It's so heartwarming to see the respect and politeness between Rob and Chris. It really is!

[@TheGrimSleeper7]

Chris is so laid back. If he doesn't become the new James Bond then there's gonna be riots. Great video 👏👏👏

[@robturner7945]

THE best comment! 👍🏻

Never shaken, just mildly stirred....

[@oldboy1690]

M62 which way we're you going? I know you said you get lost easy!

[@darrenrichmond5299]

Chris done a great job and even a bit of chat which was great. Do a bit more mate. Kind regards everyone, Darren in Great Yarmouth

[@NedNew]

Darren, don't forget you still owe me a fish and chips!

[@bradwhiteuk]

Quality of these videos has really taken a step up recently. More Chris in the videos is great! Keep 'em coming guys 👍

[@tonyroyle4217]

You guys are brilliant 👏 i envy you're friendships and being able to run your own place. Just to top it off your both really decent and honest blokes. To find honest decent dealers nowadays is difficult. Fan for like here. Would love to have a coffee with these 2 and watch chris at work, seriously intelligent man. All the best to you both and your familys. ✌👊.

[@ZL-jr5xp]

Chris taking over camera duties, well done!

[@General_Confusion]

When your trying to put oil in an engine, just make a small hole on the handle to let the air in Rob. Or, spend a tenner and get 20 plastic funnels and leave them laying all over the workshop.

[@jamesbrett6518]

Once on a Channel 4 program, Bernie Fineman was tell8ng everyone his "tip" of rolling a magazine up. Far easier to cut down a drink bottle

[@sruk]

🤦🏻‍♂️🤣

[@mikeberry304]

They dont do mess , tidy guys

[@chriseccles1454]

Short round head screw will reseal ready to use for used oil disposal. We used to mix used oil and proper creosote to protect wooden fences especially new posts at family home.

[@SalimKhan-gk1fh]

Why not just hold the container sideways then it will not ‘glug! As u pour into engine simple!

[@robturner7945]

Rob on another adventure, Chris is a bloody genius and oil glugs when the can is not tipped sideways 😁. Superb as always.

[@martinjustice]

Rob, are you sure the moth didn't come out of your wallet? 😁

[@darrencowley8265]

Hi Robin Chris I know I keep on saying the same thing week in week out but but what a great video again take care both 👍🏻😊

[@sruk]

Thank you we appreciate the comments 👍

[@johnmehaffey9953]

That’s more like it Chris I really like the way you’re beginning to interact with the camera and telling us what you’re doing, just like rob to get you welding again, glad you are charging proper money guys , people shouldn’t forget that you are a business and you’ve got overheads , ie the garage , heating, electricity, etc, enjoyed the vlog guys

[@Michael-m4y]

Nice to see chris doing more on the videos

[@benwaterton805]

Love it when Chris pulls out the little tricks for the door great video.

[@arthurblundell6128]

THese Wolverhampton ones have been so interesting --after they have run out could you find some in Edinburgh to keep us all going !!

[@GSKickel]

Another great video lads. Really enjoying Chris getting more involved in the making of the videos and explaining his techniques as he works his magic.

[@siralfgarnet284]

The way things are going Chris will be taking over from you on the talking side .😁

[@stevedane787]

Nice bit of "gentle persuasion" from Chris to realign the door. Quick flip and a good profit as well Can't be bad.

[@Dave-on3cx]

Yes it's a painful journey to Wolverhampton.! But some of us have to live there. 😊.

[@Dave-on3cx]

@Torero 🤣it's not to bad we are close to the country side with in 5 minutes we there. 😀

[@1mic3]

Am I alone in wanting to see the new gear knob in place ? 😂😂😂 great video as always 👍👍👍

[@leahwells5692]

you can always make a funnel from an old pop bottle when doing an oil change :)

[@danielwatling8172]

Car verticle getting boring now every video think u over done it now mate

[@sruk]

It’s only on new vehicles we buy your welcome to skip it

[@danielwatling8172]

I do skip it to be fair enjoy the rest of the videos learning quite a bit off Chris too lol

[@topbanana39]

Blimey o Riley you forget there are new subscribers to the channel every day so they may of not seen it

[@sammytheseal2307]

The only reason people complain about CarVertical is because they can Do they complain about adverts on the telly? No. They make a lot more money as well. Only thing that needs to be knocked on the head is the constant complaining from various people. There's a fast forward button if it matters. You don't get that on live TV...

