[@sruk]

three hours just to edit a one second clip out of the video but we got there in the end sorry it’s so late

[@Jimmythefish577]

salvage rebuilds uk don’t apologize, we didn’t think we were getting to see it at all, so a short wait ain’t too much to worry about!

[@sruk]

Jim Wilson thank you for your patience 👍

[@Jimmythefish577]

salvage rebuilds uk I’m actually watching your channel out here in Saskatchewan Canada, you’re 7 hours ahead of me, so you’ve got a bit of a cushion time wise lol

[@Sytopia]

Hi rob did you manage to see Paul's video on ASM? He mentioned about copart fees increase aswell

[@Sua7ez]

where do you sell your cars?

[@lennypickle]

Thanks for fighting your way to get this posted! This is the only channel that I have the bell notifications. Love the content mate!

[@sruk]

Lenny Pickle thank you Lenny and thank you for the patience 👍

[@kokooxick]

You're an absolute role-model! I am always happy when I see your fresh upload. Keep it up :)

[@deanwood2332]

[@pauljohnson1431]

A honest mechanic very clever he has shown me what to do with my vauxwagon golf thanks rob

[@rolyskilton4845]

Rob enjoyed that definitely learnt something from that. The mini will be interesting

[@heumanicAAA]

♥️Your videos 💯%.. I will be recommending and sharing your videos.. Thank you so so much. please keep them coming.. 👌💪👍..

[@claywalker9064]

Hi Rob - I like your way of thinking - You show great business sense and thanks for sharing it with us. The mini looks a great little car and you bought it for a good price - Also it is very handy you having your recovery truck - I know "Cars for Paul" always says how much the delivery charges are. Please keep the videos coming they are brilliant. Kind regards Clay.

[@sruk]

Clay Walker delivery from copart to me is about £47 but then you don’t get charge a load fee so it works out about £33 so I could survive without the truck 👍

[@charlesroberts5637]

You talk how you like Rob, if you came up north where I live you'd rip us to bits. Keep up the good work, love your videos

[@christopherstewart1861]

Great advice Rob! You talk common sense which is refreshing! You make it all look so easy!

[@richardnorth5994]

A good insight into the margins and workings of it all , thanks.

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hi Rob, great video,nice to see you won a car at the end,little tidy Mini,you do more videos like this to watch when you are bidding shows what's involved.

[@sinemetu9037]

I love the raw content... no messing around. Pure and simple...keep the good work, we love it! And you know what those haters can go and do...!

[@grindlayg]

Dude thoroughly enjoyed your content. So much so I’m collecting my first car from Copart Whitburn tomorrow. Thanks for all you help

[@marknewman6037]

Rob, bloody brilliant mate, thankyou for the efforts in making these videos, very entertaining,

[@alancobbin1310]

Spot on as a trader and good advise for someone who wants to start flipping motors,Mini Diesels is another good example,good video fella 👍

[@julianowens4071]

A blast from the past- great video

[@isafaricom9876]

Very educational video thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@Challenger540i]

No worries about filming a bit of your kitchen - it's gorgeous, love the extractor! Agreed the Mini was well over. LOVED this vid, thank you

[@pauljohnson4871]

Very interesting watch rob. It shows very much that you need to know the market keep posting rob Ver interesting

[@marknicholls4133]

Thanks for this vlog Rob. I really enjoy your stuff, keep up the good work. Going in for the kill on Friday. Fingers crossed, I get the car I want.

[@robertwillis9988]

Well done on the mini rob. Cant wait to see how you turn it around👍

[@themizzinglink187]

thanks for there's vids m8 very helpful for beginners doing live bidding

[@GRIBBO-77]

Just got the Mrs a Smart FourTwo as a runaround in the UK, reckon I might give it a go with one of them when I move back. The ones we looked at,, around the £1500 to £1800 mark, didn't seem to hang around on the market for too long. Not sure if you remember, or even knew of, the Erith Trade Centre years back, but his business model seemed to be to buy the motors from Belmont Auctions in Charlton and just stick em up for a couple of hundred quid more than he paid, without even cleaning em. We all used to get our motors from him. Cheers for another great video mate, really do enjoy them

[@craig84downunder]

You took a chance on the range rover and turned out no problems, I aways take risks also some you win(most) and some you lose but always learn something new, keep going!

