Lots and lots of comments saying it was a bargain for a grand. It wasn’t a grand as I said in the video I showed Chris my fingers and said grand. I hope that clears it up 👍

Rob you nearly turned into Mike Brewer 😂. No risk, no reward! Keep going gents 😎

I think you may under estimate the strength of your friendship/partnership, but it made for a more entertaining video. The rapport and respect between you are a couple of the aspects which makes the channel so enjoyable. Chris'' respect for Rob was very clear when the Lamborghini was purchased and Rob is always complimentary of Chris.

Glad Chris took it so well. You’re probably best out of that one time wise.

Solid friendships last a lifetime through thick or thin, excellent video again chaps. Have a great weekend ❤

Nearly had us going there - Salvage Rebuilds could have turned into a soap opera - please never fall out - you are an incredible team with complementary abilities. Sell it to a Land Rover club.

Stop the theatricales lads!! You will never fall out as your a cracking team!!!

This is the type of video that shows what else you get up to, I love it.

You two are bonded at the him and a bit of banter is ok. Keep going 👍👍👍

I love the banter between you and Chris!

Chris wears the trousers in that relationship.😉

Naughty Rob 😂 good that Chris is such an understanding guy and atleast you can break even on it and got a video out of it too so still a win 👍

You can pick up 130 ex utility Quadtech 4 bodies fairly cheaply (between £500 - £1200) that will go straight on to that lovely galvanised chassis for a basic camper project. With the spec of the chassis, engine and other rebuilt items, even a basic camper project that needs fitting out could fetch £10k plus. Fitting a quadtech body would be less time consuming than building up the rear body. It'll drop straight on. No need to paint it - the new owner will have a blank canvas to paint it any colour they desire and fit it out to their individual needs.

You guys are absolutely solid. ‘I don’t watch the videos anyway’ ‘oh cheers’

Great video rob glad you and Chris didn’t have a bust up look forward to the next video

Dont be worried Rob,Chris will forgive you ! Such a cool and funny video Rob :D

Hello Rob & Chris. That was a bit of a roller coaster for you, Rob, but with Chris being a real gentle-man, all ends in smiles after you have un-wrapped the land-rover. I am sure that your friendship goes deeper than what you was worried about, Rob. Sometimes a "risk" has to be taken, and then find out if it is the right decission / choice , or not? Anyhow, take care you two, looking forwards to the next film. best wishes from Lincolnshire.

Glad selling the deal worked out- Chris probably right in the discussion -fantastic of both of you to generously let project to go at your cost

Glad Cris Reals Rob in from time to time Rob Was Bricking it Cris is a Gentleman with a lot of patience

I like that you don’t always get it right - makes it real.

Steady on Young Rob!! Chris is your most precious asset.

I can’t see Chris ever getting that angry to honest seems a very chilled out fella

Hi rob and Chris it is a rainy day project for winter all the best to you both and your family s

Had me worried at the start thought there was a serious fall out. Great stuff guys👍

Loved Chris's comment, 'Its a project, but not for us!' Rob you dodged one there and at least you still have a friend.

Videos like this Heli keep it real. They can't all be a winner! Thanks

So glad this ended peacefully. I think it would be fair to profit a drink or two for a finders fee. You both have class and pride in just the right portions. You should talk to Car Vertical that project might be right up their alley. Seeing Chris’s sense of humor on video is perfect. Thanks Gentlemen.

So what can we say, again this is how your business rolls and it’s good for us to see the ups & downs of the industry that you guys are in. It’s really good to see that you can review and realign each project once received, it’s real and that is what makes the channel so good. I felt your pain Rob, it wasn’t pretty but remember yours is a partnership with Chris and the Channel works so well due to the both of you. I get were Chris is coming from ref, “Long term projects” you guys do have a few right now! and the yard is looking tidier at the moment!! Another great watch, keep them coming. Thanks both. Dave.

