moral of the story here is don't lend your car to others!

Yeah, saw that earlier. Pretty sad, but what mechanic says it's ok to drive a car that 'smells of petrol' and that has leaking (combustable) power steering fluid all over the engine 'as long as it doesn't get too hot' .
Should have trailered it as soon as he smelt fuel FFS.

I've had a faint smell of petrol in both my Exige and my 7 from day one.

I saw that last night. Pretty sad, but hopefully the insurance will pay for some of his Rolls Phantom. I still love his videos.

Was it actually a decent example or was it the usual fubard cheapest example he could find just so he could string out a YouTube series on why he hates it/all its faults/all the big repair bills?

It was reasonably decent - gopping wheels aside.
Oh and a Manuel too.

Yeah those wheels were criminal.
I'm looking forward to the Tavarish (he of the twin turbo Gaylordo fame) resurrection videos
