REBUILDING MY WRECKED BMW M2 COMPETITION.... SO CLOSE!!!

[@f1kwa399]

The most successful car KZbinrs all have one thing in common, they’ve got guts and you can include yourself as one of them, you deserve so many more subscribers, this was a wreck but not anymore, can’t wait to see it finished. You also listen to your subscribers, the roof makes it. Congratulations Dean.

[@roscopeco2000]

well said

[@f1kwa399]

@@roscopeco2000 thank you. I always tell the guys in the USA to check Dean out, they seem to struggle more so with Audi’s than he does, especially R8’s.

[@SavingSalvage]

Thank you mate, I appreciate that a lot! 😊

[@aminkhan1292]

facts

[@shotgunj1]

Brilliant work 👏, good luck with the mot!

[@craigmillard5083]

Funniest bit was you 💩 yourself on start up😅😅. Well done dean, nailed it again 👏🏻 👍

[@johnhutchinson635]

It was so loud lol

[@Sttratt]

The fact that you can hold down a full time job and still do this and then have a gt4,m2 ,r8 and now an Rs3 ,that’s a dream drive way ,this build has been your best yet in my opinion ,hats off to you bud .ideal .

[@kNIGHTriderryder]

These are weapons I seen so many just ripping up the roads it does have habit of swinging itself back out abit becareful very professional effort fixing this beauty to its former glory

[@jordanlovell8775]

Temp sensor in the brake duct on passenger side! Just pushes in to the duct bud and it’s fitted from the bottom of the duct

[@iamyourfuture808]

Love the way all the warning tones (@4.44) are so chilled almost lulling you to sleep. had the misfortune of driving a renault capture recently. the warning tones on that provoke rage

[@grebo31]

Well done Dean. Your vids are truly inspiring. The straight forward approach to your projects and the way you present them is amazing. Looking forward to the TVR.

[@LasseJOugaard]

Regarding that error code. You need a new positive battery terminal. There is a pyrotechnic charge in the terminal that most likely was set off, when the car was crashed. It looks great though. The carbon roof especially came out suprisingly good!

[@paultaylor9652]

Hard work always comes good at the end Dean, can't wait to see it painted in one colour.

[@steveegginton535]

This has to be one of your biggest challenges other than rebuilding Audi engines!!. The BMW looked so wrecked when you got it but you have done an amazing job to getting it looking so good - can't wait to see it after its been painted.

[@joshn5790]

i had the same error on my F30, on the positive terminal is a single thin wire with a female terminal on, I replace the terminal and now its all good

[@teamemusrcreviews3225]

Yeh your attention to detail is fab, this shows when car is finished without flaw. 👍👍🚘🚘🚘🚘 best vids out there, keep them coming please. Regards from north of Scotland

[@The_journeyy]

That colour on the front bumper is a bit of me. It's looking so good well done mate 😊

[@madmc01]

Really enjoyed this M2 rebuild, must admit I laughed at your shock at the startup, probably more than I should have!

[@legomanmw2]

Got to say Dean, you don't skimp on anything. If it's OEM and expensive, you still bring it back to original spec and nothing gets left out, fasteners and everything.

[@LG-kl3co]

The transformation is massive...you have created a car out of a virtual "Write off"

[@alanparkinson5724]

Can't believe it looks great compared to what it was like top repair great channel

[@PK73]

The external temp sensor usually fits in one of the bumper ducts from memory

[@danarmstrongmusic]

lots of fun!!! mental car. Great work Dean!!

[@mjjr1000]

15:51 😂😂😂😂 sooooooo funny, you jumped that high you might wanna check you didn’t pop the roof back off 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@SavingSalvage]

😂 I get annoyed when the camera just doesn’t pick up the noise properly

[@waynehammerton5698]

Absolutley superb Dean once painted it will be outstanding as always

[@plattis87]

Looking good! You are a true master of rebuilding cars!

[@stevewood7884]

Can't wait until it's painted, looks good, you've done wonders with it 👍

[@dcbarney8571]

Well done dean fab repair credit to your skill and enthusiasm

[@aidencoder]

Get those pops and bangs mapped out, proper ASBO nonsense :) Well done on getting it back together!

[@matthewfletcher7879]

Amazing, so interesting, what a journey. You have inspired me to do some DIY repairs to my car. Well done 👌

[@owenmorgan857]

Would love an M2, and this is some amazing work to get this motor back on the road

[@rickb296]

I first came to this channel for the TVR Cerbera, but stayed because it is genuinely excellent content and very well presented. Can't wait for more on the TVR at some date... For me, Dean took over after the content from Bad Obsession Motorsports kind of ended. I have to also add that you have "movie star" eyes, dude.

[@andrewkidger7048]

Cracking job there Dean, really enjoyed watching this rebuild, Car sounds fantastic, can't wait for the road test, Well done.

