1000 LIKES AND I DO A FRONT WHEEL DRIVE SWAP WHILE MAT'S NOT LOOKING
LMAO!!!
@tavarish do it!

That would actually be a world's first. FF Lambo would also make for great merch. lmao
I'm pretty sure that for Tony it made financial sense to have a kid. He got at least a Ferrari out of the deal :)
đ
and a rolexđ
:D
Your absolutely correct
Not bad going
Rashford wasn't the only one going 30 MPH then đ
It was the tyres fault lol
No, it was the road's faultâ@@timprice516
@@timprice516it was wet, it is rwd, the tyres were semi slick and it was 1000 horsepower
â@@Gaming_with_Bobby1 it was also not rashford's fault
â@@timprice516
so basically no matter what, it wasnt Mat's fault ?
I love the way father and son work together and hold such great, fun and positive attitudes. Awesome!!
The way Hannah was looking at Matt when he was trying to convince her that a V12 swap is safe carcks me up
"and you want to make it FASTER ???"
đđđI was just looking at that
Her face was like "Noo, this boy is mad, no ways"
Hannah is the voice of reason and sensibility. It is almost like she knew it wasn't feasible.
Like, Matt, who are you trying to kid,,, yourself or me.
could see her face asif to say come on matt. Boys never grow up just get bigger toys
If every body panel is damadged, maybe make it full carbon fiber body?
Thatâs quite expensive
@@That1carlover I donât think money is Mats biggest problem
oooo that's a good idea, but it's already too expensive ain't it?
That's brilliant đ
@user-gw4oe8lg5bmansory đ
love ur dad mat... my dad is really sick and love to see the bond between you too, please take care of him! he looks like really good father
These videos are truly so enjoyable to watch. Your guys energy is always so amazing and itâs so fun
Iâm an older car enthusiast and enjoy watching your videos. I do want to say however you are very fortunate to have a father who joins you on these builds, wonderful memories that you will have with you forever. My late father developed my car bug; unfortunately my work took me away from family for decades. So when I finally retired and moved closer I had only 3 months with him before he became ill and passed away. I had hoped to enjoy mountain cruising with him in my 911 but we never had the chance. Enjoy those moments with your dad, and again good work with your videos.
Touching story â€
Sorry for your loss, we often don't appreciate/realise what we have until it's gone, I love the sentiment within your comment, what Matt has with his dad is priceless and timeless.
Sorry for your loss man. I'm so fortunate to have a dad which loves to work on my car with me (even though he always gives me a hard time đ )
Sorry for ur loss
That is not his dad. He looks 57, Mat is 53
Hey Mat! After three years of being a silent observer, I just had to break my silence to express how amazed I am by your dedication to repairing cars that have been in crashes. It's truly inspiring to see how you tackle such challenging projects without giving up. You're not just fixing cars; you're setting an example of resilience and determination. You're a true role model, reminding me of the importance of perseverance. Sending greetings from Germany! Keep up the fantastic work! â€

I absolutely love Tony.,. Such a wonderful dad to have⊠well done Mat, love from Nigeria.
If your talking about upgrading it you should definetly put a crazy widebodykit on the gallardo because alle the bodypanels have to be replaced either way and it might even be cheaper
I 100 % agree with the ideology that having kids isn't supposed to be a financial gain, and is ultimately a financial loss, but is 100% a labor of love so totally worth it.
But cars arenât that unique. I get why heâs doing it but I definitely wouldnât
Tony : Definitely not.
(After receiving a Ferrari)⊠from said child! đ
These guys are just brilliant though! đđ
Although. I bet that Ferrari is also gonna costa fortune to keep running perfect! đ
@@kylemcw8301
costs covered by CZcams though.
Yeah, Hannah doesn't look convinced at 8:17 đđđ
I think this car has given her a bit of trauma then Matt is talking about putting in a bigger engine...đ
She did look worried as f..., Matt wasnt going even fast when it happend, sooo...I can see why.
