hoovie always says “It’s the cheapest _______ in the USA.” Wizard gets ahold of it, “It was the cheapest”
Tyler is the living embodiment of false economy.
dafirnz reporting quarterly earnings as a bag of bespoke ashes.
well he going made alot of money....
He ent called wizard for nothing
"I forgot to tell you it was the cheapest 5000lbs strap in the USA".
Would have been a cracking gag from the Wizard as the engine was being moved.
Tyler: Brings over his newest “addition” to his garage
*the next day*
Weeeezard: pulls up to work in a 250 GTO
Especially with the closing shot.... one on the lift, one with the hood up and one with the engine out....
Wizard: *pulls up in a yacht*
The car wizard is a Frau d and he is taking advantage of Tyler !
@@hawaiianprestigecars8493 nah Tyler is taking advantage of The Wizard 😂
@@geniuspeak5950 the car wizard is a known mafia fraudster.
Wizard is the man. I love his positive attitude and chill demeanor, he seems like a great dude to hang out and do some wrenching with.
He seems like a great manager
Well this must a first Tyler, the Aston just needs a service? No leaks, no broken pipes, no warning lights... 🤔
Well done sir she cannot be referred to as a hooptie 👍😂
One might say that, regardless of condition: all British cars are hoopties.
wheeliepw …yet
@@craiglautenslager I own a 1968 Ford escort. No rust and has never brocken down or given me any trouble. Also 1961 Etype again never let me down. All car's will let you down if not maintained.
Until spark plugs break off in the head
Hoovie will do the inevitable burnout/doughnut in the parking lot, and the dreaded Check Engine light will turn on. Mark my words...
2020 its a really rare year i have no idea how he bought a car that doesn't need repairs just simple mainteinance how that's possible? Its the end of the world?
Give it a couple of months...
Only when everything else is very very wrong does Hoovie get something right!😄
A sure sign we've entered the End Times.
Maybe this will pull us out of the darkest timeline
What .what why nothing wrong with it ???
Hoovie displays his extensive mechanical skills keeping the engine straight. ASE certified for sure.
Joebiz24 is the wizard ASE certified?
@@ega0117 A certified ass, lol
ASE certs don’t mean anything. Being a proficient experience tech that takes pride in his work and takes care of his customers is what matters.

@@1985toyotacamry Being a father of 2 i can totally relate. I could never fathom how something so tiny can produce so much poop and sometimes you have to leave the room and gather the courage to go back in and it doesn't help the whole time my mother and wife are laughing at me.
@@tjk9263 definitely in my case it was my sister I never change a diaper but once I see that I'm like I'm not ready for this but I dive in and it wasn't so bad just it took much longer than I expected.
jchad_1017 Haha, that was exactly what came to my mind. Didn't know if the Wizard was joking or not.
It’s a engine built by Ford based on shared components of the Duratec V6 but it’s not two 6 cylinder engines stuck together. For example it has a different block, crankshaft and heads.
Many manufacturers have shared components or engines. In fact the Ford engine was developed from a 2.5 litre engine which was a joint effort from Mazda and Suzuki with input from Porsche. Ford worked with Cosworth to develop that engine into a 3.0 V6.
For Aston Martin the V12 was developed using many Duratec complements and the end result is a V12 that many regard as one of the best engines in the world.
The looks of that Rapide make up for all its flaws in my opinion.
Erik Åhlander it’s only real flaw is the horrible backseat space for a ‘family car’
Erik Åhlander of which there are apparently few
What flaws? It's perfect!
@@mattevans4377 The automatic transmission in those years when Aston Martin was owned by Ford were awful. That is why many owners of Aston's paid the big money to have their's changed to manual transmissions. It cost close to 40,000 dollars to have it changed but anyone that can afford to buy an Aston Martin can afford to pay to change the transmission.
@@tjk9263 I was joking. Sort of. Let me put it this way. Alfa Romeo's of old, fell apart like no-one's business. But, for 5 minutes a year, they were perfection, when everything worked right. Aston Martin is like that. Terrible, but also, perfect.
