Hi, great videos. Just wanted to ask a quick question. If a car is cat n, is it just a case of taxing and insuring it? Or would you need to do a vosa check on it?
@CarsForPaul5 жыл бұрын
As long as the car is road worthy, you just need to tax and insure it. The VOSA test has been done away with for Cat N and S cars.

Paul, I'm new to the channel, I have a question about buying cars with exploded airbags, is this an expensive thing to get fixed ? [ I've never had to do one ] or is it best to buy them with a/bags intact.? Enjoy your videos Paul. Cheers.
@CarsForPaul4 жыл бұрын
airbags are cheap to buy if you get them from ebay or salvage yards, but you do need to know what your doing i.e. do not connect one with the battery connected

4:07 Just so you know, I believe that yellow triangle is not for the bonnet open. The car was displaying a message saying "check daytime running lights" so it is possible a headlight is faulty. I believe this because a while ago on my Punto that light came on with the message "check rear lights" and I had a bulb out.

It is for the daylight running light which has melted, good catch

Congrats on your auction win, looks to be a nice easy fix. I don't know if you're aware but you can remove the stench of burnt car and pretty much any other interior smell using an ozone machine. Check out amazon. If memory serves me right they're under £100.00. If you do get one make sure you use it outdoors and that you vent the car thoroughly after use it can be bad for your health. Looking forward to seeing this little beast restored to her former glory. I'd be interested to know what your copart fees come out at, but I'm sure you'll reveal all in due course.
@CarsForPaul5 жыл бұрын
Hi Paul, thanks for the tip. I actually have an Ozone machine and did a video of it in use on my Seat Leon project. the Car had a very strong dog smell which needed 3 treatments to get it clear of the dog, but eventually worked,
@paulfro19585 жыл бұрын
@@CarsForPaul Thanks for the reply my friend, I used one of these ozone machines on an Audi that had been heavily smoked in, like you I had to do the treatment a couple of times. Now the car stinks of the Wife's perfume!! The MOT guy upset her majesty by donning a mask and asking her what the heck the stink was!! You can't win can you?

He's recording some of the video after with a voice/camera over to explain the process. Hence why he said in the voice over about how he'll be showing how to remove the pin hole/dent then corrected himself to present time. He's not trying to scam or trick you, just trying to make the video easier for you to watch.

10 plate. So it's 9 years old. An approved body shop will want about 3 grand to respray that car. A decent one man body shop would charge half that. One I knew back in the day was run by two people. 4 to 5 resprays a week earned them 5 to 6 grand. Prep during the day and last thing spray and bake. After expenses they had 4 to 5 grand per week.
