    I’m a new subscriber and I am very impressed with the quality of these videos. I’m also on a similar journey away from IT and getting back into my passion for fixing cars and sometimes you see a lot of the bigger well known RUclipsrs do these really unrealistic builds where is actually the best part of fixing cars is the unloved ones where it should really go to a scrapyard but we think let’s give it one more go! Since I have stopped letting RUclips recommend me the bigger RUclipsrs I’m finding a lot more relatable content with content creators such as yourself so keep doing what you’re doing as it is inspiring.

      Thanks for sharing this.
      I get way too passionate about getting these projects done. Once it’s started it has to be finished. It’s extremely satisfying when it comes together though.
      Thanks for watching and good luck with your future projects.

    Really enjoying this series and was a completely random RUclips recommendation!! Actually started with your last video first then gone back and watched from video 1. Inspired me to try and get my old TT back on the road :)

      Fingers crossed!
      It’s actually not cost much in parts. Just massive amounts of time but it’s all good.
      I’ve enjoyed saving its life. 🤣

    "I wanted something with a Level of Mechanical Damage" So he bought a car which had spun a bearing!! Alex Gibson you must be a "gluten for punishment" buying a car with bottom end "banging like Mad".... BUT that is why I love watching you work on these cars and the level of explanation of what you are doing and why.
    Looks like we are going to see "a guide for a BMW (B47 I think) Diesel Bottom End Rebuild" ... Hopefully the crank and case are in reasonable condition.

      🤣 yeah I like a challenge.
      B47 yes it is.
      I’m sure it can be fixed one way or another.
      It’s my mission this week if the snow holds off.

      @Gibboplay  2 месяца назад +1

      Not just yet. It’s going for MOT hopefully next week. I want to put a few miles on it just to make sure it’s all ok before it goes up for sale.
