We all love a future classic, and it doesn't get much better than the stunning BMW E46 M3. In this new series that we're kicking off, we invited RUclipsr Mat Armstrong to the Smallest Cog to have his car checked over by Mike and Anthony, and have a chat with Richard. Here's how it went!

My cars don't come up. 1929 Ford, 1930 Ford, 1931 Ford... None of them come up.
I thought this channel was closing down? Explain please
@@777VIV they only closed the website/app... but active on YT and other social media
They are not trustworthy :(
Loved this episode! New channel goal for me and my son! Make it onto a Drivetribe Smallest Cog episode.

Thanks so much for having me! Such a crazy moment for myself 😅 really appreciate it ❤️
What a collab for you
Great video, I remember you starting out … I’m glad it worked out for you in such a short space of time I like the style
Great car man I've always loved the E46 ever since i played NFS MW 2005
Mat, I haven’t heard of you until now, and I got to say keep doing what you’re doing. I can’t leave my car alone when I get it. It’s cool making it personal and my own.
Proud of you brother 💪🏽
Fair play to Hammond for raising the profile of the lad brave enough to do what he loves
Also to all the other lads at the smallest cog 🤝
please do this with Alex from car throttle! his v6 mx5 would make a great episode
He left Car Throttle.
@@QarthCEO true but everyone knows him for car Throttle even though he has recently gone on his own and set up his own channel.
@@QarthCEO he still works for them as a freelancer he’s still part of it
@@kristian5821 Just going by his own words. He said he "left Car Throttle".

Yes! it would be so epic to see Phil in the Smallest Cog!
This is a great addition to the channel! Great job.
The Drivetribe office needs some sound dampening, but otherwise, pretty fantastic!
They should have hoonigan bring their rolls Royce over.
Yeah just need some better audio in Hammonds office, which should be easy enough to do so it's not a big deal.
The Bmw e46 is without a doubt in my opinion one of the most beautiful Bmw's produced and Hammand one of the best presenters in the world!
second best behind the e36
@@ViicSee I agree with you the e46 The transmissions are not the best .
Definitely one of the most beautiful sports cars of all time. And one of the best
Mat's the OG resurrection specialist!... and he's humble, clever, passionate, entertaining, and for real, a true genius. And I like the rapport with Richard after seeing them both talking about the lizard green metallic Murci.👍🖖✌️
"A straight six, there's nothing like that sound".
Completely agree.
I'll have to find his channel.
Man after my own heart.
Modding is essentially a way to prolong the love of your car. Everyone drives a new car with such pride and distinction, which fades over time as you age with the car, and see others around just like it. After a mod of any kind, big or small, engine bay or phone holder, you drive it the next day feeling like you've made it unique again. That, for me, is what it's all about.
Watched mat for a few years now, his channel and confidence has grown so much.... Love his enthusiasm and work ethics he deserves all the success.
Love following Mat's channel. A very likable, humble guy that keeps it real. Follow him, He will not disappoint .
Love how this was shot. Really keeps your attention going back and forth between interview and car scoring. Definitely want to see some more like this!
i love seeing these two together. i’ve been a massive supporter of both for a while and it’s awesome seeing them together
He's a great guy, really genuinely loves what he does. His energy is infectious.
Didn't know this channel existed, very nice of Mat to lend these 3 lads a helping hand
Please do this with auto Alex and his 3.0 v6 mx5
You mean Phil
Well Mat has got a new subscriber. Seems like a really nice guy and I’m really looking forward to seeing his work.
thought the same thing doesn't he remind you of Danny Ricciardo a little?
23:50 - "Break out a spanner...see what falls off..." - this was just the type of encouragement that I needed to get started on taking care of my own car, it's such a great feeling when you can manage a bit of your own auto maintenance!
The fact that it was a manual Laguna Seca made it so much cooler! the SMG gearbox is known to have issues and let's be honest who wouldn't want a manual in one of the best M cars BMW has ever made
I’ve converted my m3 from smg at manual. Here’s my build so far if your interested: ruclips.net/video/BpOasVoBSvU/видео.html Still a long way to go 🤞
@@YeomanDesign will give it a watch 👍🏼
@@thenasman6957 I can’t tell you for sure if it’s a better driving experience because I’ve heard both sides with people loving each, the aftermarket shifter I’ve used feels amazing though 👌
Love this. Wish the other boys would get involved. It's like Top Gear digitised and modernised
Excellent to see Matt on this show, thankyou Richard and team, this Gentleman really is quite unique as to is the Cog.
