It depends on what you do from watching youtube. If you use it as motivation and act on it then yt is good. If you spend toooo much time watching, trying to get motivated and do nothing, then yea yt is no good for you.
Mate, I recently moved into a 2 bedroom apartment with my son, after living in emergency accommodation because I lost everything in a flood two years ago. I am just happy to have a place for me and my boy. But I have to say I am stoked for you and Hannah. Well done young man. I love all your videos and your attitude towards life. You inspire this 50 year old Aussie bloke to chase my dreams. Good on you Mat.
Because he gloats, would you have a freind that gloats and constantly tells you how well he’s done……. Be humble Be thankful, Gloating is for the stupid
@@thecoolestkidinkalkallo9621 i don't really know how you can say matt gloats. He's just really proud of himself and tryting to tell a story here. Yes he tells us he got succesfull in this story, but doesn't do this in a braggy way at all.
@@thecoolestkidinkalkallo9621he’s explaining his story to the people who think he’s been giving everything . That’s not gloating or boasting. That’s just being proud of your achievements and success
Can’t see gloating here, just proud of his achievements. Out of the kindness of his heart he chooses to show people like you so you can go and achieve the same.
Such a great watch pal and never knew the full story! When I saw you doing 🍩 my immediate thought is “there goes the neighbourhood” but it don’t matter as you have no neighbours lol. Congrats pal 👏🏼
Just WOW..... as a 52 year old petrol head, dad of 3 boys all I can say is that you (Mat), Hannah, and the whole team are an inspiration. I don't usually write in the comments on videos I watch but felt compelled to on this one. WELL DONE you are true;y living the dream and living proof that hard work pays off. You are totally living my dream too. Much respect and love to y'all. I love all of your videos, including the house renovation stuff. Keep at it Mat!!
All that stuff is amazing but Hanna is what makes it all great. Having someone to share it with that’s what makes it perfect. Y’all enjoy ,I’m happy for you.
I had no idea about your backstory. I found you about 6-9 months ago. Absolutely love your story! You never half-ass any of your work, and persist in working all the way through every problem you encounter. Congratulations!
Your lady is a pure example of with you at the bottom all the way to the top. So happy for you guys honestly & your day. Couldn't be a more deserving family of the success than you guys!
I love this channel! What makes it so watchable is that, it's not American and Mat and his family/crew are so humble and relatable, please don't change!
Matt, I’m a man in his 60’s, I watch everything you put out. You are a genuine positive roll model, not just for the younger generation, but for older guys like myself. You have no edge, or agenda, if anyone has any issue to where you are to today, well, they’re the one with the issue. Your whole team you have are awesome, but the two people everyone would want in their life, your dad, and Hanna. People take so much, not many give back, but you do. Keep going mate
Well said Paul, and yes, opportunities are for taking, they only come round once. I’m 70 now but I was just 30 only a short time ago. Grab life with both hands Mat and darling Hannah! 🙏😍
This video made me cry. I was going into depression 10 years ago when I lost my son my world changed completely. I'm still fighting. I've been sober for 8 years. In reality, this video is inspiring me and opening my eyes because you really could have done it and there are many. people who can do it and have done it why not me I am a number one fan I do not miss any of your videos forgive me English I do not speak much English I am Puerto Rican but I have lived in New York for 10 years You are my inspiration I would like to one day to be able to talk to you on the phone or to be able to see you in person that is a dream just a dream but I just think out loud that God bless you and continue to give you much success in your life and health above all....
I can honestly say I don't think I've ever been this genuinely happy for a 'stranger' before. The fact you're still so humble about this all shows that this has happened to the right person. Congrats to you and Hannah! 🎉
Took the words out of my mouth! I've only been following your content for the past two months, but already hooked! That's down to you as a person (And Hannah, Tony & the other Matt) being so genuine and humble about what you do! Congratulations!!!
Straight facts! When you have over 2M genuine subs where your audience actually watches the content you create because your awesome, you deserve all of life’s pearls! Congrats Matt!!
Hey mat I’m following you all the way from Trinidad and Tobago I must say that your videos are an inspiration to me keep up the good work look forward for your next video with the Rolls Royce
Thanks Hannah for crashing the TT. I’m so glad it worked out for you Mat. You submit great value and i love the bond between you, your dad, Hannah and your friends. Thanks for been there for us! Lets continue our journey together and grow bigger! Love you guys, thanks for the content. Stay safe and healthy ✌🏼
I’d rather change houses, than changing partners, love seeing You&Hanna going through to this together. I suppose you can build upon your old house, but then it will take a massive renovation for it to be double story or even buying adjoining lands to create larger spaces would probably cost the same if not more expensive to build and finalize. So, Bravo and Brava to both of you, hopefully, really would love to see you really live this house up, creating 8, 10, 20 car garage, and a more refreshed and upgraded look of the main house, higher and higher!
