There are a ton of CZcamsrs who would’ve spent the next two years repairing this car 10 minutes at a time, just for the views. But not you, just honest and right to the point. This channel is automotive perfection.
I don't think it's dishonest to make short update videos. It's just a different format. I'm like you probably are--I prefer these episodes but there's nothing wrong with doing it a different way, you and I might not watch but others will.
Lol imagine what regular CZcamsrs would do on project Chicago, that would've been at least 50 episodes. "Engine runs!" "Getting the car road worthy!" "First drive went well"(drive around the block) "I broke the car!" "What actually went wrong?" "Future plan on B7?"
@@YusssoM yikes, that's disgusting lol
Couldn't agree more. Best car channel... * Que Clarksons voice * in the world!
It's not for me, but imho if they want to do it 10 minutes at a time over 2 years, that's fine. What really pisses me off is these channels who don't do ANYTHING and pretend to fix things and farm that for clickbait views. (Just search for airplane restoration and you'll see what I mean)
The Adam Sandler cameo was *VERY* cool. Didn't realize he was such a huge BMW fan.
Never before has a channel so thoroughly enthralled me. I still remember the first of your videos that I watched, the "V12 E38 First start in 5 years". Ever since then I've watched every single video, every second of them. Your content is absolutely phenomenal, and there's no one else that can get me to sit down and watch one video for as long as your videos are. No other channel has made me wish I could just throw money at you so you could make more videos!
I can't stress enough how this channel deserves so much more recognition. This is the best car channel on CZcams hands down!. Keep up the amazing work. I can't wait to see what's to come, especially on the E92 M3.
Now this is a happy ending! i would say the E30 is a keeper. Also so cool that Jason visited you, hope we will see some content with him here on the channel.
The nicest the most fresh E30 in existence, a show-stopper car, if not museum piece definitely collector edition.. ! ❤🤩🥰💯Curious the people faces if you take it to Nurgburgring or any car meetings.. (if he does that should post it so we see too).. Full respect to guys of body shop they did fenomenal job & Hat-off Sreten more similar stuff to rest of your BMW's.. !!!
Well I’m speechless. This car looks absolutely new, like a time capsule. I’m mean she’s perfect ! Nothing else to do. I’d even be afraid to drive it. Much much congrats Sreten, what you did with this car is unbelievable. This is definitely a keeper, I’m pretty sure Michel is gonna love it.
hi Sreten. i just watched all 7 episodes of project Marbais, i`m emotional right now man. FANTASTIC job!!
i Have a 1984 323 e30 that is crying out for rescue, juices are flowing, thanks. Andre, South-Africa.
Just comenting to let you know that i'm living an hard time in my life and your videos are like an injection of joy and satisfaction.
I wish i could give you more than 1 like per video, because you really deserve it with your content.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Cheers from Portugal!
Used to be like that for me as well months ago, hope u get out of it soon🙏🏻
Feel u bruh
Happened with me too exactly a year ago. Hope you’d recover soon Brugh. Prayers and well wishes to you
Wishing you all the best my friend .
The proof that an awesome youtuber gathers the best people around!
Thanks guys for your kind words.
All the best for you too!
I cannot explain how my mood switches so quickly when I see the notification of Sreten uploading a video
"Cooooooming up?" Happiness.
Anytime I see a CZcams notification from you, I get a smile on my face and start thinking about the next time I can clear 30-60 minutes from my schedule to sit down and watch your newest adventure.
Three pedals. No radio. No cup holders. Just driving. Richtig!
I had an E39 520i pre-facelift. People said it is slow, but I always replied exactly how you described it;
“Yes, it is slow. But it loves to rev 😎”
Amazing work! The production level is TV quality, ever episode is almost an hour long without commercial
Finally, the true ending
Love the E30 , have owned 3 of them , a 325sport w Mtech I body kit and second 325sport w Mtech II body kit in England , then moved to the USA with my job and was disappointed that the 325sport was never sold in the USA and got a 325is and drove it until 414000miles with original engine and then sold it . Watching these videos brings me back to these great 80s cars.
Jason Cammisa with Sreten? My life is now complete.
Thank you, Sreten! (and Jason)
Your awesome skills are being noticed quite well and quite well deserved!
I would love to see Jason just casually dropping by the shop more to chat about these classic BMWs. He's an awesome car journalist with a real love for all cars, but a particular soft spot for old BMWs, so Sreten's shop really should be a perfect fit for him.
