I attempted to take my lamborghini murcielago that my dad and i had just rebuilt on the Gumball 3000 rally. But it only made it as far as London until it broke down. It picked up alot of problems on the way and now i have to solve as many as i can before taking it to Lamborghini themselves!

The best thing about this channel is not Mat and his cars… It’s Mat and his Dad 😍
I agree. Their bond is what many wish for but don't have lol
Dad must be so proud
Agree, I hope I can work on things with my girls when they're older too. What a blessing
Man i would like to help my dad rebuildin his jeep tho 😕
Teaching us young lads how important it is to stick around
Where the car has come from to where it is now is night and day. Very well done Mat and Dad. Fantastic.
Utmp
You’ve saved this car. Congratulations
Wow it's been like 9 months from when they started?
I knew someone would say something about scfc 🤦🏽♂️😂
Mate the car is a complete fucking mess, and he paid 100 grand for it
One thing I love about Matt is that he doesn't see obstacles, he only sees solutions. This is very priceless
Hi! We have an old saying here in France:" there's no problems only solutions!"...it fit well to this channel and Tavarish one😉
Triumph over adversity appears to be Matt's mantra
Isn't this the only way to look at difficult situations faced, put your mind to it and there's not a lot you can't overcome, as Mat keeps showing time and time again
Obviously he know who Zedd is :D
Matt keep the car with you forever don’t sell it you and your dad have spent hours and hours on the rebuild. Proud of you both
I would keep it, just hope he can find tyres!
A lot of rebuild CZcamsrs don’t explain how parts of the cars work. I like how you explain every detail of why something isn’t working so in this video the relay for the fan and other stuff.
You are so close to the finish line on all the repairs, hope to see it repainted and detailed and maybe a trip to Nurburgring to drive like you stole it. Good job Dad.
This is Matt Armstrong, this is not close to the finish line by any means, it will be heavily modded and look amazing when done.
@@matthewlaw8268 Should surely be kept original!
@@QrankChannel nah, life would be boring if everything was the same
At least this stage is close to the finish line. The majority of the gremlins have been eliminated. I can't wait to see what's the next step in the evolution of this project.
@@QrankChannel I also hope its keept the same color, maybe a darker shade.
I love how happy Mat's dad is all the time. It must be a pleasure to have someone so knowlegeable and upbeat to share your passion with.
This dude is so positive. Even when shot goes horribly wrong or he buys a bad car he sunhow turns it into a positive, it's awesome! Keep up the awesome work matt, u r a huge motivation to us all!
Alternator charge should ideally be between 14.2-14.6 volts. You're still a little low, but maybe add an earth strap or two at different ends of the car to ensure good ground connection.
Just came to say the same thing. Checked down the comments first though, and here you are! 😁👍
@@MrMairu555 Thanks! Although I expect Mat only sees 5-10% of comments, so no harm in mentioning it a few times.
I was wondering about this too, given the kinda universal nature of some these electrical faults, look for a grounding-to-chassis issue
That or I can rebuild the alternator for you. I imagine the amount of jump pack shenanigans has blown a couple of diodes
You mean the „o-en-a-errr“? 2:29
You know I think you've kinda reached that level of iconic'ness (yeah that's a made up word but I'm sticking with it)..... that no matter how much a car you rebuild doesn't make sense to do financially, it will always be profitable because of the story you give it. You're a legend mate and all your resurrections will be equally as legendary.
iconicity?
Iconicafied I believe is the pepper term. 😅
5:28 I literally love how you explain little technical things someone like myself doesn’t understand. 😂❤
It's always the way, you get much better results when you aren't stressing and trying to fix everything before Gumball.
Congratulations on this Lambo build mate. All the stories are already epic. More to come i'm sure. 👍👍
I love your dad’s laugh. You are so blessed to still have him “wiff yew”.
This channel is simply A+++. Mat and his Dad are a joy to watch. Very informative and funny
Honestly Mat have done a great job on this murcielago considering the condition it was previously. It looked dead near impossible to get it to this point of state.
I learned something, nothing is hard,it's all about having faith in yourself & getting started with confidence and positive hopes, thts all it takes. Give it your all, your time, your strength you name it. Whatever it is you'll surely make it. Good one Armstrong 👍 👏
And Money 💰
@@kennethlaibson6506I was going to say the same thing, working on cars is awesome when you have plenty money to buy spares and tools as needed.