Mat is a class act, so humble and so genuine. It's so obvious he's been raised by a wonderful family. His Dad being featured on the channel says it all, hilarious, always positive and smiling no matter what. Well deserved Mat!
Matt and Hannah - The Aga stove is amazing. Try it out for 6 months before you make a decision. It is a game changer, especially in winter. Love the house. Well done!
Na get rid, they're gutsy as hell whether it's oil or electric, not that Matt's struggling for money of course. I just dismantled one out of our new house, ended up giving it away, nobody wants to buy them due to running costs. Replaced with induction Range, much better.
I've been fixing cars since I was 14, before I could even drive them and to see so many like me who crave the challenges the cars present in this day and age since the cars I tinkered with in the late 80s/early 90s is very inspiring. I'm a bit late to your channel but I am catching up with all of your videos Mat and I am gobsmacked and in awe in what you've learned and accomplished in a relatively short space of time, its mindblowing. We are strangers yet from what I've seen of you, your family and team you deserve every bit of success you work for! I watch lots of channels and they are all brilliant in their own right but I don't think I've seen a channel like yours where no matter how daunting-there is constant laughing and having fun which is what it should all be about. You should be proud that the fun you have projects to others that are not having such an good time and indeed lifts them to succeed. Enjoy what you've earned and never be ashamed of it! It helps others more than you know👌
That ménage is calling for a half pipe, a grind rail and a couple of cheeky little ramps!! Massive congratulations to you Mat, Hannah, dad and co... and thank you for taking us on this journey with you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
8 Minutes in, this is not a video, this is a well made movie, a documentation. Must have been a big job editing all of this. Congrats Mat ! You earned it and you deserve it. All of it.
Dear Mr. Armstrong, greetings from Germany. Please accept my sincerest congratulations on everything you have achieved. It has been a true pleasure viewing all the videos you have created thus far. But the greatest pleasure for me has been and will continue to be to see you thrive in your life, whilst living out your passion for cars. Your good natured attitude is also rooted in overcoming difficulties and never taking things for granted. I wish you all the best in all your endeavors and remain, with kind regards, TH
A lot of people could be so jealous of what you’ve both achieved, but you come across so humble. I’ve been watching your journey from the start and it so heart warming seeing you, Hanna, your dad and all your friends smiling and just having a great time living your best life. Can wait to see what’s next. Congratulations 👍🏻
I dont usually comment on vids but as an old follower i gotta say Mat I feel so proud of you Hannah and your dad. People like you, Tavarish, Hoovies... have taken us on such an amazing voyage thought these years. Watching your channel grow, always a smile on your face, always so positive even when crashing, its been amazing. Cant wait to watch more adventures!
The self taught car stuff and the self thought video editing is only one part Matt, the fact you are really likeable and seem like a genuinely nice guy is the reason you are successful. (Also your dad is a comedy gem)
Part of Matt’s Success is he’s one of the most genuine and nicest personalities on RUclips. You can’t fake it. I don’t even know him but I can tell he’s a great guy. Great things happen to good people
House and gardens look amazing, but once Hannah and yourself put your own touch and design on it, it will be super amazing. What an achievement in 4 years. I am looking forward to the next chapters in both your adventures
The biggest reason why I love Matt’s channel; is because he’s raw. He’s open. I remember the days when you working on the Bentley. I’m happy for you mate, I hope you keep on growing and enjoying life.
Hi mat when are you going to get married ema is a keeper you two are so good together congratulations on the new house you deserve it for all the hard work you put in good luck in the future
Probably the best self made story of any "car guy" and it is pretty clear you would be successful at any venture you take on. Sure, there are other automotive youtubers, but it is so great to see a such a good guy succeed. My favorite part is that you brought your dad in and get to work with him everyday :) I have a similar story on the house journey and tackling a bigger home, is a great move. I wish you all the best, congratulations and don't be Cheeky :)
Your dad is the happiest most proudest man alive all because of you. Keep up being a beacon of hope to us small mechanics out there. You are amazing mate ❤️
I said to my 7 year old granddaughter yesterday, when she was feeling a little low, that everything would be ok because she was loved, cared for and she had a good heart. I am happy for both of you for 2 reasons. 1, you've earnt it and 2, because you both have a good heart. You're lovely people. So well done and carry on the good work. 🤗
Matt-you are not dreaming. This is the culmination of years of consistent, dedicated work. You don’t have to live in disbelief when you’ve believed in yourself and believed in your dreams. Now’s the time to enjoy the fruit of your labor and be proud of yourself for your accomplishments.
