One thing with Chris, when he does a repair, its not a bodge, its not a quick fix, its a quality professional repair to factory standard, and all of us would agree on that! 👌.

[@philtucker1224]

Agreed! 👍

[@Jim_M_75]

Does the best work on KZbin. A total pro and takes pride in everything he does, a very rare breed of gentleman in this day and age.

[@JPVolvo]

If I was in the UK I’d buy a car from SRUK any day of the week

[@ewanstewart8011]

I don’t understand how anyone could question Chris and his methods, the man turns out vehicle after vehicle repaired to the highest standard in the industry 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻

[@vespamorelli7090]

“ I say us, but I wasn’t here ! “ 😂😂😂 brilliant Rob !!!

[@jeffdickinson9819]

" Putting a big dent in the project " . Priceless😅

[@itsmephil2255]

I wasn't going to mention it but yeah 😂😂

[@CTFBOYS1993]

Great to have Chris explaining how and why he creates his magic.

[@martinjustice]

Chris, The Man, The Machine, The Legend.

[@tomtodhunter1776]

I forgot about this van. Chris has done an amazing job with the repair. I don't think the scuttle garden will catch on, though. 😂 Top work. 👍

[@martin54123]

Craftsmen working their craft on a Crafter! A bloomin' big van, but will make someone very happy when you sell it. 👍👍👍

[@georgedaville4662]

Great practical advice from Chris on how to cut and trim panels properly so that they fit properly and achieve a full structural weld. It is an absolute pleasure to watch him at work 👍🇬🇧😎

[@Bargos1968]

Chris is a real pro with many skills...so laid back as well!

16:52 watching with sound down and cc captions on: "Chris will get out the dinner troll here". That's very good of you Chris. Whoever buys it will be glad the dinner troll's gone.

[@MercuryCircuit]

Chris love your working practices. You and Rob are a great team. You guys have total respect for each other and want to provide a quality finished product to move on to the buyer. It would be great if everyone had your standards. Keep up the great work guys.

[@johnchincotta1qwdb15]

[@garypreston266]

Great to hear Criss explains his technique Great content

[@karter5351]

Great explanation Chris, I like the way you do that. Rob made me smile "hopefully we can put a big dent in this one", ya really mean "hopefully we can get a big dent out of this one"

[@tiocfaidharlaeringobragh2623]

Yet another great video and good explanation of how chris does his panel cuts nice to see someone repairing things properly instead of doing a budget job 👍👍👍👍

[@kellyeye7224]

I'd be well-chuffed to buy anything you guys have repaired. Your attention to detail is astonishing and a credit to you both/ I hope your usual customers (who ever they are) appreciate the work you do.

[@philbreakspear1027]

Chris explained perfectly why he does things his way, it all makes perfect sence to me…😀

[@davidcoates9123]

Always good to hear Chris give easy to understand explanations of the work he does.

[@Ro32da72]

You could say this is 'just a van' and doesn't really bear standing over too much. Yet Chris gives it same level of care as if it were an expensive car. 'What repair' Rob - exactly. Looks well fellas 👌 🎉 now get it sold!

[@CarAuctionUK]

Wow! What a transformation! That van looked like it was totalled, but you guys brought it back to life. Amazing skills, especially with that tricky panel replacement method!

[@Derrmo]

Lovely van for a camper conversion, loads of room. Great job boys.

[@AI-Records24]

God I hope the retiring rumours aren’t true this is the most professional rebuild channel out there and I watch them all. I do it myself and have done for about 6 years now but I ALWAYS learn things from this channel that I’d never be able to learn otherwise. Top, honest, hardworking and humble guys very deserving of their success and a big inspiration for the next generation, thank you both.

[@sruk]

There is no rumours and not once have we mentioned retiring

[@SabretoothBarnacle]

​@@srukYou did both mention retirement in a jovial manner many many videos ago but not in the manner this person is implying 😊

[@ericpinkney384]

That van would be a perfect candidate for an RV conversion. Great work guys! Cheers from Edmonton Alberta, Canada

[@smokedadowg]

Chris's work is exceptional and nothing ever seems to fase him he just cracks on brilliant vid as per

[@johnelbro127]

The master at work, so good to see. 👍👍👍

[@arthurblundell6128]

Thanks guys - so many people look forward to your stuff - free and better than most of the TV crap !

[@stephenricketts7764]

This one is coming together very nicely and you wouldn't know that it had been repaired even though it was a tricky repair to do. Well done to Chris he did a bit at a time in between other projects but cracked on and got it done. A good clean up next and some final bits to add and it can go out of the yard which as you say will free up a large space. Thanks Rob and Chris for posting this video, all good stuff. 👍👍

[@Shaynecoll1993]

Absolute magic work from Chris as always

Well done Chris brilliant repair on the van,you would never no it's been repaired

[@frankjames7247]

Superb work, as a layman with this sort of work it is so interesting.

[@bigeein]

Hi Rob, steering light issue. It’s a steering angle sensor fault. It can happen when pushing it around the yard without power steering. To reset it. When vehicle is running turn steering wheel lock to lock a few times. Then ignition off and back on. It should clear. Common VW thing. Cheers Ian

[@sruk]

It’s not angel sensor it’s crash data all late vw s cut the pas 👍

[@TheDaf95xf]

WOW 😮 what a fantastic job Rob 😊 Chris is so magical 🧙‍♂️👍🏻

[@deanhawthorn5783]

what a great vid.....what a great motor home that would make.....beautiful job

[@stevekelly5166]

That plastic bumper part at 19mins was definitely there when it arrived in the yard 3 months ago. It was hanging out like the clips had broken. As soon as you pay for the new one and fit it, you'll find it. Great to watch an excellent repair.

[@jimgardner9044]

I had to go back 3 months to see the first vidio because I thought I had missed one. No worries I had seen it but good to refresh. keep up the good work. jim in NZ.

[@lsa8164]

Great job Chris 👍👍

[@whelo1112]

[@davideady7de]

Its a shame everyone doesn't have the same standards as Chris and Rob in rhe car industry keep up the amazing work lads 👍

[@RichieRouge206]

Top job as always guys. It’s mad how many vans are getting stolen simply to strip for parts!

[@Jim_M_75]

Top job as always lads, hopefully you's can still make a nice little profit on this once you replace all the bits lifted for another van. #1 repair channel on KZbin by a country mile, cheers for the content.
