This has been one of the most time consuming and expensive rebuilds ive ever done! But in the video i finally complete the Mercedes C63 W204 i bought crash damaged over 1 year ago. The car was wrecked and we have replaced pretty much everything. But i received a letter from Mercedes AMG which told me i need to bring it back! Not what i wanted after repairing it.

You killed it Mat 💯💥💥
How is the Murcialago doing
Now I want a C63 just so I can take it to Mallory performance to get the MA tune
"NEEDS" it back, genius.
What I find most impressive about all this.. Is that I'm sitting here at my mum and dad's house for Sunday tea, and the whole family is sitting watching Mat on the big screen. This is mad to me.. I've went from sitting by myself watching an episode on my phone, to sitting down with a bunch of non-car people who find you entertaining enough to watch every Sunday evening.
Wholesome!
This is so relatable! My mum loves watching Mat and always asks me for updates on his cars 😂
Lovely stuff!
Can confirm mum's love Matt at dinner time

Please never get rid of that car. What an absolute beaut of a machine. Well done Mat, smashed it 👍🏻💪🏻
this is now my favorite car channel. this guy is so genuine. Doesn't flex his cars, works hard, and succeeds which is so cool to see.
you can genuinely see the enjoyment he gets from this even if there was no camera. Very wholesome.
Yeah bro
Yeah, I really like this channel, too.
How the hell do you keep smiling through all the agg you got rebuilding that car ? The tenacity and drive you have is on a different level, I never thought I could be so enthralled on watching a video of a car that bad been fighting and repaired. My old mate was always buying stuff from auction or Ebay that was minced I talked him out of a range rover sport as it was delivered about to be unloaded of a transporter, all collapsed with a nice tide mark where it had been swimming . Unfortunately it never stopped there he died with several unfinished projects that his mrs Baisicaly gave away bless her, best Chanel by far on CZcams imo in every aspect. Respect young man brings a big smile to this miserable old bastards face 🤙
I couldn't wipe the smile off my face the whole time watching this. The c63 has been the most involved project on your channel and seeing it finally come to fruition is so satisfying. Great stuff as always Mat ❤️
facts!!!
Very true. I loved every episode to the point i have watched each one 1,000,000 times!
Mat. The c63 is a jewel of a car and your build is amazing even with the issues you have had. Welll done
Hug j
I would pick this from all his builds. Insane power, best sound ever, German quality, Mercedes comfort and it's practical. An amazing treat.
I work for a Mercedes dealership based in Holland and seeing you pull out that letter regarding the airbag made me chuckle a little bit. We do around 10 airbag replacements per day.
The way you are filming the vids is just amazing. I can see the improvement over the years. Love the cinematics and love you guys!❤
Matt is not a mechanic ..................... But an engineer👨🔧
He's a pioneer haha
matt is a maniac
Rev Demon👹
He's actually british
More an artiste
👩🎨
The body shop have done an Amazing job on the respray the colour is so nice amazing to see the C63 looking like it’s just left the showroom 👊🏻👌🏻 Well done Matt again for all your hard work!!
Check the gaps and fitments 🧐
When he measured the arch gap you could see massive amounts of orange peel
Horrible job to de honest . Orange peel and panel gabs
@@drunknspike Orange peel can be polished out
@@steviegee8413 you expect a newley painted car to be perfect when you pay and pick it up and not to have to take it back to get polished out I have an issue with a car I had painted 3 times it had to go back to get sorted
Found your channel 2 days ago and binged 5 so far 😂. This has definitely been my favourite and my dream car! Maybe I'll get one, one day. Just a genuine lad and always smiling throughout everything. Keep them coming Mat! 💪🏻
Saw this on the road Sunday and can agree it looks awesome on the road and has got a nice presence. Definitely a head turner. Nice job on the rebuild!!
After a month, the colour choice was spot on. So many going down the solar yellow route, I'm glad you made yours unique and just as beautiful.
After viewing most of the other projects on here you’ve referenced the C63 a lot. Finally seen every episode and can see why! What an amazing build so many issues and the modifications added more problems. Literally blood, sweat and tears. What a reward though it’s an absolute beast of a car 😁👍
Absolutely awesome Matt, I’m more of a bike guy and the cars I can afford are just transport. The cars you build are just dreams to me but it’s magical watching you bring crashed cars back to life only better than they where when new. Well done that man👍
Never let your dreams fade fella
You never know whats awaiting you
May god bring your dreams to life
❤️
Ever thought about activating DRS on that wing?