Having Wizard on the video, with all his knowledge and calm, makes the watching experience much more compelling..thanks..
I'm debating on unsubscribing!!!!!
Hoovie actually made a worthwhile purchase with the
Aston Martin! LOL!
Its an Aston Martin, oh so pretty but never a worthwhile purchase, even if it was free.
At a glance it looks like a weird lookong tesla
@@JAYD3EChannel more like the tesla looks like a weird looking aston martin

Hiya Hoovie I remember when I was 8 years of age I was in an Aston Martin the same one as Lord Brett Sinclair drove in the persuaders. There was 5 people in it and it still went like a rocket this was on the m23 in the Uk I would never forget what an experience. Hope you and your family keep safe and well all the best V 😃😃😃😃🙏🏼🇺🇸🇬🇧
Dang that Rapide is gorgeous
I'm watching for years, but never subscribed. I always said: The day he gets a flawless car, I'll subscribe to his channel. So, here we go!
Why? If you liked the content, why not just subscribe? Seems like a like baiting comment to me...
PeugeotRocket and you bit 😂😂
Perfect family car? Meanwhile your Previa is in tears!
Does he even still have it?
"That way, the leaks don't collect!" I about fell out of my chair laughing! Love the Wizard! Always enjoy your show!
The Rapide is one of the best looking sedans ever made. Aston did a fantastic job bringing their classic styling to the platform.
I don’t like a lot of YT videos. But I always like all of Hoovies because I want to feel like I’m helping him get closer to break even , instead of completely wasting money on them lol
0:00 what a view
Hehe, yeah I watch Hoovie's garage "for the plot." 😏
Wizard is THICCCCC
"I've Seen the Bad Moon Rising"...everybody now...'We know there's trouble on the way...'
7:04 Wizard: "Humpin' the tiger"
You can tell how much more comfortable Wizard is on camera. I remember the 1st videos where he looked like a deer in headlights. Love his channel too!
The Wizard loves his job for sure
He become a millionaire by fixing Hoovie’s broken cars😂
BASITH PH I’ll tell you who’s NOT becoming a millionaire. His office manager!
CONGRATULATIONS! New Baby and SCORE on the Rapide! The heck with Covid-19 I'm celebrating a rare used exotic victory!
Love your videos Tyler! Stay safe and congratulations on your new family addition!
Pedantic point. The block was cast as a V12 by Cosworth. No welding involved.
Still loving this purchase. Best one, besides the oft broken 500E.
I suspect that when the Wizard says "I enjoyed it" what he is saying is that the repair cost meter was spinning wildly.
Less of the self-deprecating introduction Hoovie, you're better than that and this is one of the best automotive channels, certainly not the dumbest.
I feel for you Tyler. Seems like this may be the 1st engine pull that you've physically been at. I've seen and performed many engine pulls/swaps. If you thought that it coming out was scary, just wait till it is going back in.
lol yeah the taking apart stuff is always easier than the putting together stuff xD
The scariest part of any engine removal and refitting is ALWAYS hitting the key the first time.
Thanks, Hoovie. I wish the best to you, Wizard and both of your families.
“You definitely needed my help.” Lol just an excuse to get out of the house (and film a video). Like Junior Mint or Crazy D couldn’t help hold an engine steady... 😆
Hoovie does SIMPLE VIDEOS. I love THIS about him.
There’s a beautiful Lotus Evora in the back❤️❤️❤️
The reason for all the holes on the floor of the Aston is for cooling. That's all. Cars can still get a lot of air up through the floor, although now it seems that a flat bottom is preferable to get less drag.
Impressive V12 engine in the Lambo. And what a shock to see the engine bay so empty yet it still has a gearbox fitted!