[@mikefandango9455]

It supports the channel, just fast forward it! It would take you a tenth of the time it’s taken to type your moan!

[@catcaptain6023]

Washers? That's currency in Wolverhampton!

[@robertwinsper7409]

History repeats itself. My dear departed Dad spannered and drove for a member of the Birmingham speedway team. Every year they would purchase a big car, Zodiac or suchlike "up north" as the team transport, replace the rear bumper with a channel section to carry a bike and away they went . The season finale was always at Wembley where they would sell the season 'bus'. The price differential was usually enough to negate the overall cost for the year.

[@kevoc3268]

Chris:lets see if that works. Everyone else:I know it will because Chris wouldnt do it otherwise 🤣 Cheers for the video.

[@smyth23]

Rob - how many times did you say you were going to fit that gear knob??? I bet Chris ended up doing it lol!!

[@roypowell3450]

Did you change that blasted gear knob? It was mentioned several times. Chris the "van whisper " now....another good video guys enjoy your weekend....

[@koreainsincere]

You two are a bit special. Modest, unassuming but bloody brilliant. This is such good content, we're lucky to have you on here.

[@ged3680]

Hello Chris and Rob, great team effort on these vans. Special thank you to Chris for his continued ‘pieces to camera’ very much appreciated and enjoyed. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged

[@chrishines6048]

Chris done a great job as always. Carry on doing what you do mate

[@anthonymillar6183]

Chris done brill lining up door I’m driving vitos years lovely to get in and out of all day Mercedes strong engine 💪🏻💪🏻 That’s nice profit rob Even though collecting it was a pain 😂 Great video both of you Keep it up 👍 👍

[@chrisbrayne5263]

M62 shut🤔 just as well if you were coming from Wolverhampton , bloody hell Rob you’re not safe to be let out on your own 😂😂

[@sammytheseal2307]

Thanks Chris for the narration, keep it coming pretty please 😉

[@williamdonly7966]

Well done Chris, doing your peice to camera fixing that door. What another awsome buy guys !! Quick turn around, well done for taking the gamble !!

[@jerzywoking1699]

I remember someone on Dragons Den developed an attachment to screw to an oil container to stop the oil from glugging. He was crestfallen when Peter Jones said "just turn the can on its side and it pours perfectly". Exited empty handed.

[@benevans3733]

Well done to chris for getting the lines so good on the drivers door

[@alextripp1230]

Hi Rob and Chris, now this is a tidy van, nice to see you fitted new front tyres. Chris was mustard sorting that front door out so quickly. Nice quick turnaround and enjoyed the video guy's. Cheers, Alex.

[@telfordlive]

Rear tailgate and twin side doors is a great configuration. Tailgate keeps the rain off you.

[@jahangirali88]

Do you count the earnings from the related youtube videos as part of the profit on vehicles or as separate earning?

[@sara-tc_uk9383]

Great video as always guys. Love that Chris is getting more talkative, just needs a t-shirt now that says "I'm learning to waffle" 😁

[@willchet9241]

Props to Chris for making an effort with filming.

[@gavowassy7655]

Cracking video.. Love that Chris is doing his bit to camera... Keep saying it this is what wheeler dealers should be like... You guys need to be on TV

[@stevedane787]

I would say that being on TV is the last thing they want. As things stand,they have total control over the content, whereas being on TV means that you work through a production company, so you have to do as the director or producer wants. Look at the way Wheeler Dealers went down the pan when it got sold to the Americans. Don't change a thing.

[@GRfourfun]

Another great upload lads, really nice van and a tasty profit coming your way. P.s Sure I saw a moth on the M40 hitchhiking the other day 😂😂😂

[@topbanana39]

Thought Chris was water divining lol 😆 when he come out with his door adjuster

[@Drewpeacok1]

I'm wondering if anyone actually sits through the car vertical ad without skipping.

[@detailingshorts885]

I once did lmfao

[@craigb4719]

Once you have seen it once you have seen it about 100 times 🤦‍♂️

[@ctiley2212]

Mileage error looks like a typo, someone hit a 4 instead of the 6.

