Tyler is going to show up to see the wizard and the shop will be closed. "Thanks for your business. Retired early"

You know you have a problem when you drive into your mechanic’s full 20 bay shop and 3/4s of the car in there are yours!

I've just realised the wizard makes a living solely off working on you hooptie fleet

Tyler, I think the Wizard is probably the nicest guy - in the world. He patiently and knowledgeably looks over your car while you savour the aroma emanating from the leather cover of the owner's manual - and he is polite enough not to take a second glance. Most mechanics I know prefer taking sharp intakes of breath through their teeth, while shaking their heads from side to side and saying "that's gonna cost ya" .

The Lucas motto: "Get home before dark." Lucas is the patent holder for the short circuit. Lucas - Inventor of the first intermittent wiper. Lucas - Inventor of the self-dimming headlamp. The three position Lucas switch - Dim, Flicker and Off. The Original Anti-Theft Device - Lucas Electrics. Lucas is an acronym for Loose Unsoldered Connections and Splices

Broke. James Broke.

We're off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of cars.

The car wizard is worth his weight in gold!

"Why do the British drink warm beer?" "Because Lucas make fridges, too."

worked at a honda dealer, had a odyssey drainnig battery and alarm going of. radio didnt work. took radio out and its cd player was stuffed full of change like a piggy bank causing short.

The db7 still is a very beautiful car compared to others from that period

That transmission mount plate looks identical to the one used in a Jaguar XJ-S. If the mount itself IS fluid filled and has failed it might be cheaper and more reliable to replace it with the mount used in the XJ-S, which is basically a large spring a two big washers. It's going to be a lot cheaper than the correct part (yes, they are easily available brand new, and I would imagine it would be very easy to get a used one from a Jag breaker) and I can't imagine it is going to make the car noticeably less refined as an XJ-S is still a very refined car...

Beautiful car. Not too many issues considering it's age and all. Also, a pro tip for Wizard. On cars such as that with a lot of electronics, sometimes the modules fail to turn off, and when you disconnect the battery terminal to insert your ammeter in between, the modules reset when you connect them and will sometimes make the issue intermittent. Personally, I'd tell him to use an inductive amperage clamp around the battery cable, as it's non intrusive, and it won't cause anything to be "reset" by disconnecting any cables. Overall, love what you're doing. Keep up the good work.

I literally was jumping up and down when I saw there was a new upload.. Hoovie brings out the inner child

It isn't a hoovie garage video without something being broken with a car lol 😂

There's a DB7 Vantage Volante V12 with a manual shift on Autotrader in Fullerton, California for $18,500. It's been there for months.

You make owning one of these seem like a perfectly reasonable idea. Please STOP !! I’m starting to work up the paperwork for a loan already 😭😭 waaaaaaaa...

You gotta remove that front lisece plate holder... It really ruins one of the best looking car-fronts ever designed.

That gear stick is for your lady friend 😁

Hoovie your videos are very entertaining! I love how you have developed over the past year or so!

1:57 - missed a perfect opportunity to say "we're off to see the Wizard, the wonderful wizard of cars"

One day the wizard will come to you and say: "Hoovie...The bill...its half a million now"

Nice car Hoovie, and the Wizard is the man , it’s good to have a guy like that in your corner . The wizards channel is good too

New Hoovies garage can't click fast enough my new favorite personality I watch Doug now and think how boring I miss Tyler. Keep up the great work

Have you thought about letting the Wizard inspect your car first BEFORE you buy it?

Does the Car Wizard have kids? If so then Hoovie will be putting them through college. 😁

Great video Tyler!

I really like that here is someone who fixing Old beauty cars between buying new “supercars” 😁😁👌🏻

Just watched a couple episodes of 'Wheeler Dealers' one with a DB7 and the other with XK. (Very similar cars) they both had the identical issues that you. The power steering was a pain as the bolts are very difficult to get off the intercooler. Worth a watch as it shows how to sort it out.

Strangest shaped seats in a sports car...

Hoovies. You came to the game with that video and car. Keep up the good work.

Nice to see you get a win!!! It's a lovely car and in that green as well.

I'm in love with this music 😏 😂

U need to have the wizard equip the car with pop up fenders with machine guns, and oil to squirt out the back bumper with a flip up license place !

Another great video definitely my favorite Channel on KZfaq

Man I love this channel

Everything wrong with my Aston Martin DB7... Shows entire car

Looks like the wizard’s kids are going to college, hoovie’s... not so much!

I'm so glad there are no horrible surprises! I also hope you can talk about your RR! Have a great Thanksgiving!

I subscribed to Car Wizard. I immediately learned something useful about a Datsun. I want a Datsun now.

angry r2d2 is not angry he looks more frightened , like''oh noo it's hoovi again'' :)

Lucas, the prince of darkness, the lord of smoke

Well, I guess you nail it again, Tyler. Beautifull jaw dropping car. Great buy

Every time Hoovie puts one of his hoopties up on the lift it is a roll of the dice.

next video title: the worlds cheapest buggati veiron ( it needs a new engine, trasmision)

As far as i know James Bond never drove the DB7. However Johnny English did!

