As an 82 year old geezer I keep asking myself what the blazes I'm doing watching every bloody video you produce. I watch them with total amazement and complete enjoyment. Matt Armstrong you are an exceptional fellow with enormous talent, ambition and determination and I so admire you. The team you have are equally great particularly your Dad who is clearly having the time of his life working with all you young guys. Keep that amazing enthusiasm and can-do attitude and you'll win every time! Go well young man!

I'm another 80 year old fan. I've been a car car my entire life. One of the best features of your channel is the relationship you have with your Dad! He is amazing! Your work ethic is astonishing, and you are to be acknowledged for it! We have different tastes in a few areas. I am not a fan of black rims or flat or satin finishes. The blue was gorgeous and, in my opinion, would have been my choice with some alloy rims! Your car your choice! 😊

Mat love the builds, you are a truly genuine guy who has made a life most of us can just dream of, the house, the cars but most importantly you love what you do and that’s what comes across on camera.

Mat, I work at JLR and used to set panels of these when they weren't set properly off the track, when you loosen the top bolts on the tailgate you need to open the boot fully whilst loose and push it up with force on one side at a time and tighten simultaneously while pushed up. Then repeat for the other side, it will align perfect, if too high loosen top bolt while closed slowly 👍🏻👍🏻
