What can I say. Brilliant video. Chris, Rob you guys have no idea how much your videos lift my spirits. This time of the year is especially hard for me, as an ex Army infantryman of many years rememberance brings mixed memories and emotions. But your videos since I've been a subscriber has helped no end. Thank you so much. I'm sorry for such a long comment. But wanted to say thanks.
These are fab videos. Especially where in the trade. Or not. YT is somewhat ace in sorting modern heads out.
Very kind of you bud thank you and your welcome 👍
Thank you for your service.
Bless you John, thank you for your service mate, and all the best.
sorting the geezer out with a grand was very kind, i was thinking a monkey maybe?. No b post damage and all doors and panels in colour found in 24hours, good things happen to good people! ....u deserved that touch boys!
I recently bought a 2016 VW Passat estate highline GT 2.0TDI 150bhp. Blue on black 1/2 leather half alcantara, nice spec. It’s had a full ceramic coating, detachable tow bar fitted front and rear VW winter mats, VW boot liner and VW mud flaps. I’m absolutely made up with the car perfect family car for me. Much better than an SUV as the boot is twice the size of any comparable SUV.
Sounds a lovely car John.
😎😷👍
@@vernonmatthews181 cheers Vernon I put a lot of thought into the type of car I wanted because it was a big commitment for me.
@@JMc.D Glad your impressed, sensible family motoring with the ease of parking, vs the SUV.😊👍
For me I always go for an Estate over an SUV unless it's full size and needed for a very specific reason like towing then I'd get a Discovery. I've been delighted with my Saab, Audi, Volvo and now Mercedes "long roofs" yours sounds great!
The chap was very lucky that the insurers didn't void his insurance, regarding the illegal tints on the front door windows.
'Euston, we have a problem'! Nice video Rob.
Rob,4 hours to drive to Cannock versus 4 hours train and hanging around time plus taxing and insuring the car,i would have gone in the truck,very nice car cant wait for the next vid.
Interested to see the insurer paid out for an illegal tint.
To the rest of the world: this car is totaled out and not worth worrying about. To Rob and Chris: it is a car that "looks very, very nice". Viva la difference!!
😂
Most people could fix this it’s not to bad
@@GARAGESXERO perhaps, but I don't think they knew the door pillar was "clean" until they took the doors off.
I know garages have to use new parts. But scrapping that car is outrageous
I’m having that. Absolutely. That’s mine. My lads needs a new car and he loves VAG. And he’s gonna be a dad in January. What a perfect car.
Always buy a return ticket when going on the train to look at cars! I’ve learned the hard way 👍 also- we don’t buy cars from Birmingham or Luton!
I can guess why.
drove from london to germany in a 3.0 24v senator, pressed down on the drivers side window to show me passport, never went back up the whole journey, at night in autumn, 200kmh on the autobahn got proper frozen LOL
"Not allowed in the garage because I don't have the proper safety gear" - I didn't see the guys dog ( 18:16 ) wearing steel-toe-caps nor a hi-vis :D
These passats are awesome car, i have owned 2 of them. One got totaled this summer and the second one is my current daily driver. Total of 90 000km driven in these cars and still not tired of it
That vid was a standard length but only felt like a 5 minute video. I think because we were all waiting for it we were itching and just didn’t seem very long at all. Can we get some longer videos or even maybe a live stream of a repair sometime rob and Chris?
It wouldn't be an SRUK train collection caper without Rob getting lost or muddled up with where he's going lol 😆
What a great result. Chris can work his magic on the rear quarter and bolt the other bits on, a bit of paint and all ready to be sold. What a great car, I bet it goes very well and sticks like you know what to a blanket :-)
😆😆🙊👍
It goes to show what looks bad on the outside isn’t always bad, undo a few nuts and bolts source the replacements and you’re on the road again, Rob took a gamble obviously he’s looked it over and crossed his fingers, great decision to buy it and definitely once fully repaired a lovely car for someone, with Chris and Rob sorting it out this will be an amazing car, sold within seconds when it goes on Instagram.
Rob you are a great wheeler dealer,looking forward to see the end result of this video.
You landed on your feet with this one. I cannot believe that this car was given a category S rating. The vehicle structure is undamaged and what damage was left when the doors were removed is cosmetic.
You’ve got a right result on that Rob really nice car 👍👌
I’m from Cannock from the make of the truck I can guess where this bump happened it’s a right accident black spot. And if all your viewers around here contacted you after they had a bump in this particular place you would never be short of salvage! Great video lovely to see you cracking on with it!
That car should have factory rear tints anyway, they are only 25% so hes had more tint added to the rears to make it darker, you can remove the rear tint and reveal the standard tint.
