At least you always make sure the car is properly roadworthy, unlike many other people..Well done for being one of the very rare and genuine dealers..Andre...

@olabondesson4902 Год назад

People expect a lot from cars because it is usually their second largest purchase after their home. It is very easy to forget that, especially if you are a man of means. I agree that the expectations are unrealistic, but for many people even a used car is a large sum of money. I don't blame them for shopping around.

@paulanderton9424 Год назад

I wouldn't pay £11k for a car with a peeling facia. 8 years or not. It would be worth changing it out imo.

@paulsheehan2998 Год назад

Yes, but you have to be realistic when buying a used product. If you want perfect, buy new or spend the time and money on making good what you have. This car would have been 30k+ when sold new, the reason it's now not 30k is because it's used and imperfect.

@paulanderton9424 Год назад

@@paulsheehan2998 It is a 15 plate not an old car. You need to not give the buyer any reason to not buy it. A facia is an easy replacement.

@kopitepaul Год назад

@@paulsheehan2998 but there are lots of them for sale that don’t have a peeling stereo fascia, so why settle for one you’re not happy with? If it’s something you can see and know it’s going to catch your eye & annoy you every time you drive it then nothing wrong with walking away from it.

@warren6815 Год назад

You could very easily find a similar spec car for a similar price with a perfect radio facia, but is no where near as mechanically sorted as this one. All about getting the balance right. I'd rather take this one and get a bit of money knocked off to replace the radio (or more than likely put up with it as it is) knowing that it has just had a load of money thrown at the mechanical bits.

@MrSonicAdvance Год назад

I test drove a Kuga and was impressed by how well it drove. I found it a bit tight inside with a tall passenger in the rear, and it was going a bit rusty here and there, so I didn't go for it. But it was a nice car to drive.

Good to see a Kuga get an outing on the channel. We have a 17 plate which is the face-lifted version of this one, and it’s been a really good car. Reliable, comfortable and big enough for most situations. Plus ideal for carrying Labrador’s in the boot 🙂

I recently moved from a 2008 Land Rover Freelander HSE to a 2013 Ford Kuga Titanium X with 84,000 miles with auto box. Was £8299 and the equivalent Freelander HSE for the same age were well over £10k with over 120,000 miles on the clock . No problems so far but in the 2 years of owning the Land Rover it had to be recovered twice with failures.😢 Keep up the good vids and should have bid on the campervan 😢

@marksmith7147 Год назад

Have the same car but with the 1.5 eco boost. The relay for the indicators is ridiculously loud and is part of the towing kit, so not as loud for the standard model. The all wheel drive is surprisingly capable. I took mine to Tixover Quarry where it matched a Discovery Sport trial for trial (and I know the Disco Sport isn’t a thoroughbred 4x4 but then neither is a Kuga). The only damage done to the Kuga was when washing it once I got home. The jet wash took some paint off of the front valance!

@TSM-TSM Год назад

This is an excellent example and realistic video of why the trade-in price and forecourt retail price need to have the 15-25% disparity. If customers are buying second hand from a used dealer they still expect a premium example of that model on the forecourt - irrespective of what the dealer paid for it.

@chrismcfarlane8996 Год назад

Just bought the wife a low mileage Skoda Fabia. Absolutely spotless. The cars mint. Like yourself Matt it's good to know there are good honest dealers out there. Oh hang on. There is one tiny scratch at the bottom of the bumper(13 years old) I should now therefore reject it. Lol. And I want my mortgage paid off by the dealer who sold me it. Thanks for all the content.

Not sure about the reg PN15😂. However, I have a end of line facelift model, a 2020 2.0 TDCi Titanium X. It's a nice drive, not a vehicle that likes to pick up its skirts and be hussled down a B road, mind. But then that's not its forte. Its a good and comfortable workhorse with good pickup and easy cruising... I have no complaints about it.

@williamfence566 Год назад

Pretty sure most dealers would have not bothered with the tyre if the tread and repair were not an MOT failure. It's why the reputation is as it is and the good guys get lumped all together.

@kabukidreamboy Год назад

How would the mechanic have spotted an internal tyre repair? They surely didn't take all the tyres off to check?! It's generally accepted that a repair wouldn't cause a blowout anyway so you could have saved £145 there.