I refused £80,000 job offer after seeing your video. Your story is amazing. I always believed you need to take risks in life. I moved to the UK 8 years ago. With no money, no job offer and I didn't speak English. Just passion for IT. Started working on a Polo Farm - Cleaning horse sh*t 16h a day and 14 miles away from my accommodation. No car at that time just an old bike picked up from next door for free. I worked hard, learned new skills and became a manager in logistics. I opened my own business recently in IT. I refused a good job to follow my dreams. Thank you for the inspiration. I wish you the best and more success in the future.
@johnashton4776 I was doing online courses, some of them for free, and gained experience, plus I was working extra hard as a manager. I was first in last out. I took any opportunity for progression and learning new things.
Man, when you hit the tunnel with the Murcie, I just shed a tear... It's a strange emotional moment and I loved it. You're a blessing man! Lots of love from the Netherlands!
Congrats Mat!! You made me realise I need to chase my dreams, told my parents a week ago I want to quit my applied architecture study and start working for my goal: becoming an automotive photographer. I've been in love with cars since forever and I feel like this is what I love doing the most! So I'm going to work, and hopefully I can do evening education to get a diploma in photography and built my way up so I can make a living out of it. And one day, I want to take pictures for you and your dad so you'll have another great memory with your cars and with your dad. Keep it up Mat!!!
You dont need a diploma in photography, clients care about your portfolio and not a piece of paper! Your skills will decide how successful you get, not the theoretical knowledge :)
You dont need to quit your study to focus on what you want to do. You have so much free time as a student you can do anything. Otherwise you will find yourself working (the same time that you would have spend studying) in a shitty restaurant. Do both brother. Goodluck
Keep up with the study and just get out there and do photography at the same time. All the time you spend on youtube could be put to Photography instead for example
Matt - you’re not “flexing”…you’ve earned it. I want you to succeed, I enjoy living vicariously through your success. You’re an inspiration to anyone that watches you. Seriously - what does the dang shirt say…”Hard Work Beats Talent!” Thank you for sharing with us. 👍😎
I am so proud of you and your family. Love your dad and his laugh, also Hanna is amazing. You have the best team and you explain everything step by step, love you guys, and hopefully soon we can see little children running around your living room.
Well done chasing your dreams Matt . I left the UK (Wellingborough), moved to Australia , set up businesses worked hard , bought waterfront on a tiny island and recently bought a 53ft Trimaran yacht . YOU CAN DO IT !
I'm a lifelong car and motorcycle guy who grew up working in home remodeling and riding BMX bikes, and while I mostly ride MTB now I still hit the park every now and again. So you could say this channel is made for me! Glad for your, Hannah, and Your dad's happiness.
This is heartwarming and inspiring Matt. You your Dad and Hannah have achieved so much just through hard work and talent, and long may this continue.... Keep the videos coming...
After a long time of watching you grow, you inspired me to start my own youtube channel. Thank you for that! You have worked so hard and you deserve everything you've achieved, keep the momentum going!
I had tears in my eyes watching this!! I'm a 55 year old man! Thankfully, Nico Leonard breaking down in his Ferrari, brought my wife and i to your channel and we have binge watched since. Our sincere congratulations to you all, what an amazing team, an awful lot of hard work has brought you to where you are today. 3 miilion subs will happen very soon. Thanks for everything you have done for us, (your youtube community). All the very best, Mark and Kim, United Kingdom.
Mat, Your journey is so inspiring, but we see 2 things in you: 1-You work hard like crazy, and 2-you are just a genuine person. I am so happy for you and your family, you deserve, keep it up.!
Wow Matt I just started following you. Your story is an inspiration to anyone anywhere in the world. You taking risks and putting your faith into practice changed everything for you and your family.
Mat, as a grade 6/7 teacher, I'm always trying to inspire my students to think outside the box, work hard, and be problem-solvers. I showed this to my students today as an example of what success looks like. I admire your talent, but that came through hard work, didn't it? HWBT I wish you and your crew all the best and I hope to inspire a few of my students through your example.
I don't have time for pointless content on social media. However, I constantly keep an eye out for fresh videos about Mat. My brother, I've been watching you since the Audi TT. Congratulations. You are a wonderful man who deserves everything that comes your way. Your content is inspiring and joyful. Best wishes to you, mat! One day, maybe, I will get to meet you in person and win a car from you!
Congrats, Mat! Can’t believe I remember when you were at 200k followers, and now you’re over 3.56 million! Keep up the awesome work - thanks for always bringing us along on the journey!
At the end, when you said mention the date and told us it's never too late or we are too old really got me in the feels... My nose was itchy like I was going to cry of joy and motivation. Thank you Mat for being such a genuine person and motivate us all to aim for the best of us. We love you man. Oh, and I would totally watch you take care of cows and horses as side content.
You know the part I love the most? Seeing him and Hannah (I hope i spelled it correct) together from the start. Their lifestyle changed, got money and everything but stayed faithful to each other.
