Enjoyed that video with you and Sophie, should do more , its something different 👌
Thanks Dean
@@ShiftingMetalit’s certainly got potential this format ( fellow car dealer here and if I tried to film when my mrs gets involved in helping with the cars it would be total car crash tv - well done for trying this!)
I really enjoyed this video, it was great to see you both working together❤.
Love the auction house videos, thank you again, and also Bless you both too , keep safe, well, and happy xxx
Sophie’s great!!
Used to have an Antara, 4wd, great car, the only thing, was the dpf cleaning, used to take it down the motorway, kept in 4th gear to clean it. Never had the dpf light on in 3 year.
Seems a ok car for the money, and Sophie even in wellies is still super gorgeous we need more of her on the videos to make up for the dull tubby transporter guy and the little kid who films. Sophie will make the Channel soar to the top ..
Nice video. Good to see that you are still enjoying your Jag, too!
Lovely couple! Really enjoyed that Joe. Sophie is also easy on the eye 😍
What a great bond you both have
Another great down to earth video Joe👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Good to see your experiences with cheap stock always enjoyable great team⭐️⭐️🐴
Excellent content, we need more of Sophie in your video.
Sold in the United States first as a Saturn and after Saturn's demise as a Chevrolet which was originally sold only to rental and fleet buyers.
We only got gasoline-powered 2.4L 4cyl and V6 models as well as a hybrid.
Sold fairly well.
Great video, looking forward to finding out just how much it costs to reinstall the 4 wheel drive
I used to sell a lot on Antaras but I’ve stopped buying them, just too many headaches. Always popular tho.. The gear issue sounds similar to one I had, think we adjusted the linkages and was ok.
Well Christmas has come early🤣great to see sophie with you and definitely should do more together,she did make me laugh though as normally she doesn't like the camera but on this one she was looking at the camera and flicking her hair so not sure if she was flirting with me🤔🙈🤣🤣all joking aside it was something different and hopefully the car will do ok even without the 4x4 on it🤞🤞well done guys🤟🙂👍
Sophie should have her own channel mate
I like Sophie. Great video Joe. 👍
How about a comp to see which of you can make the most profit from a budget of a grand? It would make a great video.
For sure. Girl power girl energy sales. Think Missus would win. Sadly !!!! My salesman twenty times better than me. As impartial and ‘good cop’. Then I come in as bad cop. As was seen punter. Holding the price. . Lol.
Been thinking of this for a while just logistics of doing it! 👍
That is a nice bit of kit......that Jaguar is a cool car :)
Love the video and content. Can you admit you are keeping the Jaguar regardless of the BMW selling 😂😂 I Loved seeing you and Sophie on camera, clearly not impressed with the Jaguar 😂😂.
Antaras - I have been looking at a lot of these (on line) because they are cheap SUV's. The reason is that they are prone to very expensive drive train problems including transfer boxes, gear boxes and prop shafts. Clutches are very expensive to replace as well. Good luck. Decent engines just a bit too powerful for the drive trains.
I'd like to see more of the actual repairs being done to some cars, including body work/paint jobs and also more of your Mrs.. If she became a bit more relaxed on camera then you could have a good chemistry going on, which would add a lot to some of the vids. All of this in my humble, non mechanic and non video producing opinion of course.
Great vibe between u and Sophie in the video Super Joe...🦸♂️🦸♀️😍😍 Great to see a bit of insight into Sophie's side of things as well and you both killed me with the "loose flap" comment...lol...😂😂😂 Will be interesting to see what you make on this one Super Joe...💰💰💰
😂
Keep the Jaguar it’s a beauty ! That car is great fun for little money 👍
Had an Antara in covid. 750. Got £2895. Think was only £600. Unreal covid month profits. Most are awful two I’ve had been great. I’m not buying a third. I already skirt around all Vauxs. Pretty much.
Joe … clearly punching above your weight
With Sophie 😅…
take the prop off on a r/r free lander will improve mpg by as much as 8 to 10 to the gallon
Never heard of vehicle score before so did a check on mine…… 539 and value between £1500-£1900. Not bad for a one owner car bought for £500 in 2019
Great video 😆 I have never gone to a car auction but wanted to, but too worried about a lemon 😅 Had a prop shaft go on a car I purchased years ago, drove like it was on sqaure wheels 😂 Have a good evening 👍
as clarkson once said it's a jaggggg, not bad for £1200 hopefully some decent profit left in it
Quality content as always Joe. I've been tempted to get an Antara into stock. Are they good sellers?