Cheers to all Andrew 😁
2:15 "Are you Mad?" This has to mean Something by the Madman himself😂
love watching Matt his channel is great and I love his enthusiasm for all his projects
I like the New format.And Matt perfect first guest positive humble talented not afraid to show his mistakes.Also willing to stand by his convictions and do what he wants to his cars 👍
Hey guys. Really like the new video format and Mat does some crazy stuff and just shows that even if you think something is beyond repair, with enough time and effort you can get them up and running again!
Wow… he is nervous… but I like the things he does and his enthusiasm.
If I saw one of my childhood idols and chat with him I would be nervous too ))
he's got a raging case of ADHD, which is ok
I would be nervous, any car lover watched top gear.
@@robletterly6679 I'm curious what makes you say that
@@papa_pt I recognize a lot of his mannerisms, as well as his ethos that nothing is ever quite perfect.
Please keep this segment. Finally seeing Hammond talk about cars with a guest that is still star struck is what I'll sign up for, any day.
I am so much agree with Mat. If you have an old car, you really like.... but you know you enjoy it much more with a (modernizing) modification, I do it!
I like how authentic the guy is, a none conformist enjoying life through his own lens and creativity 😎
I actually surprised that the video is +30 minutes, doesn't even feel that long of a video..
KEEP IT UP DRIVETRIBE! Notifications ON
Love this format but also the fact that Richard Hammond is involved; kudos to him as well. And genius to kick it off with one of BMWs alltime greats. E46 in any body style is still my personal favourite from that maker.
This is the sort of content i was hoping for from this channel from the start. We need more james and jermey on this channel in longer form videos too
AMEN!!! The classic cars are beautiful but, if you want something different, by all means, MAKE IT YOUR OWN!!!!!
My wife loved this car the first year it came out. Just beautifully designed. I think it looks better than everything else that has come after it.
BRAVO, BRAVO, AND BRAVO, from AMERICA!!!
Such a beautiful car, brought back to life, by very capable hands!!!!
Go Matt. Love Drivetribe of course but you are a hero Matt! Great stuff so honoured to witness all this.
This is a great way to critique someone's car, with basic honesty, this should be a lot of fun going forward.
Hello Colin how are you doing. I hope you're doing fine and having a nice weather.
Mat, you got it spot on. A car is individual freedom and a personal expression. You have to have that and feel it to appreciate having and driving your car...
Keep this format rolling because it's brilliant. Didn't get bored or want to stop watching at any point.
Quick sidenote: please, don't go all supercars/hypercar with this. Great cars such as this E46 M3 or a CSL you mentioned would be fantastic, perhaps a unique Impreza or something. Cars which are young classics, future classics, unique cars, etc. would be fantastic. Don't want to see another programme which features a range of modern McLarens, Lamborghinis and so on. Too many of those already.
Matt's such a great guy, watched him start in his drive. Just doing small fixes to full builds now.
Can't believe he would mod an xk120 :0
watching this on my first night homeless. this really got me through
I hope things turn around for you soon
Hamster getting back to his local radio host roots was a nice thing to see.
What a lovely bloke and a great video idea Mike. More please!!!!!
Great video. This whole "the car's had a tough life" thing is a double edged sword. Sure it's been worked hard but it's also been looked after. Regular oil changes, brake pads etc. etc.
I feel what Matt says, love the modified car scene since I was 17. Still modding at 40 :D
WOW, how things have changed .
When I was at school there, an A was about 45/50 !
Other than a classic 911, my favorite car design. It’s beautiful from every angle.
Great video. Mat would bring so much to the channel 👌
19:00 "I modified a Rimac ONCE" 🤣
Great format. Fun, and entertaining! I didn’t realize Richard and I both had a 79 Toyota Corolla for a first car! 😎🌴🤙
Sub zero cool. I had an E46 330ci and loved it but lusted after the M3 and couldnt afford it. It totally pops in the Leguna seca blue.
As a longtime fan of Matt this was actually a really insightful Q&A, great video!
Keep it up boys, this is absolutely great! MORE OF THIS PLEASE!!
Love the vid guys, keep them coming.
Richards chat is an excellent insight into the owner and why the vehicle is the way it is..
This reminds me a lot of Autoweek klokje rond where they'll talk to the owner and do a full inspection on cars with a lot of miles.
rich rebuilds is the RUclipsr mentioned with the v8 tesla
You've made it Mat!
Well done Matt. A significant benchmark you've achieved. Channel is going from strength to strength.
