    Sometimes I get a bit bored with constant BMW stuff and your insistence on lowering everything, but recently I think we're back to AutoAlex at it's best doing the stuff you're best at. The Ferrari is ridiculous, it's a hopeless basket case, but the content is great, I hope it lives. Then the Classic Mini and Spitfire, the Spit looks awesome, I'm a Triumph fan and though I like the purist approach the mods on that car close to perfection, an actual improvement and not just mods for mods sake. The Mini though, is one of the nicest I've ever seen, and Mini's have always been modded from day 1, and this is in the spirit of Mini customs, I LOVE it, great job Taylor, well done mate

    As you like a good rim, the wheels you took off are proper RSP items, so worth £2-300.
    Also, for someone of Taylor's stature, I would recommend fitting seat 'lay back' brackets. They only cost a few quid, mount to the hinges and put the seat back 2-3 inches, which makes a world of difference to legroom for the driver.

      It be like crashing a motorbike. The safest place to be is often as far away from the machine as possible. As long as you don't hit anything too solid, like a tree, you should be relatively ok.

    Along with a cooper head if you can find one or a mg 1300 head with a Kent 276 cam and a copper s flywheel if you can find one👍 have fun.
    And a 45 or twin Webber.
    And imagine 4 lads stuffed in said mini to a destination somewhere with some choice parts distributor coil leads ect just in case of a break down.

    Well done on rescuing a classic mini. Always smiles per mile in them.

    Put some small Union Jack badges on those holes in the front wing Taylor. Bit of protection and I don't think it would look out of place.

    Tell Will not to come back on the channel unless he grows his tash back. He doesn't look right without it.

    Can we take a moment to appreciate the fact Taylor not only has two matching Mini’s, but also a matching Submariner 🤩🤩🤩

    This is so cool, love Minis too. Sorry to be a liiiiiittle bit nerdy about the new Italian Job movie, well.. the Los Angeles Job i suppose would be a more fitting title.
    Jason Statham's character had the white Mini. The red one was Charlize Theron. So if that is one of the movie cars that the actors used, she should've sat in that seat.

    What a great restoration!! Lil’ Pete looks amazing!
    Given me the inspiration to get Joey back on the road in her very sorry state. Think the rust is equal, if not worse 😅😭😂

    I'd love them to do a 60's-early 70's yank challenge. Before the emissions killed all the fun.
    Taylor would actually fit in a plymouth Fury ha

      Black & Silver plates are only legal on cars over 40 years old, possibly may even have to get the V5C reclassified as a historic vehicle to be 100% squeaky clean.

      ​@@cogboy302all the cars are 40 years old. That was one of the requirements of the challenge 😂. Taylors was originally registered in 1979 so it's actually 45 years old now and should be classed as a historic vehicle