Someone tell Wizard he misinterpreted the term "engine mount"
There’s nothing like a classic 4-door sedan. Great choice Tyler. Thanks for the video.
seems like a good time to do an exhaust on the lambo hoovie
I would definitely be going through forums and what not to find out what all the common engine problems are on these things and doing all that while it is out.
dear hoovie,i know you are reading coments and i'd like to say that
YOUR CONTENT IS MY FAVORITE ON RUclips!
Hoovie: so much money is relying on this yellow cable
Also Hoovie: *supports the engine with one hand, camera in the other*
if not support just made sure it won't swing.
The Wizard is a mechanic, but he's also a car enthusiast. Seeing him getting so happy with a car is all very wholesome. I know other RUclipsr mechanics that would just talk crap about that car and tell you to get a used Toyota Celica or something...
Last time I was this early Hoovie didnt have a baby!
So probably never? Hoovie has 2 children, Liam and I don't remember what his daughter's name is EDIT: It's Ellie
That rapide is a gorgeous color! Thought it was basic sliver in the last video. The blacks wheel are perfect just get them a new coat of black to cover the red imo
I love how close the Wizard and Tyler are
E-gear valve screws always need to be tightened before putting everything back together. They back out naturally. Will cause the transmission to go into neutral. FYI. Big fan.
I'm sure Wizard knows that, lol.
Matt Evans I’m sure he does 100%. Wish I had a Lamborghini to take to him. So hard to find honest mechanics that take their time.
Wizard: "I need you to come out of isolation to hold the engine steady while I take it out."
(A dude with a broom walks by in the the background 9:06.)
IKR??? If Hoovie helped, I HELPED!!!!! LOL
That broom's not going to hold itself. Good job Broom Boy!
He just excited to be there lol
I'd rather hold the $40,000 engine myself instead of trusting the $9 an hour broom guy 😂
That's Junior Mint
More than a month in confinment here, I don't even know what day it is... But Tyler is always here to cheer us up, that's great !
That Lambo's clutch looked like it was in a fire!
That's how it is with super performance cars, you never know what the previous owner was up to.
When Ferruccio Lamborghini started out driving those sports touring cars of which he had many, one of which was a Ferrari 250 he discovered that this one and others were burning out clutches for a pastime, after several replacement clutches he brought his displeasure to Enzo Ferrari's attention but to no avail, so Lamborghini suggested that their own company go down the route of building a touring Sports car, using even some of their already proved tractor parts and moreover insisted that their Tractor clutches be put into same to do away with that weak link ... with that did was to came with a robust and reliable Sports tourer, leading to a lot of sales of same.
That Aston looks just like my Prius did last year - spots of rough love and in need of a tuneup(basically fluid and filter changes), but a solid 10/10. I love these kinds of vehicles - you buy them and kepp 'em.
*don't act ever again. Thank you, the internet 2020.
I don't know why but there's something satisfying about this channel, from the catchy intro etc
Should have sat on that V12 and swung around singing "I came in like a wrecking ball!"
Thanks for the visual that absolutely no one knew they never wanted...
Julian S Most expensive wrecking ball
Cleetus already did that on a Chevy V8.
@@Gordanovich02 Yes, and it was epic. That's why Hoovie should have given it a swing.
Nah, to quit James Cagney in "White Heat ", "Top of the world Mah !" BOOM
So glad that Hoovie didn't get screwed on the Austin. Just goes to show that every dog has his day!
“Sounds like money in pockets” DEAD
Mr100duke “Im dead” like you know when you saying something funny and someone says “im dead”
Thank you for helping me tune out the pandemic. Hope you and your family are staying safe.
Waiting for the day when hoovie takes his cars to Scotty's garage
he would have told him not to buy some german/italian crap because they are endless moneypits then fixed it
I'll boycott anything that collabs with Scotty, his clickbait deserves a damn trial with a jury at this point.
me too
Scotty Kilmer: Rev up your engine!
Hoovie: Well, uhm, this one doesn't run yet.
Scotty Kilmer: ...
