Just worked it out that I’ve been watching you for 13 years 😮😮 first started watching when you was 19 n had that jag estate, can’t believe you’re 32 boq 😂
Next project should be a motorbike something retro or retro looking ( Honda cub, Cafe racer, bobber) can use it for a new concept of branding and branching out to motorbike scene. Even if it's a 50cc or 125 can ride it on L plates with a cbt and can make a series of it. Getting the bike done and getting your cbt
@@boqer123 be a brilliant series to watch watching you and Andy do something completely different to what your both use to doing in the channel plus the content of you two on a summer ride out would be brilliant
Admire the persistence with the arm bolt! Next time it’s easier just loosening the subframe bolts, the the frame swing down a little bit and the bolt comes out. Saves attacking the mounts from above ! Keep up the vids ❤
@@boqer123for future reference, remove the dog bone mount and use a jack to rock the whole engine and gearbox backwards, if you had a manual you would be able to get the bolt out no issue. It's because you have the dsg. I had the same issue on my Skoda Superb, your also lucky the bolts going into the subframe which Andy commented on the dusty threads, that's because it's dissimilar metals going into eachother. They are very prone to snapping and then you have to replace part of the subframe, the ex had that issue on his leon
Love all the videos as always, after 9 years of watching you guys (from the start of riding the bmx’s and webisodes to the last few years of building cars and taking sick trips away with the lads) it’s so cool to see how things have changed overtime! As I’ve grown into an adult with a fascination around cars, vans, bikes etc it’s mad watching you guys continue to put out content I always get gassed to watch like I did all them years ago! 🙏🏼 I know you guys always do cars etc but it would be SICKK to watch yous get a van and camper it out where you lads can take it on trips for some adventures! I know you have the defender which I love and have always want to own too, but I think a bmx, mountain bike camper where you guys can take it away on trips and film along the way would be so cool! Keep up the videos I’ll always be supporting! P.s. I love when you meet up with the old guys (Clem, Mick etc) would be cool to see them in some future vids when they come down to see you guys. Also would love to see another pop up shop like you did in London was a wicked day/ evening 🙌🏼
Only thing to make it look mint now would be some fresh headlights, could polish your current ones up I suppose, but then you end up doing it every year, think it takes off the UV coating. Surprisingly, looks like a new pair isn't too expensive.
Done the same job on my 250k golf at Christmas! All combine stuff very happy, inner and outer tie rods, arms, drop links and anti roll bar bushes! It drives like new again
Bitta future reference, don’t lower the car onto the wood, leave the car up and put the wood on a trolley Jack, it’ll act like a transmission Jack, so you don’t have work low down too 6:44
Your next project should be turning passat into micro camper for a summer road trip hand delivering a piece of your merchandise to the farest away order from your unit.just burn hundreds on diesel to hand some tight sod a pack of 6 airfreshners.
Next project should be a proper cheap slam project! All these “chop the springs and put it on nice wheels” comments need to come to form, maybe a big ol barge?
That’s why I like the Skoda Octavia platform, it’s a little more easier to work on. Even that door tweeters just pop off and plug in without taking the door card off… 😂 But, sod all that just to get a bolt out. I’d imagine that’s even worse on an Audi…
I think a Porsche 944 would suit the Channel, be fun to blast round some lanes in too. Or In all honesty I’d love to see you guys with something aircooled.
As a mechanic who works for VW you made that way harder than it needs to be. If you undo the dog mount you can rock the engine enough with a big bar to get the bolt out
I seriously relate on finding that bumper. I was looking for a replacement OEM grille for my RS3 (mine was cracked when I bought it) and it took me 7 months to get one. A saga isn’t even the word for the shit I went through. I ended up getting an OEM brand new one on eBay from Slovakia of all places 😂
Get yourself a motor jack, would mean you don’t have to lower the car down on that plank of wood, you can do all the movements from under the car in a lot more of a contoled manner
Nothing wrong with a little daily driver content. Miss working on my ST220 since being wacked on a roundabout. Would love to see some content on one tbf.
I'd love to see something old school, luxurious and Japanese as the next project. Lexus LS400 or something along those lines. Glad to see the Passat looking mint (again).
Project caddy! You’ve got something to take on drift days for tools and tyres etc, and something to dump an Audi s3 lump in. I’ll even lend a hand fitting the engine 😂
a) this is my favourite BQR car b) Where is the BQR bucket hat? (everyone loves a bucket hat) c) Something with pop up headlights... d) Keep up the good work.
Its easier to drop subframe bolts to remove that bottom arm bolt saves a lot of hassle. On the next build id love to see a slammed pickup like a mazda b2500/ford ranger maybe. Love the vids guys 👍
Cliche first car but modified nicely with the knowledge you have now about dos and don’ts compared to the things we all try to forget we did to our first cars
Next project car I'd like to see a sleeper shop van. Get a small van, I'm thinking Ford Transit Connect size, maybe facelift it with some car bumpers, spice the engine a bit with a tune and some casual upgrades, make it nice, and then slap a logo on the sides. Make it a parts hauler, merch hauler, bike hauler with some wheel clamps internally etc. I know you've got the Landy already but you could have a laugh with a little van and you've not touched that genre yet. Failing that go all that and do this idea but with a Hayabusa-engined Bedford Rascal, fuckit 😆
Maybe a short series where you buy the worst car you can find on ebay, then turn it into a decent runner/looker on a budget. Could always sell it on and work your way up 🤷♂️😂
