I Sold my Black Limited AE86..... But Why?

A sad day as we sell our Black Limited AE86. But onwards and upwards

[@86themadhatter27]

If you could choose between having a dusty car sitting up on a container or having a lump of money you can put into doing some mad stuff, i know what i'd choose. Ireland's not the kind of country that's suited to keeping rare cars clean.

[@Group-D]

Ya thats the thinking. Ill get some mad ideas out of my head

[@christophermcnicholas8752]

You absolutely made the right decision. I love twin cams but at the end of the day it’s just a trim package that makes them crazy money and it’s just sitting there. So much better to have money to push you passion while giving that to someone that will love it for what it is rather than it collecting dust. Also fully agree with driving the shit out of cars 😂

[@Group-D]

Thank you. I'm ok with the decision. Looking forward to what comes next

[@cathalredmond7688]

Just right to many cars sitting in sheds not seeing the light of day!

[@Group-D]

Agree with that

[@AshleyCaunt]

Sad to see it go but can fully appreciate why you’ve made the decision, look forward to following the growth of your business and seeing more wild builds 👌🏼

[@Group-D]

Thank you very much

[@angeloah]

I love how you go about it. Looking forward to your moves to other racing genres.

[@Group-D]

Thank you. We will not disappoint

[@jameskearney7646]

A group d mark two escort rally car would be unreal with your touch and ideas

[@connormullan5475]

Pretty limmited on what your allowed to do with a car that was homolgated in rally, not allowed to venture much outside of what the manufacturer did, thats why andy burton isnt allowed to compete in the 306 anymore

[@Group-D]

Love this comment. But the mk2 is too common. I already have our rally car chassis that we will be building and looking to take on the mk2's

[@Group-D]

Very true. The rules are tight but i will push our rally car to be as different as i can its a very important part for me. We can also approach the sane outcome from different angles

[@jonhailcore]

Im older than you, always been cars and motorsport fanatic, i do plenty of grassrots stuff. I keep few nice JDM cars myself... those AE86 we're exception, i could not care less about them... So much more excited for you to putting money into proper race-car stuff !

[@Group-D]

Oh i dunno.... AE86's are pretty special

[@shedbuiltmotorsport]

Right choice I’d say look forward to what you are for investing in.

[@Group-D]

Got some cool shit coming

[@idokwatcher2062]

5:16 yes they became too precious for our own good, every body damage takes out half the value out of it. Same is happening to BMW M cars E30, E36, E46.

[@Group-D]

Yep, Or we are all getting old....

Sad to see it go, but a very logical conclusion👍👍👍👍

Thank you

Congrats on the sale Darren, i'm sure youll out the cahsish to good use.

[@Group-D]

I will do my best

[@2girls1cupp]

I feel the pain in your voice . Theres been cars over the years iv sold and regret . An evo3 for 2k . An r32 gtt for 4k and a s14a for 5.5k just a couple and now iv nothing . If i had just held them imstead of living in the now i could possibly have my dream car right now . But life is good im healthy and im happy ❤

[@Group-D]

Ive sold loads of cars that would be worth loads now but you cant look at it like that. I also still have loads of cars so they come and go

[@2girls1cupp]

@Group-D agree totally . I had so much fun in them I always said cars are like women . There's no point in saving her for her next boyfriend 🤣

[@OPEK.]

@@2girls1cuppur username makes me want to hit you with an evo3, an r32 gtt and a s14

[@DimZin]

Hello Group-D. I'm wondering where can i search for a job in Ireland as a car mechanic? Which place is could to live there? What are the pros and cons of living in ireland? Sorry for the off topic. I really like the work you do that's why i'm asking you.

[@Group-D]

Ireland is a lovely place. There is no motorsport industry here so remember that but there is a great clubman scene

[@ellianmaxwell6350]

Sad to see it go, but I’m excited to see where group d goes from here!

[@Group-D]

Thanks bud

[@JKRmsrt]

Disclosure. Comment before I watched the full thing If the car is sitting gathering dust it's not getting used. If it's not getting used it's not a car so your not enjoying it. If your not enjoying it why have it? Onto better things that you'll enjoy

[@Group-D]

Ya thats a good way of looking at it

[@JKRmsrt]

@@Group-D I'm sure it'll work out and I can understand the apprehension but thing about decisions we never know the outcome till we make them!

[@jameskearney7646]

Better investing the money in you and group d, on to bigger and better things

[@Group-D]

Thank you for the support

[@illavisions]

It's very clear how much the car means to you but I'm sure it will all be for a good cause

[@Group-D]

Ya didnt think id sell it but im not gonna put off other things for any longer either

[@jiffers1316]

At the start I thought you were a fool until you said you will be racing and having fun with your dad and I wish I could have with my dad and I will with my sons well done

[@Group-D]

Ya when you look at the bigger picture i think it makes sense

[@a.p.7660]

Wish I would’ve had the chance to restore this 😭

[@Group-D]

Me too but we move on

[@a.p.7660]

@@Group-D who’s the lucky buyer i can go follow or bug to sell lol

[@OPEK.]

The black limited garnish is probably 3-4k alone honestly

[@Group-D]

Ya thats what i was thinkin

[@Agamerslife200]

The redline garnish alone is like a good 1.5k so probably not far away from that price

[@JoeGuttridge95]

Onwards and upwards fella 👍🏼

[@Group-D]

Thats the plan!

[@edelfitzmaurice]

Perfect reason for the decision but please just revive the Falcon 86

[@Group-D]

That will be revived at some point

[@CrewofMaltby]

Seeing your 86 on it's most extreme diet was a great sight. Love when people go full tryhard on adding lightness w/ 4ag powerplant. True to the 86 spirit.

Dam lad I get your point that its only gona cost you money if you dont sell it but You should of restored it on the channel it would of got great veiws. And then it would of made you maybe more money than you got paid for it over the next 10 years of people watching it on youtube. But maybe in 10 years ypur youtube will make you enough that you can buy another one 🎉💯🤙👌

[@Group-D]

There are many cons to selling it for sure but im just not a restoration guy

[@DaveMsport]

I don't think Darren really cares about KZbin all that much or at least not as much as other 'youtubers' in a way he'll want to make sure he has the right content to buy a 50k plus corolla in 10 years. Better off cashing in and enjoying cars in the way he wants while he still can. Pottering around in a crappy slow albeit 'concours' car in your old age to Cars and Cocks meets on a Sunday morning isn't something that would appeal to me either 😂

[@HYDRO-IRE]

Love the content 👌

[@Group-D]

Thank you

[@evenflow2907]

Give up the acting that it’s sold for views n put it back up on the container
