Some very positive comments on the various late brake show posts too 8-)

And 11/10 for not mentioning anything about it before it went out. :lol:

Out of the cars there, I think the Compact is the one that surprised me how much I like it. It looks great in that colour.

Hold on. How's the fence staying up when it's not attached to the M3 ????

I like how the Alfasud appears to be in much better condition than the E30 M3 .

I mean, things I thought I'd never type 😂

The blue / green one was painted charcoal metallic in my parents garage and is the one on the vid 👍

I really enjoyed that!

So when are you switching to become a full-time YouTuber, @integrale_evo :D

Fantastic Harry! 8-)

Just watched it this lunchtime. It's nice to see them all together actually and gives a much better perspective on what an interesting collection you've got.

Ah. I thought there was a black and a green one and that we took the engine out of one, to put in the other... A long time ago! Am I thing of Matt's?

Matt had a black one, the one we took the engine out of was also black :lol:

I liked the original colour but it was impossible to match so even when painted looked like a patchwork quilt.

If I thought there would be an audience for my boring monotone delivery then I’d quite happily give up work to mess about with cars and make the odd vid.

Maybe better suited to bed time stories to send people to sleep 🤣

Must admit I’ve been shocked at the number of positive comments and lack of piss taking. I was genuinely pretty worried about it going out 😬

FWIW, I'd subscribe if you started doing videos of you working on your cars.

Good vid, enjoyed that 👍

Were you going to put two engines in a Metro at one point? Or did I dream that.

Not really a plan, but given time and a decent workspace I would love to make a mid engined one by sticking a second front subframe in the back, ie exactly what an mgf is, but keeping the metro body fairly stealthy.

Realistically, unless someone offers me a workshop and change of career I’ll never get around to it :lol:

Cracking video and I think you came across well.