Hi Joe,great video,these Vauxhall Antara are nice cars.this one looks clean.
You will be able to get a used prop shafts easily enough just hope the read diff is okay, Mark
Exactly, they'll be some drivetrain issue
I got an Antara for sale .56k miles automatic black . Beautiful car . Cheapppp !
Antara was a tragic thing when it was new that's why nobody bought them.
Who said chivalry is dead😂 hope the coat was unscathed.
Thanks for a good video. Think vehicle score need to work on their software. Got a score of 2 with this SAAB 9-3 (LC56PWO) from Vehicle score. Mot till Oct next year with new brakes, tyres & everything working. A fiesta with no mot (VN54KMJ) scores 651? 15th November 2023
I always check MOT history using the government website and the history
Solid information.
But vehicle scores checks is OK 👍🏻
Hateful cars. I had multiple issues until it finally shredded it's transfer box at 45k . £4k to repair VX paid just under half and I got rid as soon as it was fixed.
If the third brake light is DISCONNECTED, the MOT tester has to give the benefit of the doubt to the person putting the car in for the MOT I believe.
Joe, would be interested in what it would cost to replace propshaft. Might not be that pricey. 🤷♂️
Your advert for VEHICLE SCORE
I did my car which I’ve had from new with no expense spared and full service history but they gave it a dismal score , so I won’t be using them in future as they are very unrealistic checks ,sorry but the other vehicle checker is more reliable
When your good lady said she had a loose flap and you were going to check underneath I thought oi oi this is a strange car channel 😂
I ended up in county court over a land rover, luckily only small claims, which I lost, but yes you can easily end up in criminal court these days, I saw an article about a guy doing old vw campers, one was rusty (!) I mean what was it 1969(!)he got 6 mths jail time. This games so dodgy these days.
That's mental. When I've sold the ones I've had I've binned them off to trade or sold as seen as scrap for this reason, too many comebacks. Had one guy corner me in the street and call the Police because DVLA told him I hadn't returned the v5 and it had been 3 weeks - people expect perfection and things to be all instant.
@@CookieMonsterawryes bud, I've been thru every sinario with selling cars, only thing I do now is Internet only, the farther away the better, I used to be the friendly local garage, but as you say you can't even go to the supermarket, got a guy plaguing me now, car needs a brake pipe, he's had it 2 years, I've let him down says he.
Does Sophie have a website for her cars
Good video of the cheaper car market but please less car score
Your punching there Joe haha
A lot of people remove that shaft for better mpg.
did you manage to sort the car out in the end, great double act lets see more
These were sold internationally as the Chevrolet Captiva, known as Craptiva for good reason.
Never heard of Vehicle Score….just put mine in and scored 999! Result….cheers
Awesome 😎
Where do i see your stock from the farm
@10:15 "Well, we're here".
Mine does the same
isn't that the gm Captiva sold here in Australia was the Holden captive reliability is just horrible just scrap it would be easier 😂😂
Shitfting metel am struggling for good stock currently with bca but its like needle in hay stack thinking opening an account with maniham have you had luck with them ?
Keeping it real..ll.
Always think I see fewer and fewer of these on the road/for sale as time goes on. This is probably a great example of why mate 😂
I think you’re right! 😂
Your never please everyone but thanks for time
When people remove the prop shaft it’s so there pay less road tax if I’m not mistaken 6:50
Car on MOTORWAY actually had 17 advisories other day. Still had a cheeky bid but thought crap. Every Q going to be…. Have the advisories been done
Aww how cute are you two like two awkward teenagers ❤
My 2008 Ford Mondeo 2.2 tdci 174bhp Titanium X estate only got a score of 199 🤣 My girlfriends 2023 KIA Stonic Special Edition (4,500mile) got a score of 999 💯
Pmsl all the way through it’s like a mini Tv series ❤👍🏻but sorry to say the worst suv ish on the market but hopefully u turn it around and make some profit cash 💴 😅
I only go to Aston barclay bud, check as much as possible and these days go for fairly simple bread and butter cars, I keep looking at a freelander I bought 2 years ago, in limp mode, just parked up, tbh you seem to buy cars you like, BM, s and stuff like that, there the problem ones, it's just a product so I'd (and do now) go for plain and simple, I've been bitten so badly on complected stuff, nearly puts you out of business.
