I won 2020 Bentley Bentaya at the Copart auction and i won!... But there was issue which meant i missed out but all my hopes were not fully wrecked as i later found another 2017 Bentayga listed at Copart but before i went for it i decide to go check it out.

I couldn't imagine going to copart with my wife, and certainly not my wife saying that the damaged "crash bar" probably needs to be replaced. I think you have a very unique partner who understands you and supports you and also understands what you do substantively. that's a keeper Mat!
Probably been through Rufford Mill ford 😉
What you on about H seems no fool she gets involved and learns been there the whole time.
Learn on the job experience who said that?..?
@@darkviper62 that is basically what he said pal read it again
Can’t be flood damaged. It won’t have been off road. Furthest it’s been will have been Waitrose car park.
Defo…..even talking about air ride 👍
The growth and consistency you've put in is overwhelming. As a South African I'm glad to say that you're a motivation to alot of South Africans.
Agreed, from a fellow South African 🙌
Bro.. the crashed cars on SMD sell for cheap.. like the 720s that crashed last year, sold for 400k.. the car has a million at least in parts
Couldn't agree any more , this guy has created content not many do and we enjoy big ups from durban south africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Couldn’t agree more ,I’m from SA
Agreed 🇿🇦
This is hands down the best car content on CZcams bar none. This shows how passion and a yearning for self improvement leads to great things. I'm addicted, I can't wait for the next vid!
Chill out, it's not "tHe bEst CaR coNtent oN YoutubE"
@@thescout4313 it is if he thinks it is…..chill out 😉
@Mike Jones doesn't work that way cupcake, wake up.
@@thescout4313 don’t watch them 😂
@@thescout4313 don’t need to take out your suppressed anger on a CZcams comment section buddy.
I’m watching this channel most nights, Netflix doesn’t get a look-in compared to your content Mat! 👌🏻💪🏻
Your infectious smile and “can do” attitude, combined with explanations is top draw mate.
I love his mad giggle when he meets a horrible problem🤣🤣😂😂 I would be crying
Same here now 😂😂😂
Seems like too much of a risk to me Mat, the single bare crank is a bit scummy to me, you’d be better off waiting for another less sketchy one to show up at auction, love from Spain my guy!!! 👏👏
Could be right bro... But i do love a risk ...
@@MatArmstrongbmx this is yr job Mat, i still remember when u went to look at the Murcielago, and there was too of them the yellow and the green, the yellow one was a bit expensive and really clean!! but u decided to buy the green one cuz it was in bad condition.. u said i want to have fun hehe, which is the main thing of yr channel, good luck man with everything in yr whole life
@@MatArmstrongbmx i found too easy for u to be honest.
@@MatArmstrongbmx That’s why I love this channel 😅 you take risks no one would do then you go through all doubts that come with the risks. I can see some great content coming from this project
Mat it’s at £44k ,leave it m8 far too expensive now especially with all the unknowns
Mat, that post under the hood is ONLY connected to the starter and the second battery, and can be isolated from that battery by the pyrofuse and the batteries are also seperated by a contactor, so putting power to it at those posts will only power the starter, and the first battery will (after the accident) only supply power to the vehicle electronics. So you would need to jump it at both the main battery AND the posts under the hood simultaneously. Also, I remember the W12 being fairly robust mechanically, not like a 1.4TSI, were the rods probably bend if you sneeze too hard, so I would say it's most likely fine, and the water is in the bottom, but the top of the intercooler goes to the engine, and the bottom only goes to the turbo, so it's highly unlikely that it sucked up any water.
Might also be the case with some blown fuses in the main fuse-box.. it's worth a check for all fuses and the control units that are seating on floorboard beneath the seats, if those have the board flooded or water can cause oxidization and they might cause car not start.
Agreed but the roof not seating would put me off, cos jigging on of them would need a helluva portapower 😂👍
Probably one of the best comments I've ever read
Those rods wouldn’t win the battle against water compression!
