Good on you for rescuing Bella what a beautiful dog and a perfect location for her to enjoy. Yes please do help the dog rescue centre with some financial assistance, a great idea.

Bella is a beautiful dog, glad she’s found her forever home 👍🏻. Supporting animal charities is soo important they do struggle against bigger charities. You’ll be doing a great thing there James 👍🏻

James n family thank you for rescuing Bella I am sure her life now is going to be what a dog deserves 😊 great to have you back with lots of content 👍

Your a top man James for giving Bella a loving home and to also be giving money to canine focus and the food bank which are two very important places especially in the current state of affairs, I'm sure they will really appreciate your generosity.

Nice one for getting a rescue dog and all your charitable work as well. That's a lovely dog and I can see you are going to love her and look after her and she is going to have a happy life with you. 👍👍👍

Absolutely gorgeous and glad she’s gone to someone who can give her a great forever home! We always rescue as there’s so many dogs out there in situations they never asked to be in that just want a home so fully agree with the support! Unrelated to dogs, next time you swap cameras might be worth looking at something like an insta360 go 3 - it’s a little action cam like a go pro etc but it has things like its magnetic, has a pendant and a hat clip adapter etc. Can get you hands free without having to have a tripod etc. I’ve seen some other KZfaqrs use the hat clip option when driving around to give a “what they are seeing” point of view. As always keep up the great work, really enjoy watching your content 😇

You should absolutely donate some of the Camry money to the dog rescue centre, animals need our support 🙏 nice to meet Bella ❤

100% support both charities. Bella looks right at home ❤

So much stock now! Great result with the raffle and a brilliant idea to donate some of the extra proceeds to the dog charity. Cracking charity total to date too.

a bit late with my comment but thankyou James and welcome back ,a great update and a lot of stock thatll soon go once prepared,,, Bella has found a loving and caring family/home,shes one of the lucky ones,your a decent man James,take care and have a good weekend,,👌👏

Great video James, sorry I've not watched for a few week so I'm catching up. Like the Panda 4x4, the focus estate (will look better with the original alloys imo) and the Merc estate. So pleased you got Bella, she's beautiful and you sound very happy with her.

I'm warming to these 70's pre-rubber bumper MGB's....but MX5 powered?! Can't wait for the video. 👍

James that Vitara, you could make that rear quarter look a lot better using a heat gun and some kind of suction, even a bog plunger can work, but leave it in the sun for an hour or so then heat the crease then pull the dent out with a plunger of some sort, it wont be perfect but itll be better and not cost you anything . good luck mate

What an update chops ! Your very very busy ! Bella looks quality!

Well done to you Sir, you are a good man

Vauxhall Adams had odd trim level names. I think they were Jam, Slam and Glam. Not sure which order they came in but I'd imagine Glam must have been top. Pandas always seem to do well. I'm intrigued by the Getz too. Would be great to see the Chevvy Spark get sold too

4:42 best way to scratch up the door & handle, grasping the handle with a bunch of keys in hand.

its a little 2 cylinder, proper 4 wheel drive ! i nearly spat my beer out !

Bella is gorgeous - quite clearly there needs to be a car auction for that rescue centre James - reward for the work they do

Saw a Vauxhall Adam this week, first one I'd seen for ages & I thought at the time how well it had stood up. Looks like it could've come out today. That Panda though 🎉 Bella's gorgeous ❤ I'd like 5 minutes alone with her previous owner 👊

That Clio is a 899cc 3 cylinder turbo, same engine you get in a Dacia Sandero 😉

James i think that 4x4 would turn out really nice as you say worth the work,will sell fast,reguard,s james.

Great video chops, you need another pair of hands! Sooo many cars. Cheers

I watch for the cars, but I rescue dogs. They rescue us, I have 3 a 14v year ald gsd rescued from Birmingham, a young lady whom did the right thing realising she couldn't cope, that was 12.5 years ago. I have a blind gsd from Romania, and a Malinois from Bosnia. Just on my way to bed. Going on a long trip down from Bradford in the german shepherd dog rescue van to Milton Keynes tomorrow morning, give me a smile if you see me. Ford transit 18 plate vinyl wrapped with a big german shepherd smiling bat you. Excellent work rescuing Bella, and all what you do, much love from Yorkshire

Love the pooch, you are a good chap. Cheers

Panda 4x4 is the best one there . I’m in Cornwall and drive a very tidy 05 model , it’s bomb proof

Bella is a lovely dog!