Hey @HooviesGarage we want a collab ASAP
Hi… I have a Citroen with the same window drop system… they function this way when opening the door because the top of the window nibs into the rubber water/door seal… this frees the door to open without hindrance.
The car wizard video was hilarious, great video for laughs during quarantine lol
I had to replace the spark plugs and coils in my Mazda which had the 3.0L V6 which this engine is two of, and it's true that you do have to remove the intake runners to get to half of the spark plugs. It was kind of a pain. It was a nice engine though! It took the same direct ignition coils as some 90s Mustang SVT Cobra, funnily enough.
been waiting for this, love the Rapide
Hoovie keeping the Car Wizard employed during the uncertain times
2:07 Wizard: Its like the perfect family car!
Audi RS6: Am I a joke to you?!
Yeah I was thinking the Rapide had good competition with the Ferrari FF and Audi RS7.
Great assist on the Lambo ❤️ removal! Looking forward to the completion of this project!
Not to mention Wizard trying to get to 2nd base with the Rapide.
Let's get hoovie get to one million, shall we 😁.
✌️❤️Stay safe
Don't you tell me to stay safe.
@@Malc180s okay...
it’s a good thing hoovie was there. i don’t think the wizard could have found someone so under qualified to stand there and hold the swinging motor steady.
🤣🤣 First time I've seen such a thing; Wiz is twerking on a Lamborghini motor. I've now seen it all.
You know it’s tuff time when hoovies is helping pull the motor!!
👏👏😂😂
Everyone: social distancing 6 feet
Tyler: 6 inches is enough isn't it
That’s only if your not closely connected! These guys are a team ones a taker and ones a giver!
Social distancing is gay.
Yeah, esp. with a newborn at home.. like the rich don't get corona..
here we go again, the covid police
well there two not going to be around for long
Thanks for the video gentlemen. It remains enjoyable to view such beautiful technology in depth. Stay safe!
'It's absolutely perfect.'
Famous last words 😂
I seriously have been looking at Rapides for 5 years. I was nervous of Aston Martins reliability. I want one now for sure!
When it comes to wheels on exotic cars I gotta say I’d for sure look into Vossen Forged, their wheels are amazing
Perfect if all you want to do is waste money and sound like a tit every time you mention how much you spent on them.
Did I just hear what I think I heard. Hoovie actually bout a good car, and a good family car at that. I guess the Auto Tempest challenge help you on picking better cars. Now the channel may never be the same.
I can never get over the structure of the Murcielago (check that spelling Hoovie!). It looks like makeshift kit car under the body panels. That's Lambo pre-Audi for you.
Looks like any used car with panels off. And Murch isn't pre-Audi
I recently did a photo shoot on a rapide and the same gentleman did the final inspection on that as well thought that was pretty neat seeing that on here!
Hoovie helped, by increasing the tension of the operation lol
If you ever get rid of this car ever, it'll be the silliest thing you have done. Hang on to this car, what a beauty man!
That rapide is awesome
The "Lamborghini" skit is sooo great. I'm going through a difficult time after losing my Mom and this makes me laugh, thank you Hoovie and Car Wizard!!
So, it's really a Ford?
The windows drop down to avoid them shattering when you slam the doors.
:0)
That murcielago has got to be one of the sexiest lambos ever made. If I had to pick one exotic dream car that one would be it.
I agree. Except for that toupee soft top.
For me, I'd ditch it.
@@Isaackariuki775 agreed, I think I would rather have the hard top.

Cheers to the British Ford Taurus. Smart move on the Wizard’s part disconnecting the transmission from the motor on the Mircuelago 👍
"its extremely long" - the car wizard
Duhsmersh Well it was wasnt it?
Duhsmersh 🤣

The Aston needing virtually nothing has been the only good news of 2020. A tip of the hat to Tyler.
Ya never know what to expect when the caption reads "Uh Oh " & then you see the back end of the Wizard!! Yikes! Butt it turns out that the Rapide is in pretty good shape. It's a good day!!