[@jamiereith6912]

Really great build. There were lots of doubters in the beginning but you showed the faith and it has really paid off. BMW's are my favourite so I am biased but congrats on your achievement 👏

[@andrewmarriott4033]

That looked rapid as you went past the fence no wonder someone binned that can’t wait to see it painted 👍

[@aCivilServant]

Nice hearing that turbo spooling up, and that's just in the driveway. :)

[@davidcassidy1489]

Wow didn't think it's been 9 months since you first revealed the M2 Dean that's flown by great job by the way love your builds mate

[@TheHunterHofman]

Dean, I know my M2 inside out, and I believe that the temperature sensor clips on the inside of the bumper, maybe worth checking that out.

[@christopherclarke5978]

Great job done. I do like the red colour on the bumper. Spray it all that Red with the black roof etc it will look mint

[@eamonkelly2792]

Well done Dean, the BMW is looking great, the road test should be fun, I wonder how many times you are going to be scared putting your foot down 🤣🤣

[@Showing_the_car_]

Really good work on this one - what a monster! Have to say a big THUMBS DOWN from me on LLL parts - when I tried to return some BMW sensors, they caused a huge fuss and never refunded me - I bought them just before Xmas, couldn't get hold of the company (obviously) then in January they said my 14 day return window had expired. I'll never use them again.

[@markweston427]

Went out in my friends M4 the other cold night it’s 600bhp and he’s a driver … it’s an absolute weapon you’ve got to have big balls to hold on to theses cars if not you’re goin to end up dead “ yours being lighter and 50 BHP more … you need to hold on “ think you need to rethink the brand of Tyres, you’re using they won’t last 2/3000 miles as the compound is to soft they are a comfort tyre … Michelin pilot sport is best ❤the build

[@michaelstevens7533]

Well you've done a grand job on the car so far bud. She's gonna look great when finished

[@MattyEngland]

Looking forward to the test drive.

[@gman5523]

Tbh Dean I thought you might of taken on a bit to much for your self here ! Great progress 👏👏👏👏

[@cossied01]

On a lot of BMs that air temp sensor attaches to one of those plastic air duct / cowls in beteween the Wheel and th bumper.

[@olivers.6420]

Great job Dean!! Getting this car together was a great undertaking but you did it. To be honest I would remove the tune, this car is fast enough in stock. Not worth crashing it again because it becomes undrivable.

[@pauld3638]

Great job well done Dean a Mammoth build but nearly there now. I wouldnt mind that for the wife.

[@darrenjones9504]

Great work Dean. Looking forward to seeing the finished article 👍👍

[@buddysinsight9834]

I hope you don’t mind my observations Dean but when you lower that door it will make the wing gap worse. I wonder if the wing needs raising at the front if possible to close that gap. Something is out and needs dealing with before paint.

[@legobatman8353]

The orange/black/white combo is strangely nice.

[@chrisdavidson9431]

Wow, that 9 months has flown by - it feels more like 3 months - but its looking great now !!

[@Dadeets]

I genuinely had doubts when you first unveiled it. But as per Dean you’ve smashed it ! What a full bore beast of a motor. That roof absolutely takes it to another level - really not gonna be many out there with it or done as well as yours. Not to mention packing 650 gee gees either. If I’m honest I’d be keeping this lunatic and parting with the new Audi. But before it goes how about a performance comparison with your new rs3 - would be interesting to see how the new Audi fairs against it.

[@kennadod2080]

Absolute weapon of a car. Done a great job considering the damage. Can't wait to see it painted

[@neilbathe]

Love the channel - can't wait for a TVR update 🤭Really interested to understand the return on investment on the tyre fitting/balancing machine. I do understand it is easier/faster to have your own, but do think it is a simple task to outsource if you have vehicles available to drop off the wheels & tyres and go back to "valuable" work... If you use it for "other" work that we may not see, then fair enough...

[@SavingSalvage]

I transport cars for a living, so constantly use it for the vans which do high mileage as well as trailer tyres, that’s not the only benefit as I can buy tyres about 20% cheaper than the garage charge to fit them. (Which I would have to drive to every time) and then you have out of hour punctures etc… absolute no brainer to buy my own machine for me

[@fast_eddie3441]

So many tyre fitters damage freshly painted wheels. Must be great to have your own machine. Keep up the great work Dean!

[@monkeymagic7677]

Top work fella very impressive repair don't know where that 9 months went but can't wait for first proper road test ❤

[@generalt1090]

Looks and sounds like an animal!! We’ll done - can’t wait to see it complete

[@BigBadBoSS91]

Great work 👍 As an M2 Comp owner I’m jealous that I don’t have a carbon roof😂 I would recommend Michelin p4s or cup 2s tbh, as they give way better traction off the line and better feedback on the limit.

[@bazw1685]

Sounds amazing 🤙 great job buddy

[@matthewt-ty33]

BMW is a good example of a car u have

[@markcfullam]

Awesome job Dean - looking forward to the road test - I don't mind pops and bangs if they're relatively subtle (i.e. oem) but this sounds like you're likely to get some unwanted attention ;)

[@HollyBerryDOOG]

Fantastic rebuild, it’s going to look great when it’s finished

[@davecooke914]

Dean dun amazing job on bmw be scary on the the road good luck can't wait till you take car out 👍👍

[@benlomax7513]

Smashing it again mate. That car does sound like an absolute animal!