It’s all a risk dude. Would have to be brave to take this on. Unless he could get it for 20% of list price. Like £15-£20k
I massively respect the effort (and money!) you put into these videos man. So inspiring. Also huge respect for the lack of clickbait in the video titles and thumbnails. No bullsh*t 👊
I can watch this channel for hours and hours. Mat deserves 10 million subs
It's THE go-to channel
i go to his playlists and watch it while im at work
Come on Mat. We all know risk means content and a bigger learning experience and challenge for you and you've met all you've faced so far! Wouldn't be quite as fun if it was an intercooler swap out and new wing would it. Go for it 😀
True story
Agreed🙌🏼🙌🏼
This is the best car channel Mat, thank you for your hard work🙌
Look what you have achieved so far!! Go for it Matt. I look forward to watching another awesome build. Keep up the good work
Cracking videos as usual, over Christmas period rather than watch most crap on TV I have been going back through all of your videos as more interesting!!!! Keep up the great work Matt & Hannah superb 👍👍👍👍👍
I just love your channel Mat. The skills you have acquired and confidence you have to complete the projects is astonishing. You are an inspiration.
Wow, Mat the way you have took this channel is really amazing. I came on-board from the first Bentley and I was sucked in by the way you just attacked it with a hammer and mole grips. Now look at you fantastic. The best thing is you have never changed, just got better. So happy for you sir.
Best channel of 2022 for sure a motivation 🏆 teachable stuff! I look at Wrecked cars differently now days 👍🏼
What I saw the state of that Cayman I thought you were crazy but the result is awesome. I suspect that the Bentley is a bigger risk, and that W12 lump is quite a challenge, but if you don’t get bid up too far then go for it. It will be a beautiful beast at the end and I will enjoy watching the journey. Good luck Mat!
i swear mat armstrong is one of those underrated youtuber out there
He blowing up what do you mean???
Wouldn’t call him underrated ,have you seen his views his smashing it
Far from underrated. Kids blown.
I don’t think so. He’s still reasonably new in YT growth potential, and nearly on a mill already, so not too shabby…
Hardly with 921K subscribers!
I don't know if Mat remembers but he made a video about a new exhaust on his old MERCEDES E350 CDI V6 about 4 years ago. and in that video, me and my friends saw mat and my local park on the ramps so we decided to go over to him. he was such a nice guy as I was quite scared being about 11 at the time. I remember getting home and subscribing to his channel at like 2k subscribers. it so nice to see him come all this way. well done mat.
Thanks so much man!!😅
@@MatArmstrongbmx no worries. Carry on doing your best man 👍🏻 loving the content!
Fairly new to your channel Mat, but I’ve overdosed in watching your videos. I love your can do attitude and dedication to get the job finished even if you are there till the early hours and then up the very next morning to get a tune or go to a dealership. Hats off Mat keep the content coming. Not sure if it’s been mentioned already but have you looked into a Lamborghini urus as your replacement for Hannah nicking the Range Rover?
I found your channel recently & all I can say I’ve been extremely addicted to all your videos - binge watching like a Netflix show! Keep up the amazing work, you’re a massive inspiration!
i stumbled into this channel a few months ago and have binged almost every rebuild project since. i wasn’t a car guy but you have changed the way i look at cars and i’ve gained more of an appreciation of them. keep up the great work🔥
go with your gutt matt, whatever the outcome we're here to support you in your journey while entertaining us as reward 😀 love the content and inspire me to keep going myself keep it up Man!
Go for it, I want to see that thing start and run! it's like a series of CSI investigation...I'm hooked!
If it was a runner I'd think about it, but with it not even turning over I personally would pass or offer £500 and see how hard you were laughed at. Please keep up the good work and I'm already looking forward to the next instalment. 👍
I mean small market for parts but def would be able to recoup what he pays if parted out
I would swerve this one Mat tbh. Could be a massive headache without any success. Happy new year to you and Hannah 🎉
Love the channel Mat. The damage seems to go at and angle from driver side front in a diagonal across the windscreen and has possibly twisted or shocked the sunroof, as the cracks on the windscreen stop behind the interior mirror. You've hands for everything........its a challenge, go for it !!!!!!
I'm an engineer and thought exactly that myself. A small flex at the front stacks up the further away from the point of impact. Like opening a fan or an explosion so to speak. I'd be running away from that one.
Go on Mat get the bentayga. It'll be awesome and great to watch the rebuild. Love your videos thanks for doing them I learn loads by watching them. Top Guy Mat 👍
Crazy to see all the cars you are now looking at and your crazy car collection!
I was watching you back when you had less an 80K Subscribers and It’s soo crazy that you are not far of 1M Subscribers and the growth of your channel is out of this world!
Keep up the hard work Mat and you will get to 1 Million Subscribers in no time!
There’s a reason you don’t see any negativity on this channel from us fans! Original and fresh every time 👊🏽 keep plugging away, diamond geezer! ✨
Thanks so much man!!