@Tugger4me1 Год назад

Matt love your vlogs and you have my mindset when it comes to cars, I have always spent way more than I should on bringing something back to life although for my own enjoyment and use. With regards to the Ford - well I have a soft spot for Fords or at least Fords of the past any way but I would have to say that for £11,000 I would not accept peeling trim inside around the radio or scuffs to the bumper - but I may be one of those with unrealistic expectations for that age vehicle. I have to say though the recent brought back to life big Merc had my juices flowing - I did have a closer look on your web site and was nearly tempted.

I bought a 16 150 TDCI in november it's not my car but it does a job, despite being a Focus platform it's a nicer car than any focus I have driven, although not as nimble as a MK1 focus. It is a bit of a barge, and our previous Galaxy MK2 130 PD was more fun on the open road with better handeling and the PD loved being flexed, the TDCI I am constantly waiting for it to randomly just break.

@Nick-bp7jf Год назад

Hi Matt. Good video as always. I always learn something. Yes, you are correct about vehicles with permanent four wheel drive. All four tyres must have same rolling circumference or the transfer case will suffer. Can become expensive when all four tyres must be replaced at same time.

@kevinclarke9689 Год назад

The ticking indicator is to do with the tow bar electrics, an extra wiring box will be fitted inside the rear wing covers. I have a 2.0 diesel with 175k Miles or 282k kilometers which runs like a dream, its never had a spanner near the engine apart from timing belt and oil changes. Much better car than both the previous two cars also purchased new Toyota diesel Corolla and a Honda Civic diesel. If it does have a weak point it key batteries which need replacing every year almost to the day.

@leepageuk Год назад

A word of caution about these cars folks .. My sister-in-law has a 65 reg one of these, with full service history, owned for about 5 or so years now. It has been serviced regularly at expense no object, without fail, as scheduled by Ford, by a very reputable garage since she bought it. The service manual RECOMMENDS that the timing belt be changed at 10 years or 200,000 miles ( yeah I know, a shock to me too !! ) It's only done 80,000 miles ... guess what .. yep, the belt went a few weeks ago causing the obvious catastrophic engine damage that follows. Ford didn't want to know because it is only RECOMMENDED ( surprise, surprise ) It's back on the road now after a £4000 engine rebuild ... so change that timing belt at a more sensible interval, every 5 years / 70 k at most

I'd fully agree with your "quality isn't the best" comment Matt. Around 5 or 6 years ago, I had a Focus 1.0 Ecoboost Zetec estate and build quality wasn't one of it's plusses. The rubber door seals detached at 50k miles, and there were signs of other problems on the way. I got rid of it. I honestly think the build of the Sierras I had back in the early 90's was better than the new stuff. Mind you, I had a Peugeot 405 for a while, back in the early 90's, and that made my Sierra's build quality seem like a 15th century castle.

@tomscott9938 Год назад

The key thing to note with those PowerShift gearboxes is that they need to be serviced every 3 years and the super special oil costs around £400! If you don't service it, it will misbehave and ultimately one shaft will fail to engage, which means you'll be left with 3 gears rather than six. In my Smax the box would start to play up after around 2.5 years, so they are very expensive to run. Stay clear.

I'm glad you mentioned outstanding finance... I used car vertical recently (thanks to your recommendation - cheers) and found something a bit odd; I paid a deposit on a car, having done the check. Dealer was a bit funny and hasn't put a fresh MOT on it as he said he would. Gut feeling made me run the check again and I was surprised to see the car now had outstanding finance! I surmised he'd gone and sold it after taking my deposit! The description of the finance type is "Unit Stocking" (LE CAPITAL UK (ASSET 1) LTD) so perhaps not so bad, but disconcerting nonetheless. His communication is dire so I've walked. A bit gutting but hey.

@HighPeakAutos Год назад

Good point. I'm going to do a video about this because I'm asked this a lot. Most car dealers have a stocking plan (finance which pays for the cars sitting on their forecourt until they sell). This will show up on a vehicle history check and it's nothing to worry about. Once you pay for the car that marker will be lifted. Having said that, if you're not confident or had a change of heart, then dont go through with it.