[@Bootneck-RMC]

A really good informative video Rob, and I'm really happy that you are looking really comfortable talking on camera now, compared to how it was when you first started the channel. This is the reason you are getting more subscribers than a lot of the other channels that started before you. Keep up the good work and I'm looking forward to the next one.

[@sruk]

Bootneck cheers as always mate 👍

[@PopsMotorcycles]

Another great video mate looks a nice little mini. I just won a car from copart sandtoft 2011 corsa 1.0 cat n 39968 miles with just very light front bumper and drivers wing car only passed it's mot on oct 04 paid £1,265 including fees. Keep up the good work.

[@keithknight9614]

Looking forward to seeing how this turns out . Very informative video especially to someone thinking of doing this. Not me no patience lol.

[@thomasweatherford5125]

COOL CONTENT ROB!!! Your rationale for buying/not buying makes perfect sense.

[@nigelflack2716]

I love these videos... And what a nice bloke.

[@Mark1971-1]

Fantastic video rob very useful for me as someone who is seriously thinking of doing something like this myself thank you very much 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@dominican11ful]

Great Video mate !!! This is the only channel Which I watch the full adverts 😂 nice unselfish man good job 👍🏽

[@paulfaulkner1124]

Hi it's Paul and if I was not in a wheelchair I would be doing what you do 👍👍👍

[@ltyoshii3141]

I'm so glad you won that mini I won exactly the same one cat N diesel 07 in white VERY CLEAN drives beautifully I did buy it to sell hopefully i can get some tips from you what price your selling for and how you advertise - Look forward to the next video!

[@dangermouse957]

Don’t change the channel one bit mate really love it awesome cheers from Australia

[@jonathang9983]

Mini was cheap. Looking forward to seeing it. It will be an easy sale too. The youngsters still like them. Nice one. Interesting vid.👍🍻

[@graemew7001]

This is why I sub'd to your channel, straight to the point up front honesty, no bullshit and really interesting content. Copart say it'll be worth this when done and then the insurance company will say something waaaay lower when you insure it.....a car has so many values lol, but only one counts and thats what someone is willing to pay for it!

[@Fire-gv2wz]

I just finished my first car. Little i30 from Copart in one week. Selling is not my strong Point lol Fabulous video as usual 👍

[@Toby_the_Glen]

Selling, pricing, reading the market and handling people are all skills that you need. Rebuilding salvage is not just about spanners and paint.

[@Fire-gv2wz]

You are right there lol

[@neiljefferies9833]

You wont pick it up in 5 mins. You will have some big ups and some big downs, keep at it, do plenty of research before you bid or buy and as said u will need good people skills, get a good personal relationship with potential buyers, get them to like you. Goes a long way for me

[@BasilTS]

I really like your commentary, thanks for such a great description... keep up the good work

[@peterarmstrong3298]

Great fun to watch as as usual thanks. I live in Newcastle upon Tyne and would love to find out if there's anything similar up here. You have me inspired !!

[@sruk]

Peter Armstrong there will be one near you 👍

[@peterarmstrong3298]

@Peter Lynn thank you

[@scoyle1750]

I need another van and I think I will give copart a go, keep up the good work👍

[@vespamorelli7090]

Came across this channel a few days ago and now I’m addicted. Love it ⭐️

[@bobbobby5724]

Rob you are the master of your game, love love you videos.

[@thomasbath6013]

Thanks for another great intresting video! Always click on your videos as soon as i see them lol

[@sruk]

Thomas Bath thank you 👍

[@chriswilkes236]

Another good one, Rob. I have a Mini, and I'm looking forward to your repair.

[@sneekylinux]

Now, this is why I don't mind watching your videos matey, you keep to your limit and stay there....nice.

[@dannywaghorn7120]

Subscribed to your channel Rob. Very informative for a beginner like me. I have been looking at doing this for a while and recently picked up a Peugeot 207 1.4 2006 cat n with 10 months MOT for £280 to use as a runaround, it needed a front bumper headlight wing and wing mirror, I struck lucky finding all the parts in exact colour match for a bargain price of £65. I have definitely been bitten by the salvage bug. Now looking for another project.

[@roblinkin818]

Great video Rob nice to see the office side of things well done .👌

[@louie888888888]

Thanks rob a yet another good video. Keep them coming .