@@MiniPiez That's what he told us.......I just don't believer everything I've been told anymore, everything is questioned, more so when it's on the internet.
That timestamp is hilarious đđ
ââ@@MyCracker1234True. I think all this happened for more views and content. Like those fake rusted destroyed restoration videos.
Good luck Mat! Im sure you'll make it even better than what it was before. I'll look forward to your progress, mate đđœđȘđœđđœ
This really hits home. My OG first car broke down and I had to buy a new one, but my parents and I love that 2013 Kia soul plus so much that we're fixing it by hand ourselves if we can get it to work. Sentimental value is everything :) I hope we can save our baby! been working on it for months it's just hard when money is tight. I'm sending you good vibes and energy on this Lambo Mat, you guys got it! It's gonna be even more sentimental for you after all the work :) Love your channel! Thanks for the amazing content.

You have to admire Matâs grit fixing this car. Being around this car after he crashed it isnât as easy as people might think. Excited to see this done and back on the road!
Immense project to take on. How do you do it ...hats off to you. Thanks for sharing Matt. Good luck
Was not excited for this build but canât stop watching now Iâve started đđŒ nice work MA and team
25:55 them looking at each other and smiling was amazing
I must say, I love how Matt and Freddy, who are from 2 opposite ends of the world, get along like life long buddies, helping one another out, collaborating, sharing, ect..I watch both religiously, and I must say...they are awesome together. Keep working together guys, you both are awesome...I love watching your vids and builds.
Dad wasnât that happy when he heard the bill for the aftermarket upgrades. You are so lucky to have a dad like him, he is a must for all your videos. Good luck with your rebuild crashed âlamboâ which is far the best car which you have on your garage. Drive safe!
Love to see you and your dad and friends still so positive, could've gone a lot worse. I've had it in 2019 and was also really really really insanely lucky. A month after that I was laughing about it with my dad the same as you guys are doing now but sometimes we should remember we are blessed if it does not end like that!
I'm so happy your sponsors allow you to do all this. I really like your videos. You're always so positive no matter what.
The timing of the release of this video could not have been better. Thank you for making my Sunday evening dinner view!
I subscribe to the conspiracy theory that Mat crashed it on purpose for content.
Mat I think you need a bigger black board for the parts list, you did a proper number on it! Can't wait to see it back and looking better than everđđŒ
This channel is a bit like Clarksonâs Top Gear. Youâd watch them do anything just to watch their banter and whatever they get up to next. Mat could rebuild a washing machine and theyâd still make it a funny and amazing watch. Thatâs the gold here. Iâd be amazed in mainstream TV doesnât approach Mat for Top Gear or a program, this is better than ANYTHING on Sky etc!!
Matâs girlfriend Hanna is the greatest! She supports all of his financial madness! Thatâs REAL LOVE!
And gets a very nice life out of it..
That's because he brings home the money!
A rare woman in 2024
Money, love whats the difference đ
Yes she is. I think they should do a mini Mat as soon as possible. Even a 2 year old toddler can do a lot of work. And their hands are tiny, so they can access those hard to get tight places
You probably wonât see this mate but i have been a subscriber for a while! Recently my car decided to give up on me due to fuel contamination. The intank fuel pump decided to give up! So long story short cleaned out the fuel tank cleaned the fuel lines and fitted new intank fuel pump and the new injectors and car is running just like new again! I was quoted 3k for all that to be done and had about 3 mechanics take the car for nearly 8 months! But I fixed the car in a couple of days! as I am a lorry driver and work a lot of hours and really only have couple days out the week when back home! Anyway thanks for doing what you do and if it wasnât for you I wouldnât have the nerve to have tried it!
I still can't believe how you walked out of that with no injuries... Can't wait to see how this turns out! đ„đ

@@alejandroperez5368what are you talking about
I think you ought to do a road-trip with Freddie one time while heâs over. A South of France, or Italian Lakes trip đđ»
I think Freddy should be home working on P1
@@erickelly7897 They both tend to break supercars so yeah, staying at home working on them would a better idea.