The biggest scraps go from Germany to Poland and after a couple of weeks they look better than they did from the factory. When they cross the Oder also the odometer magically shows less mileage. A remarkable rejuvenating river.
😁👍
Maybe rejuvenating for cars... not for the fish swimming in it lately 🙄
Better than a dead classic. Although I prefer the mileage stay original.
The E30 was THE car that defined the 1980’s for me and this one perfectly captures that feeling. Well done Sreten, well done. You earned that beer.
After a terrible day in the UK yesterday, this is exactly what I needed to see tonight. Such an graceful, elegant, dare I say majestic car. Great job from everyone involved.
Thank you Sreten. 🙏
The Polish dudes did a phenomenal job putting that car back together. You have what is probably one of the finest E30s around. I don’t see them anywhere near that condition, it’s rare enough now to see one at all. Well done and enjoyed watching all the work.
Great to see Marbais back on the road, and it looks as though it never hit that tree in the first place. An Icon like the E30 deserves to be preserved to remind people of what BMW used to be, and you have done an amazing job, even if you did have a small mishap.
Just like everything else you do, you even crashed the car perfectly! 😝All kidding aside, it looks amazing! Pretty cool to see Jason in your garage, big fan of him as well!
My God a body shop like that deserves all the success in the world. These really were one of the most perfect car designs visually. Imagine if BMW had the balls to make a new retro 3 series.
That montage with the 80's music was awesome!!
Two of my favorite legends, you and Jason, like damn that video and your work is really hitting another legendary level.
This E30 is an absolute master piece !!
It’s a keeper for Sure !!
The E9 has left the chat.
It’s perfect, seeing it finished brings me joy. Jason is an amazing auto journalist, I don’t understand why he’s not more mainstream, I can’t wait to see his video too
This video is proof that dreams do come true. I’m selling my bike tomorrow and start the hunt for my dream car!
Such a beautiful car, from an era when BMWs were indeed special. Loved this whole series.
What a gem! And that intake and exhaust note from the sweet little 6-cyl… Automotive heaven…
sounds like a coffee can full of rocks
The face of this E30 is always my favorite BMW... so clean and simple..
Man, the body lines are PERFECT!
The amount of work and heart poured into this car is incredible. Glad to see that you have done the car right. And do not worry, accidents happen, but now you might claim that you are a better driver because of it. Really love the videos, cannot wait to see your other projects.
Its beautiful. BMW should sponsor you for keeping these legends on the road. This car is a huge part of BMWs history.
you have nicer cars, you have sportier cars, you have pricier cars, you have more comfortable cars... but this is your most special car. it has no peer. it authenticates you more than any other vehicle you own. it is a keeper. I know your name is E39, but the E30 is the OG
A timeless Beema. Love the look. Back when BMW made much simpler machines :-)
I took my driving license in a E30 back in -85. Still remember the beautiful song from that engine. Stunning car!
The accident was heart breaking, I'm happy to see the car is back to you again. And please put those pictures somewhere to download, They are perfect wallpapers.
No wonder people fell over backwards for these back in the day, hell, watching all the B-roll at 38:07 I want to go to the dealership and buy one myself today, almost 40y later.
Amazing E30!! Driving cars from that era was something else… I grew up on them. 😊 But handling is of course less predictable than today’s BMWs.
So, SO nice to see this car so beautifully finished. Congratulations Sreten - amazing work by you, by Artur in Poland, and by everyone else who had a hand in repairing this awesome classic.
I love your channel. I watch every episode. Well done on saving this gem.
People who Share..Care! SRETEN lends his Masterpiece out for a Long ride. Best Buddy ever!
From an era when BMW designed and built great looking cars. A lovely and worthy build. If this car was right hand drive, I would buy it for my son for when he passes his driving test.
What an absolute beautiful job you did to that E30 - total perfection. You deserve a medal or at least a few more beers!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇬🇧
When you started the drive test I surprised myself : I was smiling like if it was me driving! Thx for the shared moments.
I love this car. My father had one, and it really is my childhood car. I hope one day I can have one.
She's back to her beautiful self and doesn't look out of place in this modern world. Great job 👍 👍 🏴
Lovely end result. Probably my favourite era of BMW, I remember looking at the 325i cars when I was a young boy and always wanted one. Glad it is back on the road again and staying on the road
Brings back a lot of memories of my E30 M-3. E30’s are wonderful cars. BMW got it right on that car.
