Calvin how do you decide the winner on planet of dreams ? Do you pick a member at random or is it a automated system that picks a winner ?

[@mickehoe]

Just shows you how people behave online slating a guy like they knew anything about him. Fair play to you for clearing it up so nicely

[@katem86]

💯

[@sleepercell9926]

I've been waiting 16 years for the trend for Black alloy wheels to finally die off. I'm still waiting.

[@stephengraham6194]

Ashley was completely honest and generously offered the £500 to POD. Well done Ashley you’re a great bloke 👍

[@McfcMancs]

To me the guy seemed embarrassed when he thought the car had a problem. Calvin, you definitely need to buy that guy a house warming present when his house is built and he moves in. Great content, love watching them all.

[@ewscc3941]

I will admit I wrote, his body language was off when Calvin asked him some questions and seemed dodgy, so I will say I was wrong and i wish Ashley all the best 😊

[@CalvinsCarDiary]

What a legend. You absolute gent. Love that 🙌

[@UNFILTEREDANDUNCUTT99]

Well maybe his body language was off cause he’s got a camera shoved in his face knowing he about to go on net.. may have something to do with it just a thought.. you judgemental tosser

[@Carlos.G]

You’re a good man Calvin. Respect for raising the online comments. Positive energy always

[@BIRVS]

I said it needed bushes, tyres and the gearbox was fine. It’s had that rattle the whole time I owned it. Hopefully someone else gets to enjoy it now its been gone through and sorted. New water pump and starter in the last year too.

[@RM-gk2ck]

U were bang on lad😂👌 fair play to ya

[@markcozzie]

So poor Ashley got slatted and lost out,was a honest guy,good on you for also being honest and doing this update..

[@CalvinsCarDiary]

PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO UNTIL THE END! Too many people suggesting something that actually comes true in this video you just need to watch the whole thing.

[@davpunk1986]

Us all going mad in the comments saying Ashley was pure dodgy when it was Calvin that robbed the man blind 😂😂😂 fair play to both for being genuine lads

[@martin1125]

Hasn't Ashley been banged up for clocking cars in a big way??

[@RobLast-vh7dl]

I used to laugh at an old saying , you can’t polish a turd, that was until I bought a bmw

[@jlfc9024]

Always sceptical over doing car checks because if someone crashes it and doesn't declare it but then puts it back together themselves you would never know

[@homacidalmaniac5935]

Mate this video is full of legit honest people (Ashley, yourself and the guys at VRS). Made my day to watch this!

[@Griffsconstruction]

I’ve been a car trader an the risks involved are what comes with the job if you don’t want to take risk the jobs not for you you win some you loose some an calv your a really down to earth man really respect that

[@shaxx212]

Perfect example of how judgemental people can be without the full facts! Let’s also remember these videos are essentially snippets of real interactions as they’re edited. Definitely deserves an apology and the fact he was willing to give away the £500 when he needs the money should of said a lot about him anyway

[@0117NUMBER1]

I always say Never judge a book by it's cover,but goin against my own advice i had that impression of Ashley being a shady guy..Never made a bad comment about him just what i thought! How wrong was i 🤨 Think i need to check myself Respect to you Ashley my brother top guy👊🏽

[@kenrossaukrsa]

Change Shock top mounts and tie rod ends and universal joint rubber on the prop shaft…

[@haighie.]

Ashley smashed it shows how genuine you guys are

[@derekporter66]

Hahaha

[@kennywatson7823]

Top Lad Ashley, doesn’t pay to hang on, sometimes it’s about the turn over! Best of luck! Lovely car! ❤

[@philiphawkins4684]

Just top the oil up on the Gearbox and it will sort the noise out. We learned this from my friend 340i.

[@rupertm2542]

I commented on the first video and I have to say after watching this, my comment was fair. My gripe was he was happy to retail the car without prep, or didn’t have the mechanical acumen to detect faults. While I get everyone starts somewhere. He could have had someone else look at it, before tried to pass it on. His takeaway needs to be get every car he buys in checked by someone qualified mechanically. That car is a beaut, so he obviously has an eye for a nice car and could go far if he takes some lessons from you in car prep.