Worst one I got bitten on was a 730D a few years back. Purchased from trade, should of got suspicious as it was off site at his home address. He went and got it and after a test drive it seemed okay. Paid 6k cash and drove home, only to find once it got onto national limit roads the gearbox was all over the place and stopper changing. Turns out the torque converter on the box was shafted, no comebacks as it was a cash deal. Sold it two days later after being told a new one was 4k part alone, for 2k losing 4k. This is why I've said before Joe is a good decent guy, he doesn't try covering things up. I'd definitely take a trip and buy from him, as I'm not far away.
@@CookieMonsterawr I've got a yard full, of cars with problems from the auctions, working thru them.
Had loads of freeloaders with no props. Always have a quick look underneath now.
Unfortunately absolutely gteed to have box or diff troubles, it'll not have been a bad prop, I'd not go too far with it tbh, if it's in limp it's a proper auction lemon, sorry bud,
That was a funny video
Tok Tok 💜👍
Quite simple prop shaft has been removed because Vauxhall Antara’s suffer really badly with rear differential problems, I’ve had one of these crappy cars and paid nearly as much to have it fixed as what the car was worth. They are 100% a pile of shit I took mine to Vauxhall and they even refused, saying that they didn’t have the parts and were unable to get them they even didn’t want the work and that’s a mainstream Vauxhall garage. It was the last Vauxhall ever bought and it will continue to ever be the last Vauxhall I will ever own terrible cars. I feel your pain they are a money pit I guarantee you will spend more on it than what the car is worth
These cars are well known for having a very weak four wheel drive system and a four wheel drive gearbox is very very expensive, there is a bearing in the 4x4 diff which collapses which makes the diff explode. I made a video of how to disconnect the drive to the rear free of charge or at very little cost and makes it more economical to run. When I sold our Antara the buyer wanted it because the diff had been disconnected. czcams.com/video/xkZYx-OZRJA/video.html
I agree with Sophie, American cars have a distinct plasticky smell, like the plastics are really cheap and nasty (toxic?) 🤮
Were you looking at your phone whilst driving there? Naughty.
Can I give you the £5 for the Jag Joe ?! 😜
Maybe your get more likes if you let the mrs do more vids lol good buy that car Soph.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🚘
You are going to sell VehicleScore better if you actually use it as a matter of course in your business Joe 🤨
Its crap anyway
Just need to ask - are you trying to see how money you can loose ? Told you was a rich man 👍🚗
Haha, if I can’t make money on this then I shouldn’t be in business 👌
@@ShiftingMetal BCA are nearly as bad as robbing people as Auto Trader 👍
Where possible one should always collect one’s better half in a Jaaaaaag.
Very true! 🐆
Don't know about you, but I feel like we're just being used to make auctions money, paying high prices, then it's loads of work, then customers with all the rights won't buy till it's cheap, getting very difficult, it's one of the few jobs where you can loose big style, never mind even making minimum wage,
I do keep thinking about the idea of opening an auction rather than a dealership! 😂
@@ShiftingMetal I thought that years ago bud, also in the 80s I got the details for a mobile phone business but carried on dealing in cars, ha, ha.
Can you both reenact that Kanye and Kimi video...preferably on the back of a horse? Ta. x
That’s what you get when people with money buy cheap cars…
Is this an episode of Car Share….
Yes
Bad news then cars 😂
Less of a car channel more of a soap opera!
Coming from the same guy who commented yesterday wanting to know more about Sophie and how we met?! 🤔
The soap opera comment was a poz one. It's a great car/people balance. So, how DID you meet??@@ShiftingMetal
@@jonathanpork-sausage617Weird.
@@jonathanpork-sausage617 Fair enough! Tinder 🔥 🤦🏼♂️😂
Thanks for sharing that. You two have a good and unusual vibe. Peace out as the youth say.@@ShiftingMetal
Your girlfriend is nice, you should be kind to her.
a score of 3 lol
Blaming the woman - you must have a sadistic streak.
‘the woman’ 🙄😂
Didn't know if the lady is your wife, mistress or excuse@@ShiftingMetal
Will she be punished?
You never win arguments with women.
You are a bit of a mansplainer 😂 i think your partner can work out heater controls by herself
Almost a 5 min commercial at the start 😴😴😴😴😴😴😴
Are you concious of how many times you use the word, "Darling"? darling.
No, could you count them up and let me know, darling?
@@ShiftingMetal 7 or 28dph
U should marry her ,wheres the kids we want kids on here lol baby 👶 borrow
How much is car trader insurance,plates ? Can you maybe make some video about trade insurance ?
