The history of the Project Nigel yard 

I'm also an HGV driver which l still mostly enjoy since l began night work twenty plus years back. If l could afford to retire & concentrate more on my very modest pre-SD1 Rover collection then l would & probably wouldn't miss the lorries but l can't so it's lucky l do still mostly enjoy the job. Lack of time to potter is a bit frustrating but l have managed to get a couple of cars farmed out to have the necessary work they require carried out, expensive despite mates rates but l feel l'm getting things done which deserve to be done. Shame about the looming recession but after all, "events dear boy, events". Nice video, good to find out that you've followed your dream & nice that we are able to share in it too.

The ability to work without major head trauma and remain conscious is always a plus point in any work place.... Nice to get a little insight into Project Nigel's origins.

Good to see you still going strong mustard fingers :P haha

This film is Very Good. It looked pretty professional, like a corporate training video. I learned a lot of things about your yard and even though you never mentioned it, I was reminded not to block fire escapes. This evening I was a guest in a house built in the 16th Century. It was very nice, very interesting, but I bumped my head twice. Olde people were tiny.

🤯 Just got done watching the last video and this one pops up, Cheers Paul appriciated 😊👍

Love the story!! Fighting Robots LOL........

Just found this video in you playlist. Was great to learn all about the yard, especially as the landlord wants to add anew chapter to its history. Hopefully one day I’ll get to visit Project Nigel HQ at one of your car meets, an epic road trip from northern Scotland 🚙 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

What a lovely wholesome video. Bless you young man. Long live Project Nigel.

Thoroughly heartwarming stuff - just like a good Rover!

What a lovely story 😊, funny how life works out eh.

Apologies for my not so brief absence from the project nigel channel, man I've missed nigel and his antics

A very interesting and informative Bit of Project Nigel history.. Many cups of tea later lol. Your a likeable character mate. I found your channel thourght me having a Rover 45 😀🤗

Very interesting Doctor, thoroughly enjoyed the history of PN. Thanks for the videos, still really enjoying them. I’ve just applied to join your FB group.

Fascinating stuff. Reminds me of the time I snapped up a fantastic white Rover 620ti from a chap in Northallerton. He'd reduced the price at the last minute for some reason ...

Thanks for giving us a brief history Paul. Great viewing as usual. All the best Steve

Thank you for opening up your you tube channel. You seem to have your priorities right, and I shall follow.

Thanks for that Paul, it was very interesting and a pretty slick production as well.

Fantastic video, have been intrigued with the yard for a while now

Brilliant, I especially like your view on Rover owners. M.

Interesting video 🚗🚙🚘👍👍👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Bit late the party on this Paul but shall follow from now on 👍

Good bloke is paul, if he can help you save a rover or mg he not only can he probably will

What a little gem of a channel, very engaging and laced with good northern humour. Great insight into the origins of your channel, cracking stuff 👍

Cheers for doing this one - explains loads of the things I've wondered about with your yard while watching your videos. 😃

Love your videos, I could watch them all day! Keep them coming. Hope your meet goes well tomorrow. One of these days I’ll bring my T Reg Rover 75 in old English white to one of them. It was one of the cars used for the 19th June 99 London Bridge Launch.

Thanks for the history lesson, I always enjoy watching your vids, I find them very relaxing at the end of the day. Looking forward to your next vid 😀

"it has given me 2 years of service without really any problems" Apart from when the winch nearly killing you and Mick at mad having to rebuild your brakes before they exploded. 😂

Thanks for your story Paul

Great video, love the fighting robots.

Fab vid Paul.

What a brilliant upload, Paul. I found this extremely interesting. It's strange what paths life takes you on. I'm just so glad that everything lead you to end up doing Project Nigel. It's mine, and many others, happy place :) Would be great to come down and visit the yard 🙂

Great video yet again, I do love the authenticity of this channel. To some extent I think it is every car guy’s dream to have their own yard, be it for personal or commercial purposes. I am curious if you ship parts outside of the UK too. I have an MK2 MG ZS180 (btw the grey MK2 you got standing there looks gorgeous) as a daily and a MK1 ZR160 that awaits some love and parts are becoming so rare here. Looking forward to your next videos.

brilliant video Paul really puts things into perspective 👍

A potted history of mustard. Buying a second hand van in a minefield, if you ever want another one i recomend Al 6d diesels, have a look at his channel. Im glad i watched this video Paul , i can unerstand a bit more about you and your journey.

But if you started fixing the sd1 that could be possibly a bigger and more epic adventure than anything up to date

Good video Paul It’s nice to know how it all started for you and project Nigel. Funny enough there is a Rover 620 in grey on eBay that I’m quite interested in with very low mileage, I also used to have a N reg tomcat in red many years ago with my first wife it was the 1.6 with the Honda engine in it and was a automatic, we had to sell it because my wife at the time fell pregnant with my son

Enjoyed that video capt 👌, first seen u on utube, your face with some rover mats, having owned rovers since 1990 I tuned in, and watched all your vids, keep up the good work Paul.

Great vid Paul, it’s always interesting to know how people got started with You Tube, with me it’s finding the time and right place. It is true that you make friends with a certain marque of car, and MG/Rovers are no exception. It’s like the old Honda Cub advert, “You meet the nicest people on a Honda” It’s more like “You meet the nicest people…with a Rover!

👍Rover friends 👍

Great video, not sure why I haven't seen it until now as id wondered how it all started.

Great video. I have been interested in knowing your yard story, thank you. Glad you have a better recovery wagon now.

Iveco named it daily as you had to re fill it with oil daily due to leaks everywhere!

Nice background story, you appear to have made the right choices or in the case of recovery truckage had it made for you.

Fantastic video as always Paul. I always look forward to each upload.

Thanks for sharing it's interesting to hear your journey. Following your passion is so important and like you said it opens up so many opportunities that you never even knew were possible. Life is short so do what's important to you, see you tomorrow... Mr and Mrs Prelude

A carefully thought out and very well-made video. I think it could be described as The PN History Documentary. Have you another new lapel mic? Don't think I'd noticed that particular one previously. A funny thought occurred, I wonder if Transitface has featured in more PN videos than Nigel? 🤔 Perhaps 'Gardenspoon' could be the next for the documentary treatment? Or do we keep quiet about that one 😁
