Thanks - www.v-engineering.co.uk/ for setting up the suspension and wing.

Hey guys ive noticed a mistake in editing 😅 Late nights editing take a toll on you... I guess thats what makes CZcams CZcams though! We all human 🤟
Mat the car broke down cuz them wheels are acc Shit
W video tho. 🎉
it just goes to show you are the real deal Mat. Keep up the amazing work and never change. Shout out to Tony from another old guy who loves working on anything with his kids, though mine are girls. :)
all done it in editing. Keep the content coming!
Encouraged me to restart on my MGB GT
All good, I thought my TV went mad for a bit 😅. Congrats on the build, came out insane! Hope you don't have to take the engine apart.
10:30 I started checking all my other tabs to see where else was playing a video lol. Great video Mat and team! Love this Mclaren!
just did the same!!
ahahha immediately had the same reaction =))
LMAOoooooooo
Same😂
lol, same
Your dad is a sport Mat. You so lucky to have a dad like him. Being the guide and helping hand to build son's dreams and ambitions. Always by your side.
I love the way the white exhaust smoke matches the wheels, its like a red arrows display 😂😂 you really know how to harm yourselves. Brilliant filming, fantastic content, great personalities, awesome cars, whats not to like? Missing Hannah, shes not around much these days so its great when she pops in. Your smiles give us smiles, awesome, just awesome, thank you ❤❤
You love really easy we noticed regularly
First time?
crazy 💀
Think mat needs some blown engine advice tavarish!
What happened to your McLaren, can't wait.
He might need some McLaren advice 😂
Do you like the wheels? Not sure about them myself ha ha
Stunning colour, hate the wheels. As you said, it's your choice and taste. It's been a brilliant rebuild. Hope it's just a dodgy sensor or a simple fix on the engine 👏👏
Love the color as well, but between the carbon kit and the wheels it looks like a car someone would build in GTA Online imo
those wheels are horrific.
Would love for the bonnet to be in color, not carbon. And yeah, wheels no bueno.
It's easy to see why you're the fastest growing youtuber. You guys are so genuine and lovable. Hoping that thing doesn't need an engine rebuild, but I'll be staying tuned either way!
Fastest growing CZcamsr?? Says who? Don't get me wrong ...I love the channel...but MA is not even in the top 20.
When I first saw the wheels sitting at the shop I was thinking ohhh boy, what a mistake.. But once mounted, totally changed my mind. Somehow they work? Truly unique setup. I dig it!
Love the way your dad said “our subscribers” when he was saying about bending the door hinge. He’s right we are all here for you mat but it really wouldn’t be the same without your old man! Said it before and I’ll say it again. I love the relationship you’ve got with your dad, I haven’t got that and it’s nice to know there is some proper blokes doing the proper dads proud.
I agree, i think Tony's having the time of his life, always got a smile on his face, or laughing at the latest mishap. He was definitely right saying 'our subscribers'
My dad likes cars, I do too. But we never had a good relationship sadly. When I see this I wish I had a bond with my dad like mat does
Couldn’t agree more! Love Tony
@@SweatyyPancakesit’s never too late till it is too late trust me 👍
I couldn’t agree more. What a Person Tony is.
Thanks for never using the CZcams premiere feature. We all hate it.
What is the CZcams premium feature?
Top tier comment
The “Mat Armstrong uploaded a new video” and its a 32h premiere kills my enjoyment of the channel
@@Carthusbeing able to exchange with mat while the video is playing
Do not forget the no add policy he handles on his videos, i can just watch the video without the bullshit add 5 min wait per video non skipable, his own add’s in vid dont annoying me a bit
Holy sh**!!!!!!!!!!
Mat, firstly thank you! I've never seen such feature length videos on car repairs on youtube before! This makes your videos so watchable!
That car, can't even put into words how fantastic a job you've made of it. The colour/carbon complements/wheels just looks badass!!! I'm literally staring at the screen, jaw on the floor!!!
Amazing!!! Well done!!!!
How many nuts n bolts were residual in a coffee jar by the end? lol
Those rims just killed the whole build, which was flawless. Stock ones looked 1000x better
First of all it's wheels. Second, they look really good. Stradman's carbon aventador duke dynamics build has the exact same wheels from rohanna. They look insane
I think it looks kinda Tron. Which goes with the colour scheme more generally.
Not sure about the wheels, but an amazing achievement. A credit to you all.
yeah take the white circle off and its perfect
its unique, it makes this car diff from others
Wheels are terrible if only the white circle was slightly slimmer which could’ve been it’s saving Grace
Paint the white bits same as car or carbon 👌
Agree same as car much better then its a full on Tron car@@dougieirvine3980
Bold choice with the rims. Love the Color although the wings need some paint with carbon showing on the air aero ducts only.