@@MatArmstrongbmx no thank you bro 🙏🏽
@@MatArmstrongbmx so probley a 70k car when it's fixed I'm thinking 40/50k gives you 20k to spend on it 🤔
I always like before even watching cause I know it’s a banger 🙆🏾♂️🙏🏾
Having read through a load of the comments it would appear the general consensus is "go on - get it" , I would tend to agree too, its what you do best ! Those in the know appear to have ruled out any potential engine damage from water, so maybe a little research to confirm this and your quids in again! Just love this channel , well done Matt & Hannah , ps. Happy New Year both.
This definitely seems like the type of risk you would take and no doubt be able to fix up into an amazing looking car! Looking forward to whatever the decision is and next project. Loving the content as always ❤️
Love the channel Mat. Love going on this journey with you. Watched your bio video the other week - inspirational. You've taken many risks to date and come good. Go with your gut.....not your heart
Absolutely go for it. The more content the better. I look forward to your videos as much as a new episode of Star Wars !!
Having had a couple of continental GT's the Bentayga is now my dream car to own, you certainly are a man to take risks, Im sure you could sort this. Maybe 40k or less would be a decent price and if it could't be fixed there has got to be value in the parts ? either way Mat good luck, Happy New year to you both, great channel.
One thing I admire is the risks you take, and you always succeed in every challenge handed to you! Love the your channel, love this video, it will be a sick build! 🤙🏻
Keep grinding and doing what you do Mat! You are inspiring so many and it’s an awesome journey you are on with so much positivity.
i love these pre purchase videos, buy it buy it!!! It will be a definite epic build mat!
Mat this is the SUV you need to do! I asked the other week about doing a powerful one up, this looks like the one! As unmountable boot volume said below, follow your heart, get knuckles deep in it and enjoy the ride.
Don't doubt yourself now lad. This is what you do so go for it! We are with you. Happy New Year to everyone.
MAT! Go for it- I cant wait to see you repairing this Bentley! You have Super Human Power mate!
Matt, you are the most likeable Car CZcamsr out there. Stay humble as you are, and keep on delivering this outstanding content 👍 and yes, go for that car, we want to see the process. 😁
Let’s get it !! 🔥🔥
New project !!
First comment since I’ve subbed and it’s been a good choices.
Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Mat smashing it again. Success fully deserved. Brilliant.
I've found that when the engine is seized and the starter engages that the car will actually shake a bit from the force of the starter hitting an engine that won't budge. If you aren't feeling that movement then I would think it's another issue other than a frozen engine. Great job with your videos!
I have just watched Shmee’s video when he came to see you, it really showcases how far you have come on top of your recent video and I am sure that your audience will grow massively in 2023. Keep up the great work Matt.
Hi Mat! You and your team are amazing!
Doing something I never saw befor in a nice, funny and educational way. Keep up!!!
To this vid… I would not go for it if I couldn’t see why the sunroof is not closing properly(or at least even on both sides)
It really seems like you said in the vid that it could be from the crash…
Mat, you may also tell if the body has twisted by checking the door / jam gaps. Nice car. You can do it. You're gifted buddy. Greetings from California, USA.
Mat is one serious guy man's doing up major repairs like its nothing 👏
I remember starting to watch Mat's channel over 2 years ago when it was just over 100k, and now to see it at almost a million is amazing! Channel was definitely underrated, but I'm glad to see it getting the subscribers it deserves!
Yes, another great video with excellent content; commentary; and intrigue too.
I have no idea of final Bid price but l think £30k as upper limit is fair.
🥸👌🍷🍷💖💖🦘
Same!
I love how Matt doesn’t blame or shame copart for not doing a thorough check and just a testament to his character
I think you’ll find it’s because he has access to Copart and if he was to be derogatory in any way he would lose access. He is a free advert for Copart isn’t he?
From a gear head in USA I watch your amazing channel all the time, it’s incredible what you can do with these machines; bringing them back to life; on this one thou if water actually was in inner cooler I would be concerned about the engine; even though I know Mat can fix it either way 😊......:)
Something about watching a rebuild from scratch just keeps me indulged in Mat's videos
I can’t believe I’ve only just found this channel. Loving your work Mat and the team. Im a fan of the Bentayga but not sure this is the one for you. Saying that, from what I’ve seen, you love a tough project so I’m sure you’ll sort it. Looking forward to seeing the next instalment. Keep up the good work 👊
The good news is you're going to enjoy this chap's craft and dedication. Welcome on board👊🏼
hello i'm thijs live in the village Hapert in the netherlands
I've been watching your videos for a long time and I think it's super cool to watch because in the Netherlands we have little to no people who film the process from a damaged car to an almost new car for youtube
That's why I enjoy watching your videos
oh yes and greetings from Brabant right 😉
100% please go for it, what a car!! Would love to see you bringing this one back, great content for your channel.
