It always amazes me how many people say 'but it's a good car' when you tell them it's beyond repair ! Just because the cabin is dry and the radio works does not mean it's salvageable ! Then they say 'it just needs a service' and offer to pay £50 expecting that will keep it on the road for another couple of years when it hasn't been serviced in the last eight years and every ball joint, suspension strut and brake line needs replacing along with tyres, exhaust and brake pads and that's on top of an engine and gearbox rebuild, new clutch and radiator and full wiring harness on a 18yr old Corsa that's been rolled a couple of times !
I personally think German TÜV is a pita because I keep my cars in good shape for my own safety but seeing this I think in general something like this is needed due to the stupidity of so many people... SCARY!!!
This is why here in the Uk we have a MOT inspection every year on every vehicle over 3 years old, to see that they are roadworthy. If not then you cannot drive it until it is.
Good for you. I'm sure there are zero downsides to this and it's surely not a way for the government to grab more of your money. BTW, if your not picking up my sarcasm chap, it seems you're deep throating the whole boot.
Pay $60,000+++ for a vehicle and just put gas in it and drive it 'til it quits. 55 years ago when I was a teen pump-jockey, I thought it was horrible when someone drove in a 1950 car with worn-thru brake shoes, or dust on the bottom of the dipstick(s), or nothing but steam in the radiator, or TUBES showing thru the tire "treads"-those were barely $1000 NEW! I've seen the yellow-brown oil/coolant mix and rear main seals dribbling oil up the driveway, "I think I may-of hit summin..." and the tranny pan, oil pan or "pumpkin" is busted, "steerin' ain't quite right" because the tie rod is broken or the steering box is broken, "she's gringin' when I shift" because there's no clutch plate left, or "clutch pedal is stickin'" 'cause the throw-out bearing is GONE, the battery with NO TOP ON IT...steam comin' outta everywhere and NO BELTS left...raining day and NO WIPER re-fills LEFT, "whuzat scrapin' noise?"-Geez. My mechanic showed me the CENTER of a disc brake and had the OUTSIDE on his arm for a bracelet-woman with three kids in the car, half of one caliper was GONE! I'm 70 and hardly drive much, but my vehicles get oil and filters every 5000 miles with premium synthetics and "book services" more than twice as often as it says, 20K-25K on platinum plugs, 2011 Ram has had two "iffy" coil-packs replaced at 70K miles, I'm INSANE about tires! Two flat repairs and the tire gets replaced, often all FOUR-I've put the twenty-fifth "hot-patch" on inner tubes-looked like a patch-work quilt! $.50 cents for a patch, maybe $7 for a NEW TUBE!!! Thank God I didn't keep a camera with me in 1967 at the service station...the flathead Fords we HEARD comin' two miles away because everything behind the manifold was draggin' on the ground. Ya' offer to fix a "beater" for YOUR safety and they b*tch "That's too much money!!!" for salvage parts installed basically free-not one CENT of labor! Bless mechanics and appliance repairmen-all they get is griped at.
I will again ask this channel, and any other channel that does these “Customer State…” videos, to possibly EXPLAIN what we’re looking at. Some of us aren’t mechanics and have no idea what we’re looking at. A brief explanation would be great.
whu do some people even buy a car? there shoud be an iq-limit for owning and driving cars - dont need to be a genious to figure out that cars are machines,and machines needs maintenance
I retired 6 months ago after 40 years as a tech. Watching these type of videos makes me realize, I don't miss it one tiny bit, zero, nada, zip
I retired early as a direct result of degrading cars and the decline of human intelligence, hell no I miss no part of this grotesque charade

I think the first fella that said he hit a hubcap forgot to mention that it was still attached to a wheel 😮😅😂
Along with an entire axle as well.
Always love the forbidden chocolate milk shots
It amazes me how people NEVER CHANGE THEIR OIL AND FILTER!! That is text book car care, also rotate and balance your tires every oil change as well.
Indulging in the forbidden pleasure of chocolate milk shots always brings pure, irresistible joy.
it's amazing how some people manage to survive with their choices!
Always a good feeling when you pull the oil drain plug and 0w-0 comes out
And OwO comes out?
bro@@redmadness265
Something like H20
11:24 awwwweee!!! Flies are so cute when they’re babies!! Said no one. Ever.
my son is a mechanic for ford and him and the guys in the shop always yell, "did you try banging on the starter?"
some of these things make me wonder how some humans survive lol.
@1:00 the hubcap was attached to the wheel still. 😂😂😂😂
9:10 - I never knew you could get a subaru in diesel!

Under heat and pressure oil and water sure do mix!
Mayonnaise. It's good for you.
great video, find it funny how some of these customers dont even know about this stuff
Edit: can we keep the nasty cars to a low
Yeah…but that hubcap was still attachment to the wheel. 🤪
What is that in the second clip? :O

Fuck mot glad we don't have it in the states means more cars can live longer even if they are rusty turds.
That would suck.
Same here in Sweden.
Good thing it's illegal to be poor!

Just what the hell are those things!?
Well, that used to be the CVT belt.
And to think, they walk and drive among us?!
10:50 - Old Faithful ( Yellowstone National Park, WY )
Oil is not supposed to look like chocolate milk!
hubcap aka manhole cover. yep
That could it ... Sh.t that's not fun
LOL half of these things are or have been wrong with my car.
IT'S BEEN ALONG TIME SINCE I'VE SEEN SH!T THAT BAD.
Must have hit a hubcap made off thick hardox
More mechanical nightmare fuel 😂
11:14 not a jeep expert or anything... but I think your head gasket is done.
15:57 Ya I'd say your junk yard motor has rod knock lol
Te haorras tanto chequeandolo y manteniendolo solo veo flojera descuido en este tipo de videos. Pero igual es bueno verlos para evitar. Daños
Wonder how this people treat their cars.
Ive seen alot of these nd man if others dont know how to be a mechanic dont both trying to fix your own things unless you know what your doing ffs
Some people just shouldnt own cars
Typisch Ammis... Immer das extreme.. Autos fahren bis sie fast auseinander fallen und dann nix merken und trotzdem weiterfahren 😒..
They're too busy living their lives ;)
whu do some people even buy a car? there shoud be an iq-limit for owning and driving cars - dont need to be a genious to figure out that cars are machines,and machines needs maintenance
This is literally just a reupload of a 2 year old video. Reporting.
These must be garages in Florida