Stay safe & healthy everyone 😷
Tyler we all sit at home watching your videos anyway. You don't need a clickbait thumbnail. Also if you want one, just write "it's perfect". No one would believe you but instantly click on it
The world is officially broken. No more school, can’t go outside, and now Tyler bought a NOT BROKEN car. I think the universe is ending.
Nice job Wizard 🧙♂️ pulling out that massive motor 🤘🏻
That scared me. Thats a lot of money hanging there.
a normal car seatbelt would have lifted this engine as well. no worries !
@@st_us not saying the nylon wont hold. Just that sliding and falling would be very bad.
@@cayman9873 I was about to say drop the engine, say fuck it and LS swap it lol
I actually really like the Rapide with the black wheels! With a tune to boost the hp that thing would be extra sweet!
How exactly did Hoovie "help" get that engine out?
He was present and did not cause delays or damages.
Stayed out of his way.
Hey Tyler. Those 'clever' AM windows? Same as the Merc CLK from many years back. Why? Because there are no protective pillars. Without them, the glass would be meeting at force and disaster might ensue, so a clever switch just to drop both the front and rear window to prevent you having to replace the side glass each time you get in. Enjoy.
sounds like just another expensive thing that will break

Chief engineer of AM at the time the V12 came out said, that it is not two V6's mated 2gether tho it shares some of it's architecture with the European Ford Mondeo V6.
Marrku, you are absolutely correct! Most non-Aston people keep rattling off this ridiculous line about the V12 being two Duratec V6s, Taurus V6s, etc., being welded together. What an absolute lack of proper research! I got to listen to Ian Callum last September along with other members of the design team for the DB7 which was the first car to carry the V12. What an amazing engine! And no, it is not what everyone claims. The design came from the concept of two duratecs, in theory, but was a completely new engine. Also, using Motor-craft alternator and other things is nothing new in the exotic car world. Companies use other parts-bin stuff all the time. This has been going on for decades! The Aston Martin DB4 and DB5 used a Karmann (made by Hella) boot/trunk latch and light, among other things...
It's amazing how fast people click on these videos. I clicked "LIKE" when it was 100 and made it 101 likes. Immediately I refreshed the page (it took one second) and that fast there was 207 LIKES!!!!!
i think it's a bit more complicated than that. youtube don't refresh it's view counts and likes every second. it just changed as you refreshed. also, it's hardly amazing. most people are on lock-down, so youtube in general is seeing way more traffic.
@@galacticcaveman4045 Your presumed knowledge of matters concerning youtube appears impressive.
@@unclewilbur8976it's not impressive at all. it's called common sense.
Awesome video. Love how you took the engine out, real smart. I’ve been telling Freddie to remove both his lambo engines and he just plays with it. Thanks for sharing.
Imagine going to work every day to build Aston martins. You work your ass off and are very proud of your work. Then one of your cars gets bought by a RUclips personality and you think you’ll finally get your name out there.... then the RUclipsr proceeds to call you burn hard and chuckles at your name. RIP
That Aston is stunning. I think of all your purchases, I think i'd be begging for the keys to either this, your Bentley or your Esprit. Nothing else comes close to the Aston.
Many vehicles drop the window a little before opening the door, seals the window better on frame less doors. The Mustang has been doing it for over 10 years.
did you say *LaMbOrGhInI!?!?*
How do you find a mechanic that'll let you help when doing work on your car? I love working on cars and occasionally flip them, but I don't have any air tools or a lift so alot of things take more time and effort to do, I wish I could find someone like the car wizard
Mr. Waffles become a repeat customer, start blogging, befriend mechanic, ask if he can be a part of your channel for a cut of your profits. The easier way is to become good friends with someone that happens to be a mechanic haha
WHEN THE ENGINE WAS COMING OUT YOU WERE MAKING SOUNDS LIKE CAR IS GIVING A BABY ENGINE
I thought that was a fart noise.