Definitely buy it. If the intercooler looks like a radiator then it is an air to air heat exchanger and there would be no water in it. Perhaps the water came from somewhere else or it isn’t an intercooler you are looking at. Re the sunroof, if it is the opening panel that is sitting up it ought to be reparable. If the structure was bent enough to change the fit of the roof glass, then wouldn’t the door fit, particularly drivers door be out too round the window frame and the door not open and close properly. My hunch would be the sunroof mechanism jumped due to the crash or it was open at the crash and someone has tried to force it shut.
The production in these videos is excellent, keep up the great work!
Matt, you have 4 houses & 12 other cars, nothings a risk now! 😊 Buy it for 40k
I don't know how I found your channel, but I'm pleased I did. I admire your journey into fulfilling your dreams and reaching your potential. Now for this car I'd pay no more than 25k. Lots of love from 🇿🇦> 🇨🇦
This Channel just keeps getting better loving the recent content Mat 🤞
Great video as always Mat. Personally I'd leave this one though. It is at £44k already, plus fees... not enough left to justify the risks
Just discovered u yesterday n have watched most videos.u awesome dude.keep up
I think you have to go for it. This will make a great rebuild and for us mere mortals a brilliant and interesting watch. Go for it!!
Mat your videos just get better and better. And the cars just get more crazy🤣 this one looks like too much of a risk but wouldn't put it past you fixing it😂 wizard🙌
Taking risks is what you do best anyway so go for it, we'll be here to support. Plus it's going to be worth the challenge & experience as well
Keep doing what your doing Matt. Go with what you think as you usually do great. John
One of the best car guys on here I think. Great info always smiling and winging it occasionally 😂much rather watch your vids than TV, just need to convert my missis ,inspiration is giving me ideas left right and centre. This one looks like it could be a challenge to far buy hey ho that's you mate all over .😊
I swear everytime one of Mat's videos comes out my blood pressure builds up to a unsafe level on how bad I want to watch the video. Every video you make Mat is awsome keep it up :) Nearly at 1mil maybe in a few days
I don’t mind what damage it has as the more damage, the more content you have for us to watch. If you can afford to rebuild the worst case scenario then do it!!
It's definitely the best thing to watch right now. Keep it going matt and I would definitely give the Bentley the time and love it needs. Price would be £30,000-£35000 can't wait for the next video.
When are you uploading the rest of the videos for this Bentayga???
Seems like a risk, but what good content and learning and experience you'd gain from this rebuild. Love your channel all the way from South Africa 🌍
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦We definitely here for sho
My exact thought !
Mzansi is well represented 🥰
🇿🇦
Oh yes🇿🇦🔥🔥🔥
i love your videos Mat, i look forward to watching them after work. i wouldn’t pay more than £40-£45k, but it is definitely something you’re capable of doing! random suggestion, but would love to see a porsche cayenne repair. all the best mate
Another vote for a Cayenne here.
Matt been following you from when you worked in the indian restaurant. Would love to see you 1 million subs, it's been quite a journey!!
I also can’t believe how many subs you have now. I swear to god you were just at 350k! LOVE seeing the growth!!!
The question is, if you buy it and cant fix it. How much of an impact will that have on you? whether that be financially, mentally etc. If its something that's fairly easy to recover from, which im guessing it is. Its gotta be worth the punt right? Easy to say when its not your money i know lol
Came across your channel a few weeks ago. Binged pretty much all your projects in the last 2 years. keep it up man, the only youtuber i consistently watch these days.
The biggest question you need to ask yourself mate... Is the Mrs going to pap you back into the Range if you go for the Bentley 👀😂. Best part of the day when the new video notification comes up 👌🏻
Yes buy it! I need to know. I'm new here, love the channel, best of luck with it
Go for it Mat, can't wait for final look
Let’s all work together and get this guy millions and beyond subscribers, as long as he stays the way he is he will keep growing. I don’t think he is one of those that will let it go to his head.... I hope not because he seems such a decent guy.