Could be a video in that ... 🤔
That green is awesome Matt! Class build 👏
@@MatArmstrongbmx beautiful!
Huge respect for you Mat and of course for Hanna and all your friends behind your shoulders- u all doing amazing job I just can imagine how cool is your live is 👏🏻👏🏻🔥♥️
Dare you to do it to the caddy
All of this is just incredible. Mats intelligence, hard work. Camera quality got so much better. Video itself is so fine tuned, my man got 3 promotions in a video and its not feeling like its forced. That little edited sequence of the car. Fucking well done man! That revs after the tune made me emotional haha. Crazy
Love watching these videos Mat and how the. Handel has grown. The Merc is a monster. Can’t wait for the next instalment.
great job, great series, immense attitude - what I like the most is your relentless strive toward being positive no matter how many oil leaks are present))
and even though we all know that off camera its not always a G-rated material, I hope that young lads who are just starting to mess about with cars in their parents driveway will learn to persevere no matter how daunting the task is and will always stay positive
P.S. cherry on top - painting c63 into bmw color) what's next? a red-white car with LCFC decals?)
That c63 is proper badass. For me, your best build so far. Absolutely love it. Top content👍👍👍
Keep it up matt not long found ur channel but now am addicted. Loved everything uv done and been binge watching ur channel
Thanks bro!
Same here
Same here, be much better if Hannah was in them more though…
Been waiting for this so long. Really happy to see the final full build of it as it looks absolutely fabulous. Really happy to see one of my dream cars being revived in that way. Well done Mat and all the best! ❤️
The colour is very very ugly
Nahh the colour is absolutely good
Mat I love your channel! One thing that I might have missed on this build is how you worked out lining up the rear tail pipes to go through the tips on the rear bumper. I was waiting for the bumper to melt or catch fire everytime you got on the throttle. I still don't know how you had the patience to push through this build. Awesome job bud!
You can’t beat that laugh Matt every time you drive that car, that’s why you do these projects, the enjoyment you get out of it when they’re complete says it all.
I can’t lie I’m quite jealous of it it’s a very good looking car, and the editing and the filming, looks near professional your smashing this mat 👊🏻
Absolutely gorgeous color wheel options you did an amazing job, but definitely get those panel gaps taken care of!!!
That sound is amazing. It's absolutely amazing. Props to your "almost brother in law" Tuner!
Just binge-watched the whole C63 build. Amazing. You have so much belief and patience, Mat. Nothing seems to defeat you and you have no fear of just giving it a go. Nice work!
This is such a beautiful machine, I'm literally in awe just looking at how much progress you've made on this, alot of respect goes your way from me.
Great videos Matt. I've just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I'm really enjoying it. The c63 especially as I've just bought my own, mine's pretty mint so I'm not going to mess with it much but great to see what can be done. It looks so much more aggressive with the black series body kit.
Well done! All work you done look amazing and you give the right info for un-experts like me on what to look for when buying new cars! Thanks for that!
I consider the C63 your best rebuild so far. You have great taste and like a wrap...stickability! Look forward to your future challenges.
As usual smashed it out the park, great to see someone with so much enthusiasm doing something they love and bringing so much joy to us petrolheads 👍👍👏
Amazing guy and amazing garage work and the cars are out of this world, this is my favorite car channel by far, love your videos mate sending you all the best and luck from Eire
I have to say the C63 w204 is my dream car... you have truly made this one, a one off. Incredible transformation, especially with the black series body kit on the 4 door version. You know what, if this thing came roaring down the road I would think black series or Brabus... normal c63 is not what would come to mind.
This is truly amazing to see what you have done and how far your channel has grown, big fan mate... just sad to see all the emotions and happiness the combustion engine cars bring out in all the car enthusiasts are going to be taken away by the electric and hybrid powered cars... keep up the great work Mat, you smashed this classic and made it a Mat Armstrong original 💪🏼
Mat, you are as always, an inspiration!
Thank you for providing such amazing content.
Oh man, I started watching when you first bought this car, what a journey. It looks absolutely INSANE compared to when you started! I can't wait to see what's up next!