It was epic to see the Murci on the gumball! Great work from you, your dad, and crew! Can’t wait to see that beast cleaned up, painted/wrapped!
Always amazed at how many people and friends and family can get SERIOUSLY involved in repairing a central locking issue. Dismantling; wondering;..... basically spending hours and hours fiddling about to mend the issue ONLY because the car is a Lambo.
If it were your sister in law's vauxhall astra virtually NO ONE would lift a finger.
Welcome to the AMAZING world of Branding and advertising.
The POWER of influence.
Love the connection between you and your dad!! Its priceless and your vlogs are amazing. You make my day when you and pops are working together on projects. Thank you Matt. The murci rebuild has been my favorite
As with most dads your old man is a legend!! Keep the content coming boys!! 👊🏻
Are there any news regarding the Murcielago? Everybody wants to see the finished version of this car.
Incredible tenacity, perseverance and character. What an achievement. (I would have chucked my tools out my toolbox many episodes ago.)
I found myself genuinely smiling and chuckling at your response to the car Mat…what an amazing journey you’ve been on with it already and it’s so satisfying fixing all those niggles, can’t wait to see what’s next for it!!
Love to see you doing this journey with your dad now and creating memories. He has to be apart of every build now 👍🏼
I love the look on Mat's Dad. Its like his so happy just being there and being involved.
Quite clear where Mat has his enthusiasm from, just one look at his dad's face explains it all. Keep up with the good work Mat and Dad (and rest of the crew of course)
Your dad's seems like such a nice guy! Always smiling.. Absolutely love the father son relationship!
You know it’s nice to watch the bond between mat and his dad. Not often you get to see many people enjoy their passion with their parents. So close to getting the Merci finished now enjoyed watching this
Tony Tony Tony, the man of the hour 😂 great video Matt, really enjoyed how much fun everyone had in this video, I’ve never seen so many things go right when fixing a car 😂
Cannot wait for fully painted and fully fixed Lambo!!! I hope the next episode will be also about your dream car. Keep it going the good work Matt!!! 🏎🏎🏎
What a ride. I found your Channel yesterday and decided to give it a go and I have been so happy to see you actually doing this yourself and showing what goes right and wrong and in such detail to let us know how painful it can be. The smile on my face when the engine finally ran was so big because I was so invested into this haha.
Loved it, can´t wait for more now :)
Considering this Lamborghini had been a track day car, mistreated daily, then left to rot for 7 years to where it is now is incredible. This is a long term ownership, so the items picked up by Lamborghini can be sorted over time. What you have Mat is time spent with your dad all recorded for prosperity and what will be a highly desirable car. I can’t wait to see it fully finished with new paint, air conditioning and taken on a road trip far less gruelling than Gumball 3000. What a story and memories you have built as well as fantastic content for us. Looking forward to the next instalment as well as new challenges ahead. Congrats Mat, what a Chanel and content creator👍🇬🇧
Even though the car has some problems still, it’s amazing to see where it is now compared to a few months ago! Keep up the good work Mat and make this thing as perfect as possible!
I love how real you are in your videos Mat. Looking forward to the next one. Cheers🎉
More to come!
A totally brilliant from episode 1 to finish binge watch. The highs and lows, the detective work, the total bodges discovered and rectified. I absolutely loved it. Well done all on your fantastic job well done.
Your old man is a brilliant addition to the channel.
Screw gumball, you did the right thing sorting out all the issues first. Screw Lamborghini dealers as well. You might think they're not impressed but that is because you did the repairs yourself and saved tons of money.
Loving this lambo series and to see it on Gumball 3000 is amazing! Keep the videos coming Mat, fantastic work 😊
I really like your explanations of electrical. The hand motions sold me and kept me interested
13:23 the face that just screams "reliability" 😂
already know it’s gonna be a good one
Feel's like I just saw this video an hour ago 😂
out of all the channels i watch and follow, this guy is by far the most real, genuine, and down to earth human being ive seen. just recently found te channel but i find myself rooting for Mats success
Bro your dad deserves a build of his own. He has been so helpful during your builds.
One of the best rebuild channels on CZcams at this point. Keep it up Mat!