Edit: you can tell by the rear window, if you can see the brown lines from the rear window defroster it doesnt have factory tints, If you cant see them then it does, rewatching the video I'd say hes had the already factory tints re tinted.
This was one of them videos what just wasn’t long enough I could’ve watch this for an hour !
Cracking result on sourcing parts
Goes to show how quick they are today to write off things, a proper look at that car and it should have been repaired. What a beauty.
@@dannytipple1232 very true marra.
Can't wait to see you n Chris work your magic on this VW👍 Going to make great content! Rib we need to have a chat about your sense of direction 😂
#funfact - There's a place called Cannock Chase. When I was in the UK quite a few years ago I was riding an old Yamaha YZ 250 D, tearing up Cannock Chase. That was until Staffordshire Police turned up and told me off. I had to push my bike back to my Cousin's trailer. We ended up at a pub.
Stan Collymore knows all about Cannock Chase 🤣🤣🤣
@@ianclare5721 lolol... The great dogging debacle!
Some of the best car based content on CZcams.
Plus it's a UK channel. Keep up the good work!
Brilliant video I work as a tech in a VW dealer mate this motor is rare as, lovely and effortless to drive. Bringing a banging motor back from the dead. Rob and Chris the doctors at work again
That VW Passat looks very optimistic with doors & front guard from "German Express".
Looks a satisfactory candidate for a quick turnaround.
Look forward to seeing the balance of reassembly.
Thanks for taking the time to explain that you are now off to a new adventure before completing the VW.
😎😷👍
Surprised the insurance paid out if there were illegal tints on the front side windows
Thanks for another great video. That’s a lovely car. When the guy who sold it to you sees your finished job I wonder if he’ll fancy buying it back! What a smasher for someone.
I was counting down the minutes for this video to go live. Thanks!
Same here mate. These vids are my daily kicks
We have a 2014 R-Line Touareg. Lovely spec car and a very comfortable drive. VW do make a good car. I think a pretty quick turnaround for you both.
It was good that you put it on slow motion when Chris was removing the doors n stuff. I know it might have look speeded up to the untrained eye but some of us know better. Chris is a wizard
Chris is bloody fast , brilliant worker to
Loved this one! Wife absolutely loves her Passat B7 (North American variant). I recently went home to the UK and picked up a full set of door actuators for her car since it was cheaper, and I wanted the European better quality actuators. They fit like a glove and work great. Definitely prefer the look of the UK/European Passats over the North American ones I see out here
My dream car, love how they look and how they drive I love the interior. Another awesome video as per normal
Are you going to give the seller first dibs once it’s finished seeing as it’s his dream car? They are quite rare those biturbo 4x4’s
Fantastic teamwork, thanks guys.
Who wished they had Chris’s energy. I can buy them ( just about ) … sell them. Monkey can sell them right money. Cannot fix them for toffee. Though. That 2 quid extra leaving from Euston tho !!!!! Outrageous error Chris. I’ve had about 3-4 blond moments this year. Been Cass instead Leeds. Sheff instead Birmingham. I’ve also driven a windowless car 3.5 hours. Still cannot fix em. Wish I could.
I think Rob should only be allowed to go out in Kent and Essex unaccompanied.
@@mickc7388 great one. Yeh. . Free Rob. Let Rob roam.
@@mickc7388 lol
Nice to know someone else finds railway travel and stations as confusing as i do :)
I love this - My new Wheeler Dealers
👍
Wife has a 2018 Passat 2.0 GT Petrol 220bhp. Agree its a very smooth drive.
Rob finds out that there is life north of Watford!
Great video guys! The enthusiasm is infectious. I think you have done really well on this one and hopefully will be a quick turn around!!
That car will look great
Thanks Josh, you have provided many viewers with some great content 👍🏻😎
Miss Daisy didn’t drive 🤣🤣. She was driven. 🤣🤣🤣🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍👍👍👍
She did drive herself but after she had a mishap and drove through het neighbour’s fence Dan Akroyd decided to hire a chauffeur for her against her will. She eventually warmed to the chauffeur and they became good friends. Rob’s driving isn’t that bad, most of the cars are damaged before he gets them.
You two always look as though you're having such a good time, you're lucky to have a job you enjoy. Another great SRUK video; ok it's a nice car and all (and I'm genuinely interested in the repair) but your positivity and enthusiasm are what keep me coming back.
The owner could have bought 2 doors and a fender and fixed it over a weekend- would have had his car back and a pocket full of insurance cash.
