imagine committing insurance fraud and thinking you got away with it and then seeing a youtuber buy your car being like "yeah this was an insurance scam" for the entire world to see lololol

435 owner here. My guy you came up PHAT on this deal wow! I’m shocked at the condition of this car. Great buy man very stoked to see this🔥🔥

[NGlitchesFTW]

I actually got lucky like this too in ny with a 2014 328i flood car, the same “problems” that this 435i had😂 just recently sold it doe🥲 good video man🔥 videos like this makes me want to keep rebuilding from copart cause sometimes i get too scared to get a car from there, been burned before sadly but had more good times then bad💪🔥

Sometimes you gotta risk it for the biscuit!

[lorenzocosta]

Bro I hope Florida and the new year it’s gonna still stimulate you to keep up on YouTube and posting you are one of the best rebuild/car content channel on YouTube gg

Awesome Tim. You bought the sale of the century. U.K. approves. It seems like a typical easy scam. Great colour. Phenomenal condition. You deserve it. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

lol the Trunk Leak on the Amp & Battery literally happens to Mercedes W204's As well 😂😂😂
and we bought another "salvage" Mercedes that kept having electrical issues and got written off....turns out the previous owner took out fuses and put paper clips and unplugged some wires. I fixed all that and its been perfect for 3 years now 😂
sometimes its the simplest things!!

I think this happens more than we think…I bought an older flooded BMW 3 series from Copart sight unseen in Houston and when I picked it up, it was bone dry and definitely was never flooded. I wasn’t complaining either.

Tim you are legend, we all love you, keep bringing us back the good ol' quality content

I've bought a flooded 15 q50 didn't run or drive. For 4k with 39k miles. Replaced bcm started right up sold it for 15500

[genzarsteve]

That's a jackpot, thanks for content much love from South Africa 🇿🇦

The owner of this one is probably watching this video sweating right now. 😂😂😂

6800 is an absolute steal considering that bmw in general no matter the model seem to fetching for very high in the aftermarket. not sure what its like over there in america, but over here you wont get a rustbucket e39 520 for less than 2k

[davejohnson]

I bought a 335i that has a salvage title due to a flood but the car is absolutely mint and has no signs of ever being in a flood with no smell or electric issues whatsoever. I love the car! 😁

[philtucker]

Tim I think you’ve hit the nail on the head. The trailers that Niko brothers have been buying have all had some electrics either cut or removed so that would probably be a “fail” in a rudimentary test of the electrics. - That’s probably all the insurance company needs to write-off the car and pay out the owners..

[davidkunas]

In America, you have great advantages regarding these auctions and you can get an excellent car for a few bucks. Here in Europe, especially in Slovakia, it is impossible to get such a car for such money

[GROGU]

I would only buy a flooded car on Copart if it has the "RUNS AND DRIVES" designation in the description. Then, once you cleaned and drained everything, all you have to do is worry about how to fix each warning light.

Fellow Tampa Bay BMW owner here. To answer your question about shows etc.. there was Festivals of Speed show at Vinnoy Park in St Pete last weekend, there's shows at Jax Wax in Clearwater once a month or so, there's a rally run tomorrow leaving from Redliner Auto in Lutz, and others