Great video as always. But the only thing that saved you was a longer trip to get his favourite coffee 😂😂

When Chris smiled the next day I think everyone knew it was going to be fine, even though you had the fast getaway car😂. The top team have done it again!! Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged

For a minute there i half thought Chris was gonna dig a hole in the field and then put Robs boots on the wall as a trophy lol

this was the funniest video ever! rob being worried about upsetting chris! best intro ever

A bit different but eventually another example of the sound relationship that exists between you, very pleasing to see. Don't imagine there will be a shortage of interest, just like a Meccano set! Have a good weekend.

That will be snapped up Rob. Huge Landy groups out there would love to have that. Just a few weekends work for the enthusiasts.

Just goes to show how honest you guys are you cant ring the bell everytime, hope it get shifted soon

Haha. Rob was genuinely nervous hhaha and me too. Glad all went smoothly. Have a nice weekend guys. And Chris glad you tooth is ok

You would certainly live up to your name if you repair that jigsaw. A real salvage and a massive rebuild. I think if the yard was empty and the Range Rover done Chris would of been a like a kid in a sweet shop. As it is ,it may be down to Rob the salesman / parts wizard to dispose of the project. Your antics worrying about Chris,s reactions were quite hilarious 😆.

I was worried about your friendship at the beginning. Never met either of you, but that's how good your channel is. 😆

Chris at 4.50 "I don't really watch them anyway" and Robs reply "oh cheers !" Made me laugh 😂

Hello Rob and Chris,I seriously thought Chris was unhappy about the land rover,but through watching he wasn't .at least you know what parts are worth price wise.it will make a good project for a buyer.

Hi Rob and Chris all I can say is oh my god 🙏. What a great video take care both ☺️

You guys know the market, and know your vehicles. Total confidence you’ll come out of this without loosing any skin in the game. Makes the channel more interesting.

Rob you have dodged a bullet. Good job Chris had his tooth fixed and is an easy going guy. I think you need to buy him another Starbucks and a sticky bun. Have a good weekend lads 👍

Loved to see Chris's reaction; he's a sad loss to the Diplomatic Corp. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought he'd send Rob to bed without his dinner, or give him lines and a detention. Stay Safe everyone.

Very nice, brilliant video, Rob and Chris

"after I paid I thought have I made a boo boo" 😂 so hilariously relatable when it comes to buying a car 😳😳😂

No mistake there Rob . Your just being your usual self looking for projects and good content for us . If there was no LSE as a long termer than maybe 🤔 …. Still could have been worth storing up though as the value will always rise .

Great video Rob you and Chris have a great friendship. Would have loved to see Chris firing up his chainsaw when you walked in the workshop Rob 😂😁

Great video. Two great friends. One of my fave channels.

Excellent video, hilarious, you two are a smashing couple of fellas. Keep it up 😉

I would actually love to see the rebuilt of this one

Funny! Rob actually walking backwards as Chris approached for his coffee 😂. Shame you can’t do this one but I do understand. Have a great weekend U2.

Love this video and the drama at the beginning 🤣😉

It made me laugh, you backing out of the building Rob as Chris was walking toward you with the hot coffee in your hands.

Naughty Robert, Chris is a diamond geezer 🤓👍

Don’t think you’ll find much cash in this one Chris👍👍

Great video lads👍 I must admit you did look a little worried rob 😉🤣 Keep up the great work lads and I’ll look forward to the next one !

Hi Rob and Chris well that was different you won't have much trouble selling that. See you Monday thanks.

Oops, close one there Rob, hope your able to salvage your costs back, with Chris’s experience of Landies sounds like you should be okay 😂😂👍👍

Great video, That Landy is going to sell in a heart beat boys 👍

The best money you will ever spend. The experience of this is priceless and builds the friendship even further.

Great video lads, I must admit you did look a little worried rob , Cant wait unto Monday.

I’m sure rob said Chris used to watch them all. Maybe thingschanged.

I think Chris really love you buddy

shame your not going to be bolting the 130 back together, would have been interesting to watch especially when Chris used to be a landrover guy.