[@UNFILTEREDANDUNCUTT99]

Shut up bloke knows what he’s doing or he wouldn’t be in the trade.. always people at home who probably do nothing with there lives decide to sit on net preaching to others get a grip you drip.. blokes been around cars all his life he knew that car was spot on it’s not hard once uno your motors to spot a duff.. this was just Calvin being paranoid he not even need spend penny onit that was his choice 💀😂😂

[@UNFILTEREDANDUNCUTT99]

Dossers like you think you can sit at home on net an give out pointers don’t make me laugh kid 😩😂😂

[@Boysstuff7]

Calvin respect to you and Ashley! 2 fingers up to the haters! Old school trust still makes the world go round. Love the channel

[@tjlee5305]

Everyone quick to judge Ashley when he actually was a humble guy, accepted that there could’ve been a problem with the gearbox and then actually was generous to give the £500 away, can’t be anymore down to earth than Ashley, great video Calvin good luck to everyone who’s entered 🤛🏻

[@GeorgieBarnes-f6h]

I had a seat cupra bocenegra that used to clunk and rattle! Took it back 3 times and found out it was the type of clutch/gearbox they use and its normal

[@adamellard8534]

Really good video Calv. The way you turned around the comments and stuck up for Ashley was proper nice of you. Nice one.

[@ruisilva3317]

I often come to the comments half way through videos and I don’t know why but in the first half I got absolutely no indication he was dodgy. It wasn’t when I read comments that I agreed but why? Just comes to show that even when people speak bad about someone, don’t judge until you know them or you know the story entirely

[@matthewlewis1795]

The world needs more people like yourself and Ashley

[@ryanhall9347]

chill out, they're selling cars not feeding the poor

[@kallumedwards7749]

A little bushing in the steering rack helps that wobble done mine and the car feels completely different.

[@dedan2]

It’s not the gearbox. It’s probably the brake lines . It happens on many f series. Had it with my 435i too. You just need to change a part that holds the lines in place

[@nickyfegan628]

Fair play to Ashley 👍 don't judge a book by its cover

[@paulorchard7335]

What a nice guy Ashley is him and Calvin are two of a kind

[@northb271]

Thank you Ashley for not scamming calv top guy propa genuine what’s nice guy

[@MarcBirks]

have they got run flats on? the wobble and tramlining can be caused by a dodgy run flat. in regards to the gearbox, i had a f30 330d (2017) that had similar characteristics with the gear changes, and rattle noise more or less exactly what you described in the first vid, mine also used to do a little intermittent wobble through the car when in P or D with foot on the brake, anyway..... long story short, it went to BMW and after much argument with warranty etc i had a brand new ZF8 installed...… , car was totally different when it came back with a new box on it, silky smooth and totally silent no noises etc, so chances are regardless of what anyone says something is worn in both of those boxes if they sound the same, bmw told me the most likely cause of things going wrong on the zf boxes is overheating, abuse or car being ragged, donut, burnout, being stuck in snow etc, etc

[@DameAndThatGame]

Dayum Calv 😂 down to 11 over some bushings, that dude def didn't see YOU coming 😅

[@CalvinsCarDiary]

That’s not what happened sir. He offered it to me for £11k trade and I said I’d buy it for that. £15k is above retail money, I don’t pay retail+ money for cars. Watch the videos and it’ll all make sense 🙌❤

[@DameAndThatGame]

@CalvinsCarDiary Im honestly just having a laugh Calv, I watched the vids, very honest what you done. Gotta see the funny side tho, cmon 15 to 11k and that lad still got terrorised for a minute 🤣

[@anony-mousex]

6:20 the difference between those with a third eye and those without.. its like a sixth sense

[@quattrocam]

The Scariest thing most people don't know unless they create, is KZbin holds back "potentially" abusive messages for review, so if you see horrible comments just remember, those are the tamer ones

[@focus3303]

Now that is a decent bloke and your a great guy Calvin 😊🙏

[@big_gooch1601]

Fair play pal, I’m actually impressed you were so diligent re the mechanical prep. I’d buy a motor off you and I’m a right picking git

[@jbish1479]

I have a 64 plate M135i manual and mine does that little wobble which I worried about but glad to know it’s a common thing 😅

[@retrostu1]

Absolutely love the colour of that M135i Calv.

[@lesfernandez888]

I said he was a dodgy character, who despite being a 'car trader' seemed to know nothing about the car 😅😅😂 in the first video

[@cliffwilliams6521]

How wrong were you 😂😂😂

[@shanethomas7406]

Calvin, the Steering Wobble might be a brake caliper. I had something similar on my E46 320d Sport.