That panda looks so much fun

Bet the B with a mazda engine is great bud, all that effort back in the day, mgc, bgt v8 and all they needed was a 90s Mx5 engine.

Keep the jaguar 👍your having fun with it.

Great idea donating half to the animal shelter Bella is beautiful dog glad she’s found her forever home with you and your family we have rescue Saluki called Madison great channel James

On the zafra if you haven’t already check the car horn with the headlights on. A really common electrical failure on them is the cim and a regular strange symptom is the horn won’t work with the lights on.

From one dog owner who's called 'Bella'... Well done, she'll make a great family addition.

Another good video chops and lovely dog well done with the charity work 🚗🚙🚘👍👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏👏👏👏

Interested to see that GT with Mazda lump. Needs windscreen chromes. 😂 I had a harvest gold one in the 1980s.

before doing anything with the Vitara check all around rear jacking points. Mine rusted badly there and involved a great deal of welding. Had mine for 13 years now. Petrol engine is a little heavy on petrol and a little under powered but a great car. Forget the diesel engine vitara, real pig of an engine.

I’ve been working on a Peugeot 107 for nearly a year - it was my late father’s I only have 1 close relative left alive so it has value to me. I used to like fast cars but they are so expensive to own and run. My fast car was an Austin Mini😂. Life experiences have put me completely off expensive items. I could earn money but it causes jealousy and I never wanted money. And who funds who - there would be too much pressure for me.

Zafira Ecotec engine known for oil leaking from the cam cover into the spark plug wells= poor running. Still on the Focus still an Ecoboom engine, my brothers was a 43k car serviced regular, still went boom!!

So I watched your video on the Ital where is it noe waiting for refurb somewhere or did you sell it on or did I miss something - again ?? What a lovely dog Bella is full of life & happy as can be ............enjoying your vids 🐕‍🦺🦮

On the Vitara: maybe do the service and MOT and put for sale with the bodywork as is? Next owner is likely to be its last owner although there's still plenty of life in it.

Another great video James and a beautiful dog, im going to have a think about the Camry and possibly email you an offer, its just a shame you are so far away, Im in Co Durham. all the very best to you, from Nick in Wolsingham

Panda 4x4 what a car. Twin air awesome engine.

I thought that the Renault Clio showed just 26k on the clock but could be wrong! 4x4 Panda is lovely, paint the rear quarter of the Suzuki and it will be top notch

159 thousand isnt much on those c classes. I put 250,000 on one, put an intercooler in at 180,000, Turbo at 220,000. Manual car on original clutch, exhaust, battery. Sold it on at small money but was confident to do so.

Great detailed catch-up you definitely have enough on to keep you busy perhaps best not to take on any more 'projects' for a while?

I like the look of the Hyundai I10 , great little cars 👍

Loving todays content. Always thought people that like dogs are normally good people 😊 Yes give the animal rescue centre a donation well done James

I would like to see what your doing with the bigger stuff you have there

just check the recalls for the Zafira they can cache fire

the zafira will be one of the 1.6 they sold off for £10k on 63 and 14 plates that came with 3 years servicing in on the price and then they never paid for dealer servicing again.

When the wife and I moved to Portugal in 2014 the first thing we did was look for a dog and some body said that a lady in a nearby village had two that she had rescued.the puppies had been tied up in an old house and basically abandoned. We came away with a three month old puppy called Tobias who was absolutely adorable.we loved him to bits and he never disgraced himself in the house and loved playing with our 2 young cats. Unfortunately two years later we had to have him put to sleep because he developed epilepsy and it could not be treated. When I saw Bella it brought back memories because he looked exactly like her.We believe he was a Podengo which is a popular breed of dog here and come in many different guises. Enjoy her she will give you loads of love for saving her from a miserable existence.👍

Hi I got my dog from a local lady who re homes dogs from Croatia. He was a street dog , I’d allways now go for a rescue dog

Old cars still go for good money here in Thailand for some reason

with wet timing belt issue for the renault good luck with that

Welcome home James, have missed my weekly fix of CG. Please feature Bella in a few more video's as we would all like to see if she learns English better than you??? Well you certainly appear to be making up for lost time with the increase in stock. Well done with the charity temp chart-nearly there? More horror stories please!! We all like to comment on what we would have done. Your video's reflect a truer picture of the motor trade-if not life itself! Enjoy the week ahead. Alan B-Nottm

I enjoyed your stock video, you are very honest I would definitely buy a used car from you. Long term subscriber so I know! Great end to the video with your forthcoming further charitable donations. Well done James.