Ahh I'm wanting to put long tube headers on mine now. Smashing video yet again Matt, for me one of the best so far. That pull at 15.29 is why you buy these cars. Keep up the great work.
Had the privilege to be a delivery driver and took 4 C63s from Birmingham to Carlisle one at a time in just under 1 .30mins at night still got my licence and big smile on my face
I've discovered this channel 2 months ago and I've literally watched all the video. What an energy, what charisma, what inspiration. Keep going mate!!
Hannah's reaction is priceless! 🤣 love the colour and a big supporter of your channel since day 1!! Well done matt 🙌
Mercedes didn't want the car back, they sent you a Recall notice to have something fixed. It's no big deal. While you are at the dealership they can do a full inspection and clear all the trouble codes.
You know Mat i watched the rebuild of your C63 to a point it was even stretching me as if it was mine,😅😅 but to be honest it was entertaining as well and im glad you painted this one instead of just wrapping it...i have to say its by far my favorite car on top off the list. Much love
Well done on the build mat and I can say from 12 years of ownership it will constantly put a smile on your face 👌
My excitement when I saw the title!! We have a w204 merc at home, and this series has inspired me to work on it. This is the video I've been waiting for!
That rev gave me so much joy…weldone and much respect to you ❤️
This is total sick, i normal hate green cars, but absolutely love what you have done. Awesome job Mat. I know i gave you some stick about the Rangie, but that has now grown on me. Hats off too you.
So glad it's finished well worth the wait the colour contrast looks epic well done matt 👏 👍
You know these videos are lit when you have to pause at the start to get the snacks set up right and cast onto the big screen to take it in properly 🙌🏾 wicked stuff Matt!
Stunning, stunning, stunning! I am lost for words. Great job, mate. What a beautiful beast of a car, looks like you're thoroughly enjoying it!
is it just me or does everyone feel like they've accomplished something and feeling proud as if we rebuilt this car even though we're just behind a screen ?
That green looks absolutely awesome! Great choice.
Colour and wheels look mega!!! I’m so sorry mate but I hate the rear spoiler - would look so much classier with a more subtle version ❤
A GREAT job lads. Phil is clearly a handy chap to know.
Having previously did bodywork, watching matt has given me the bug again....the last car was an audi a3 & I ended up lifting a 19" alloy and throwing it through the windscreen lol....but I'm going to get back into it (not the a3 haha).thanks matt. Super channel
Amazing content as usual. Would love to see a drag race between the Aston, c63 and the range. Addicted to your content
Great car
as always managed to finish the impossible
But i can't help to not notice the misaligned panels (panel gaps)
I was wondering about that. I haven't seen the previous videos so perhaps there's a reason for it, but the bonnet to wheel arches gaps are a little large :(
Did we miss the repair of the right front inner arch/sill or did it just get hidden by the wheel arch liner?
The c63 sound is so intoxicating. Always loved that car since first saw it on Top Great with Clarkson driving that yellow monster. Great job Matt ..
New editor (or editing style) is killing it with pacing, lay out and mostly music choice. Definitely a keeper
Didn’t think I’d changed the style tbf 🤷♀️
@@MatArmstrongbmx I think what it might be then is just better music choices, suspenseful music during the story parts and then more chilled out during the timelapse etc. Just feels better paced.
Man he works hard, taking on the suspension at 9pm, appreciate the energy.
Hannah's face & reaction when you put your foot down Mat, Classic, what a motor 👍
We are loving your channel, we have followed your journey from the Audi TT and continue to binge watch your videos when time allows. Keep up the good work you do....
Awesome! But, with that power I’m kind of thinking you could have pulled it under the radar a tad by NOT fitting such a pronounced spoiler. Plus, refinishing the brake callipers in the green to match the paint job would be top drawer I reckon.
Under the radar making that noise 😂
@@smoggy1964 I am referencing looks, not noise.
@@garynorman lmao yeah we know, even without the spoiler theyd be able to track it
Sick 63!! One inch more on the wheels would have been perfect!
What an incredible journey.
Loved all the episodes on this.
What an amazing car.
I'm not mad on cars. They are a means to get from A to B as fast as possible whilst remaining dry.
But this guy is a rare thing. Only Ed China really came close.