[@dave-huston-dublin]

Looks like Someone mixed up mls and Km

[@MrAcoustic09]

Love watching this channel it's brilliant yous guys do a great job. See your oil you can get big drums off eBay cheap as chips it's mannol oil

[@alanirving6029]

Emmerdale ? ... No ..... Corrie ? ... No ..... salvage rebuilds ? ... oh yes .

[@sammytheseal2307]

I haven't switched my TV on for 2 months, apart from watching the odd KZbin video on it!! Says something doesn't it 😁

[@AlanCooney]

Nice job Gents!…Larry Grayson says “Ooo!! Shut that Door!”

[@sleepysamk1400]

Wolverhampton moth gone ‘darn sarf ‘ on a hitch hike. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍

[@MrButtonpresser]

I'd be more than happy to buy a used motor from you guys. Honesty and fair pricing all the way.

[@drewbowler]

Would have been good content to see the wheels get sorted, the seats deep cleaned and the ply lining replaced and upped the asking price. Great video as always 👍🏻

[@capt_flapper]

I'd love to see a full motorcycle restoration Rd, RG or RGV250

[@howardlake6178]

I'm such a dimwit I didn't realise the importance of hitting like, not that I didn't like all your previous videos! So, eventually I'll go back and check I've liked all of them! Loved the dog interlude. Dog lovers will like this story i heard at the weekend about a greyhound who was too clever for racing. He could see that if he hopped over the fence a couple of times, he could get to the hare first 😂

[@neilkay159]

Twin side loader doors are really rare on Vito..there usually minibus version. Good van and a good price!

[@johnkaimins9998]

This is an interesting comment, for I have not seen any Vito's here in Australia without twin side doors. Must be a UK thing.

[@memyself7413]

The consideration, tenacity, politeness , thought and really hard work that you two put into your efforts, give everybody listening, and watching, a lot of hope. We all wish that "Rob and Chris" were here to take our cars to........because you (Both) are, without a shadow of a doubt, truthful and honest. We trust and we like you.

[@jimgardner9044]

I think the technical term you are describing is "GLUG GLUG GLUG" but I just call it and air-lock. Special thanks to Chris for taking the time to show us what he was doing with the door. Cheers, Jim in NZ.

[@robertmorin1454]

Good for you for making a decent profit rob and Chris ! As you said you took the chance ! Well done 👍🇨🇦

[@petedig5809]

Rob, don’t ever apologise for making a profit. You are so transparent with the numbers and everyone can see the quality of the work you do. No matter what you make, someone is going to get a great van at a great price, especially in the current difficult market. You both have a living to make and you take the risks.

[@tonyfurneaux3399]

Hi guys, another great vid, have to say, I am pleased you selling it for a better price, ya can come down, ya can't go up lol. I live in Canada, Wolverhampton is round the blooming corner mate lol. Take care...

[@thejackofalltravels8267]

I used the same trick on hinges when I was a Glazer

[@craigburrow8403]

Nice one on this one - Nice to hear Chris join in with the explanation on the door fix - Keep it up lads - I really enjoy watching your channel. Cheers

[@G4RY1159]

Amazes me the nick some vans get in, no stranger around vans and done my fair share of hiring them and would always baffle me when something was broke, you know that thing that would just make you think ......................How the feck did someone break that!

[@flwryvv]

You boys are Mustard at this game! Making it look easy😎

[@sprograt]

Great to see another video. 👍

[@stevet1963]

Nice job guys Chris is really coming out of his shell with his narration and dry humour 👍🏻✌️🙌🙌

[@neilfairless4589]

Tilting the can on it's side lets the air in so helps the oil come out. Old school that Rob.

[@sruk]

I know bud old school is best 👍

[@michaelmcsorley3254]

🐔🍽😂😂😂 Nice bit of money for 2 great guys doing a great honest days work and a Chanel that is getting bigger and better by the day 👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Pete1975]

Bread and butter stuff them quick flips. Great content as usual but is anyone else getting bored of the car vertical checks ?

[@tiguanman1170]

Never mind the train fare, that's a decent profit so Well Done with that! By the way, did the gear knob get fitted? It was going to be done about 40 times.......

