We Take A Gamble !!! 2014 Mercedes Vito Panel Van LCV

[@kossak007]

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....

[@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!

[@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.

[@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

[@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

[@bradwhiteuk]

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

[@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.

[@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. ✌👊.

[@richardjones5255]

A great turn around on the Vito Van, nothing missed out, and nothing glossed over. Considering the gamble you took, the journeying about and all the brisk work you have done, you have earned a fair return for your confidence. It is a valid point, you stuck your necks that bit further than others with your winning bids, the seller had his money, you won the vehicles, and worked the profit. An excellent result for everyone in my book.

[@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 !!

[@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!

[@benwaterton805]

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

[@Michael-m4y]

Nice to see chris doing more on the videos

[@willchet9241]

Props to Chris for making an effort with filming.

[@ZL-jr5xp]

Chris taking over camera duties, 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.

[@robturner7945]

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

[@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.

[@stevedane787]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@benevans3733]

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

[@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.

[@pamboskourtoulos5239]

When i first saw the van, i said to myself, no way too much exterior to do, but you did it again bravo. Have a great weekend

[@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.

[@ged3680]

Hello Rob and Chris, another excellent video showing how you both work as a team to get projects done. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged

[@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

[@andyparker522]

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

[@stephenricketts7764]

Taking a chance on all those vans is as you know part of your kind of work. Generally you manage to get off OK. That was a bit naughty with the roof but I have seen it before, it is usually just laziness, take the rack off and can't be bothered to plug the holes . The same goes for the door, just throw some washers in that will do. You two would never do such a thing I know but you are right Rob in saying how far do you go. Great video and numbers gents have a good weekend Chris and Rob. 👍👍

[@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.

[@kevinthomas1259]

Great to see Chris straightening those hinges. A brilliant return for not too much work, but appreciate the trouble you go to to pick them up.

[@telfordlive]

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

[@millrythe100]

Two of the nicest honest guys in the industry

[@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.

[@kingdick30]

Well done guys, had a few of those vans now and still running one, really dependable and well built and main dealer parts are surprisingly priced. Whoever buys it will be well pleased.

[@super6954]

Thanks for another great video, I bet Chris finds straightening doors back either goes easy or they are a pain. over the years I've probably done 50 steel framed tractor/machine cab doors guys have smacked into gateposts and other things and that's what I find. Yeah that dogs smart with that ball. We use to fatten 5000 pigs a year here. Those animals ripped the boards off in the barns and figured out pushing a 6ft long planed 2x6 piece out of a mesh gate in the end of the barns with 6" x 4" holes in it. Quite often we'd find stuff they found or ripped off outside in the mornings where they chucked it out after playing with it for a while. They'd even throw all the bits of a Stanley knife out over a few days if one got dropped in there while cutting strings on bales and they found it. Take care guys.

[@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" 😁

[@arthurblundell6128]

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

[@jonathanhammond3748]

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

[@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 👍 👍

[@sammytheseal2307]

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

[@chrishines6048]

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

[@nickmackenzie703]

Nice job Chris and rob on the merc van.

[@stevet1963]

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

[@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....

[@philtucker1224]

Rob and Chris, I’m really enjoying this format where you are both inputting your contributions to the repairs as you go. It’s like actually being there helping to do the repairs….- very very enjoyable. Best regards from “an old Thanet boy” 😊

[@sonnytaylor6580]

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

[@murdi511]

Nice wee turn.. Amazing it probably took less time to fix that door properly than the bodge did. Just shows you that it's only easy when you know how

[@davep4589]

I think after all this time we are all aware how much Chris doesn’t like the camera, BUT he’s more involved now and he’s really good at it, just like anything bloody else he does 😇😇 so please carry on Chris, another good video with a nice wage at the end of it very well deserved to,

[@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.

[@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 😎

[@jamiemason9548]

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

[@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 👍

[@1mic3]

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

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hi Rob and Chris,another great van.just cleaning it has made a difference.Do the holes in the roof and it will be a nice van to sell on.

[@DB71170]

What's that dogs name Ronaldinho 🤣 , nice bit of Chris explaining what he's doing etc . Not bad set of Van's so far & a decent profit well deserved guys 👏. Stay safe and look forward to seeing the next one.

[@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.

[@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 👍

[@markopolo9559]

These Vito vans are amazing and well built vans. I had one for years and my collegue had his for 5 years and drove 50k miles a year.

[@williamchisholm5776]

Another great turn around for you guys well done

[@cornishrider]

Great narrative from Chris, nice van values are high at the moment so glad you can make a good profit.

