I found a Laguna Seca Blue E46 BMW M3 abandoned on the side of a race track last year. I bought it and decided to restore it, working through all the common problems and some not so common problems. Now the car is ALMOST complete i was invited over by @Drivetribe to the smallest cog workshop so Richard Hammond and his team could check it over and give there opinion on it. What an opportunity!

Hammond has a shop, Clarkson has a farm, and May has a pub. I like that.

How could you not, anyone who grew up watching Top Gear is bound to have a fond spot for Hammond, May and Clarkson……and Richard is a really down to earth guy.

@mrT-qp1mf Год назад

What I will say is that my impression of Richard Hammond before this was that he is a down to earth guy that knows all about cars and engineering. For him to get involved with this channel which hasn't got a million subscribers yet but soon will have. To me proves that he is exactly what I already thought top man. Great footage thanks.

@mrT-qp1mf Год назад

Keep them coming mat. Well done. Can never have to many projects or cars ignore that chat. Thanks again.

@leprechaun7667 Год назад

Hammo’s going / gone broke!! He sold of all his collection of car’s and bikes to keep his garage open. Hammo is smart by getting the young exposure through this channel!! Don’t get me wrong I love Hammo always have and I think it was a case of corona sank him! I genuinely hope he turns everything around and wonderful success.

@Atom188 2 месяца назад

I got the opposite impression, it felt like this was a contractual obligation for him and he just winged it, he was acting a bit elite with what he said and how we carried himself. It didn’t look like much was offered in terms of him giving up a lot of his time for this. His team looked over the car which took an hour and Richard probably gave 10 mins of filming then went back to his day to day. Mat deserves more

First let me say I've been a fan this channel for a while and really appreciate the enthusiasm you bring to restoring and modifying automobiles. Massive props Mat. Big fan! With that said, I'd like to state that one of these days it would be truly awesome to see Mat along with Richard Hammond and James May doing a show where they review cars from around the world and give their impressions from restored mint, restomod and full blown custom. I think the dynamic would be so fun to witness! Just imagine!

Hi Mat, I'm new to channel and have really been enjoying catching up on some of your past projects, along with eagerly anticipating your release of new videos! I'm amazed that this is the second video I've seen in which you've described yourself as 'not a mechanic'.

Bloody good work, long may it continue 🔥🔥🔥