That Vitara is a really nice colour, if i had the money I would have brought it. Would love to own a fiat coupe one day, the XF looks nice and what a find with that 4x4 panda. That mercedes eatate is nice, another car i would like to own one day 😂 keep up the great content.

To be fair the 2.2 merc engine is more or less solid you don’t tend to get many issues with it even with mileage.

I was looking at a vitara on motability, I think its worth doing as the rest seems in nice order.Could sort the creases but leave the paint?

Would buy the wee panda 4

I have a nissan juke 1000cc with a turbo beautiful car really fast car

Rev counter on Zafira tells you it’s petrol, no diesel revs that high. 1.6 petrol, bit low on power, I had one new when they first came out many moons ago.

if its 3 cylinders James the Clio is a 0.9, the 1.2 was 4 cylinder, had oil consumption issues, basis of numerous out of warranty claims, avoid.

The Zafira B did indeed over heat - ie they had a wiring issue that had loads of them setting on fire. You can google it. I think that resulted in a recall. A mate had one that was a company car and his set on fire in a multi storey car park. Very messy outcome.

Mirage is a 1.2 3 cyl. I'll have to offer you my dads 2016 Mirage when he dies ( he knows none of us need it! ), needs a bit of paint from old man parking bumps, but FSH and only on about 30k at the moment. His is an auto though, so prob an easy sell, esp with zero RFL.

Oh a Vauxhall Adam? I must admit I thought you weren’t the biggest fan of the Vauxhall Corsa that the Adam is based on (but I might have got that completely wrong) sorry if I have. Anyway I liked that Adam looked like a good car. Love the channel and love the videos.

That Suzuki 4x4 looks nice in green......looks clean apart from the mucky carpets. If it drives nicely, that will please most people James..... it's a toss up whether the knock and paint is worth doing....

Definitely fix the Grand Vitara and advertising for 3600 Sterling

Good round up dude, some nice stock there! You didn't mention the Vito? .. 🤔

hi James what product do you buff with thanks Brian

Do the work on the Vitara James it will pay you back.

Look atgetting yhe Suzuki dent fixed by a PDR repairer . A good one will fix that in a day and at trade price wont break the bank.

James I would be very interested in the Panda 4x4 once you have evaluated it and priced it, thanks.

Nice collection, you are going to be very busy. How many keys are on you key ring??👍👍👍👍

Definitely fix the quarter panel will make a nice car £300 sounds very reasonable it’s a bit of a mess

Where do bids for the Camry get sent too 🧐

those camereis are fast will run forever .million miles .

What's the story on the silver Twingo?

I hired a Hyundai i10 once, it was rapid for a 1.2!

So I guess Canine focus should be the next recipient of raffle takings then 🙂

1st car i pranged was a Camry BRAND SPANKING NEW 2.2L Estate back in 1993 i think.

Get a cheap pdr kit and have a go at making it look better you can't make it worse and it would be a handy skill to learn.

I thought the tdv8 was the one to go for, aswell as the td6 strait 6 that is the bmw lump.... not the terrible 2.7 v6 with chocolate crankshafts

Great video bud

Hi james,that camry should last donkey's years super durable and reliable despite its age and miles.Look after bella lol.

Another word instead of, " really ". How about " beautiful". .good enough for Rob in Salvage Rebuilds UK. 😊

Would like to see a video on the Range Rover if possible.

The Adam is pretty basic as it doesn’t have a multimedia screen. Even basic Adam’s were well specced compared to a corsa though

Winter's coming do the suzuki

Take some advice bud and draw a line under buying stuff to save, it doesn't mean anything and your just missing out sorting your profitable cars out, it's your achiless heal tbh.

After a Jag preferably a diesel got to get it by January 15th, budget max 4.5k hoping to get a Jaguar xe xf xj I don't mind about bodywork and some mechanical and do that myself still got the Jag how?

Funny that GM didn't want Peugeot to have the Adam (I read), so it just disappeared. Pity.

More so now with this ULEZ

Is a 2012 Grand Vitara 2.4 SZ5 auto reliable?

If you can’t stand the heat get out of the kitchen,buying bangers was always going to be your downfall,I can’t wait.

I’ll happily take the Mercedes’ estate off your hands. You can keep anything from the JLR stable.

How much do want for the merc mate?

I think you did a trial of dealer spark vs auction c1, seems the spark lost bud.

Hi James, give us a shout on the Panda. My brother in law is a potential buyer.

I’ll have anything free chops😊