Yes Mat worked hard and started from the bottom with very little. But remember brother success isn't measured by how many material possessions you have. It's measured by the skills and relationships you have obtained along the way.
And you. He wouldn't be anything without the fans of the channel. Let's be honest. He had nothing until you guys came along. It's took him 4 years to get more than 99% of his channel followers will get in a life time ☠️
One of the things I respect about you Mat, is that you started from nothing but still give back to your subscribers/people around…So proud of you bro!!! You deserve every ounce of admiration, totally inspiring you are “go with that GUT feeling” that line will stick with me forever. Hope I get chance to visit England so you can give me a personal tour of your new dream home and my favorite builds…big up u self!!!👍🏾❤️🇯🇲
Congrats Mat!!! i wish my son could be here to see what you have achieved unfortunately he passed away. Hope you everything of the best🙏🙏 FROM JOHANNNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA
Also......please watch out for ASBESTOS in that house mate!!! Especially in that outside toilet. It may sound like im boring on, but honestly, best to get it all checked out
Now it’s time to build your dream workshop at the bottom of your garden. I think that should be your next plan that would be insane working from home, all your dream, cars and your dream workshop, your dream house, your living life, and it’s a huge inspiration to me and Mum X.
I only found your channels less than a week ago. I wasn’t into cars but I’m obsessed with your energy and enthusiasm and wouldn’t mind a fancy car now (maybe). Your comment that you are never too young or old (I’m the latter) to start chasing your dreams is my new motto. I’ve subscribed, watched and liked as much as chasing my dreams will allow.
Don't dump the Aga until you have spent a whole winter with it!!! Or, turn it off in January and feel the difference being on makes. Crazy even to consider throwing it out.
Your videos are one of my fave to watch on RUclips. A genuine fun, friendly and down to earth guy with massive amounts of drive showing how dreams are made. Absolutely well deserved Matt and thanks for sharing 😎
Mat I am Raul from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 I Love what you do I watch your episodes every day and working with your Dad and wife that is absolutely amazing. God Bless Bro.
Matt & Hannah you two have worked hard and deserve to have a little joy in your own lives love to see this it's fantastic to see that hard work actually does pay off congratulations guys hope you have many happy years there.
And the credit goes to Hannah for crashing that TT to make this all happen. Congratulations Mat Its just the beginning, many more to come. Stay blessed 🙏🏼
Isn’t it funny how life turns out… they probably thought it was the end of the world when it was crashed, but it turned out to be the best thing to ever happen to them😅
Congratulations to you all - I’ve been here since randomly finding the TT video and like so many has been ever since - Id never work on a car but during COVID I got some tools and became fixing up my mod which I still have all inspired by you - you authentic nature is the secret to your success Matt don’t ever lose that - there one thing missing tho you need to buy back that TT 👍🏾
Well done young man! You’ve worked hard for every penny, enjoy it. Amazing what focus and the power of perseverance can achieve. Hard work does beat talent (but you’re talented too!)
Please keep us up to date on any projects that you do at the house. I would love to see if you one day get a garage addition or whatever else you guys see fit to add/change. Congrats!
I remember watching the TT video years ago, I knew the very basics about cars back then but was hooked. Fast forward to now and I’ve had the confidence to do my own work on my cars (with a little help from RUclips) You actually gave me the confidence to bite the bullet and try do it myself as I couldn’t afford trips to the garage (would have been a lot owning an Insignia). Luckily haven’t got that problem as just bought a brand new car so warranty for 3 years. You deserve everything you have, it’s massive how far you’ve come from that first TT Video. 👏👏👏👏
I haven't been around for the whole journey but I've been here long enough to say that you 110% deserve this. Feeling terrified for today's job interview (been out of work for 4 years now due to illness) but seeing you go for your dreams inspired me to make it work.
This is what selfmade is. Mat U are such a inspierment and hat off to you. U still standing with the feets on the ground. I wish u could do my little renault clio before I die. =)
Mat you don't know me from Adam but I found you last week and have been binge watching your channel like a 8 year old on a sugar high. I've even introduced you to other gear heads. However after spanning up down your RUclips page I saw a transition from BMX to BMW and was wondering what your 'story' was. --- This video is not only a great video that fills the gaps, but gives you INSANE props in my book. ----- Keep up the great work. We are all rooting for you, bro. :)
Just wanted to say THANK YOU! I'm sober enough to recognize that you are very lucky. I have smaller dreams but I'm working on them on a daily base. Enjoy your new house!!
Hi Mr Armstrong. Congratulations on your and Hanna new house. Now that you have all the space you need and some more . It will be a good idea to build your dream garage/storage/studio on your new property. Where you can store, fix, rebiuld and making video of your car's. It will also a good idea to have lifts like your friend Tavarish. Then you can store car's on top of each other. The benefits of this is you don't have to pay for storage units and can not get into a motor vehicle accident.