[@markopolo9421]

I’m new to your channel and loving it can’t wait to watch your other videos, keep up the great work, bm is getting there 👍

[@agua-moose4213]

This has been a massively interesting rebuild. Great to see how you have managed with an unfamiliar make, very well indeed. Please please please raffle this car when its finished. I would love a chance to win it.

[@cmac5110]

On my 2 series mate my temp sensor goes in the foam bumper reinforcement don't know if yours is them same but I don't think it matters

[@djzcarr]

Hats of to you. Didn't think that was repairable

[@renovateandflip2073]

Really great work Dean.. that car sounds epic

[@АртемПрохоров-Лукин]

BMW is cool,but i'm most interested in that TVR Chimera, that you've got))

[@dangti6]

Great work as always Dean!! Hilarious when you scared yourself starting the car 😂….had to repeat that several times 😂😂. Can’t believe it’s been 8-9 months 😮.

[@seanfarrell6009]

Great video Dean, what are your plans for the car? Be a nice one for your loyal subscribers 😂, looking forward to your update on R8 don't keep us waiting too long

[@danielmorrissey5842]

Think outside temp sensor or rad is going to give u false reading as in when rad heats up it will read temp wrong ?

[@electrician1602]

Nice job Dean. Sounds great.

[@muffindell]

Can't wait to see it in paint and a 'proper' test drive

[@davidsewell3745]

Looking awesome Dean, reckon that's gonna be an utter animal on the road

[@samcourt6228]

Even as a certified BMW Fanboy, the S55 engine doesn’t make a very nice noise and this is no exception. Looks good though given what it looked like when you first started. You’ll be fine….the throttle isn’t an on / off switch 😂

[@richardbanks0591]

Air temp sensor went in the brake airduct on a 420d I rebuilt.. not sure it's the same looks the same.

[@Dizzee44]

Mate love your videos what I love about them is your attention to detail and the work you putt in if I was looking for a cat Car I think I would buy one from you as you do the job right

[@rsoppy735]

Fantastic job . just hope there has been no depreciation over the 9 months as the parts cannon has been fired at this one. Again well done sounds amazing

[@bigbhp6808]

Lovely bit of salvage that was but my only concern would be the cost of parts and the time its took to do it would most likely out wiegh any profit you would make off this one

[@shaunwilson-seabrook]

Great video as always any update on the TVR ? can’t wait to see that build . Great channel by the way 👏🏻👍🏻👊🏻

[@HuntsChris]

Great progress so far chap.

[@Kiz552]

How do I go about selling an Audi A1 that has a category S, it has no signs of structural damage, at the first mot I asked the tester to check it out, he said there's no signs it's been in an accident.

[@kevinwhittaker1307]

It’s turned out amazing, I’m sure that you will be fine with all the power. Good luck 👍

[@ajmotors247]

Love the videos keep them going love the builds

[@markopolo9559]

I can't beleive its a stock exhaust, either iy has a cracked exhaust or internals of the exhaust box has been removed?

[@stevo4649]

thankyou Dean your uploads are brilliant,,🙏👍

[@theoriginalracingsnake]

I couldn't live with that exhaust...... Fantastic job on the car though. I'm left wondering, is this a competition between you and Mat Armstrong to see who can revive the most smashed car? 🙂

[@Jasonj___8]

Class Deano onwards and upwards mate 👍👍👍

[@EnglishTurbines]

Great save, what an animal....🤔😳😳😀🇬🇧

[@caprimen]

Brilliant- test drive will be unbelievable- but great work

[@johnelbro127]

Great car and video, it will look superb when painted. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@gordonbradford4054]

Who’s is the red EV6 lurking in the background at 16:37?

[@David-mk5et]

Love the journey so far on this build. 👊🏾💯 #highfive 🖐🏾

[@iankent4212]

It sound great it’s looking A 1

[@projecteuroau]

Awesome video as always mate. Can you tell us how you have all this equipment you use? Do you work out of your own shop or are you using somebody elses shop? I've noticed a heap of shipping containers in the background of your videos, seems like a sick setup!

[@AMG6311]

I thought I was good 😮 after watching you. I don't know. You have the patience of a sant the R8 rebuild & the C63 transmission with the voltage regulator. You are excellent. Keep it up 👏🚔🤔🚓☺️💥🙉

[@SavingSalvage]

Thanks mate 😀

[@paulcushnie]

See that smirk you had when you blipped the throttle going up the drive that's the start of it. You are now on your way to become a bmwoholic! You watch audi's for sale.

[@charledchapman6802]

why are u being so over the top as it sounds great in sports plus cant wait for the paint and taking it on a good run

[@matttrout7356]

Awesome vid as always… just spotted something though on the new updated front bumper…… headlight washers???? 👍👍👍

[@SavingSalvage]

LCI doesn’t have them

[@SavingSalvage]

And thanks 😊

[@WilliamStevens007]

Good job there.

[@guerriclc7659]

Great job and I agree LLL parts are good !

[@davej.6290]

Front crash bar foam piece is missing a good bit 😲