[@tomjohntig]

Great little work van, good to see Chris use his knowledge about how to manipulate panels to factory spec with a piece of iron and brute force lol. It’s a shame about the company that went into liquidation but good that you and Chris putting the vehicles back on the road Rob. Pity they haven’t got any company cars to get rid of the content would have been great and you could have got a 6 month rail pass Rob lol. Thanks for another great entertaining video looking forward to the next one. Tom

[@westernmonitor]

Great vid Rob and Chris a Friday treat for me

[@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.

[@Tim67620]

Another great video guys and a really quick flip, even with the travelling. Don't forget to change the gear knob. You must have mentioned it four times. All the best and great stuff.

[@sonofedmund5004]

Chris works his magic on the door, Robs got the knob and the glug! Dream team!

[@Wightmech]

Great van guys and again another really good practical lesson from Chris. Thanks both, looking forward to the next one!

[@jeremyaustin9103]

Favourite KZbin channel. Chris is so gifted

[@jimschafer9196]

Another lovely flip, my dad taught me about the door adjustment back in the day, I have used it several times.

[@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 😂

[@chrisstyles4630]

Another cracking van well done Chris & Rob these vans are proving to be great content & quick flips looking forward to the next one

[@martf9875]

Hi Rob Chris ,,yet another great vid ,,it is nice for a change as you haven't had to work hard to make a crust ,,,turned out a nice little van ,,Chris doing his magic yet again on the door ,,enjoy your profit,,you never kick the arse,,,out of any money you ask ,,keep em coming, stay safe all 👍

[@66mjtaylor]

Great job guys, thanks for your continued efforts in pulling together these videos

[@leahwells5692]

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

[@paulkidd4443]

Fair play for the asking price Rob - Given how much time you spend on these vehicles and the attention to detail you don't need to apologise for how much you put the vehicles up for - Well done !!

[@grayfool]

Nice easy one. Nice bit of persuasion from Chris.

[@jigmetarap2514]

Really enjoying Chris doing his solo bits. Big hello from Edinburgh

[@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...

[@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. 😀

[@generalt1090]

Love it that you’ve got a sweet profit out of it! Great work guys!!!

[@george1981e]

Great video, this is the second time in a week I want to buy one of the vehicles you’ve done even though I have absolutely no need for it. Well done.

[@Highbury007]

Like watching your video spent a lot of time on sheppy in my youth but now live in Essex just seeing the old bridge and of course your repairs great fun to watch

[@tonykeast9966]

Winner. Great little Van's. Nice good fair flip boys.

[@theteacaddy2766]

What a nice quick turnaround video. Makes great content as always !!! Looking forward to seeing what takes its place.

[@tomiboyc4423]

Keep up the travelling Rob and you’ll be the Alan whicker of the salvage world in no time. great video again as always guys 👏👏👏

[@benevans3733]

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

[@ericglass952]

Great job to both of you and Chris for sorting the with a clever fix

[@RobDavies1972]

Great work lads 👍

[@paulwalker427]

nice ply lined , top work with that square stock on the door, looked like she needed a service, wind noise from them roof bar holes no doubt

[@darrenallen898]

Nice to see chris on camara more he is 1 smart fella great videos never miss 1 have a good week end boys .

[@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 👍🏻

[@rhiantaylor3446]

Credit to your KZbin work for giving you the exposure that brings opportunities to your attention. You earn your money but it doesn't hurt ! I would have loved to have bought one of your Merc vans at the prices indicated to build a camper - one day...

[@sruk]

It will be for sale tomorrow

[@stevewhite1444]

Great video guys short and sweet but just shows if you know your stuff you can do well. Loving seeing and hearing Chris more. He knows his stuff and always interesting. Have a good weekend guys 👍

[@sprograt]

Great to see another video. 👍

[@kevinnye5132]

Nice to see you directing yourself now Chris 🤔 finding your own camera angles 😉, is there anything you can’t turn your hands too 😁. Blimey Rob could watch that dog and ball game all day 😁, do you have any half inch washers spare 🤪👍🏻. Nice video guys and have a great weekend.

[@1978JonBullock]

Rob and Chris another great video. Great find by Carvertical on the milage. Another cracking van somebody is going to be very happy.

[@MrButtonpresser]

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

[@ianclare5721]

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

[@CGbikes]

Nice to see you working hard Rob.. Playing ball with dog.. And well done Chris on the excellent camera work while working hard 🎥👌😊 Nah good team work guys💯😊
