@AllTorque, I recently discovered your channel and was thoroughly impressed with the quality of your content. Your editing, camera work, and presentation are all top-notch, and I found your content to be highly engaging and informative. I believe that your channel has the potential to attract a much larger audience, and I hope that you will continue to create more content in the future.
I really appreciate the kind words. It genuinely means a lot. I'm actually starting to finally go back to my units and have done a little work this week. It's been a long road to getting back into a place mentally where I have felt happy enough to want to do this. Words like yours really help with that process! thank you once again!
Hi Phillip and thank you for the kind words. I've been having a lot of issues away from You Tube and haven't had the motivation to film. I still have the P38 .. and to answer your question yeah I would love to get back to filming some more videos. The P38 has a few issues. It's now been stood a while ... has a keycode lockout and a non working door handle which has the microsensors on so I really should get around to doing something with that and then getting it fettled and in for paint.
i wouldnt buy a new car full stop. if i have a car, its old school. something like these. im a young driver so i can only insure 1 car so it would have to be something i like to be used as a daily
This is from a long time ago so can't remember exactly ... my friend may recall or may have an old spec sheet I will ask and take a look. Had a lot of work on it though, was pretty heavily modified but aesthetically rough
Nice one. My 2006 A6 C6 4F5 had something wrong. Changed compressor (Frankberg £190) fixed the lifting (old compressor didn't work with new piston ring, barrel was too badly scored), but then the back right kept going down - fitted new Frankberg bag (£90) today and hurrah! All good. Calibrated via VCDS and it's like new again - funnily enough, the old bag (leaked in water test) had the exact same part number so guess previous owner cheaped out too - hopefully get a couple years out of it, but pleased so far - just aircon issue next.......
Nope/ My rather in law ended up in a coma for 47 days and was in ICCU for 87 days with covid and after this my mum died. We also had the roof torn off one off one of our businesses which was shut for 18 months. It has been a really hard time .. I haven't forgotten about these and I haven't given up on You Tube ... I will be back!!
@@AllTorque aww damn bro thats a shit ton of bad luck. Im sorry to hear of your loss too. I look forward to catching up when you’re all back up on your feet! 🙏🏾
@@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypse I need to make it back to here ... I've missed it ... ive focused on family and have still made RU-vid for my daughter but need to do this for me too and get back to the cars and the support network. Thanks for the patience man!!
I always wanted a CL65 but settled for a 2000 CL500 (sold it 12 yrs ago) in the end thinking of the immense costs involved. But the 500 turned out a bit of a mixed bag lol 😆 they need a lot of money lavished on them!
Incidentally it does ... although I haven't progressed the project much for personal reasons the car now fires up and runs and sounds great I may add! The clutch needs resolving and it will be time for a first drive around the yard shortly.
Hi and thanks for your message. We had some family illness and my mum passed away in Feb this year and I haven't put a video out since. I still have the car and have been motivating myself to come back and start making some video's again so I would imagine I will have something shortly. I'm sorry I've been away so long.
Bought one a year ago, they're the nuts and I utterly hated the things till I drove one, 3 months later I bought one, I don't care what it looks like it's that engine 🙂 sticks like s..t , smiles per gallon
So here's how to make Buttertubs a *real* challenge - Stay on your own side of the road ! And Hawes to Sedbergh in heavy rain is actually the better driving experience.
@@AllTorque LOL Aint that the truth. I had a TR7 and it was the worst POS I ever owned. Got sick of calling England and trying to source parts. Nice looking car but POS.
It was a lazy smokey day, sitting in my mates basement, when I just happened to notice a picture on the back of a magazine, I gazed in awe at the beauty of a little sleek black 2 door coupe, I vowed right then that one day it shall be mine, 30 years later, I'm on my 3rd G60! Best Cars Ever!
Two suggestions for the handling: 1: Add as much camber as possible at the front and remove as much as possible at the rear. -> This should help with understeer 2: Add "non staggered" wheels. I used BMW Styling M164 18 inch wheels (from the Z4M). They look nice, are quite light, not expensive and are not staggered --> 225/40/18 allround should fix the understeer.
I was looking at this exact model last night. No interior pictures although the dealer sang praises about it. I've learned quickly to only look for reputable dealers with AA/ Auto Trader /customer 5 star reviews. Even if you have to wait a long time for what you want
@@philipunsworth2801 Hey how are you? Many bad things the past 12 months ... which just brought me away from You Tube and making videos ... in fact away from cars to a large extent. Hopefully getting focused again and hopefully making some new content!
Hi. It's still in one of my units at the moment. I haven't been making videos or doing much recently. My mum passed away on Feb after a long illness and hospitalisation and I'm only just starting to make a return to working on the cars again.
as a document to your refurbish accomplishment, kudo's. ...but as a video that actually teaches the details that went into suspension pump repair, front air shock replacement, or even locating seat bolts and clips, this video is pretty much worthless...
Если завод обновит оптику и двс с гбридом,то,думаю мог бы выпускать их снова. То есть,как гелендваген,был бы всегда востребован. Для меня эта модель совершенство форм и высокая ответственность изготовителя. BMW- ВСЕГДА ОСОБЕННЫЙ,ДЕРЗКИЙ И ТАИНСТВЕННЫЙ!🤝🇰🇬
Спасибо. я согласен. Голубой биарриц - потрясающий цвет. он идеально смотрится на таком роскошном автомобиле и действительно сияет на солнце. хотя в Великобритании у нас не так много солнечного света, ха-ха
I’m actually very undecided between buying an E36 M3 Evo or E30 325 sport. What would you go for? I prefer the looks of the E30 but I feel the drive of the M3 would be better. What would hold or rise in value more. My budget is £30k so hopefully can get a good one for that.