Maybe an off road trip ?
@@supercuteguineapigs Like Matt just did with the Gallardo?
How does one remember where everything goes when you rebuild the car after dismantling it? And to make sure it is back 100%. That really amazes me.
I never understood why I have slicks on a car like that, especially in a wet country, but I'm happy ur saf3 for the car man enjoy. I wish I could
work on it with you guys
Freddy not flinching and saying you should make it front wheel drive đđ
Nice to see Kevin. Poor Hannah, you can see it in her eyes that she relives the crash in her mind.
This is incredible. What a challenge. I need to follow this process to the end. Good luck.
Hi Matt Tony and gang your the best video and entertainment going love your commentary and laughs keep up excellent work well done on fixing a lovely car. đđđ
I know it's crazy attempting to repair this but not only does the car have a lot of sentimental value it is also going to make a great project for the channel. Always good to see Mat, Toney and Freddie working together, so much energy and optimism, it's given my day a real boost. Glad no one was hurt in the crash and no more slicks in the UK unless it's on a track.
You created an amazing video style, straight addicted. Love Matt cameraman and Dad, crew is always having fun and joking. This is what life is about, doing what you love and having fun. Love to see it, dont stop we need more!
Respect... good on you for giving it a go!

Proper stuff đ„
The prevailing feeling I get from watching Mat's videos is that I want to be part of this friend group. Building the cars is great, and the videos are fantastic... but they just seem to genuinely like being 'round each other. That's the secret sauce. Best channel on CZcams. Period.
I am in Oregon USA and we have the same type of weather and I run all seasons on my C6 Corvette. its so much better then slicks. they grip when it's cold don't have to wait for tire to heat up and they are great in the rain. I had some scary incidents when I had summer tires. especially when tires were cold.
I am very happy to see your videos, I am a car enthusiast from a very young age, and in general I really like to fix things and work with my hands so what you do is exactly my dream!
I have a 1970 Volkswagen Beetle that my great grandfather bought me, first hand never sold, I did basic repairs to it but I lack a lot of knowledge to make it into what it really should be
Hannahâs face when you said you were putting in a V12, definite dog house for that đ
I love you guys! You're having so much fun together. That's precious. Especially when having family and dad helping and supporting you all the time. Who cares about money when you enjoying all that?
I thought the GT3RS repair was insane. This is another level. Looking forward to it!
Good you are safe and well from that accident, my only criticism is as you took every part off this car you did not say it was an Armstrong, this is an Armstrong fluid like you have with Rashford LOL I agree with you that cars are your baby.
Hey Mat, I am a huge fan of your contents from Afghanistan. I always watch all new videos in your channel. I felt so sad that the unfortunate accident created some serious damage to your Lambo, but I am sure that you and your awesome team can repair everything.
Wish you and your team all the best !!!
I find the vibe on this channel so up lifting.
Seeing the genuine friendship between this bunch is great â€đ
fix it dude - will watch the rebuild !!! stuff the insurance
It's funny that I'm not into mechanics or fixing my own van really I just like watching the videos it's mad he can fix something in that much of a state .hook on this channel now .
Freddy and Matt are a great colab/duo. Both produce great content.
So glad you're good Mat, repairing is the right decision. I'm looking at at those tyres at 1.42 and it makes me think the same thing every time. Those aren't tyres for the road on a cold damp Leicestershire night, those semi-slicks belong on a warm track day where their immense grip can be built up to, nurtured and found. I'm going to love to see this car repaired but please, road tyres for the road.
Agreed. One thing I learnt from this video was how little Matt knows about tyres. Were those slicks even in their temperature window? "summer" tyres and slicks lose grip as temperature drops. Typically around 4â° C you'll begin to be better off with "winter" tyres..
Amazing as always. Can't believe where you'd begin but love the concise commentary explaining everything. Hannah didn't look impressed when you said about a V12..âŠ. Kevin looking great as ever. Regards and awaiting wraith vids soon. The wraith ones are imho my favourite. Deffo getting some tickets.