I was thinking the same but for the hood to break all of the carbon in the front
Yeah personal choice I guess. I quite like the colour, except too much black, although I would definitely change those wheels if this was my car, but if he is keeping this for himself I understand.
truly terrible 🥲
Bro respect for the the love you have with your dad ,Stay humble and stay blessed!!!
Your dad is so cool n always smiling 😊big respect to you and your team big hugs from Mauritius Island u guys should visit Mauritius once a day 😊
having Tony is the blessing. even just watching him for a few minutes makes my days a whole lot better.
My name is also Tony. My son 42yrs old (Vincent) passed away during Covid. When I see Matt and his Dad 😅😮working together it brings an inner peace and happiness. Thank you God, Thank you Jesus, Matt, Tony and the whole gang. 🔥 had me frown and the Matt says “no problems with it made me laugh.
@@tonyabrego1wow thats depressing… i can only tell you how much i apologies for your lost. My son is about to turn 12 and i cant figure out the way you must feel…… all i can say is i will give him a huge hug coming back home and i wish you the best of luck finding the strenght to keep goiing forward. Bless you sir.
one thing I especially love about this channel is the positive vibe of the whole team. @@tonyabrego1
Great video Mat. As always.
1.The colour is beautiful
2. Don't like the carbon fenders. Should keep them standard or paint them and leave the vents with carbon exposed.
3. The wheels don't compliment the aggressive style. They look too small. A super car looks much more aggressive with bigger rims.
Just my honest opinion mate.
You are still a legend none the less. Thank you for such an amazing chanel.
He respectfully said it his preference because he is gonna keep it for himself so I don't see the reason why should u need to voice out it but hey we all need to feel entitled to something.
@@nattydora
1. Because its a public forumn.
2. Because he's right.
@@nattydorarelax bro. Hes allowed to voice his opinion. Its a valid one too. Just let him be. Or are you entitled to making someone feel lesser?
@@nattydoradang bro dude laid out his opinion and said it’s only his. Why you on him like that?
I was going to say some nice silver rims would really compliment the paint and make the wheels pop out, but it is starting to grow me the more I look at the car.
Hands down my favourite channel to watch. Consistency and Quality is spot on!
The mclaren 765lt in Curacao blue looks so fresh! Definitely my “dream” supercar. You made this 720s so CLEAN!
The paint color grew on me quickly then the extra touches...🔥
But then he ruined this car with the wheels
hopefully comes with apple car play full updated 🤣
@@H1-NMR I like the wheels. I probably prefer the originals better, but still think they look good
It looks like an orca
The wheels aren't bad at all, maybe carbon instead of the white but it's a dope wheel
In less than 5 years this man has gone from fixing cheap cars to building and modifying supercars! That’s unreal mad respect Mat love the videos❤❤❤❤
P.s please buy a Nissan GTR already 😂
here and waiting for it
The power of yt is mad, all because of us he can do it! Thanks matt
@@iNetworkx and he can upgrade it to his liking as usual
Thanks man!
@@1mawesomel1kethathow do you become a sell out from buying a certain. Car 😂 strange
I absolutely love how happy you both are in the videos
I'm a big fan of your channel @MatArmstrong and usually prefer the lower end of the market like the Golf R etc but this build has been IMMENSE. Love it!
You should do the outer lip of the wheel rim in the body colour.
And also a body coloured strip across the wings from the front bumper to the doors.
My thoughts exactly on the wheel lip
I feel there's too many colours, mint green, black, carbon fibre, and white!
disagree its perfect as is
I was thinking the same thing on the wheel trims, definitely, looks absolutely awesome though, bloody good job!
That would be Sick! I was thinking "White" trim pieces but I'll admit I'm going to have to agree with you color matched pieces would really look good!
Mat you are very lucky to have your Dad working with you like this. Good to see you guys having so much fun!
Yeah 17:10 dad's feedback cracked me up. Proper comedy duo.
LOL yeah, you can see where Mat got his humor from.@@misconstrudel
Agreed. Not everyone has a relationship that allows you to work together like this.
Besides you giving your dad that awesome Ferrari, this McLaren build has been my favorite to watch so far. Matt Armstrong, you're an amazing man along with your dad and your entire crew. Keep up the great videos my friend!
That's is one hell of a good looking McLaren I have to say. I absolutely love everything about it, you've smashed this build out of the park!
