    Todays the day I finally get the wrecked Porsche 911 GT3 back on the road since it was crashed when Adam Lz owned it. I’ve repaired all the structural damage, but now comes the expensive part … So many parts on the Porsche were damaged in the crash and I’ve got to replace them all! But it’s not as easy as it looks!

    Straight to the point. No filler or fluff. Just pure content. Even the shout out to sponsors is watchable. Doesn’t pretend to know everything and openly admits that he doesn’t. Smiling like he’s opening Christmas presents as he puts the calliper on. Love this channel.

      I was just wondering why I enjoy Mat's content so much, at the same time as getting bored of some of the other car channels, and I land on your comment. That is exactly spot on. An infectious personality, genuineness and absolute bonkers projects!

    I wasn't even interested in cars a couple of weeks ago, let alone in restoring wrecked ones - until I stumbled across one of them Mat's videos. 2 weeks later here I am, compulsively checking his channel for the next update on that 911GT3 rebuild. What a legend you are Mat, I guess it's your dedication and personality that we come here to watch after all, not cars. Great job man, keep it up!

On the wheels, I'd have gone blk with a yellow pin stripe along the edge of the wheels. 😉👌Nice!!! Your smile at the end of the video says it all. You got an awesome car.

      @Andreas Carlsson Iirc, LZ said that he didn't want to own it, due to fear of being crashed into again and the bad memories. But _maybe_ we can see a track visit or something like that, away from public. Would be awesome in any case.

    Class content as always! Quick tip on the adjustable shocks, count the threads e.g. 17 visible threads to start with and you want to add more preload (stiffen the spring tension) then you would tighten the lock rings to reveal 2 additional threads, for example.