That is a beautiful spec Bentayga - close to perfect in my opinion. However, there are lots of potential issues and, even with the VW parts bin, I can only see the bills mounting (although, at £80k+ you have a good margin to play with). Looking forward to seeing which way you go... Another great vid, but as always the star has to be your dog! I've definitely fallen for him...
Just get it and lets see the mat rebuilds... Do what mat does best 💪🏽
Hi Matt loving your channel literally my daily watch now. I'm wondering of you could add the hours to your builds as you have a lot of time lapse moments which are cool but, I'd love to know how long things take too. Also how did you get started with this in relation to money did you fund it yourself then get sponsorship? I'd love to start doing this but, the money side of it seems crazy. I'm a lot older than you but, would love to do this. Any tips, advice etc on how to get started would be much appreciated 👍🏻. Cheers Mat.
Matt.
I'd say you should take it Mat, I think the roof is not damaged otherwise it would have been a CAT S and I think the engine is clean because the water from the intercooler is there after the crash and it will start because of the pyrofuse as well as the Airbag Control Module. Wish you all the best at the auction tomorrow!. Sending you love from California!!
Would only be cat S if the insurer had been able to see it. You can have structural without a insurer managing to check it properly.
I see Mat Armstrong Breaking a 1 000 000 subs in the next month or two 🎉 Well Deserved for sure!
Now that the Grand Tour is so unpredictable, Mat definitely fills the gap for a decent car show!
Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦
1000000 subs by next weekend lol
WHEN he hits the milli we need a montage video with the CZcams plaque at the end 👍🏻 like a greatest hits of the journey so far 👍🏻 well done Mat much deserved 💪🏻
@@Ben-yp4rr do it
@@wilspu5590 wish I was that talented to do that 🤣
It's always a risk taking on a crash damaged vehicle but you always pull through so you should go for it Mat. Another South African that's loves your channel
Yes, it would be great content to see you rebuild that.
Anyone else just instantly like, cuz u know it's gonna be a good video😂
of course you take the risk. One thing you have always done since the BMXing is taking risks. Its done you well so far Mat
I think i have an itch for taking risks hahah
Quick way to check if an engine is seized or hydrolocked, put an amp clamp on the negative lead, if its drawing more than 200amps the starter is trying to turn the engine over.
Hey Matt also check if the car has Adaptive cruise control (ACC)
If so the 2 radars are located on the front left and right area of the bar.
Right where that one is damaged
If it does it will need a new radar and full calibration, quite expensive
Add that to your budget calculations
I love the idea of a bentayga, I just reckon you’re better off finding or wanting for a newer generation one to come up, the interior on the new ones is miles miles better.
Which one have you got moosh
@@oaga71625e I think you missed the point of the comment, if you’re in the position to buy a car like this then you’re better off in many ways getting the newer one
It’s a Audi q7 in drag
I'd definitely walk away from that one. The slam panel was obliterated right up to the chassis leg combined with the wheel impact. I think this vehicle has mounted something and potentially twisted the chassis.
The roof misalignment is not a closure issue.
These are my options and are open to interpretation and I thank you for providing such great content that evokes such an interest in what you do that I feel the want to voice said opinions.
Excellent work sir, carry on!
Pay the man
Matt I enjoy your videos. I work on cars and boats for a hobby everyday after work. Definitely makes me think I too could do this.
Remember watching a video on a C63 that had sucked up water during a flood. Engine hydro-locked and car written off!!
I’d love to see you sort it though Mat!
Keep up the awesome content 👍👍
Risky one this but you have more experience with this than most of us! Looking forward to the M5 rebuild, what a beast of a car! Hope you guys are settling in nicely to the new place.
Iam so glad he did another bmw
I know this might be far fetched as most of the work you put on the cars takes hours, but have you thought about live streaming parts of the rebuild process on any of the cars? I`d love to see you and your mates bashing your heads at night in the unit, trying to figure stuff out. Other than that, top notch content man, keep it up!
Good shout but if you haven't already found it the Mat Armstrong MK2 channel has a lot of unedited footage like that.
@@bman2827 I know about the 2nd channel - I follow that for extended cuts (as that`s what they are) but I`m more interested in raw footage from him, if that makes sense.
Hi Matt, because the curtain airbags have deployed, it is common for panoramic roof rails or joints to become damaged. Then the glass will sit crookedly on it.
This is guy is true car guy saving these beautiful machines what a legend