[@christopherbeevor9315]

I think Calvin didn’t describe the fault properly. I’ve had a few F20’s. It’s wandering not wobbling. As soon as he said the tracking made it marginally better I knew he’d say Will changed subframe bushes. F30 3 series suffer the same thing as well.

[@ifiindouptgoflatout]

Jeremy Clarkson once got a wiggle on when they first came out , , i loved the 335 when they came out too ,

[@user-wz4fw2ws1s]

Ashley, what a guy. Kudos to you on the way you conducted yourself throughout.

[@syvee45]

Ashley seems like a good guy to me..I’d buy a car off him ..nice bloke 👍👍

[@1888mag]

Great result for all Fair play to you both

[@The-Audi-driver]

Ashley, if I slated ya. I apologise lad. Can I have a 5k discount on a car

Big up Ashley , just goes to show not to be too quick to judge ❤

[@Mark-ir9gl]

Well done Calvin and Ashley 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍

[@mart099]

Another great vid Calvin. Ashley is a proper gent and just goes to show you can’t judge a book by its cover. Great car.

[@R_RPerformance]

Them comments was ruthless on that video🤣

[@Jamie7ee]

Fair play calv, you’ve done a full update video telling all. Ashley clearly just needed the money and was in a bit of a rut. Someone in the trade would be a complete fool to try and do you over with a snide car because with your platform and huge following their reputation would be finished. All the best to Ashley, get that lotto on bro! And I hope I win that yas marina m135i it’s stunning 😅

[@mr4x41111]

Nice video Clavin. What a nice guy Ashley is, and I hope that the £500 goes to someone that really needs it. Sorry I'm behind on your videos but thank you for all your hard work keeping us all entertained.

[@t.p.oelectrical8679]

He is a top bloke

[@That_spicy_rocco]

The phantom rattle that only Cal could hear lol, Ashley did look slippery tho in the previous video

[@griffogriff9532]

Well done Calv, another great video, I’m glad it was great outcomes all around 👍

[@stevengreen5842]

I left a bit of a bad comment I believe about the car possibly being a ringer, but I take that back and send my apologies to Ashley please

[@tomcooling3775]

Yep, it was me who couldn’t get insured in the car, gutting 🤣

[@astongrad930]

They're nortorious for being written off hence the high premiums, were you able to get a quote and if so how much?

[@tomcooling3775]

@@astongrad930 so high man, when I brought the car I made a mistake in the quotes , and was getting quoted 1k a year as a ‘student’ when buying the car I realised I made the mistake of putting the wrong occupation. When correcting it to builder I was getting like £5000 a year, and I wasn’t prepared for that. When looking back I should have went for it 🤣

[@astongrad930]

@@tomcooling3775 damn, I feel your pain. I can't belive it's cheaper when you're a student. As a suggestion, if you're self employed have you considered putting yourself down as a director in the property trade?

Unfortunately some in the car trade are not as honest as Ashley and yourself Calvin. A few bad apples tarnish the industry. Really pleased that it has all ended well and top drawer giving Ashley the £500👍👍👍

[@Bin-The-L-Plates]

I posted on Pt 1 just before watching Pt 2 and Ashley’s ‘gift of gab’ and patter has done him a disservice, however I still stand by my comment…… don’t trust a guy who can’t put on seat belt properly. 😜 You know it makes sense Ashley. Good luck for the future.

[@jackwarren-4041]

Think Ashley’s owed an apology another case of never judge a book my it’s cover 🙈

[@davidlowe3854]

I was also wrong on Ashley, hopefully you can get him back on the channel in the future Calv to do some more business with and its not put him off.

[@phil-5979]

My M140i had the same steering behaviour, ruins the drive. Check the thrust piece in the steering rack Calv. A knocking noise when turning the steering wheel with engine off is a sign of it being worn.

[@raymondstaniland2416]

Lovely jubbly Calvin 👍🏻

Calvin it should be you we should be aware of 😂😂😂😂 nice video glad it worked out for everyone involved. The guy still took a big loss given him £1500 back lol. Also he was probably just nervous that came across as he was up to something. Just goes to show never judge a book by its cover 👏🏾👍🏾👊🏽

Nice one Ash.

You say he's sound, but he must have driven it and seen this issues before bringing it to you? What would he have sold it for if you didn't have the issues on the drive?

Could the rattle be the rear subframe/diff area..and the bushes fix it?

I didn’t comment on the last video but my views towards Ashley were negative I won’t lie. I would like to apologise by judging Ashley (despite not commenting) negatively. Fair play to both Ashley and yourself Calvin
