We Stripped and Modified Izzy Hammond's Supercharged Mini!

[@jakeeffertz181]

Wasn't Izzy supposed to do all this work??

[@Papa_Aurelio]

That's what I was going to say!

[@cookiedoughdynamo2747]

It's also not quite the direction I expected the mini to go in.

[@paulchambers2379]

She is, someone has to pay for it 😂.

[@midnightrider6985]

Looks like she did the welding 😂

[@Slarty_42]

She changed the oil filter.

[@Krynis]

obviously I have the benefit of seeing the future and that Izzy does get her own mods to do but also this is the stuff that should be done professionally or at least semi professionally not by someone doing their first car so I personally approve but it might have been nice to have her on set but she has a life outside of DT I am sure.

[@alexblaxell7983]

So where was Izzy for the Izzy race car build? Also any one else see that weld😵‍💫

[@stannerscc]

Just came into the comments to see if anyone mentioned the weld. 🤣

[@frederickvondinkerberg7721]

"Hammond's Mini" is actually a true statement

[@Gmh6477]

Must be nice to get all that supplied and fitted for free.

[@K1W1fly]

Iffy looking welds.... what exactly did that bloke do in F1, sweep the garage?

[@harrystedman3782]

🤣

[@kings3803]

That shelve system is so smart. If you had a few of them the space you would save would be massive. If you could have a smaller building that costs less so eventually they will pay for themselves as you lease and rates would be cheaper for a small building.

[@sianwarwick633]

That is one sharp set-up

[@lachy1709]

Watched to see the welds everyone kept mentioning- you'd think with the hammond tendency to roll cars they'd get someone who can actually weld to put in the safety features

[@richharvey530]

Worked with that shelf system in my last job. Great space saver and great to hide from the boss in!* *Wasn't me. It was someone else!

[@CaydeSmax]

nice vid guys, nice to see mike learning more stuff ! Hope you guys film izzy's reaction to the finished car !

[@jjvdk90]

Alternative title: Hammond’s mini’s Mini

[@Oi1Suzy]

11:01 I'm surprised with THAT level of organisation there wasn't a James May sized hole in the wall within seconds

[@predawnbobcat]

Izzy pulled a sickie then

[@spruce4980]

Those welds on that plate are questionable

[@Copesthetic-Aesthetic]

Best of the best. DMG Mori's, automatic stock handling. These fellers are making quality products folks. I bet they even use fancy coolant in the machines to 🐸

[@declanaston446]

Mighty ducks of anaheim cap, nice

[@LiqdPT]

Ya, he always seems to be wearing a Ducks cap. Not sure why..

[@djsdesigns]

What was wrong with the Mini's speedometer and electrical fault? (02:33 into the video) is it a trip? Faulty cable? Negative battery cable issue? I have same issue with my 2006 Mini.

[@tampabayautomotive]

I looked at Lohen parts for my R60 (especially the WRC wing), they’re just expensive for the US

[@Chris-e4c]

Welcome to Mikes mini that izzy will sometimes sit in

[@londoncentral]

I'm sure that was the filter side he started undoing and not the pump. But finished up the install on the correct side 🤔

[@dalliance36]

Was about to say the same , having just changed the fuel pump on my 03 Cooper S , I was sat here thinking " ermm thats the side where the filter sits ! "

[@kinglouiesshed8995]

Izzy vs VBH needs to happen 😂😂😂

[@nevis71]

nice big bins in the back

[@LordClunk]

Put it head to head on the Nürburgring against Taylor (Out of that Auto Alex and all that) Hetherington's Mini.

[@CPRElijah]

Better warn Taylor, his Mini is very blowy upy 😂

[@olliecox060202]

literally had the same idea

[@andym1908]

BBR & Hartge had 275bhp out of the R53 20 yrs ago . Richard Hammond drove them track on Top Gear . Along with the JCW from Mini uk .The BBR & Hartge were just a chip and boost increase .

[@timwilliams2343]

there is no way that either the BBR or the Hartge made anything close to 275hp

[@DesertWolf392]

Last I checked, this was Izzy's car. So why isn't she doing it. If she's busy fair enough then you wait, its her car. Not Mike's

[@alphaenterprise2232]

Mike the man who will drove drivetribe down the gutter, 5th gear equivalent

[@nikovanderauwera2854]

That welding on that cage to the chassis looks not great.

[@Murray_23]

Thought the same! Also don’t think there’d be a mig anywhere near the Mercedes f1 team

[@AdamDavies-os4ir]

Them welds 😢

[@urbanstrencan]

awesome build Izzy will definitely enjoy that MINI, great video you should do an EV conversion project car with Fellten

[@SgHawk144]

Really squeezing every last drop out of the Hammond name.

[@alphaenterprise2232]

Of course because drivetribe runs dry on content

[@opexo]

those mods just scream "Richard"! :D

[@ektrolleyboy]

Do Maxwell’s eyebrow’s come with their own carry-case?

[@HoracioGarciaMusic]

backing track sounds like "so we won't forget" by Khruangbin

[@BansheeBunny]

I surprised Richard didn't mandate, a full roll cage.

[@JesseBusman1996]

Cool!!

[@7spower998]

2:51 Lucas Electrics

[@dorpersatdawn]

Seems like you just finding Top gear related cars to get headlines ?

[@jayb2617]

that weld was not from a f1 race mech, at least i hope not

[@srirachasauce8430]

A K Swap would be more cost effective than building a race spec mini engine

[@AsadMulla]

No ads?

[@rachelbrinkley3240]

How DARE Mike break that clip on Izzy's car That should have been Hammond's job

[@ivorproblem1332]

I really wish people would not lean or sit on a car! Have respect for it.

[@pjccwest]

🙂

[@davelee71]

Wrecked it 😢 clean examples are becoming hard to find

[@nigelwest3430]

Surprising lack of protection on the body wiring harness

[@C0bra_Commander]

Izzy is MIA

[@MudSluggerBP]

This was a very dry episode 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@kenrossaukrsa]

R50-53s are real rattly shitboxes😂

[@mikehammond3403]

Disappointing. Was looking forward to seeing Izzy do her own car, it is supposed to be her car. Why is Mike sticking his oar in?

[@martynrollinson]

What's next? This was Hammond' s Wheely bin! Clarksons neighbors old bike? May's old,.,. Shameless clickbait name dropping.

[@K1W1fly]

I think its a bit sad - When I saw all the mods done on Hammonds Land Rover, I thought, wouldn't it be better if they modded say, a Mountain rescue land rover, rather than a multi-millionaire celebrities one.

[@_stoatchaser]

Another car butchered. Still haven't forgiven you for the Mondeo

[@JohnCross-rz5uq]

VERY annoying with music and speech at the same time when you have tinnitus !

[@Wonkamandan]

No Izzy doing anything and Mike hardly touches a spanner it’s more let’s get companies to supply and for while We film auto Alex and his channels have been a game changer and really blown all the other car channels out the water

[@petermercer5968]

How on earth is Izzy even going to fit into a race car. She's not exactly small,in other words she's not going mountain climbing any time soon.

[@SpectrumofSmarts]

Bro, don't be rude.

[@stevenhearnden6103]

Utterly disgusting cars. Ideal for the Hammonds.

[@robinhadley]

Wheres Izzy. Get rid of Mike he loves his own voice too much.