To be honest Rob I thought that you were going to be in the dog house when you approached Chris but thankfully your friendship with Chris is safe....for now

That was like going home to the misses after you have been a naughty boy, lol. Cheers guys

Not to worry we all have these days . what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Great content as always .

The Land Rover Series II / IIA / III were the original "Bitsa's" and the Defender continues that fine tradition. There is so much interchangeability its brilliant. When looking for a Defender the top priority is the chassis obviously as its what everything is bolted to. The next most important consideration is the front engine bulkhead as this is what all the bodywork is lined up from and the next consideration is the engine / transmission / suspension. So this one has a galvanised chassis which is a massive positive, the bulkhead looks to be in pretty good shape and the engine and gearbox has been rebuilt which is another huge positive. By the way, as long as the timing belt is done regularly, the 200TDI & 300TDI are about as bombproof as any engine out there, they are a phenomenal piece of kit and require no ECU. Also the suspension looks like new and the wheels are standard on some Defenders. With the market for Defenders being what it is for the last few years I'd say you're sitting on a £10k car, right now, as it is. Good luck with it as whoever ends up with it will be getting a hell of an incredible machine.

Hopefully you never fall out you r an amazing team

Nothing ventured, nothing gained Rob.... you won't lose on that either. At least you don't need to put 200 miles on it before selling! 👍

Great video Rob as always!

It’s the sort of purchase you make on eBay when you’ve had a few beers. It reminds me of my wife, I’d had 28 blissful years of happiness until I met her on Tinder and we got married.

Rob it's only going up in Value even if you just get it running it will double your investment and being a 130 the uses are endless glad to see Chris isn't too upset 😉

Nice one,guys!I think you'll find that vehicle a good home.I'm glad you didn't fall out over it ... I would have been a bit depressed about that.Cheers1

What a cracking video your such a good team!

Hahaha, your friendship goes a lot deeper than a car! GoodVibes

Great video guys and I got a notification this time 👍🏻

Was getting worried for a minute there when you said Chris has got the Stanley knife out.👀😂you can’t win them all. Will be nice for whoever buys it to give you some pictures and updates as they re build it. Have a great weekend 👍

I enjoy all your vids and watch the whole vid, some peoples comments make no sense and clearly are not watching it all and I don’t understand why people put negative comments on it really winds me up, they think there really something behind a screen, keep all the vids coming 👍

Every experience is an experience and becomes a part of lifes rich tapestry!

Oh, the number of times I've bought something in bad shape with great excitement and expectations... and then had buyer's regret! Luckily, they were never car-sized... I am however delighted you and Chris remain friends but to be honest, I think you two have a friendship that won't be broken.

That time again, best 3 days of the week when these are released!

if i were you rob, i would consult chris on every purchase from now on, that was a bit close for comfort i reckon, he put a brave face on, but not best pleased the way i saw it. your saving grace is that it is a 130 model, always wanted for special builds, so financially you have dragged yourself out of the doo-doo keep up the good work, + be nice to chris...

Hi lads great video really is a long term project but you will not lose any money, unlucky Rob

Didn’t realise it arrived vinyl wrapped !!

Hire an apprentice and have them put it back together - it's a Land Rover it's basically lego with an oil leak.

Yes I think you did the right thing. It is a great base for a camper, with the long wheel base

Good lord Rob Don't do that again. The last thing we need is for you guys to fall out. Good to see it all panned out but that first part of the video nearly gave me a heart attack. You guys are a breath of fresh air to the trade. Honest ,genuine and kind hearted. very very rare in this day and age.

That's a perfect base for an expedition camper, but I do have to agree with Chris - you do need to get some of the other projects out of the door first.

Funniest start to a video in a long time🙈🤣I think even if Chris wasn't impressed he'd be professional about it but I do find it odd that you don't buy the cars jointly as Chris would surely have a massive input with his knowledge but if its how you do it then all good,I'm sure you will get your money back by the sounds of it,cheers guys👍