Congratulations on your new home. This is my first video. What a great introduction to your journey. Got here thanks to the RR collaboration with Freddie. So that works. I have very fond memories of taking possession of every home I have ever owned. It is a very special moment that you don't forget. Good advice. Enjoy it in the moment as life is short. Having someone you love and filling your life with experiences is the key to a happy life.
Super proud of you buddy. Also I'm moving in.
FIRST and you’re moving in from America?
Does that mean Jack will also move into your new house in Florida 😂
@@richiethev4623no Jack moves with Freddie and Mat
Plot twist Freddy buys Matt’s old house to do it up 🤣
Neigh Freddie hold-on de Horses... you can move into the annexe aka the stables
My wife said: “watching RUclips will get you nowhere”… but today I’m proud to say it got Mat a new house! Thank you for all the content

Yes but he bought the house not you, she has a point..... Happy for Mat though

Matt and Hannah - The Aga stove is amazing. Try it out for 6 months before you make a decision. It is a game changer, especially in winter. Love the house. Well done!

I agree. Ours heats our whole kitchen
keep the stove!!!
And I bet weighs at least a half a tonne
Na get rid, they're gutsy as hell whether it's oil or electric, not that Matt's struggling for money of course. I just dismantled one out of our new house, ended up giving it away, nobody wants to buy them due to running costs. Replaced with induction Range, much better.
You’ve had a phenomenal journey Mat! No need to explain yourself, we know how hard you’ve worked for this 🔥
I've been fixing cars since I was 14, before I could even drive them and to see so many like me who crave the challenges the cars present in this day and age since the cars I tinkered with in the late 80s/early 90s is very inspiring. I'm a bit late to your channel but I am catching up with all of your videos Mat and I am gobsmacked and in awe in what you've learned and accomplished in a relatively short space of time, its mindblowing. We are strangers yet from what I've seen of you, your family and team you deserve every bit of success you work for! I watch lots of channels and they are all brilliant in their own right but I don't think I've seen a channel like yours where no matter how daunting-there is constant laughing and having fun which is what it should all be about. You should be proud that the fun you have projects to others that are not having such an good time and indeed lifts them to succeed. Enjoy what you've earned and never be ashamed of it! It helps others more than you know👌
That ménage is calling for a half pipe, a grind rail and a couple of cheeky little ramps!!
Massive congratulations to you Mat, Hannah, dad and co... and thank you for taking us on this journey with you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Good Achievement and good work
For me, it’s how you are with Hannah and your dad. I love it. Well done, Matt. Truly.
Its so awesome that you invited all of us in, not in a braggy but a completely humble way. Happy for you guys. Very very cool.
I love these guys. The car stuff is great, but the Mat and Hannah story is even better. The nicest, most genuine people on YT. Long may it continue.
You and Hannah are absolute grafters Mat. You both 100% deserve the success that comes your way!
One of my favourite things is, being a dad myself, is seeing you and your dad working together it's just brilliant.
8 Minutes in, this is not a video, this is a well made movie, a documentation. Must have been a big job editing all of this.
Congrats Mat ! You earned it and you deserve it. All of it.
Was better than an episode of Cribs 😂
Dear Mr. Armstrong,
greetings from Germany.
Please accept my sincerest congratulations on everything you have achieved.
It has been a true pleasure viewing all the videos you have created thus far.
But the greatest pleasure for me has been and will continue to be to see you thrive in your life, whilst living out your passion for cars.
Your good natured attitude is also rooted in overcoming difficulties and never taking things for granted.
I wish you all the best in all your endeavors and remain, with kind regards,
TH
A lot of people could be so jealous of what you’ve both achieved, but you come across so humble. I’ve been watching your journey from the start and it so heart warming seeing you, Hanna, your dad and all your friends smiling and just having a great time living your best life. Can wait to see what’s next. Congratulations 👍🏻
I dont usually comment on vids but as an old follower i gotta say Mat I feel so proud of you Hannah and your dad. People like you, Tavarish, Hoovies... have taken us on such an amazing voyage thought these years. Watching your channel grow, always a smile on your face, always so positive even when crashing, its been amazing. Cant wait to watch more adventures!
The self taught car stuff and the self thought video editing is only one part Matt, the fact you are really likeable and seem like a genuinely nice guy is the reason you are successful.
(Also your dad is a comedy gem)
Taught* seem*
Part of Matt’s Success is he’s one of the most genuine and nicest personalities on RUclips. You can’t fake it. I don’t even know him but I can tell he’s a great guy. Great things happen to good people
House and gardens look amazing, but once Hannah and yourself put your own touch and design on it, it will be super amazing. What an achievement in 4 years. I am looking forward to the next chapters in both your adventures
The biggest reason why I love Matt’s channel; is because he’s raw. He’s open.