In my humble opinion, I'd say "The best" rebuild channel. And the main reason for that comes down to the content and at lot to do with Marks personality, he comes across very likeable well I suppose if he didn't his channel would flop.
You probably could cross-check the real odometer reading between modules. VCDS (service software for VAG Group) has an built in option to check a real mileage, and it checks all of the modules for any inconsistencies. If VCDS would work for the pre-LP Murci, that could be an option to check an actual reading, and then to correct the cluster reading
Think this is long before they had that functionality. Usually on the older ones you just have one attempt to program whatever mileage you want.
I've reached to him a few month ago to try to save the mileage from the old odometer, he never responded... I wanted to desolder, read the eeprom and try to figure out the real mileage.
@@MattyEngland VW Golf MK4 has that functionality since ~2000-2001 if I recall correctly so maybe pre-LP Murci has that as well
@@WhathefrenchTV Just the mileage from the last MOT plus 1000 miles would probably be close enough, but extracting the EPROM would have been interesting.
@@karcio424 Ah right, it must vary across the VAG range then as I've programed clusters on 2002 Audis and Seat Leon's and neither had the function. As long as the new clusters were 'virginised' you got one attempt to enter the correct mileage, (although it had to be done in KM and then reverted to miles later) and then once it was set that was it.
Congratulations!!! Thank you for sharing with us all this! Great Great job with all the cars!!!
Love the relationship you and your Dad have...amazing.
Enjoy watching all your builds but this lambo has been by far the most interesting to follow ive learnt alot just by watching, cant wait to see it all painted, hopefully going back to its original colour 😮
Realistically speaking Mat, did you really think the car was gonna survive that 😂
nope 😂😂😂
@@MatArmstrongbmx we all knew it would break sometime ! But it was all little stuff lol i figured the engine would disintegrate into peices !
Wow. What a trip and thank you for sharing it with us. I was going to ask if you were planning to do a recap video but your ebook surpasses that. Outstanding!
What a great rebuilt series.. Hats of to Mat and his dad Tony! 👏🏼👍🏼
Only real fans know this is a reupload
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but It looks so good like it is, I don’t think you should paint it…
I love how your dad lets you learn for yourself before nudging you to his thoughts and im sure your dad has learnt alot from your ways. Love the videos and love your positivity
This series is the best series in this channel
Not impressed with the service from that lamborghini dealer
Yeah seemed pretty crappy alright👍🏾👍🏾 I’d have to agree…
Yes, quite shocked to compare how the Lamborghini dealer treated Mat versus the other dealers he has visited. Now I >really< want to see Mat rebuild a Ferrari just to see how the Ferrari dealer treats him!
Great to see this at Goodwood yesterday! Beautiful job hats off to you and your dad ,🎉
Fascinating. Always moving forward fixing one problem at the time. I much love you and your dad constant positivity! Cheers
I'm a youtube junkie, have been for years - this is the best channel I've ever come across. Mat, you're a fuckin legend; your attitude, you're charisma, you're can-do, inspirational attitude, your family, your everything. Hands down the coolest person/youtuber.
Everyone can roast its looks as much as they want, i still think it looks absolutely wicked. It's got character, it's got charisma, and the Gumball 3000 stickers look absolutely sick, real talk. The car went from a landfill wreck to a fully working machine, so much love has been poured into it and everyone can clearly see that. What a legendary ride.
Your dad's face "13.2 big smile!" I love your pops 😂
Matt, I love it that you’re on this journey with your Dad, partner and friends, just perfect, it’s all about the fun you have along the way, I know how hard creating your vision can be but as we all know you only get out what you put in…. Respect to you and the fam, thanks Matt, appreciated, keep great vids comin… cheers 🍻
Hey mat! I just came to tell you yesturday I saw you driving from Lamborghini Leicester near thurmaston, me and my brother shouted ITS MAT ARMSTRONG. Love you mat keep on building!
From what I can gather, based on conversations with someone I know who owns one, this is pretty much standard for a visit to a Lamborghini dealership, bit of a shambles. Considering the state of the car when you got it, and the fact it needed a complete engine rebuild, this is an absolute triumph for you and your dad.
Solid 9!! You’ve done an awesome job rebuilding what many thought couldn’t be done!
Your dad is amazing!
