Great to see you back together. It's great to see it's obvious Darren has a true passion for his business and giving his customers what they want. And Ped like normal your fantastic doing your uploads videos there so entertaining both together there's a true passion for Mini cars that I really like as a ex Mini owner. Had to change due to an accident at work. I know have a automatic kia had no choice. Thanks again guys great video first class act👍.

Great watch as per usual Peter. Really informative and nice to see how much work Darren puts in to these vehicles. I know what his attention to detail is like as my project has taken 15 months so far and is still an ongoing process. On that point I can’t wait for the review you’re going to do on mine and to get your views on the new icon2 we’ve designed and built together.

Hopefully everything is working fine now, so that you can enjoy it when the weather is improving. I had a similar problem with the rebuild of my engine; pistons and rings had to be renewed, because of smoke, which is essentially burning oil.

Is the Icon 2 better as a daily than the GP3, given they are both around the same performance? Suspension on the GP is too firm most people say

Unfortunately, there comes a time when you're chasing HP with upgrades and seeing your bank balance dive for very little result. I mean, what's the total cost so far including the cost of PP? Then compare it to the cost of a car with equal performance and driveability
@PetrolPed5 ай бұрын
We will list the cost once completed. This project isn’t about chasing horsepower or budget. It’s about making something awesome 🙌
@AdamForeman5 ай бұрын
@@PetrolPed I bet your stock Porsche will be cheaper and better than PP at the end of the project and that's a bit silly.