I remember the days when you working on the Bentley. I’m happy for you mate, I hope you keep on growing and enjoying life.
Hi mat when are you going to get married ema is a keeper you two are so good together congratulations on the new house you deserve it for all the hard work you put in good luck in the future
congratulations bro, really got goosebumps
this also couldn’t be possible without hannah and your dad’s support, they always supported in every step
Yep,Dads Super Cool
So glad he achieved all that; all his hard work paid off. And love how humble he is several times throughout the video about this new life.
Probably the best self made story of any "car guy" and it is pretty clear you would be successful at any venture you take on. Sure, there are other automotive youtubers, but it is so great to see a such a good guy succeed. My favorite part is that you brought your dad in and get to work with him everyday :) I have a similar story on the house journey and tackling a bigger home, is a great move. I wish you all the best, congratulations and don't be Cheeky :)
Your dad is the happiest most proudest man alive all because of you. Keep up being a beacon of hope to us small mechanics out there. You are amazing mate ❤️
Nice observation!
I said to my 7 year old granddaughter yesterday, when she was feeling a little low, that everything would be ok because she was loved, cared for and she had a good heart. I am happy for both of you for 2 reasons. 1, you've earnt it and 2, because you both have a good heart. You're lovely people. So well done and carry on the good work. 🤗
Mortgage free???
You deserve ALL the goodness you get, Mat + Hannah! ❤ from Boston
Matt-you are not dreaming. This is the culmination of years of consistent, dedicated work. You don’t have to live in disbelief when you’ve believed in yourself and believed in your dreams. Now’s the time to enjoy the fruit of your labor and be proud of yourself for your accomplishments.
I refused £80,000 job offer after seeing your video. Your story is amazing. I always believed you need to take risks in life. I moved to the UK 8 years ago. With no money, no job offer and I didn't speak English. Just passion for IT. Started working on a Polo Farm - Cleaning horse sh*t 16h a day and 14 miles away from my accommodation. No car at that time just an old bike picked up from next door for free. I worked hard, learned new skills and became a manager in logistics. I opened my own business recently in IT. I refused a good job to follow my dreams. Thank you for the inspiration. I wish you the best and more success in the future.
Where did you move from? Your story is inspirational
Nice got degrees yet the job market is shit.
Please go to 6:44 or 6:45
@@ukfemaleangler6513 I moved from Romania
@johnashton4776 I was doing online courses, some of them for free, and gained experience, plus I was working extra hard as a manager. I was first in last out. I took any opportunity for progression and learning new things.
Man, when you hit the tunnel with the Murcie, I just shed a tear... It's a strange emotional moment and I loved it. You're a blessing man! Lots of love from the Netherlands!
I didn’t even know your story. It really is a hard worked fairytale. You deserve every penny of your success mate!!!!
Congratulations, Matt. You and Hanna deserve all the blessings and happiness in the world. You have earned it.
Congrats Mat!! You made me realise I need to chase my dreams, told my parents a week ago I want to quit my applied architecture study and start working for my goal: becoming an automotive photographer. I've been in love with cars since forever and I feel like this is what I love doing the most! So I'm going to work, and hopefully I can do evening education to get a diploma in photography and built my way up so I can make a living out of it. And one day, I want to take pictures for you and your dad so you'll have another great memory with your cars and with your dad. Keep it up Mat!!!
You dont need a diploma in photography, clients care about your portfolio and not a piece of paper! Your skills will decide how successful you get, not the theoretical knowledge :)
You dont need to quit your study to focus on what you want to do. You have so much free time as a student you can do anything. Otherwise you will find yourself working (the same time that you would have spend studying) in a shitty restaurant. Do both brother. Goodluck
Go for it dude😊
Keep up with the study and just get out there and do photography at the same time.
All the time you spend on youtube could be put to Photography instead for example
Great to read of ur ambition and desires from life. Go and get it bud! 🙏😉
Matt - you’re not “flexing”…you’ve earned it. I want you to succeed, I enjoy living vicariously through your success. You’re an inspiration to anyone that watches you. Seriously - what does the dang shirt say…”Hard Work Beats Talent!” Thank you for sharing with us. 👍😎
I am so proud of you and your family. Love your dad and his laugh, also Hanna is amazing. You have the best team and you explain everything step by step, love you guys, and hopefully soon we can see little children running around your living room.
Well done chasing your dreams Matt . I left the UK (Wellingborough), moved to Australia , set up businesses worked hard , bought waterfront on a tiny island and recently bought a 53ft Trimaran yacht . YOU CAN DO IT !
I'm a lifelong car and motorcycle guy who grew up working in home remodeling and riding BMX bikes, and while I mostly ride MTB now I still hit the park every now and again. So you could say this channel is made for me! Glad for your, Hannah, and Your dad's happiness.
