I can honestly say to you all having met phil yesterday he is such a genuine honest guy. I bought the car yesterday for my daughter and can’t recommend him enough! I wish all mechanics were as straight and honest as him. Keep up the good work Phil you are one of the good guys! 😊
I have a 2013 Golf GT 150 bhp with 50k. In immaculate showroom condition. Updated VW infotainment system. The car has every extra factory fitted. Slight bang that required new bonnet and NS wing and headlight. Over email third party assessor wrote it off. I complained to Aviva that £1k repairs didn’t justify writing off a £9500 car in such superb condition They agreed and £1k repair by insurance later I had my car back Disgraceful
Hi Phil glad your back. Another great video & car. You should treat yourself to a heater for your unit, might help with your colds. What format do you sell your cars on? Would be great to purchase one of your cars like i30 n line with your vid on it. Keep up the great work looking forward to the next upload.
Thanks Paul, they usually end up on ebay if they don't sell on here. Can contact me on seriousaboutsalvage@gmail.com if you see anything your interested in 👍
Most likely hit a deep pothole and that’s what caused the damage. Written off because remember all new parts needed bumper, wheel, and probably fractured in a possible right leg and painting for the bumper. Not cheap with labour at around £150 an hour too. Plus that model has been discontinued because it can’t meet euro 6. Auto trader have a very similar one for sale same plate at £23,000!
Insurance companies are a joke these days. They write off cars at the drop of a hat, when quite a lot can be repaired for minimal work. There needs to be tougher regulations on car insurance and stop the spiralling costs to the motorist.
You’re still having fair bit of luck with lot of straightforward projects. Long may it continue. Give up the footy maybe. Glad had some holidays for a change.

That bloody Peacock again 😂
Reminds me of the noise Lenny Henry used to make when doing his 'Katanga, my friends' character on Tiswas. Maybe he's moved into the unit next door
Hi Phil, good to see you back mate, nice easy one here on a quick turn round. Nice comment from the purchaser 👍😎
great to watch cheers! would be really interesting to hear the figures at the end of each build - if we can hear you above the peacock that is 🤣

Enjoyed the video - thanks Sue 😊💪
Great to see you back at it again
Anybody got any Paxo for the bird?!! Great video, great car and glad to see you back!

Hi, been watching your channel, since day one, Enjoy watching all your new projects, Quick question what auction company do you buy your salvage from?
Give it a service. For what it costs, It could probably do with new Oil & filters. Otherwise it's a good buy for someone
Another great video Phil
nice one phil
Cheers mate
Any chance of speaking as really interested about purchasing for my daughter
them rear tyres were advised on last MOT
Nice to see you back Phil. Nice easy fix for once.
Nice to see another video from you.
Have I missed what’s happening with the Stelvio Quadrifoglio?
Great video lovely car, how much did you pay for it?
I thought you give it all up where have you been
Just had a couple holidays bud, nothing to exciting 😐
Back after Tea
Is the skoda fabia ready yet phil
Where do you sell your cars?
Phil have you still got the V8 Mercedes.
Yes mate, probably appear in the unit again soon!
what's the best way to get side.airbage of the roof , square metal tabs won't budge , it's on a ford puma
Pain in the backside arnt they!.... there is a special tool you can buy, probably one on ebay, i use a big flat head screw driver and prise them out.
What's the score with the Alfa Romeo which one is it shat you doing with it looks very nice
Maybe its hard to get the parts brand new ?
Looks like someone hit the front wheel when it was parked up as it was pushed forwards..
Have you been sick again mush 🤑🤣
Always something wrong with me mate, usually football injuries !
Around 32 min mark front discs look very worn
Disappointing to see that the rust already started in some spots. A car of that age shouldn't do that yet.
Is that for sale now if so where as really interested in it
How much for the i30
Hi Richard, looking for 7.5k.
Check with hyundai for recall on the power steering .ive checked myself and there iz a recall for the steering
Hi Paul, i saw that but the vin on this wasn't within the recall. I believe it was for a software update anyway.
Cracking car Phil 👍
You ok no new videos to watch
how much is it for sale glad to see you back
Looking for 7.5k mate.
How did you fracture your rib
Football 😁
@@SeriousAboutSalvage lol
Is the skoda fabia for sale phil
Yeah will be, i've got everything to finish it. Hopefully next week will find some time to finish it off.
how much did you get robbed for the new steering column?
Second hand, only £120. Thought it was rather reasonable !
Where have you been???
Had a couple of holidays with the family 🙂
Why don't you ever tell us how much you paid, also, don't you service the car before selling it?
Hello mate

@@moran68 ok Kevin....
@@SeriousAboutSalvage have some respect for your subscribers or don’t bother posting videos .
Pothole damage I bet
The insurance just seem to write cars off for nothing
For that amount of damage why would you bother going through insurance, could have bought it back as well.