Well done mate, I hope it goes all smoothly for you. Keep your chin up!
Man, Iâm so glad that youâre repairing that car and not giving up on it. It shows true character on your part.
Hello, I just wanna say you are my favourite car youtuber, I watched Tavarishes' P1 rebuild for like a week (I never watched it) and I felt a bit empty without your spirit in the video â€
Thankyou mat just used your car vertical discount code on a car Iâve seen at a dealers. Good job I did because there is outstanding finance on it đ
Anything is repairable given time and money... Is it worth it? is another question entirely. My own experience of building and repairing stuff is that there is always more than appears first off, often a lot more! Doing well on this one, hats off to you all.
The Stradman got that yellow parts car! Call him for that gallardo
If you watch both of these people your a top G car enthusiast
Strad's Gallardo is a first gen spyder (2003-2008)... Matt's is the modernized LP560 (2008-2013). There are big differences body panel wise.
@@classictoexotic Underneath they may be not so different frame wise though, he could maybe talk to stradman about buying some of the the structural parts off of him that he doesn't need to repair his orange car. Thats if their timings line up, because I cant see strad getting to the point where he can take off every single part that yellow gallardo to get to the subframes that quite literally the whole front and rear end are attached to . And then take them off, ship them, etc. Considering how fast paced Matt is with his rebuilds. But it could make for an interesting crossover between two channels cant lie.
đ€Łđ€ŁHannah's face when you're trying to convince her to stick the Aventador lump in it. It was a picture - like tell Matt he's a plum without telling him he's a plum!
Gutted for Matt though must have felt grim when it let go..
6:39 it's a blackboard :D Nice work! I'm always looking forward to a new upload!
I love Camera Matt's view on the exhaust manifold and frame damage - 'if that's like that and that's like that it's pretty certain that that shouldn't be like that' :D
Bro make sure you always get some quality Michelin or Continental tires. Tires and brakes, two of the most underrated parts on a car
Driver skill is also a key part
@@apb3251 yes but he's not driving on a circuit. Why put semi slicks on a car like that đSafety first
@@xTOF_BEespecially being in England where itâs raining most of the time no idea why anyone would bother putting semi slicks on a car thatâs street driven 99.999999% of the time just asking for trouble doing that
@@charlie1832 Snow tires (not the ones with spikes, the normal ones) are the best for rain, they slash the rain to the sides like butter. I had them on my car because I used do a lot of skiing and found this out from pure experience.
amazing how Mat now releases a video and in less thsn 10 minutes its got 25,000 plus views....i just love it
Seeing the chassis guys coming in all I thought was oooo laser aligned jig and hopefully some laser welding. Hope you get to film while they work their magic
im looking forward for this build more then then the rolls tbh cant wait for the next vid.
No detective đ”ïžââïž Armstrong needed this time.. good luck you can do it đ
I so love seeing Matt and Freddy working together. Freddy is one of the most optimistic person I have seen when looking at a crumbled up cars. This is what keeps me coming back.
My favourite point is 12.10 where Matt tryâs to compare his car with a child and Tony gives a barely perceptible shake of his headâŠâŠbasically heâs thinking, âwhat the heck you banging on about ladââŠâŠ.as a dad of three kids I love the fact Tony will support his lad no matter whatâŠ..a true example of what it means to be a father and a manâŠâŠMatt you have been lucky enough to have grown up with a real role model in your life, make sure you tell him how much you love and appreciate him every day đ
For someone who been in a kinda of a big crash, he doesn't look traumatized at all. What a Chad
It wasnât a big crash
Hannah is the one who was traumatized
Are you new around here? Mat isn't the personality type to get hung up on bad things.
Big crash?!? Mat grabs his BMX and says âhold my beer!â đș
He's built different
Youâre not supposed to weld automotive frames. In Canada, mechanics and auto body specialists are not allowed to weld frames since heat can cause the material to change in composition, making it much more brittle.
Nothing you can't systematically deal w w heat treatment
Heâs not in Canada tho heâs in the UK đ
Thereâs not much you can do in Canada under the dictatorship of Justin Trudeau!