I think the white rings on the wheels should be mint or carbon but it looks so aggressive 👌 what a car what a job done!
mint would be too much and boring!! it‘s simply perfect imo
@@Itsme-mp8ru it is lush and love the wheels but not sure on the white but not my car anyway
Definitely, if you must have the rings then make them match something. That said, the rings I don't like, but left as-is just ruins the look.
I'm not sure what they could be matched to, but currently they kinda look like whitewalls
@@Viskoze yeah that’s what they remind me of and white walls are usually on older classics this is an absolute beast it needs to be on aggressive or stealthy wheels. But again everyone has there own tastes and it’s not my car 😂
32:19 Nope on the wheels for me... maybe better with carbon surrounds then the white? Wish the fenders were painted body colour, and carbon wrap the roof and all other black bits. It's looking a little too pieced together currently.
Agree on the wheels,needs to be painted in a car colour or replaced with carbon ,roof parts would look better in carbon wrap aswell😁
What color is your McLaren
Nope on dudes in the comments with no McLaren telling mat what to do with his McLaren
@@CenkWasTaken purple and piss yellow
I agree. You should never have more than 2 colors on a car or in a room.
Just started watching your videos and subscribed. Love the hell out of your channel. This build was too cool. Waiting to see what comes.
Matt I been watching ur channel for a while
Love it
Best thing on CZcams
I love cars
And love normal people making it
No ego
No giving it the large
No rubbing it in peoples faces
Ur pure class bruv
I watched ur history house and car and work and jobs video today
Very inspiring
Complete legend u are
Thanks for the great videos and I will continue to watch
The car caught its own reflection and seen the wheels and decided to kill itself! Sweet build, mate. I think it would look a million times better without the white parts on the rims, but as long as you love it, that's all that really matters!
Yeap, white rings on the rims are not there. I liked it better with stock ones..
Stock rims looked sick I don’t know about the white rings
Must agree. The white cap looks like wheel caps on a hyper car😂. The rest of the car is super sick.
That was the nicest way to say it, I think.
They look like old school white walls.
I love the colour and the CT kit, my only thoughts around the wheels is that because of the outer surround, it almost makes them look too small for the car. I hope whatever is wrong with the engine is a simple fix as after all this work to have a knackered engine would be heartbreaking. Great video as always and I look forward to the next update👍🇬🇧
You know what? I didn’t really have an opinion when i saw it on insta, but seeing the actual color up close and the carbon detailing and vents etc, it absolutely kicks ass. The wheel details are off chops too. Great job!!
Been my favorite CZcamsr for so long. Gotta respect the hard work he puts in!
I love when Mat's dad says "..all OUR subscribers.." truly a corner stone of these builds!
@Tony Armstrong Sir, you’ve raised a fine son! You two make me wish I had the chance to be that close with my son. I lost him when he was just 19 and seeing the two of you together makes me miss him even more. You have an infectious, positive attitude and a smile that makes this old man smile and laugh with you. Cheers!
Damn man, sorry for your loss, brother.
Don’t worry about it pal, you can make another son
@@abidray6508
Tell us you dont have kids without telling us...
God Bless you for saying what we're all thinking about the strong bond between Mat and Tony. We love them both and, we can well understand your having exactly the same bond with your departed son. May you continue to enjoy Mat's videos and being a small but important part of the whole Mat Armstrong YT Family.
Warmest Regards - David from Melbourne, Australia
🥸👌🍷🍷❤️❤️🦘
That's a really shitty thing to say. @@abidray6508
Love the work love the all time positivity ! Keep up the great work absolutely loving it
In the Last Century we were using that colour combination in some of the office fit outs. It looks wicked on the McClaren, and the wheels seal the deal. Hope you get the engine issue ironed out. 👍🖖
Honestly I'd watch anything mat and his dad do. Even if they'd just repair junk cars yall are just the right duo and quite enjoyable. Hats off to you mat and pops.
Mat is 53 years old, his “dad” looks 58. There is NO way that is his dad. HIS DAD SHOULD BE MY AGE..
@@GardenGuy1943where did you get that he was 53? He’s like 30
@@GardenGuy1943 Mat's 30 years old. I'm 35 and my dad's a few years older than Mat's pops. Google is a wonderful tool for whatever questions pop in your mind. Even the stupidest or complex questions.
Haha Mat talking over himself mid-video is actually hilarious. Need this 720 next to DDE's 720 once it's done!
Most people would envy the cars that you’re building but for me it’s the smile your dad has and the support he gives with parts in hand. 10/10 dad
Lmfao My dad left for a pack of smokes while ago just left me with his passion of cars would be nice to have help like that
My first Mat Armstrong Video since watching you on Road to Success.