Hj Rob and Chris what a great video and what a lovely car thank you take care both, 😀
Stunned at what gets written off, love they way you guys fuss over a tiny tiny pin dent when the whole side will look like new regardless 🤣
wow Rob what a stroke of luck getting them doors and wing in the same colour and Chris make it look so easy when you see him stripping cars that's going to be one amazing car for someone when it's all finished and can't wait to see more keep them coming guys 💯💯💯👍👍👍👍
Welvome to Cannock 🖐
Nice car and nice of the guy to reach out to you and great you gave him an extra grand on top.
No way you came to Cannock , I live 2 mins round the corner 🤣😂
Jammy or what ???
What I absolutely love about you guys is your honesty and the seamless way you work together. A fait share of work and waffle - no names no pack drill. Long may it continue !
I love it when you come out with words like comftaballist.
Great result finding those bits in colour, I'm sure Chris will get it knocked out in no time👍👍
Hi rob, you give me a good laugh with your travels, please don’t change direction ( forgive the pun) and start a travel vlog you’ll get lost coming out of your drive 😇, great post and a a nice gesture giving you first dibs on it,
With the stuff you have repaired and are repairing i could tell this would be a walk in the park for you guys!
You've lucked out again there Rob, I'm sure if you fell out of your bedroom window you would go up 😄. Another cracking video , cheers boys.
Dropped lucky with the door pillow,and with the doors and wing.My mate has got 1 lovely motors,saves a lot of work
Euston, we have a problem... !
Lol
You guys need a tv programme so interesting how you turn cars around keep up the good work lads
Makes you wonder if the insurance assessors know what they are on about!
Brilliant guys. I’ve had 2 vw Sharans in the last 3 years (long story lol) vw only tint glass from B post back and DSG is the way to go 👍👍
Insurance company: its a write off. Chris: hold my beer
Lol
It looks as though you have landed on your feet once more with this one, and no parachute required! It looks like a lovely project car for you two with just a bit of fettling required, all in a day's work for Chris I am sure, have a great weekend.
What a throw away world we live in today. How can any insurance company wright off a car with that sort of damage. I makes a mockery of being good to the environment , scratch it and chuck it in the bin!!!
It’s not going in the bin though
Well done Rob, nice job.
You need to play monopoly this Christmas.......get to know your rail stations 😉
Has the dog got steel toecaps
Great result on finding all them parts in the right colours and condition. Looks forward to seeing the next video 👍
I do like a passat. It about the only big german car you can drive without looking like your selling weed. Does make you wonder why insurance cost so much when they cat s on that damage.
Nice project , good to see Chris back .
Those front tints look illegally dark.
They do indeed.
It's so good to see the skills both of you have work together in such a complimentary way. Great video as usual 👍.
Them front tints illegal Rob?
I should wait till i've watched the whole video
i just love the enthusiasm these guys have.
What a shame for so much damage to a lovely spec car
This will be a nice little fix up and flip ! Looking forward to the fitting / painting / pricing ! 👍🇨🇦
Typical Cannock car with illegal tints, probably why it got in accident in the first place!
That car is going to be a beautiful looker there's going to be a long list of people wanting that for sure cheers guys
nice bit a luck on those doors
U and Chris never let us down good content keep it up 👍
Eleven Thousand views in less than 2 hours! Not just me who loves dinner with Rob & Chris then!!
It’s on 30k it just takes ages to update 👍
Brilliant.. what a great result with the doors and wing
Is there any way of putting a bid in for this, when it comes available without having an Instagram? Cheers
Sorry bud we won't be taking bids.
👍
that's brilliant. love these cars
and the shape . can't wait to see it all finished and shining again. 🙂
Chris will be disappointed he can't rebuild the old doors.😄
What an absolute beautiful passat !!
Well done guys yet again on an absolute amazing video, good content, love to see this one finished quickly and sold on !!
If you live in Wolverhampton and win the lottery, you move to Cannock.
These VWs have solid B pillars, my brothers mk7 golf had two doors damaged and had them replaced and drives like new. The wiring might be annoying to get out the door but the doors are so easy to replace its mad. Also they are speccy cars adaptive cruise control etc.
Why would an insurance company write this off? I thought a write off is more to repair than it's worth & no way this is? Or am I wrong?
I think the insurance companies can determine it as a write off anywhere from 50% of the value up,which is easy to get to when using genuine oem new parts in their estimate.
Hi Rob and Chris, liking this one guy's, brilliant car, good video story. Cheers, Alex.
This is the best car channel on CZcams two experts on car repairs, I would buy a car from them with no worries good luck to you both and keep well.
Busy busy boys, but what lovely car. Looking forward to following this to the end.
Lorry didn't take him out. He pulled out in front of the lorry by the looks of it.
Nice Car .. can we have a masterclass from Chris on that panel repair