This is the first video of yours I've watched, 🤦🏻♂️and I absolutely loved it! I already sub to Matt Armstrong, big fan of Richard Hammond and now of you and this channel. Great job, seriously 👍🏻👊🏻
“Hammond!” Thank you… Love your content! Thank for you for your personal investments in drivetribe. You are genuinely passionate. 🙏🙏🙏
You’ll have to invite Neil’s AE86 from juicebox when he finishes it because its perfect for this series!!!
Love both channels! great to see matt on
Drive tribe. Seems like a real gent 👍
They’ve got to have the Bad Obsession Motorsport lads on with Project Binky!
Second that
Binky won't be ready for another 5 years though
@@mrstanhope1516 Binky is running and driving these days. It’s interior isn’t done, but who needs an interior when you have a turbo 3S-GTE and a GT-Four AWD system?
@@rucarnuts13 They'll crucify him for no interior and a non standard everything else.
Totally agree with Mat, why drive the same car as your neighbour ? My first car (1980's Celica ST) needed welding and body repairs as well as an engine rebuild. I swapped the pop forward lights to the later pop up lights. Improved air flow into the engine as well as carburetor mod. Badges were also painted. Modified radios and added reverse cameras. Latest mods are adding factory look reverse camera and switching hidden functions / displayed values on my Audi after Audi told me they couldn't or wouldn't do it. Keep going Mat.
Best looking M BMW of all. Specially the pre facelift. Keep this format up!
I drove a ‘02 330ci (vert) pre facelift, and now I have a ‘05 330ci coupe zhp 6spd facelift. I never even dared to look at the facelift cause I loved the pre, but man the side trim, the fender signal diamond, it’s really nice looking. Basically turnin the headlights up.
I don't think the M ever used the facelift looks. During the facelift era there was only a few little changes mechanically I believe, like the rod bearings.
@@naycnay yep there wasn’t a facelift m3, but the sport package/ZHP did. Love the facelift but still want an m3, even though it’s a ‘preface-lift’
Absolutely fantastically great love the new format 👍
Love this idea of scores and such, this could give Richards business the nice little boost he's looking for. Need to get more youtuber cars on the show.
Really liked this format, never seen Matt before, so has introduced me to something new and now I’m looking forward to seeing who’s next! Great job!
Yes @mattarmstrong been waiting for this to drop
Mat is a fantastic guy and his channel is epic!!!!
Yess go on matty boy! Love seeing you put it down for yourself and us leicester lot!
Loved the adverts, really made it special to watch
I too, feel like Matt does. That's why I like custom PC's. I don't want something that looks the same as everyone else's.
Just been binging all mats rebuilds. Ive got a couple cars now and I grew up on top gear. Watching Mat is like all my dreams coming true l😢😅
GREAT vid guys thanks Simon
That Hammond is calling the E46 a BM... Bowel Movement... 🤣
Very Cool. Nice addition. Thanks.
Liking the format and Mat has a new follower
Love the format
M3 is cool I have a 3 series e46 4 door in manual,cool car can't wait to drive mine.
This is one of my favorite videos on the channel.... think you can get two of my favorite Southerners out there?
Whistlin Deisel?
Westin Chamblin?
Mat did have a lovely car, the Lamborghini Gallardo and look what he did to that!! I remember him being so proud he had bought one and then he started meddling with it and it's apparently 'very sick' now.
This was fun! I like the format.
Great format idea, very well executed too! Excited for the next episode!
I can gurantee when James mentiond Miura, he had NO CLUE what car it was !
Great video and new format! Would love to see autoalex and his V6 MX5 (Phil)!
Big fan of Matt's chanel too!
Matts great, hence the reason he’s here obviously 👍
I had this car on a poster on my wall as a kid. It read, "We looked perfection in the eye, and perfection blinked."
Amazing new program. Looking forward to this going around all the car youtubers and interviewing them
great idea for a new format, really hope it continues
Make this a show its gold, would be cool if it was the big 3 but I like the new folk as well
This is the format we need for sure!
Fantastic interview - nice one boys...
Yeah. Love the idea.
And very much enjoyed this one.
Kudos.
Nearly bought an E46 myself but came across an E39 and loved it more.
Here from MA's channel, proud of the man to make it here
That blue paint on those black rims looks 👌 🔥. Great looking vehicle.
Personally, I love the Maserati. It looks Amazing...
💯 ❤ this format 👌🏾
E39 m5 gotta be the best bmw not just mechanically but looks too