[@studley73]

Nice tips in this video keep up the good work I need to stop doing rebuilds for other people and do some for myself

[@christopherheritage5651]

Great help mate, been thinking about doing this as a bit of extra pocket money.

[@rogerdonaldsullivan1424]

I'm glad you have made this video to explain that it is really the insurance company's descreation

[@makavelimotorsport6165]

Cheers rob another great upload 👍

[@JustinWhiting9]

Brought / bought, say what you like Rob! You need a cheap little tripod, they free up both hands. I also recommend a folding case for your iPad. Protects it and stands it up at different angles. Doesn’t slip and slide and no need to prop up on books. Thanks for the vids fella! 👍

[@sruk]

Justin Whiting tripod turned up today mate and it’s my mrs iPad she has one of those cases not sure why it was off 👍

[@JustinWhiting9]

You will love the tripod Rob 👍

[@philc5513]

Loving the channel.A gem. Should have many more followers.

[@Mind-your-own-beeswax]

Just recently started watching your videos and it's good to see a warts and all honest approach to buying cars from the likes of cop art. One of my old cars ended up there with a blown turbo.

[@DalekBuilder]

Another good video Rob. You explain some of the do & don't mistakes people make with copart. As you said it's important to read all the information & look at the photos properly. Be nice to see the progres with the mini.

[@leedstown]

On auctions weather your there in person or a online auction you have to set a price in your head and stick to it..it's so easy to get caught in the excitement and go over your budget ,,great video Rob

[@sruk]

leedstown cheers mate 👍

[@JAY.4040]

Really profitable video thanks

[@propertydev6042]

Nice one, enjoyed the live bidding :-)

[@alexdalgleish1061]

Great vid again Rob. Mini a bit different. So that's 3 mainstream manufacturers you can consider. Look forward to the collection vid and the lookover on the way home.

[@ed_ejt0714]

Great insight into the auction process 👍, thanks for sharing.

[@Saint_Vincent1735]

Great channel, honest bloke. I've just turned on the notification bell.

[@nutwallnut2103]

Great video as always rob .Good information on bidding keep up the good work.

[@mysticala2021]

Quick question for you about the auction places. So I used to look a lot at the vehicles online auctions and they all have different categories. I'm just a diy guy and have little knowledge on any of this sort of stuff but really enjoy. watching this channel.I just would like to know about the category x and uncategorized etc. What is best avoided and what would be a good choice for starters.interested in small vehicles not for profit but purely for learning. Any info is much appreciated.

[@markwarr7059]

Another great video. More like this please. Really liked the way you gave advice about which cars are worth the money and just as important the car that really wasn't worth the effort or the money. More of these please mate. As I am in the learning part of this game and am looking for a car at copart wolverhampton at the moment. Again great vid mate. Keep them coming as we appreciate your insight and honesty. . Cheers !!!

[@dancastleton4198]

Be nice to see a new car u do mate lookin forward to the mini mate

[@speed18388]

another good video mate.i will löök forward for the video on the mini.

[@gerrym4377]

Mate you are absolutely brilliant, you have the skill and the know how to make it work including understanding the bigger picture... it’s like buying the car for 1p but having £699.99 in fees. You see that in reality it’s a £700 car where others think you are being robbed for the £699.99 😂😂 Classic eBay tactic. Crack on mate and please start ignoring the daft comments as they are being made by people who are bereft of any clue! Love the videos, from someone who does not buy, sell or repair cars but is just interested in your content 👍👍

[@sruk]

Gerry M thank you 🙏

[@matthewrice1452]

Great video Rob, really enjoyed that hope you do more like this.

[@williecook3412]

Hi Rob , you apologise a lot he he you don't need to your doing a great job here and taking over from that Whealer deal outfit on tv ,, keep them coming .

[@martinhughes7363]

Hi rob that car looks smart .

[@martindaredare]

Thanks rob ,very interesting video looking forward to seeing the mini

[@richweston6202]

Very helpful cheers Rob!