This is heartwarming and inspiring Matt. You your Dad and Hannah have achieved so much just through hard work and talent, and long may this continue.... Keep the videos coming...
After a long time of watching you grow, you inspired me to start my own youtube channel. Thank you for that! You have worked so hard and you deserve everything you've achieved, keep the momentum going!
No way you moved into my uncles old house! Congratulations man, Proud of you. Also, the ‘drift paddock, was a lot of fun.
Was he right about the conreted area being a pool?
I had tears in my eyes watching this!! I'm a 55 year old man!
Thankfully, Nico Leonard breaking down in his Ferrari, brought my wife and i to your channel and we have binge watched since. Our sincere congratulations to you all, what an amazing team, an awful lot of hard work has brought you to where you are today.
3 miilion subs will happen very soon. Thanks for everything you have done for us, (your youtube community).
All the very best, Mark and Kim, United Kingdom.
😂😂😂
Mat, Your journey is so inspiring, but we see 2 things in you:
1-You work hard like crazy, and
2-you are just a genuine person.
I am so happy for you and your family, you deserve, keep it up.!
Wow Matt I just started following you. Your story is an inspiration to anyone anywhere in the world.
You taking risks and putting your faith into practice changed everything for you and your family.
Mat, as a grade 6/7 teacher, I'm always trying to inspire my students to think outside the box, work hard, and be problem-solvers. I showed this to my students today as an example of what success looks like. I admire your talent, but that came through hard work, didn't it? HWBT I wish you and your crew all the best and I hope to inspire a few of my students through your example.
Awesome teacher right there! Thank you 🙏
I drove past this house everyday on my way home from work when it was for sale. Can’t believe you bought it, it’s a stunning home, enjoy!
how much was it up for?
@@RibenRat1.6 mil
You don't drive past it now that he's bought it?
Drive past it with caution now 😂
@@TunaNoCrustuk which is about what gives you a garage in London
I don't have time for pointless content on social media. However, I constantly keep an eye out for fresh videos about Mat. My brother, I've been watching you since the Audi TT. Congratulations. You are a wonderful man who deserves everything that comes your way. Your content is inspiring and joyful. Best wishes to you, mat! One day, maybe, I will get to meet you in person and win a car from you!
Congrats, Mat! Can’t believe I remember when you were at 200k followers, and now you’re over 3.56 million! Keep up the awesome work - thanks for always bringing us along on the journey!
Inspiring. May you Hannah, your family, friends and crew continue to be blessed.
At the end, when you said mention the date and told us it's never too late or we are too old really got me in the feels... My nose was itchy like I was going to cry of joy and motivation. Thank you Mat for being such a genuine person and motivate us all to aim for the best of us. We love you man.
Oh, and I would totally watch you take care of cows and horses as side content.
Another RUclips channel - Armstrong's Farm 🤣
You know the part I love the most? Seeing him and Hannah (I hope i spelled it correct) together from the start. Their lifestyle changed, got money and everything but stayed faithful to each other.
Well we don’t know that but get what your saying 😂😂
Joined the journey during the TT years when I bought one 4 years ago and keep coming back for the content. Glad you're doing well.
Yes Mat worked hard and started from the bottom with very little. But remember brother success isn't measured by how many material possessions you have. It's measured by the skills and relationships you have obtained along the way.
I'd say you couldn't have done it all without the support from Hannah and your Dad.
Well done Matt!!
Your hard work paid off!!
And you. He wouldn't be anything without the fans of the channel. Let's be honest. He had nothing until you guys came along. It's took him 4 years to get more than 99% of his channel followers will get in a life time ☠️
Very true mate, very true 👍
One of the things I respect about you Mat, is that you started from nothing but still give back to your subscribers/people around…So proud of you bro!!! You deserve every ounce of admiration, totally inspiring you are “go with that GUT feeling” that line will stick with me forever. Hope I get chance to visit England so you can give me a personal tour of your new dream home and my favorite builds…big up u self!!!👍🏾❤️🇯🇲
All you are doing is giving us encourging vibes to move forward on our dreams as well. Well done and you deserve the fruits of your labours. Clap!!
Congrats Mat!!! i wish my son could be here to see what you have achieved unfortunately he passed away. Hope you everything of the best🙏🙏 FROM JOHANNNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA
Also......please watch out for ASBESTOS in that house mate!!!
Especially in that outside toilet.
It may sound like im boring on, but honestly, best to get it all checked out
don't scare others Asbestos is dangerous only if you handle it unskillfully, otherwise it's a completely normal building material
good point - and lead paint
Now it’s time to build your dream workshop at the bottom of your garden. I think that should be your next plan that would be insane working from home, all your dream, cars and your dream workshop, your dream house, your living life, and it’s a huge inspiration to me and Mum X.