Off to a good start I'd say 👌🏼
My day isn't complete without a Mat Armstrong video.
Me too 😢
Waited so long for this video ❤
Same here especially for the mclaren
Yes we want a GTR build please Mat
18:00 In Germany it's called "Motorhaube", simply meaning engine hood/cover
Was sagt er denn? Deckel? 😅
Job Deckel 😂
I think painting just the wheel arches on the front wings would tie everything together.
Thank you for taking the time to post.
Mat what an astonishing build, great job, it looks awesome!
Your dad is living his best life man. Good on you bro. What a man.
This dude is a legend for rebuilding literal supercars! Even classed as not repairable this dude is just amazing! I will watch you forever Mat!
9:55 had me rolling how your dad laughed when the cameraman flinched LOL
wonderful, my dear brother, you are truly a master craftsman that I appreciate. I'm working the same as you but for hyundai car company.
Your dad's laugh is infectious, the man is a legend. You guys take tragic cars and make magic bro.
You say that like he a problem lmao
Yer and a great smile bless him. He is such a addition to the channel.
@@GhostUnderTheLight-bi1ek what lmao
@alexanderpopik6780 I mean when did infections be a good thing it's always bad and it sounds bad
Finally someone that painted a supercar in a bright color. FFs a supercar is an event, a toy, a attention grabber. Why super cars come in dark colors is like a funeral. Great color Mat!
sometimes dark colors look good, i think it depends on the car tbh, like I would never go for a subdued color on a lambo cause thats antithetical to what theyre for, but a ferrari in a dark blue would be awesome
🤨 The vast majority of supercars are painted in bright colours.
because everyone loves dark colours
you probably didnt see the insane mclaren thats owned by alex choi
It's a matter of taste my man. I was also all about bright, in your face colors but as my age grows, I find myself owning murdered out cars. Every person is different.
Bro I’ve watched so many of these kind of videos and yours are the best! Never give up on your future man! Also I LOVE the color you went with!
This ended up looking incredible! i LOVE them wheels. really makes the mint pop
Outside part of the rims need to be mint like they car otherwise it looks like you have undersized wheels on it.. But epic build Matt and love the way your dad is so involved something I could only dream off..
Car came out amazing , In my opinion the white portion on the wheels should match the body color that would look insane!
They look like white wall tyres
Hopefully Mat will edit a side profile picture to see what many like minded folk are praying he will do. What an amazing looking car though huh!
Epic rebuild and the teamwork and laugh you have is so inspiring 💙🙏🏻👍🏻💪🏻
Amazing . Love your teams work 💪
18:03 "Deckel" is not the german word for hood the actuall word would be "Motorhaube". :) Deckel just means lid.
In this case i would use "Kofferraumdeckel" =)
also used for beer mats 'bierdeckel' :) noch ein bitte! :)
Hi Matt and team. Just wanted to say thank you so much for today’s video. It gave me an escape for 30 mins from a truly horrific day. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
Same here. Hope everything is better now.
Hope your future days are better🙌🏽🫱🏽🫲🏾
ahh I know that feeling well! totally agree it is a nice time-out from reality!
i hope everyone is doing fine, i need ur help guys, i recently lost my job and i am still on job hunt and i dont have anymore funds left for my household and on top of that my sister's tuition fee is due i tried to do everything to pay the fee and still $5k is left , so guys i need ur help , a little help will help me a lot, i promise once i get a job i'll pay you back. please help me.
Well done Mat and team. So cool to see this build
That car looks brighter than my future.
Excellent work by all, tis an absolute joy watching your content. Keep up the excellent work.
In Germany we don't call the hood "Deckel", rather we call it Motorhaube, which roughly translates to engine hood, since a lot of German words are really descriptive. Deckel ist like for jars and buckets.
Danach habe ich gesucht. 😌
Lid is Deckel😅 but you re very right… I was wondering what did he just say???
He said it cause Porsche wrote it on their hood from factory
aber es ist ja auch kein Motor drunter
You are wrong, the engine is in the back, so the Motorhaube is there and the Kofferraumdeckel is in the front. Grüße
Not a fan of the color or wheels but love you and your Dad's joy at doing something you love. Love the car as well the carbon fiber was absolutely perfectly placed.
dope! love the color - great job matt - you are amazing and you're dad is so funny! peace be with you and greetings from southern California.
thats awesome i'm learning to build cars now wish me luck Matt thanks to you i go for it
DID I JUST HEAR DUAL AUDIO AT 10:30?!