Sweet ride dude!

Wizard and Hoovie. best car double act on youtube!

Looks like the Wizard (David Long) is getting a new house just for the labor bills!

Serious question: Aside from the Bentley that was a complete disaster, do you ever request a pre-purchase-inspection on any of the cars you buy for your fleet? It would seem like a pre-purchase-inspection from the wizard might save you from getting too far in over what you paid.

That is a seriously beautiful car. So elegant. You did good there Tyler

My favorite in your garage so far! I hope you will replace the headlights and the grill with newer stuff

8:59 famous last words.

"Goes up and down in a inappropriate manner" :)

That Db7 really is beautiful !

Love the low stance and those great rear haunches.

That F-150 in the background is a beaut 👌 😂

That old British reliability...wait, that’s right they made Jaguar. 🤔

We’re off to see the wizard! The wonderful wizard of cars!

Well done on your purchase and diagnosing some easy fix faults! Eye Spy two nice cars in the background - the Mercedes and the Corvette!

"what is reliability?!" a Aston martin owner says.and a land rover answers"it is when a car breaks down and you see it on the side of the road stopd with hazards (if they work) like all of my land rovers and more, land rovers....."

The money he spend on these shits....if he had saved them all he might have a huracan today😂😂😂😂😂😂

2:40 "And my McLaren you figured out..." LOL thanks for that one Tyler! Love that '80s steering wheel.

Thank you for the video.

Nice XK8! I want one of those

DB7 had American ford electronics sub contracted to the Italians. A rare case of not a Lucas fault :D

Lucas... The Prince Of Darkness... I use clear tubing that I buy at a big box store on the end of my flashlights... but it so that it is tight cut and heat it and slide it on.... best bite guard going...

Hoovie is quickly becoming the king of 80s and 90s supercars

5 amp fuse for a head unit? Derp.

McLaren update??

One thing that I like about hooves garage is that he's showing you that no matter how much a car cost at the end of the day all cars are the same. Don't be afraid to get your dream car if it needs a little work.

I had one in 98’ in Forest Green a lighter colour but also tan upholstery. My first Aston and an easy transition from the XJS I had prior, given the same mechanics. It was a turning point in Aston’s survival and rebirth. The V12, which I then had, was an appreciably better car. Was down at the Bloxham factory to see it being built, in the same Tom Walkinshaw founded shed that built the XJ220. Still great days, then, before the big corporate attitude fully took over. The DB7 bodies, which are galvanised, were built by Vickers engineering for Aston, and delivered as a virtually complete shell to Bloxham. Vickers of course was a company with a great British engineering heritage too, from airplanes to munitions, ships and tanks. It disappeared in a buy-out by Rolls-Royce in 1999. Good luck with your DB7 and enjoy...I loved them.

was not expecting 25K. I wouldn't have thought mid 90's British unreliability would be much more than 12k.

Are you gonna sell this to tavarish once youre done with it?he seems to enjoy your leftovers lol

Love it and great job on the car

I like that c3 in the background!

Please get a mic for your mechanic, can't hear a word he says.

shouldn't be a problem fixing with all that ad revenue money on this video - 4 ads for an 11 minute video and they are double ads, but hey Christmas is coming so...

Nice car Hoovie!

The Car Wizard gets so much solid advertising from these videos his business is clearly off the hook. He will need another building soon!

We do make some of the best cars in the world 🇬🇧

I'm not first, but I'm cooler than the first guy.

Would love to see more videos of you and Wizard fixing your cars

Nice smooth jazz !

*Laughs in Swedish quality*

Let's throw things back a decade: FIRST

Over half a million subscribers and channel still not verified...love it !

i just bought this very same car. thanks for fixing the a/c! 😁

You spend $25k for that POS?!

A British automobile that has issues........ I'm shocked!

That's some talent! Buying things

Like this kind of video. Please don't forget to update after repair!!

25K? you could have gotten a Maserati for 5 grand. Neither seems like a good idea. But then again, you're Hoovie… when have you ever made a rational decision? lmao

Tyler is a treasure to the world!

That GM wagon in the far background looks pretty sweet!

Beautiful car. I'd certainly like to own one, one day and in green too with the tan interiour. I actually did read your article for this one!

We're off to see the Wizard! The wonderful Wizard of cars!

I love that Aston Martin, the color, style, and definitely the supercharged 6 in it. Just an all out nice car.

Looks like you got a decent deal on that DB7! Good going!

I once had a Suzuki XL7 that kept draining the battery. Turns out it was the dvd player that was incorrectly wired, both the main circuit and switching circuit were connected to the battery power instead of having the switching circuit connected to the accessory or run circuit, so if it wasn't manually turned off, it could be still running even when the screen was folded up. Rewiring it fixed that problem. Took two trips to the dealer under warranty to figure it out 😂.