I only found your channels less than a week ago. I wasn’t into cars but I’m obsessed with your energy and enthusiasm and wouldn’t mind a fancy car now (maybe). Your comment that you are never too young or old (I’m the latter) to start chasing your dreams is my new motto. I’ve subscribed, watched and liked as much as chasing my dreams will allow.
Don't dump the Aga until you have spent a whole winter with it!!!
Or, turn it off in January and feel the difference being on makes.
Crazy even to consider throwing it out.
They will probably sell it to be fair
Your videos are one of my fave to watch on RUclips. A genuine fun, friendly and down to earth guy with massive amounts of drive showing how dreams are made. Absolutely well deserved Matt and thanks for sharing 😎
congrats mat, your work ethic is insane and you show no signs of slowing down, you deserve all the success🙌
Mat I am Raul from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 I Love what you do I watch your episodes every day and working with your Dad and wife that is absolutely amazing. God Bless Bro.
Matt & Hannah you two have worked hard and deserve to have a little joy in your own lives love to see this it's fantastic to see that hard work actually does pay off congratulations guys hope you have many happy years there.
@@24k__J He provided entertainment for millions over 4 years. Not everyone can do that.
And the credit goes to Hannah for crashing that TT to make this all happen. Congratulations Mat
Its just the beginning, many more to come.
Stay blessed 🙏🏼
Isn’t it funny how life turns out… they probably thought it was the end of the world when it was crashed, but it turned out to be the best thing to ever happen to them😅
Congratulations to you all - I’ve been here since randomly finding the TT video and like so many has been ever since - Id never work on a car but during COVID I got some tools and became fixing up my mod which I still have all inspired by you - you authentic nature is the secret to your success Matt don’t ever lose that - there one thing missing tho you need to buy back that TT 👍🏾
Well done young man! You’ve worked hard for every penny, enjoy it. Amazing what focus and the power of perseverance can achieve. Hard work does beat talent (but you’re talented too!)
Please keep us up to date on any projects that you do at the house. I would love to see if you one day get a garage addition or whatever else you guys see fit to add/change.
Congrats!
I remember watching the TT video years ago, I knew the very basics about cars back then but was hooked. Fast forward to now and I’ve had the confidence to do my own work on my cars (with a little help from RUclips)
You actually gave me the confidence to bite the bullet and try do it myself as I couldn’t afford trips to the garage (would have been a lot owning an Insignia).
Luckily haven’t got that problem as just bought a brand new car so warranty for 3 years.
You deserve everything you have, it’s massive how far you’ve come from that first TT Video. 👏👏👏👏
I haven't been around for the whole journey but I've been here long enough to say that you 110% deserve this. Feeling terrified for today's job interview (been out of work for 4 years now due to illness) but seeing you go for your dreams inspired me to make it work.
This is what selfmade is. Mat U are such a inspierment and hat off to you. U still standing with the feets on the ground. I wish u could do my little renault clio before I die. =)
Congrats on all the success!! Absolutely love that you get to work with you Dad everyday and have fun doing it!!!
Omg the AGA! PLEASE don’t lose it 💔 it’s the heart and centrepiece of a country kitchen! Congratulations you guys amazing to see the progress!! ❤❤
Massive congratulations Mat, this is all thoroughly deserved. Love the new house and wishing you and Hannah, years of happiness in your new home.
Mat you don't know me from Adam but I found you last week and have been binge watching your channel like a 8 year old on a sugar high. I've even introduced you to other gear heads. However after spanning up down your RUclips page I saw a transition from BMX to BMW and was wondering what your 'story' was. --- This video is not only a great video that fills the gaps, but gives you INSANE props in my book. ----- Keep up the great work. We are all rooting for you, bro. :)
Matt, how about Hannah starts a channel where she documents your house upgrades? I’m sure many of us would tune in for that!
Just wanted to say THANK YOU! I'm sober enough to recognize that you are very lucky. I have smaller dreams but I'm working on them on a daily base. Enjoy your new house!!
Hi Mr Armstrong. Congratulations on your and Hanna new house. Now that you have all the space you need and some more . It will be a good idea to build your dream garage/storage/studio on your new property. Where you can store, fix, rebiuld and making video of your car's. It will also a good idea to have lifts like your friend Tavarish. Then you can store car's on top of each other. The benefits of this is you don't have to pay for storage units and can not get into a motor vehicle accident.
Congratulations on your new home.
This is my first video. What a great introduction to your journey. Got here thanks to the RR collaboration with Freddie. So that works.
I have very fond memories of taking possession of every home I have ever owned. It is a very special moment that you don't forget.
Good advice. Enjoy it in the moment as life is short. Having someone you love and filling your life with experiences is the key to a happy life.
