such boring... but hugely satisfying work DJ, well done. That 306 will outlive you.

when I went to return the cable, it was too long, how should I solve it?

Ngl, seeing all this has got me motivated for mine and making the videos again too 😅 absolutely rated the 307cc 302mm brakes when i had them on mine. Did upgrade to 4pots but i specifically designed an adapter so i could stay with the 302mm disks for ease and cheapness

hello, thanks for this video you helped me a lot in the realization of the autosteer project for AgOpenGps. a question instead of the LAN connector can you use the micro usb output of arduino nano? another thing how do I connect the motor afterwards? Thanks and I wait for other interesting videos.

Been here from the very start of the dervbus project and watched the last rebuild so good to see the old girl coming back to life

Loving this new series. Good work meht.

Looks better underneath than some cars do on top.

This thing is going to be on the road for another 10 years easily with how much attention to detail you've put into it! Bravo!

Brilliant cant wait to see the next one

Looks amazing-can’t wait to see the engine build👍🏻

Makes my day getting an update on the green machine, shes looking mint 👌 💪

Looking good man fair play

This looks CLEAN af. All this extra effort now is going to make a hell of a difference long term l

Be great to see this getting to its full potential!

good to see the vidoes and the derv coming back to live keep them coming

You’re doing a cracking job Darren.

Let's go, pards!

Really old school subscriber and 306oc guy here still watching! Loving the content and nostalgia 👍

The M tdi stuff was the business, what you could achieve with spanners, screwdrivers and knowledge.

Been here since the old days! Watching you and the boys rag field cars around the farm and Cummins swap the Landy. 306oc days that are long gone.

Interesting as always been with you from the first build of this car so will be nice to see it reborn and back on the road 👍

Still here, still playing with turbos and fuel pumps. Currently running a 98 transit DI with a factory turbo. She's a boost bus alright! 😂

Holy crap, was just talking about your old stuff off the channel with a buddy who was also into derv stuff and decided to look you up on youtube and lo and behold!

Still here from atleast 10 years ago! Always enjoy the projects! Keep up the good work ☺️

Great job DJ. Now 400bhp please.

Perfect 👍

I see your video of the 306 I like a lot bro, continue Congratulations 👏👏

Really good video mate please keep it up love this car 😊

If you're finished welding those metal sheets put a lot of wax, oil and vaseline behind them with a lance. Will nerver rust again. Oh, and park it in the sun so things can spread out nicely

Nice work Darren, that's a really solid shell now. Should hopefully survive our lovely Cornish weather for many years to come! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

I like the way you have braced the lift from the shed. I have never liked to rely on concrete anchors only.

Nice work Buddy 🍻

Nice. What you using for underseal?

Greetings from Ireland I have been watching from the start and hung in there it’s great to see you back very few people doing as I call them max power cars nowadays

Looks great under there, nice job!

Always the same, once you start cutting it's always more than what you think, after years of doing car repairs it may not look to bad but once you get inside or where metal is sat lapped up against another panel it soon spreads between, it's nice to see someone other than me doing the work lol great video buddy.

Been following since yous brought home the shed 🤣🤣🤣 cheers for the content and can't wait to see what your going to do with this !

Been watching since the old days found ya when id my ph1 d turbo swapped berlingo good to see the car being re commisoned.

Ooft. Good work

Your doing a fabulous job there . Least it's going to last

Great content. Not boring at all. Highly recomend bilt hamber for rust treatment and underseal etc. Great stuff.

Better than when I got the screwdriver out on smokey, 6inch patch ended up as an 18+ inch repair on both rear sills and either side of the tank, I should have left the side skirts on, ignorance is bliss 😂😂

Welding in wellies 😂 you maverick, was waiting for the hot foot dance. Nice to see it progressing mate 👍🏻

What a blast from the past. I have subbed to you for so long I struggle to remember when I did. 😂

Conversely I've only recently found your channel, but it's got me really interested in following your progress, because I really like and appreciate you bringing back a car that was once big in it's scene and putting back to being a useable road going modern classic, and making it more sensible and useable on the road. It's a fitting and moving thing to see a once infamous but later neglected car being bought back to life and given another chance now that it doesn't need to prove anything anymore. More than that it really resonates with me as I have a similar situation with an old Rover 220 coupe, that was well known on the forums back in the days of tuning and modification, but it's now sat too long in a garage, and it needs to be up on a ramp and assessed with what is required to put it back to being a useable not too extreme road car, hopefully in 2025 this will happen for me and the car and see it back at the shows or local car enthusiast meetings.

play with ya toes

more vids

Been watching since the days of ragging field cars. I had a 106 as a field car myself at the time, so I related to your videos straight away. Fast forward nearly 15 years and I still chime in to see how life in Lobbland is going. Hard to believe how quickly the time has gone. I still use the term “Standard Issue” once or twice a week, I believe it originated from the old days of cold starts of XUDs. Enjoying the videos as always. All the best. Kilkenny, Ireland.

Yep, here since the original 'how to turn up the boost on your kkk or garret' days. My own black ph 1 d turbo project went to scrap after both rear arches, front sills and fuel tank support completely turned to dust. Still own a reg plate from that car and have always adored and missed it. Just sold my last and final 94 cherry d turbo with my original engine from the black one dropped in a few months ago. Always loved these cars, this channel and all you do and teach. Appreciate the revival! Sorry I now only own 1...ahem gti 6. Love this is still going, keep it up!

Still watching since the old days. Great to see you back.