He shows his mistakes, which is good. He gives good advice. All of this in an entertaining way. Keep up the good work
I honestly preferred the black wheels. I think that with the dark window tint the black wheels made it looks more stealthy.
same
You are correct I believe bit it still look awsome
I understand updating the suspension, but why in the world do you people think that you have to slam a car down, till the suspension is not working properly. The Gap around that tire was perfect, it does not have to go lower. It looks wrong when it's that low. And you cannot have a car without proper suspension travel work properly. Especially if you're going to drive it on the streets where other humans are driving.
Right? Can can ride much better with a meatier tire and it will fix the fitment I understand in the front tho maybe lower it and get it tight
Not autobahn in UK, looks cool’s sells faster & for more I guess?
As a petrol head US Citizen in Florida but born in Leicestershire….love this channel….Instant subscriber. The content is amazing Mat…you have a great team
Sick car man sounds just like my late 2011 C63 which i also rebuilt from prior damage. Cat delete, Xpipe, and tune really woke it up! When tuned these cars are pure madness!
You’ve gained 90k subs in 3 weeks. 690k subs congratulations 👏 such a mint channel, still wouldn’t brave touching a car even after watching all these videos 😂 I really admire your bravery
start with an oil change and work your way up
Click bait title, Mercedes issued a recall letter, they didn't want it back.
Aha!
When a rolling road technicians eyes light up, you know you have something special and have done a great job achieving it 👊👑 that thing sounds fucking insane bro!!
Love the enthusiasm! That giggle when on the gas....I felt that!
clickbait title
Ty
Still great vids
Clickbait comment
@@LargeCarTruckerI am going to watch this because of you, I hope I’m not disappointed haha
Yes
Misleading video title - clickbait.
All down to Matts personality and enthusiasm, always has a smile on his face. Even my Mrs watches this with me, nice one.
Me and my dad watch your videos every week!! We found your channel when you bought the Range Rover. Been binge watching your content ever since!! :)
You are amazing mate. Basicly this is my dream job transforming damaged car's like this.
This is such a satisfying video, so happy for you! Drive safe ❤
Car looks stunning Matt love the colour mate and banging bhp well done 💯
Just wanna say I've always liked the c63 amg's but not 100% on the colour of the car, personally I think an electric blue would make it pop a bit more with them wheels you have now. Keep up the crazy yet amazing work bud, you've brightened my week and my life since I started following you. You've made me want to buy a crash damaged car and challenge myself to get it on the road.
You Nailed it again…….Friends are now also following you all the way from Malta…….
I'm sitting here holding my school books watching matt drive this car and I'm like can't he just give the C63 to me😂😂 I got mad love for Mercedes
I'm an addict of this channel 😌
I've got the c63 w205 model and that's an animal. So yours must be immense with 520+ bhp going to the rear wheels. These and the w205's are the last generation of big horse power rear wheel drive cars.
What an engine that 6.2 lump is.
Great series of rebuild videos 👍
Hannah’s face when Mat booted the C63 😂 What a car and such an awesome build series to watch. This channel just keeps on getting better and better! ❤❤
A lot of CZcamsrs would make a video for remap for paint and one for the suspension u throw it all in one video I like that 👌
One of my favourite builds yet, What a monster! 🔥
That colour is smashing! Vibrant yet classy at the same time.
Cheers from Canada!
Looks and sounds stunning.
Sorry if I missed this but
what happened with the creased area to the rear of the front wing?
Love the vids, great to watch.👍
Sounds amazing after the remap. Put a huge smile on my face
Absolutely incredible results, talk about a car that’s been reborn!!
Respect 4 this guy just 4 having no adds!!! Let alone a siiiiccckkkk ride 🤮💯💥
great to see that the wheels i put on my mercedes you put on yours. i must have a bit of knowledge 🤣. i love the car matt.
This thing sounds amazing, as close as a car gets to a spitfire, cracking stuff!!!
Wow. I'm not a fan of the colour choice, but that car is insane. We need to enjoy cars like this as much as we can, because one day in the not too distant future I fear that combustion engines will disappear from our streets forever.
Keep up the good work.
This has to be one of the fastest frowning CZcams channels I’ve seen. I joined at 120k and that don’t even feel like that long ago😯 🤩
Absolutely unreal that pal loved watching that series what a motor 🤙🏽
Absolutely love it! Love mat, love his videos, and love the sound of this car 😍