[@wisehat_yt]

I think I saw you on the train a few months back from Sittingbourne heading towards London on the southeastern! we had a little chat on the train. if this is you then it's good to see you again mate 👌

[@sruk]

Freddie2004.13 no wasn’t me sorry

[@OutdoorMTBcamping]

Found yoyr channel a few weeks ago. Really enjoying your videos so far keep it up 😊

[@sruk]

JDM Active thank you and welcome 👍

[@JohnCarverUK]

I am looking forward to seeing the Mini and what you might find for the repairs.

[@sruk]

John Carver that video is on here mate 👍

[@JohnCarverUK]

@@sruk I have just seen it, I am a bit behind with your videos, I am having a catch up this morning :-)

[@sruk]

John Carver thank you I appreciate it 👍

[@andrewmills1746]

After watching your video I've signed upto Coparts but so far haven't seen any ford fiesta going through for cheap money .. Will keep trying ;) Keep up the good work !

[@TheGreatestPlayerInTheWorld]

I love these videos so informative 👍🏾

[@mrsilver7246]

Brilliant video 👍🏻

[@bobbyaxelrod5016]

Hi, ilike you showing the cars for the beginner or someone starting out, any chance you could do some content on different types of trade insurance and just give some general info on who to use, what to pay, different options, if you have any knowledge about it that is. thanks, enjoy your vids

[@phillipclaridge3112]

That was good. Interesting to hear your views regarding Copart after listening to Paul. Looking forward to the Mini

[@smith12whu]

Great video mate. Would love to have the DIY skills for something like this.

[@SalvageDiaries]

Another great informative video Rob, keep up the hard graft looking forward to seeing the Cooper D. 👌🏼

[@colinstevenson9419]

I have no intention of repairing a car, just enjoy watching. Find it fascinating. Can't understand the thumbs down.

[@Scotiron]

Haha, I'm the same Colin. There is something fascinating about this. I love the skill Rob has knowing what's what.

[@andyjolley1451]

That was very interesting indeed. Whilst understanding the appeal of the quick turnaround for these cars, I can't wait to see another bigger job i.e. another Ferrari or Range Rover - they were mint viewing.

[@jamro9128]

Love how you always have a guess as what caused the damage ....love the videos keep it up buddy and the channel will grow!!!

[@beeswax888]

Your videos are ace mate, excited for the Mini 😎

[@sportshatch]

Great video as always Rob, look forward to seeing the Mini.

[@MrFlyingguy]

very enjoyable.....nice kitchen!

[@albertalbiala1053]

@salvage rebuilds uk Hi, I have a question, how do categories affect the price difference compared to cars without categories and how much can they be for some comparison when sold on the open market? Thanks.

[@evanescecse]

Another great upload liking your vids Rob 👍

[@Challenger540i]

You made a very interesting comment 'Bought a couple of lorries for export' That's very intriguing

[@healthystyle]

Great Video!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!

[@sruk]

healthystyle thank you for watching 👍

[@illeitog1453]

Hi Rob, im new on this, i just want to ask when it says NO LOGBOOK do i have to be concered? how im gonna take the car without a logbook? sorry for the silly question

[@TheGreatestPlayerInTheWorld]

You seem like a top top bloke! Great channel! Subbed!

[@martinhughes7363]

Nice 👍 car mini look 👍

[@richardsmith3315]

Good Evening. Thank you for your videos, they are inspiring and educational. Regards to this video. once you repaired the vehicle whats the rules around selling the vehicle afterwards. Does the vehicle have to stay at the same category in what you bought it from auction house or can you up date category so its fit for purpose?

[@sly2196]

As you mentioned on that 2009 Ford Fiesta Style with 69k N catagory, anything above £700-800 imo would be little profit as you mentioned If its recorded then down goes the value. and you can buy a them for around £1600 - £1900 with a clean title depending on where you look. Cheapest ive seen is £1,700 And when you add in the Mot, picking it up, fuel etc. If your doing it your self materials, sandpaper paint etc and thats gonna quick rack up. I got a little dent in my back arch majority is paint taken off.... wanted £800 but could be more. I cant see my self doing all this with very little profit Which i gotta admit you have a good gasp on costs and your total end costs. You got some good pick ups but with the work that Fiesta needed i can see it only being used as a car and being sold with a description of "Used as run around, 10 years old, bound to have some marks.. dont be expecting showroom qaulity "

[@jasonpatt6677]

Hi mate. If you buy a cat X which has its vin cut out of the chassis how would you go about sorting that?
