@@kickassaz Will do 💪 be taking him out again with the new exhaust on 😆🤫

@@BrandonDrives love it mate. What exhaust you go for ? I have an fn2 type R, it's had a complete restoration of all mechanical bits, runs amazing now. I want an exhaust for mine. Considering the cobra system. Sounds mad

@kickassaz Nice, there's always bits to be done isn't there 😆 I was planning to upload every mod I do on this car but life just gets busy. I have a "Gravity Performance Catback" I will upload videos on this exhaust at some point, so turn notifications on to be alerted when I do. 👍

@@BrandonDrives nice work mate. If I could offer some advice for you. It would be to get the underside cleaned up and undersealed or apply lanoguard on everything. Stop the rust mate. 🤞

@kickassaz appreciate that, I'm lucky with this car as the rust is minimal, or was when I bought it 8 months ago. I've been thinking of taking to Motion Motorsport when I have the spare cpins like I think it was Olly Ross that did it too.

Nah, this is a petrol, 1.6 I believe. 150bhp

@@BrandonDrives there is only 3 1.6 options for the Astra h and none of them are 150hp, z16xe 105hp also known as the twin port, z16xer 115hp the more common engine, and the z16let / a16let which has 180hp, like I said the only 150hp is the 1.9 CDTI diesel.

@@edwardwillis6409 It is a 1.8 litre 138bhp according to cartaxcheck.com. I just rounded up to 150bhp

@@BrandonDrives ok, why wouldn’t you round it to 140hp? Btw I had a SRI 138hp loved that car

@edwardwillis6409 Rounding to 150 is better for a youtube title. Was a good car, too slow for me so I got a Honda civic ep3 type r

I'll take him out again when I have an exhaust and intake on it 😈 Also when the weathers a bit nicer. I'll be doing some POV's too 👍

I'll do a couple of pov's when we get some decent weather 😭😆 This car gets way more attention than I thought it would 😄

@@BrandonDrives sounds good mate! Yeah my fk2 gets a lot of attention and people wanting to race all the time 😂 are you taking your ep3 to Santa pod this year?

@MattyEminem I haven't thought about Santa Pod tbf, I am thinking of going Jap Fest at Silverstone in April tho

@@BrandonDrives it’s a good event tbf, nice I’m going the that as well!

At the time this video was recorded, the car was completely stock, I've since put an induction kit on it and will release a video on it soon.

Currently have ram-air induction kit on it, it makes the same sound but a lot cheaper 😅 I might take him out again or when I get an exhaust 🤫

In this video yeah it was stock, I'd argue they "feel" quick, especially for an 80 year old man 😆

Next video will be a few mods, stay tuned 👌

I wanted an ep3 for almost 3 years before I decided to bite the bullet, I only wish I'd done it sooner 😆

@BrandonDrives Sure mate, I went around the houses car wise, then I met V Tech, As I love bikes also, these cars remind me of bikes so much, especially when there cold, I've swapped my k20 engine for a k24, looking to reach the magical 300bhp NA this year. 🫡

@Rooney_the_grey_bird My old mans very much into bikes, always has atleast a couple of them 😅 Think he has a Sazuki Hyabusa at the moment and a zzr1400. Whatever that means, I dont know anything about bikes. He's yet to drive the type r but be interesting to see what he thinks. Im hoping to remap my type r eventually to 260bhp ish n/a. Thats a year or 2 off tho i imagine.

Had my EP3 since 28th October and I cant fault it, had no issues so far.🤞I've done an oil change, and fit a cold air intake so far.

Appreciate the support 🙏

Yeah 🫡

Yeah, I get what you're saying, I do drive with the intention of ditching it should I need to. Can never really justify "speeding." It's pitch black, which means you can very easily see other headlights if you use dipped lights on corners. Also, don't drive roads that you don't know like the back of your hand. Appreciate your comments 🙏

Cooper S' are lovely cars, I'd buy 1 one day given the opportunity, highly modifiable.

I'm gonna do a POV video soon, In this video I was trying not to throw him about the cabin 😅

fairs@@BrandonDrives

Amen brother 🙏🏻

Love n respect bruv, my grampy is the one who got me into cars. He collected Road and Track and Car n Driver mags since the 1940s and unfortunately, I just inherited them 😢. I recently got the fl5 he would have LOVED to ride in. Thanks for this video mate!!

lost my grandpa last year and seeing him enjoy the machine is just wonderful feeling

@ajjayveall Lost my grandma on the other side couple weeks ago, can never have enough time with em can ya.

My sincere condolonces bud ,I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Wishing you peace during this difficult time.@@BrandonDrives

A few hundred £ later 😢

That's an interesting monologue 😅 The light was turning green so perfectly safe to accelerate, also this was my mate in front so there was no pressure from me to actually make him accelerate as he knew it was me honking so no danger there. 🤦‍♂ The whole joke of beeping was that the light was only just turning green 😅 You just wasted all that time typing this comment just for it to be a complete waste. 🤷‍♂

Yellow (amber) means proceed with caution depending if the light is turning red or green. But yeah, handy I suppose.

@@BrandonDrives we Americans dont we get a red then str8 to green

no this is in New Zealand silly

@@fredredd Actually It's England 🤪

You do realize traffic safety is still a thing

@@PistolPollution1 Since when? 😳

Fuck yea this was so dangerous and unsafe. His friend up front had no choice but to go.

@@Droan11 what? 😅

🤣

Glad you enjoyed 🙂

Thats so insenstive the guy driving is colour blind

@@fredredd I actually am colour blind 😆

Got places to be 😉😆

As far as I'm aware, this car was completely stock. Im 99% sure it revved high because I pressed the accelerator.

Also, this car is a JCW.

@@BrandonDrivesit’s got the JCW style pack but it’s a cooper s, JCW have different exhaust tips and the JCW badging and alloys also the plastic trim would have a lip sticking out to accommodate the alloys sticking out for the breaks. I know JCWs do the exhaust blip from stock was just confused as this is a cooper s thanks tho :)

@juck19 damn, didn't know that. You 100% sure it's not a JCW? Do they have more power?

@@BrandonDrives JCW has 231HP also i watched a couple of your vids of the car, the JCW has red accents on the dials inside the car usually has the red alcantara bucket seats rather than the cloth black, on the outside you’ll notice a red line on the front accent grille huge red brembo brakes under the callipers due to this the plastic trim has to have a lip on it the JCW also has completely different exhuasr pipe trim and has a JCW badge rather than a Cooper S badge I have a cooper s and it’s identical to yours I’m going to get a JCW soon and know lots of people who have them. The cooper sport which is this model just had the JCW styling pack on it so the spoiler the sport front and rear bumper too. You can also reg check the car too

escape modificado, es un gasolina manual.
