  • What a journey this has been. In this episode we finally get Roger (Auto Alex's Classic BMW E30 Touring) Painted and fully complete! What a restoration journey indeed! It's a bitter sweet moment as me and Roger have spend a lot of time together, but on the flip side, Roger now is better than brand new, fully restored and is ready for the road once more!
    We took Roger to Shed Fest 2024 & handed over the keys back to Alex. We also met some amazing people and had a fantastic day. Its like the end of an era.
    We will have another episode of this car, showcasing the entire restoration from start to finish. But for now, if you have enjoyed the journey and the video, please consider hitting that like and subscribe button. And as always, we will catch you in the next one!

    Awesome work, my one gripe as a BMW mechanic would be the rear designation numbers aren’t quite right and once you see it, it’s something that stands out. BMW is very particular with the placement and we have detailed measurements for every model.

Do it right, do it to the customer's expectations and don't cut corners. Reputations run on ethics, professionalism and love of the job. The YCR crew has all of these pre=requisites/ Well done.

    It's been an absolute pleasure watching the car being restored to it's former glory, and with Colin Furze's E3 also being restored at the same time fun to compare which car was more rusty, (it was Colin's).
    Looking forward to seeing the worlds most famous Mazda Mx-5 getting restored.

    @enigma237 Před měsícem +1

    How come you guys used a 2k solid instead of the traditional 2 stage paint basecoats nowadays. I know it's cheaper but surely it'll just fade again after awhile as it doesn't have strong UV protection. Guessing it was for time reason but still a good paint job though. Unfortunately I missed this at shedfest :(