As a german i can tell, that lambo would never get a new registration here.
Thatâs waaaaay over the top. I know. Because, I fabricated pre production prototype cars for, Land Rover/Range Rover, Rover, MG, Ford, jaguar, Rolls Royce/Bentley, Aston. Martin, Leyland DAF. I worked for Airflow Streamlines in the 1990âs. Prototype division. We built rally cars also.
That is soooo much work. You guys just keep persevering, respect.
The yfood birthday was hilarious đ
Much love for you guys â€ïžthank you for entertaining us!
Crazy how strict UK law is. In the US, if your car is totaled, the insurance usually let's you buy it back with a salvage title. After repairing, the state police does an inspection and issues a rebuilt title for the vehicle.
Insurance companies do let you have the option of buying a vehicle back and once it's rebuilt it should undergo a bit more of a stricter version of the MOT ( ministry of transport ) test to make sure it meets road safety standards.
I hope that is the reply you wanted
Not even. My car was totaled and I bought it back. I didnât even have to give them my title. The dmv doesnât know it was damaged. I can get it figured and the status of the title wonât be salvage
pretty similar here - not sure how insurer would view a huge loss induced by those tyres though....
@@johnnychimpo7539 I've done the same too
@@robcrowe5351 yea it depends on the state. They arenât on top of stuff so it just slides through
That a lot of damage for a "30 km/h" crash
Our speed is done I'm mph
yep.. brits use mph
Think its the aluminum ha, kinda can crush sorta deal... the things we do for less weight :/
I was thinking the same. Would have been dumb to flat out tell the viewers the real speed.
You think đ€ đ?
Is it feasible to have a doner huracan to replace parts like the chassis, suspension, steering? I enjoy your channel. Itâs educational & entertaining with these supercars you restore to like new !
You and strad also working on the same cars is amazing! You can get parts from his!
Seriously so glad to see you rebuilding it!
Love your content!!!!!
Watching from South Africa đżđŠ
Never seen it done but I think u should do the entire engine bay chrome. I know that sounds crazy. But think about how different and clean 5hat could make the engine bay.
So... I live in a desert, it doesn't rain much, but when it does, it floods. I only put slicks on a car when going directly onto a track. My everyday tires are Eagle F1's, which are all weather tires.
3:07 The â1x new carâ on the boardđ
Other people after crashing their car - this is gonna bankrupt me
Mat after crashing his car - this is gonna make a lot of money to me

I would genuinely move to Europe to have a chance to work with people like this. They seem so genuine and I couldnât think of a better way to spend my time then working with cars with people that have just as much enjoyment as each other.
Iâve got a few classic aircooled Volkswagens in my garage and a lot going on in my life. These cars need to be restored and your videos give me the motivation to get out in my garage and work on them. Also would love to see you build something a bit more classicâŠ. Aircooled⊠đ

A lot of damage for 50 mph Matt , sure it wasnât 150 mph đ± That tyre at the beginning looked bald ,worn.
He addresses that they were slicks
@@jugo1944 , Thanks , slicks , thatâs what I thought but slicks on a wet normal road , invalid insurance ??
@@jeanwood6392 insurance would've been invalidated but modern cars are designed with a certain breaking point on all 4 corners as well as the crumple zones to protect the driver/passenger. Insane how easily you can break some parts, a bottom arm on my RS6 snapped hitting a pothole at roughly 40mph
Hi Mat, great vids as usual from the team. When I was watch the last video on the Mansory RR, you showed us all how much the prices were for Mansory parts. Is the any chance of guiding me to where I can get the Mansory parts for a 2023 Bentayga as I am thinking of looking at the Wide body set-up. Many thanks from the UK

im so happy you got out without injuries
Matt why you come fast!! I feel your pain on this one. Reminds me when I crashed my first car I'm first baby how I felt with no way to pay for the damage luckily like you I have an amazing father who came to help. Love your videos keep her lit đ„đ„
