Team I need to confer with my colleagues

Two good mates, a Kiwi living in the UK and an Englishman living in New Zealand, are reconvening to see if this is really a great idea after all! With limited knowledge of car mechanics but sunny dispositions we can't possible imagine that anything could go wrong here... after all, apparently the car was only driven by some blokes grandma once a week to the grocery store and that small, well, that's nothing we need to worry about.
