. Good on you both. I had a serious injury last year and its a joy to watch you both work at something I'd like to get back to myself.

[@bastogne315]

Well said bruv.

[@fyshfysh]

100% agree. there's absolutely a satisfaction about being able to repair something and get it back into use instead of just disposing of it. these guys always underprice though, i KNEW rob was going to say 1995.... what an absolute bargain for someone.

[@rodhili3946]

Totally agree 👍. I wish you a full and speedy recovery

[@fredsmith8897]

@@rodhili3946 Thanks mate, I appreciate that.

I would comfortably purchase any vehicle from yourselves. 💯

[@Ratarossa]

Thats a bargain !

[@yeshuascutter3170]

I was thinking boys, don't sell yourselves short on the price... If the other cheapest is at £2.6k, yours should be about £2.5k, maybe? It's got all those new parts and what with your time and effort, I'd say that's fair? Plus it's a 12 monther to boot... Great vids as always, always love the details!

[@paulreeves4313]

I think you could stick another £500 on your price and still sell it easily, I doubt that the others that you mentioned on ebay have just had the timing chain and head gasket replaced so those 2 jobs alone would add value in my eyes. I've just had the timing chain replaced on my N18 Cooper S and it cost me almost £900 so I think you could easily get more. I can tell you're not a greedy bloke so fair play to you and good luck with all your future projects, love your KZbin channel 👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻.

[@neilhopkins8673]

When you said it stands you at £1200, I was sure you were gonna ask £2500 for it. Really nice car.

[@Stop..carry-on]

I had 2.5k in my head too

Hose man didn't fill me with confidence.

No he was a bit sarcastic (how much pressure) "a lot". You know it's a lot when you get your fingers caught in it. 😛

[@cypeman8037]

@@ginobragoli1448 It wasn't in any way shape or form sarcasm, unless you use a dictionary written by Paddington Bear. He didn't know and made a flippant comment to cover up his lack of knowledge.

[@owenbell307]

Was it worth it? Course it was Rob. Great content

[@5e34nut]

2450 is a fair price and a link to your KZbin page Any respectable mini fan would snap Ur hand off You've literally renewed the car and elevated to all worries Love the show ☺️