Keep dropping these vids and super stoked that you’ve got so many problems fixed!
Solid 9!!!
Matt, your dad laughs like the gangster ‘Jonny’ from Home alone 5:55 😂😂
Bravo !!! Congratulations on resolving those issues !!!
Tony’s experience is so valuable!
"Solid 9!" 🤣💯 I'm not that in to cars but you (and your dad) make it fun to watch. 👍👍
I have followed you from start to finish on this one man.. I just wanna give you big ups and thanks for sharing with us. I always look forward to watching your progress vids and I’m a big fan. Thanks so much for your craft
Never cease to be amazed by you and your Dads ability to find and solve problems. Nothing ever phases you or has you beat.
Great vid enjoyed every minute….keep em coming
You, your dad, and the others who have worked on this car should be very proud of all the work you have done. It's a bit annoying that the dealer wouldn't let you in the workshop as that bit is always interesting, especially since I used to be a service manager in various prestige dealerships over the years. I give you guys a full 10/10!
Matt I hope you read this now that you're so busy and all but let me tell you, this was the first video that brought a tear to my eye. 27/28min in your heartfelt joy pulling into London at night, calling the murci a "trooper" after all your hard work. It just hit my soul. Beautiful moment.
The rims are incredible
You'll get her squared away
I didn't know you but your Lambo dream is what got me subscribed and I enjoyed all the merci videos but this one brought a tear to my eye.
Congratulations mate! All the best from New York! I wish I could've been there to see you roll into London you thug! 💪💪💪
Your dad is a monster man! Old man with a lot of experience! love him!
Well done, Matt. You are a hard-working, positive soul. 🎉
My Mom and I worked on cars together, I got my love of cars from my Mom. My Dad thought we were nuts working on cars . Both my parents are gone now, it’s so nice seeing him working with his Dad!
Epic !!! Can’t wait to see what’s next, no matter what car you choose I think your style of explanation and thoroughness has us all learning with you. Love your videos !
Love seeing the journey unfold for the Murci, solid score on the health check too, looking like she will be good as new very soon 🔥
I hope Mat finishes this car. Get the frame painted with anti-rust paint. Fix all those lines, wires and pipes. It could become like a show car. A new paint job (like he did on that orange Porsche). I think it's about 86% done... Lots more to do, seeing as it's his dream car!!
I'm just lovin the vids mate. Absolutely great stuff man
Mat’s nervous giggle kills me😂😂😂😂
I find great joy in watching a father and son work on a car together and the son gets to do more than hold the flashlight.
I'm super loving the journey you are having with this car. You've gone a long way and its looking great! Can't wait for the next episode. Awesome stuff
You and the team really are Sooooper Troupers, well done guys :)
The Lambo just looks so wicked. With the stickers and the wheels. Love it.
You are an inspiration to me Mat, and your the reason I love crash damaged cars😊😊
I like the way he laughs when his engines blow
I was suspicious regards the dealer reasoning but maybe that's just me.... he seemed genuine !
I really like the relationship with your Dad, it's good to see and your very fortunate.
Your attention to detail is inspiring! Doing a 2017 Audi R8 v10 rebuild myself and learning a lot from your vid’s, thanks!
Best entertainment video I’ve seen in a long time enjoyed it very much.
Epic Mat. I am enjoying the content so much and all the people you get to meet and work with. All this car needs now is a bike rack.
Great experience, everything so tense I like I like your channel and your work
Amazing work on this one... I've been following it from the start. Goes to show that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. Very inspirational. Nicely done guys, keep it up! Also more camera time for your dad please 🙏😁 he's a legend!
Matt what you have done with what looked to me like a ton of scrap metal is truly remarkable! I salute you, Sir Matt Armstrong! Only thing left (apart from the few niggles) is paint........... Arancio Borealis
Man i really like the _vibe_ of your videos. I like even more that you and you dad bond over these projects.
My only disappointment is that ive just found this channel. Good news... I can bunge watch the old vids
Great episode ! Well done to you all, can't wait to see more episodes and this car completely finished 👍💪💪
Just watching these again with a glass of wine and really enjoying your content Matt. Bring on the Patreon. I like your videos so much I'm even tempted to try Y Foods haha. MERRY CHRISTMAS! Sam
Nice work sorting out all the little issues