I can overcome the finance based on my learning about it but the dealers hopeless comms and MOT thing, I'm not prepared to sit on a train for 5 hours and be left stranded.

CRV had a screen in the middle and like another on above near the windshield, and was really spacious. Grandland was brilliant, a bit smaller, but felt the poshest out of the 3, blue colour, sunroof, heated leather seats, etc. Audi A4, never had a BMW/Audi/Merc in my life so saw one for similar money and just decided to go for it.

Like these videos, Matt's eloquent, knowledgeable and to the point. But it's sad that the `motor trade' is little changed from the days when I sold cars in the 60s/70s! Typical example "I'm looking for a low-mileage family car must have five seats and be a discreet colour cos' it's used in my business." Salesman "Sorry sir nothing in stock but I'll see if I can find something to your spec." Next day salesman finds car that exactly fits the bill, 'phones the prospect who says "sorry mate I've bought a yellow Triumph Spitfire, the missus liked it." In other words - if you don't strike while the iron is hot, you're dead in the water.

@lewissaunders2837 Год назад

I’ve got the same car , AWD , power shift etc, the auto box sucks even after a oil change and she’s very thirsty for a diesel! The car is just alright …. But for the money it’s a steal

@iandavies1893 Год назад

You always ensure your cars are more than roadworthy but the parts and labour from the garage you use Matt seem very high for a Ford or sometimes a lot of your cars. A less conscientious person would save a fortune on the same parts. Just saying 😂 great video as always.

At least it doesn't have a spare hanging on the back - a good solid motor with an interesting number plate

Our 2013 Ford B-max had it's gearbox fail at under 40,000 miles. Fortunately, because we've had it serviced every year at a Ford main dealer, regardless of mileage covered, Ford picked up the bill which would have cost us £3,600.

I agree with what you said that some people are really picky and the mechanics… they are the worst 😂😂. For some years I had two cars and didn’t drive one of them at all, so when I put it for sale, the mileage was really low. After a while, some guy came with his mechanic to check the car, finally the mechanic said: the mileage is too low, they changed it for sure, and the car need 2 new shock absorbers… So they left. Some mechanics are really dumb.😅😅😅 Finally my own mechanic bought the car from me with a really good price.

I’m loving you bragging about your number plate skills Matt! Cracks me up 😂 another great video, well done 👏🏻👍🏻😀

@md-detailing Год назад

Great buy as always Matt! Theyre nice cars but as you said when theyre serviced properly. Love the wipers! :D

@pauldavies6037 Год назад

It's the maintenance that counts there is usually something that needs doing to get them 100% as he does which costs money

@user-sj2co7kf5q Год назад

Great video Matt, the indicator relay noise from the boot will be to do with the tow electrics. Nice car!

You’re right. I didn’t think of that

Begining my Eid with your video and just as pleasant if not better weather here in Pakistan. And yes Matt that is a good color 😂

@TRD1949uk Год назад

As long as the box is serviced every 37.5k miles then generally they are pretty good boxes and a great car all round.

Nice of you to wear your PJ's for this one Matt!😀

@iR3DEMPTIONi Год назад

That cars in amazing condition, I work in a bodyshop and the amount of damage that car dealers leave on cars its a surprise they sell anything lol. This looks like a car less than a year old for sure. Dont know about having to buy a new tyre for the repaired one though, if it was done correctly it should be as safe as a new tyre? Maybe it was done with a "do it yourself" at home kit maybe.

@TheEpicSponge Год назад

Can't help but notice the 'new' tyre you shown at 9:13 is already 2 years old. Date code of 0721! Either way, your love for Range Rovers convinced me to buy a 2006 L322 4.2SC as a Christmas present to myself. Got her really cheap with a few issues (suspension failed and in need of a general tuneup). Gearbox went on it, but that could've happened to anyone. £3,500 purchase, £150 for a new suspension airbag, £2k gearbox and a further ~£700 in misc fixes and she's perfect!

@HighPeakAutos Год назад

That wasn’t necessarily the new tyre. Just a random photo

Glad you like the RR