BUT MAN LOVE THE CAR!!
Paint the front fenders but leave the louvers carbon!!! From the side its look more solid jf it was all blue love it keep up the sold work!!
Great build mate! Congratz!🎉👏
In Germany we dont say Deckel its Motorhaube.
Den Kommentar habe ich gesucht.
10:30 is actually a PERFECT example of Mat's extremely developed ability to do a lot of things at once, he's actually speaking like this often; however his Dad is the only one that understands. It's a shame we're simply not advanced enough to understand their efficient communication method. Respect 😎
Another fantastic build, not a fan of the wheels but each to their own. Keep it up 👍🏼
This looks unreal Mat!! Love the colour and wheels, that kit is a beast!
May God bless you! Thats really fun work to rebuild cars.
Love the colour, not a fan of the wheels but they're definitely unique. Brilliant video as always.
Color is amazing and minty fresh! Carbon kit too. Wheels... not so much.
totally agree what's with the EV wheels...
I agree.. The white bits on the whes make the wheels look smaller
Paint the white in the wheels mint, job done
I love the wheels, they make it look special
Wheels ruin it. Look like old fashioned plastic hub caps!
INCREDIBLE ,DETERMINATION,ABILITY AND SELF BELIEF ...SO REFRESHING . (EX PAT LIVING IN BRAZIL) ENJOYING ALL YOUR VIDEOS ...THANKS AND WELL DONE
Unreal content an always humble, your a credit to humanity 👏
Love this Channel! Mat seems so down to Earth and humble! He could find EVERY reason to be arrogant but is the complete opposite! He seems like an average friend that you could just hang out and do car stuff with. Don't change and keep going with the Awesome builds!
Anyone else thought ‘horrible colour’, then ‘horrible wheels’ but then realised when it all came together that is actually really really nice! The fella is a genius. Hope the engine/fire isn’t all that bad.
Same
I hate the wheels ngl but hey if hes happy
Hi matt,
The car is sick. Love the colour.
I think it would look perfect with the front fenders painted but keep in the air ducts the carbon exposed. Than it perfectly flows like in the rear
Oh my god,
I loved it, infact i have been following your
Whole journey with this McLaren, but i feel amazing today seeing it running.
Just at the end issue with engine smoking again
But i know you got it. Right 👍
as a German i have to tell you that "Deckel" means lid as in the lid of the pickel jar and not the boned. The right word would be "Motorhaube" (direct translation engen lid). But as the Mclaren dosent have the engine in the front we would call it the "Kofferraumklappe" (Trunklid). hope this will better your german skills and love your Videos. keep up the work.
The car look so good. The only thing I would change is the grey bits around the wheels to be papaya spark orange to fit with the interior and create extra spark
Excellent presentation and lovely energy presentation of your video. Weldone.
Awesome restoration Mat! Keep up these amazing videos
Beautiful paint cor choice and a fantastic build!
I probably would've chosen to paint the front wing, but leave the carbon fiber exposed on the wing vents.
Great job, guys!
Hello from Belgium,
I love your channel because you don't often see cars like this taken apart like that. Your dad is so cool, you're very lucky. Best wishes
Stock wheels looked so much better but nonetheless great job with the build. Love the CT carbon bits
You both are so lucky to have each other. I have watched so many of your vlogs. It's obvious to me that you both have the same hearts. Very loving and giving. Also, you work well together as a team. Your girlfriend loves you and appreciates you. Never discourage her from showing you affection. Also, never stop showing her love and respect. You guys will have an awesome life. God bless both of you. Never let anyone come between you both. Jealous people will always try to come between you. Misery loves. Company.
I just love the colour you chose for the car and the body kit looks amazing 😮. Maybe paint the front fenders and hood with some carbon pieces exposed its a little to mutch carbon now 😁.
Much respect Matt..love how you n dad work together... No matter what happens you can expect a laugh n huge smile from dad... He just has such a bright happy Ora... Thank you for great content n doing things no one else can do
Excellent work guys looks amazing and minty fresh
Awesome job guys the car looks incredible.
Looks great!! I think you should paint the front fenders body color and leave the louvres carbon and paint the white on the wheels body color also. Great job. You practically built a McLaren like the factory does.
why pay for exposed carbon if you are going to paint it?
I think the wheels in the body colour would look allot better indeed
@@simracingchannel7691hell nah
You deserve all your success mate. You worked damn hard to get there.
Love the wheels....gives something personal and with the color of the car .....superb .... have fun with it
A monumental amount of work! Well done! 👌🏻