Just finished the finale. Wow I’ve watched the e21 first and then the e30. I just became the owner of an 83 e21 and you have inspired me. After thinking about just going with bmw genuine parts, your use of OEM when available was reassuring. It will bring my cost down and at the end of the day my high mileage beauty will never be a show car but may be able to give me joy for years to come.
Amazing work! The production level is TV quality!!!
The sound of that exhaust is exactly as it was in the 80's! Well done.
No, it's not, the _original_ exhaust was the one that sounded exactly as it was in the 80s, this one is non-standard, that's why he fitted it...so that it didn't sound the same as the original.
@@nickturner2813 yep what a fool
Great to see the E30 come back Sreten! Looks like those guys did a great job fixing it up, you'd have no idea. So glad you got it back on the road.
When the Like button is just not big enough. A result so good that the previous bump can be forgotten and forgiven - even by you, Sreten. That is one beautiful car, no doubts. Congratulations!
Most satisfying ending to an episode yet. Jason Cammisa making a cameo and another car ticked off the completion list?
Outstanding.
Warms my heart to see this car restored. Top work from all involved and Jason's trip with it looks epic.
It's sods law that you spent all that time detailing the car, for it then to see the rain at the end there 🤣
but still the paint has been protected and the car is to be driven and enjoyed 👍
Definitely the most beautiful car you own. Stunning 😎
Perhaps this CZcams channel is the best of all automotive blogs. Approach, cleanliness, order! Excellent BMW E30, and a lot of work has been done! I like it!!!😊
Next on Unsolved Mysteries: "How did the USA escape getting such a beautiful Euro headlights and grille?" Fantastic job on this E30, Sreten! Thanks again for all you do in service to classic BMW's.
Oh my God, it looks incredible!!! Best E30 I've ever seen, by far!!
Ah man this makes me even more happy than after the previous "final video". Just seeing the car is back in outstanding shape and a happy Sreten also makes me happy. Also it is a nice extra bonus to hear that the car will actually be enjoyed and not just being a garage queen. I really believe that the previous owner will love the work and effort that has been put into the car. After all, everything that has been modified is reversible, so even the purists should be happy. Personally I absolutely LOVE it! Watching you restoring neglected old BMW:s is so satisfying. I own an e34 535i and an e28 518i (now m30b25) myself, restoring both of them. Both of them used to be neglected turds of corse. Keep up the good work! :) Greetings from Finland
I have to say... this is my favorite BMW of all time,EVER!!!
100% agree that part 6 was the sades episode on this channel! But it teaches us than even loving to much can HURT UR LOVE 😔. But thank god we have you that give the car much more love after that so we see it shining even brighter than ever 💫🌟
Car looks fab! We used to call them widow makers back in the 80s/90s. You'll never go wrong keeping a few hundred thousand tied up in E30's.
Can't tell you how great it makes me feel to see cars that I grew up loving, being put back on the road. Love your content - keep up the great work!!!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, just beautiful. What a car!
Something about the look of an e30 that just hasn’t been bettered since ,beautiful 😍
Just one word: Awesome!!!! You did a more than magnificent job on fixing it. I really love you enthusiasm. Also really enjoyed the pictures in the end
I'm so happy that you are satisfied with paimtjob. Must say that guys did amazing job. After paint matching in Germany this one looks legendary. Cheers!
A dry ice cleaning equipment to hit that engine bay and undercarriage and boy, and that car could be in a museum. Amazing job man!
its no coincidence that poland is europe's factory, you can buy, get made, anything in that country. they did an amazing job with the repair and especially the paintjob :-O wow
This has been a journey and a half, but the end result... damn, it is gorgeous, and we can tell how much it meant to you. Hell, you sounded quite emotional at some points during the video, and rightly so. This is a spectacular car, and it' sure to turn many heads in the future!
If I may say something _slightly_ heretical in this holy land of broken BMWs, though... as much as I love seeing all these awesome cars, that Mercedes W201 at 46:46 will always be a dream car of mine. It might be slow, old, whatever. Just the looks of it put such a smile on my face!
I must admit I thought the same when I saw the W201. Will likely always be a Mercedes guy at heart although, not too keen on the modern stuff - same can be said for BMW too though.