[@TheSweetasanut]

What was the problem with the mileage was it a mistake at mot

[@sruk]

Klm to miles

[@mickramo498]

i love vitos

[@jonathanhammond3748]

Quality fix yet again guys. Great to have Chris’ commentary too! Brilliant channel. 👍

[@Lifeinabubble]

Rob i think its time you faced facts you need to be chris's camera man .....lol only joking still think its brill that chris is more involved camera wise .. well done chris

[@TheDaf95xf]

Hi Rob. You on the train is great leaving Chris behind doing his magic 🪄 Nice little profit for your efforts on the Vito 😂 Have a great weekend cheers Stevie 😎

[@diywithreza]

Chris taking over camera duties, well done!

[@maxakarudy]

Rob, I use Mercedes dealers for service parts, they are just as cheap as Euro CP

[@v88krb]

Good to see you making a good return on your work, but 'railway station' please!! Someone is going to get a nice van, hope it serves them well. Great content, thanks again guys.

[@mancavehobbies6213]

We all love Chris......

[@richarddinning6901]

22 dislikes 👎 are car dealers that hate car vertical app. Great content boys. As per.

[@andyparker522]

Love the Chris segments. They really balance out the videos.. keep up the great work guys!!

[@georgeriggs7651]

good all round van make good money

[@richardadriver]

You've certainly struck lucky with these vans, they've al been pretty serviceable and decent looking. A bit of Chris & Rob magic and they are back on the road earning someone a crust.

[@kenlizzio7096]

Did that gear knob ever get fitted ? Threatening to do it all through the video lol. Sure it did !!

[@matthewc.419]

Nice 1 guys ....ty have a niceweekrnd That poor ikkle doggy though !!!! Coped up like that !!!!!!😱😱😭😭😭😭😭 bored out of its brains .........carnt you guys adopt a yard dog ??????? Please !!!!

[@silkroad3210]

Thanks for the vids, Just bought this kind of van, should I idle it for 10 mins before I drive away and I heard warm up the engine helps the engine lasts longer!!!???

[@JPVolvo]

Definitely not, really at the most idle an engine for 20-30 seconds for the oil to get and everywhere

[@stekwack]

Love the van Rob you can't beat a Vito, and will run forever too, making me miss the 2 I had. What a bargain that van was and will be when you put it up for sale.

[@benevans3733]

Hi rob and Chris congratulations on reaching 213,000 subscribers and you will soon be at 214,000 subscribers

[@darrenarnold7361]

Ere we are another poxy van 👎🏻

[@sammytheseal2307]

Unfortunately there aren't enough barn find Sierra Cosworths about to pay the bills so vans will have to do in the mean time

[@lukecowell7516]

That dog needs more space than that it's cruel to be honest

[@williamchisholm5776]

Another great turn around for you guys well done

[@jamiemason9548]

Hi Rob & Chris you both have done well with the van you both done you magic all the best to you & your family

[@RobDavies1972]

Great work lads 👍

[@Bootneck-RMC]

Nice to see you make a wee bit more than a half decent profit this time, you both deserve it. Well done lads. 👌👍😀

[@Banglish123]

I bought a washer pump for my mondeo from GSF. Very good price. But the missus wanted to know who they were when she saw the bank statement. It comes up as German Swedish & French - I think she thought I'd had a cheap massage. Rob can you do a Black Country accent yet you're almost living there these days. Go on let's hear it

[@sonnytaylor6580]

Love how Chris is getting involved 👍🏻 great video guys, keep them coming!

[@ZG0002]

It's like a good wheeler dealers where they actually make some money and the guy doing the buying and selling isn't a absolute bell lol. Considering the content is of mostly run of the mill vehicles it's some how really compelling, I think that's just testament to these two nice chaps does things how they should be done. "You watching that guy again??" "What they fixing this time?" Is often heard from the Mrs. 😀

[@ianclare5721]

Another great video guys. What a pity they never filled the holes from the roof racks with bungs. Nice cheap van for someone.

[@jeffdickinson9819]

Rob adjust the hight on that seat belt in Chris’s car. Its the difference between a bruise or a broken bone in a bump!

[@sammytheseal2307]

Good point. Or dislocated shoulder. Ouch
