Yeah Ford fans are pretty daft when it comes to what value they attach to their cars and are prepared to pay.

Just started watching today. Good lord you would have to be positive to get anywhere with that. Thoroughly enjoying.Gavster wrote: Fri Nov 11, 2022 11:14 am True, he could have gone and bought this Murky for £150k and it would have been a boring "I just bought a lambo" 5 min vid. The fun of Mat's videos are in the unexpected twists in the journey and the skill he has for storytelling, with a really positive energy, he doesn't let anything get him down (on camera, at least).

Would be rude not to post it… I wonder if that’s the embargo lifted now that Europeans are getting their cars delivered.

Sh does fill out those yoga pants rather nicely!
If you get all wobbly-lipped about the opinion of Internet strangers, maybe it's time to take a bath with the toaster as you'll never amount to sh1t anyway.

Someone posted a first-gen Focus RS on Twitter last week, with 21 miles on it, looking for 80-95K...Swervin_Mervin wrote: Sat Nov 12, 2022 12:21 pm Yeah Ford fans are pretty daft when it comes to what value they attach to their cars and are prepared to pay.

Particularly good one to start this Rufford video off:
Re: Decent car YouTubes
“They gave up on the car and left it”. What did they expect them do do, it’s not going to magically spring into life! I’m assuming insurance wouldn’t pay out in these situations?
Re: Decent car YouTubes
That car is his livelihood, total tool.
Re: Decent car YouTubes
That, and he’s a taxi driver so you would assume he knows the area!

If only there was some sort of handy marker to let you see how deep the water was before driving into it

Re: Decent car YouTubes
The next one with the X3 is good too. Stupid husband drowns the car and just tries to stay dry gurning like the imbecile he is whilst the wife immediately gets out, gets the child out and then starts pushing by herself.
Some people have no shame.

How about not having a sig at all?
Re: Decent car YouTubes
What's the deal with insurance in these cases? I'm sure I've read about payout(s) when cars have got flooded, but I'm wondering what exemptions insurance companies might rely on to get off paying out.

Re: Decent car YouTubes
It’s not like they’ve been fought in a sudden flash flood like my other half was, they intentionally driven into what is clearly marked as being deep water. I doubt they’ll get paid out.Simon wrote: Thu Nov 24, 2022 8:28 pm What's the deal with insurance in these cases?

Re: Decent car YouTubes
Maybe someone who runs this forum could help with his flood experience…
Re: Decent car YouTubes
They may have deliberately driven in, but they didn't deliberately flood them, if you see the difference?Zonda_ wrote: Thu Nov 24, 2022 8:31 pmIt’s not like they’ve been fought in a sudden flash flood like my other half was, they intentionally driven into what is clearly marked as being deep water.

Anyway, they should've called this episode 'Rufford Ford - Boat Edition'.

No idea who that is, Simon.Jobbo wrote: Thu Nov 24, 2022 8:34 pm Maybe someone who runs this forum could help with his flood experience…
I do however have a friend who drove his car into deep water, and was subsequently paid without question. Those puddles just jump out of nowhere, etc.
Re: Decent car YouTubes
Yes but if you drive into water that is clearly marked as being 3ft deep there’s a strong chance it’s going to flood! I think am insurance company would put that down as being driver choice.Simon wrote: Thu Nov 24, 2022 8:36 pmThey may have deliberately driven in, but they didn't deliberately flood them, if you see the difference?Zonda_ wrote: Thu Nov 24, 2022 8:31 pmIt’s not like they’ve been fought in a sudden flash flood like my other half was, they intentionally driven into what is clearly marked as being deep water.
