I think the bigger sticker is justified, you saved the car from the scrapyard.

Agreed. Should be covering the entire back window. Or roof.

Loving the bonus wiper linkage! That's fascinating. Had no idea it worked like that. Have loved watching your time with hashtag Pass the Picasso. I still don't understand the Dyno blip when you compared it with my Berlingo...

I hope this old bus is kept going. It would be great to see it rack up a million. True testiment to what is possible with proper care and maintenance that today's throw away society has clearly forgotten! Well done for doing your bit

Big sticker for the big welding job. You saved the car from the scrap yard with several hundred pounds worth of welding.

Love how you masked the door to paint the sill, then simply opened the door to clean off the overspray that would have missed the door if you'd first opened the door!

"Have to ask his mrs... see which works" 😂😂

It needs a "More Powerful Than a Berlingo" sticker. I am no longer complicit, you wiped off the smoke streaks 😞 The person that designed that wiper linkage deserves a medal. The story just goes on and it's been a real pleasure watching this part of it. Thank you.

@2:14 to 3:13 The way you try to explain yourself is hilarious. At the end of the day, you were the one who saved #PassThePicasso, and made it live again. You definitely deserve a big sticker.

loving learning more about Pass's history and slowly answering some of my questions about why it drives so well and if it really is the original engine and gearbox...

Just my type of comedy, its like me making youtube videos but i get to watch it instead with a cuppa tea 😝

That wiper mechanism is genius !

Big welding job equals large sticker, love the "masking"up for the spray job, 👌

Thank you for looking after it. Here by me in South Africa it will last longer I live in a dry place not at the sea.

I had to do something pretty similar to the little black box switching on the cold start procedure when hot for my range rover p38. It's a common problem with electronically controlled diesel engines from that area. The fuel injection pump wears just a little bit and the timing is no longer right for semi hot startup. (not cold, but still not at optimal running temps) You can readjust the pump, but it's a lot less work to just wire something up. And it will last longer than the "proper fix".

No issues with my membership money going on #passthepicasso have really enjoyed watching the videos of your time with the Picasso.

I'm glad that you did the welding, and that you like the engine cover mount "hack"(I think I mentioned it with ref. my old 406?).

I have a great idea! Why not do 'pass the SM'? Numerous other KZreadrs could have your SM doing bugger all in their garages too! I can see it next to Hubnut's 'Giselle' already. 😂

Very much enjoyed your impression of Zippy from Rainbow.

I think that given all the work you have done to it to keep it on the road, you deserve a larger-than-average sticker! I hope it makes at least 1M km.

Great content again. Look forward to the next.

Nice that you patched it up and made it safer.!

Great work

Fantastic work on this amazing old car. Purely because following this cars story and watching your amazing efforts and comical explanations this has attracted me to subscribe to your channel.

Big welding on your time and money, big sticker. I like that car.

In the southern parts of Australia, there is a saying the goes along the line “Go big or Go home!” We feel your sticker is modest 😊

Nicely done, now continue with Clement, please😂❤

No complaints about my membership money going into you keeping this car alive. I'd like to see it hit a million miles someday. Fingers crossed on that!

Another quality video mate, cheers. 👍

Great video again, Love the wiper motor arms action

We cannot believe the adenoid department of the social media police hadn’t noticed the tyres… Assume the milometer goes to 999999? If so, we await the 1 million ‘round the clock.’

Thought you had already left your mark on it with the great welding

Myself, I like this car - friends who helped run a dive club had one 20 years back and took it all over Britain, often laden with dive cylinders and dive kit for trainees. It was always a bit of a mess inside but they loved it enormously and were always praising it to the skies. Memories of sheltering inside it one day during a cloudburst near a beach somewhere!

Sounds like an opportunity for Michelin to get a bit of free publicity by supplying 5 of their high mileage tyres FOC... Another reason to use Total oil - it's French. If Vice Grip Garage can use Shell Rotella diesel in old American V8's I don't see a problem....

Sticker size is fine. You did afterall do lots of work on the #passthepicasso

Tempted to get my 2003 Picasso 2.0 hdi back on the road. 'Mothballed' it in 2017. Last started it about 4 years ago. Only 153,000 miles on the clock.

Yay a shout out for my car 😂 my Standard 10 is due an oil change too.

Just seen a couple of videos from Morsels and Motors about this car before Hubnut got it…. As well as a good clean and fix of snapped plastic bits (mostly the passenger mirror) there was a general lube of sticky things and an air and cabin filter change. The oil was changed about 10 months ago when the sump plug / oil pan was helicoiled. Oh and he sprayed the rusty sill to hide all the bad bits that you found and fixed. It’s had quite a bit of overdue attention from the last 3 custodians.

Sticker size relates to actual beneficial work carried out. Ian bless him tries hard achieves only minor improvements 😂

Regal Rich, car saviour extraordinaire, you deserve the biggest sticker ... if you were a bit older you could blame inches to cm confusion for the larger than expected size!

Takes Quartz Ineo ECS 5-30. Which is diesel spec oil other than that I think the one you put in is just fine assuming it is going to be changed at the right interval or earlier which I assume that it will.

Dont worry. The sticker is really subtle 😄

On to the next custodian for the next temporary owner of the high milage Picasso the mileage is equal to going to the moon and back

Still a few Picasso's knocking about. Seems to have fared better than the C5. If I were looking for a potential future classic would probably be a C5! Regret scrapping mine now. Amazingly that was ten years ago now.

I had one of these bad boy cars it was ace! I ran it upto 164k and let it go.......i regret it now. I got through 2 harmonic dampers on it and apart from wear and tear items that was it

Thats no wiper linkage, thats the Citroen patent apprentice finger remover! (patent pending)

I would like to see this visit Richard Tipper

Yours is definitely bigger than hubnut's perhaps you could both have a duel at dawn to make it interesting feather dusters tiddlywinks or one legged race perhaps 😂😮

NOOO PLEASE GET A SAXO

Agent smith you sir are very ❤clever

I had a Standard 8 with a 10 engine. Can't remember what angle the oil filter was on at.

Rich - stop fussing about the sticker, you more than anyone else have stopped that car being a flattened piece of metal like the vehicle that hangs from the wall in the museum shop at Aulnay-sous-Bois!

I've become quite fond of the ole git. The car aswell

You can try and justify it all you like but it’s obvious that you have fallen deeply and irrevocably in love with the plucky survivor and you chose to lavish Total love on it!😂

What’s your thoughts on engine flush additives before an oil change please. Never done one but been tempted for a long term diesel keeper. I service it every 6000 miles so may not be warranted.

whoever gets it next better remap it!!!

Clearly thinking you're bigger than Hubnut with that sticker 😂 2:48
