I know, the wear on those seat bolsters. And the idiot uses a jet washer! A damp cloth and leather cleaner!!! That was what he should have used, then leather filler and a re dye on the damage. To dry them out would take ages with a heat gun or left in a warm room. And as for taking alloys off and putting crappy steel wheels with a repaint. I was thinking they were going to put retro chrome centre dish hub caps on or something. But no, just crappy mismatched bolts / nuts! Not even a centre wheel cap or bolt covers either....

Cant stand steel wheels. They rust and always look cheap and nasty. There is a reason alloy wheels become popular, then more or less standard on every car other than the most basic bottom end shed models. But you are right, they need a dish hub cap, that is what I thought they would do, a nice vintage style chrome dished hub cap. But no. Nothing! Not even a small centre cap either. Just a hole and exposed hub, and some naff looking bolts / nuts. First thing I would do is put decent alloys on it. You can get vintage style ones, aftermarket ones anything you like. And it would look better than the job they did there....
@skylined5534
@skylined5534 Жыл бұрын
​@@Simon-xc5oy Because alloys don't corrode, right? They're also often HEAVIER than steel wheels, generally aren't as strong and in the case of these wheels they look good. End of.
@Simon-xc5oy
@Simon-xc5oy Жыл бұрын
If you say so. Its all a matter of taste. Yes, alloys can go tatty. But they dont rust like steel wheels do and the rust weakens the wheel. As well as looking hideous. Most steel wheels are covered by a plastic wheel trim that makes them look like alloys! Lastly you dont get steel wheels on high end sports cars like Ferraris etc, as they would look ridiculous. Yes these wheels on the mini look ok painted. But they need a chrome hub cap to complete the look. Its strange they never bothered.

I purchased a Mini Cooper, also for £600, just after the first covid lockdown. Really fun to drive. Last summer the radiator sprung a leak & I decided to use KZbin as a guide to replace it. Appart from some stubborn bolts & screws (always one!) it was a fairly easy job & saved me money. Now the MOT is due &, providing it passes, I'm planning on doing a full service, including new break pads & tyres + new exhaust (which is shedding insulation) & fix some other issues. I might replace the thermostat & water pump while I'm at it, as it's an old car & they're bound to go at some point. This video has inspired me to have a go & see how long I can keep the old girl on the road.

I liked the changes, but not sure about the wheels. If they were in an old style mini then maybe. The door mirrors might have been nicer matching the wheel color.

Leaving the engine to reach boiling point is not the brightest. Probably blown and or weakened the head gasket. Also, when breading air out of cooling system you should have the engine running.

Generally enjoy your videos . On several I’ve watched, this one included , you enthusiastically tell the owner the vehicle is a lot better than you thought , you love the color , you love the car etc . This does not seem like a wise move when looking to purchase ?
@CB-xr1eg
@CB-xr1eg Жыл бұрын
No it's not a wise move. Never sound too enthusiastic and any fault you find, even if it's minimal, point it out, and make sure the seller knows you are aware of it. It will give you a bit of bargaining power.

The old 'look disappointed, not very keen' routine is so laboured and such over-basic psychology that people rarely fall for it. With private sellers, often looking really keen but saying that your budget simply can't run to what they're asking will result in the seller warming to you, and letting you buy for a very good price thinking that the item is going to a loving home etc.

@@OldGreyMulletTest This is more about going the other way and making the owner feel they really have something worth more than they are asking, I always highlight the reasons why I like the car and then move to the negatives to justify any offer and usually identify the costs to rectify. Don't think I have ever had someone say "if you are going to look after it?" tends to be "fed up of constant no shows and East Europeans with no intention of buying".