I can't take the thought of Senna driving it off my head whenever I see it. I usually despise 5-door cars but the W201 2.3 is really a jewel.
So happy to see this car back in shape 🥰
It was a great story of bringing this car back to almost-new-off-the-factory-floor condition, having a setback that NOONE wants to have, feeling horrible and then doing what any real man should do and does: recovers with aplomb and sorts the mistake out to the point where result is even better than pre-setback. Bro, you've done a job few can and all the props possible to you and those that helped you with it. Thoroughly enjoyed the story of the Project Marbais. Well done :D
That is one super high quality paint job! It's a shame he is all the way out in Poland! The car looks amazing and good to see another E30 out on the road. The windows could do with a light tint, it would just finish the car off.
Quality, quality, quality, so happy to see this back on the road, looks amazing, great work, love the channel and content, great work, more please!
It looks amazing! Well worth the wait and I’m glad that people from my country helped you achieve this result :)
I really hope that E39 estate will become M5 E39 estate :)
Probably wiser to keep the daily R6 for the time being considering current fuel prices. Plus the 525-530i e39s are brilliant to drive in their own way
no way in germany
I've seen factory photo and video shoots that weren't nearly as well done as the closing montage, and the drive-away on the perfectly straight cart path is beyond brilliant! Bravo! And the finished product...as close to perfection as any E30 could hope to be. It never looked or sounded that good coming out of the factory.
So happy to see it alive, instead of the thing being in the junk yard.
This pictures, the history of this car, something got on my eyes.....
Man, i'm so happy with your decision to keep It, i'm looking foward to see the e31 and e92.
Amazing, so happy to see this come back. I remember my heart dropping when the previous part came out and it's amazing to see this beauty back to its former glory.
I do not think, i ever saw an E30 sitting that high (before you changed the springs), even from teh factory, except maybe the iX versions.
Eibach springs for the E30 are basically stock spring rates that have been cut-/shortened. They have a love-/hate relationship in the E30 community honestly.
Looking good man!
I love my M20 520i E34s. Not fast, but such happy engines.
Well done Amigo that is one hell of a restoration! Can't thank you enough for the quality and entertainment you provide, but what I like the most is your genuine down to earth matter of fact openness. Such a rarity these days you need to preserve that in a jar and sell a bucket load of it! Cheers from Downunder.
Fabulous job done, Sreten! Must admin I had a smile and wet eyes at the end of the video. Perfect!
The most beautiful car you have! It brights of all love you drop over him. A valuable time spent correctly.
A car so clean you can 30x zoom on it and it's still perfect :D
This is just.. magnificent, beautiful...
Good job Sreten, as per usual! Now you have once again a perfect E30 in the kingdom!
Looking forward to seeing the next one, keep it up!
So glad you were able to get it fixed, it came out perfect! Enjoy every minute driving it 👍
Just BEAUTIFUL. Damn this was the era of nice looking Beemers. Wel done Sreten looks awesome.
I can’t believe how this tiny little thing has way more charm than any 3 series from today
I paused for at least 15 minutes just for the beauty shots. It's amazing how lovely it resulted in. Fantastic, fanstastic work Sreten. Thank you for the inspiration.
That's a beautiful old BMW, you did a great job! Those back roads were perfect for it.
Sreten, years of repairing crashed cars from Gemany in Poland has an advantage :) . As a Polish guy I'm happy to hear so nice comments :)
As usual a great video. This is the solution to our current problem. Making old cars usable and beautiful. Electric vehicles are not the solution. So nice to see this amount of passion.
Amazing job, this must be cleanest E30 I’ve ever seen! So satisfying to see it brought back from the unfortunate state it was in
The sound of the car is amazing. That was a very good decision to install the Simmons exhaust. Beautiful car.
I finally got my e36 318i back on the road after 4 months because I dropped a bolt and it ate it. I know that crippling feeling of dread when killing a car, happens to the best of us, and even though it's slower than my brothers r53 cooper S, the feeling of starting it back up and going for a drive on MY project, MY car, MY shitbox, has got to be the best and I'm sure you felt the same. Your videos, horrible financial tendencies, and pure willpower, helped me keep my car on the road. Im a big fan Sreten, keep up the good work!
for some reason i think doing dry ice cleaning of underbody would be real final step in this restoration!! Great job!!!
