Hello!
My name is Paul. I am a car enthusiast, mainly British classics but not exclusively. My days are spent in a cold yard in Rochdale where I attempt to make a living messing about with mostly Rovers and making videos of my adventures! My videos are very much a creative outlet and I love to make them weird and wonderful
I am always on the lookout for cars to test drive and speak enthusiastically about.

This car is NOT worthwhile saving, but I won't just scrap it. Why?
Переглядів 2,3 тис.4 години тому
This Rover 25 CVT came as part of a deal I did recently with my friend Boaty. However, the car's gearbox gave up almost straight away, leaving me with a problem - these gearboxes are hard to come by, and the car isn't in good enough condition to warrant the costs. In fact, nowhere near. Join the channel by clicking this link: ua-cam.com/channels/kbU6wWegq1SbRiyhybvHXg.htmljoin All of music can ...

The Return Janet DATA Jackson. Rover 25 L-series. 90 miles and a weird noise.
Переглядів 1,2 тис.День тому
This little motor was bought about 15 months ago to sell on. However, having fixed what needed doing it was then commandeered by Boaty for his work commute. Now he has bought a Peugeot and doesn't need this. That means I need to get it up sale. I was alerted an unusual sound going on, though, which left me concerned about it getting the 90 miles back home from Chesterfield. Join the channel by ...

My Car is Having an Affair

I pop over to Burnley to view an MG F 160 with a view to someone else buying it. My thoughts wander into the obscure as I decide that my own car is having an affair with another man.

Lost Keys, Immobiliser Problems, and a Broken Gearbox
The sign for the 'best cheese shop' put me in mind of the Monty Python 'cheese shop' sketch.... OWNER: Finest cheese shop in the district sir! CUSTOMER: (annoyed) Explain the logic underlying that conclusion, please. OWNER: Well, it's so clean, sir! CUSTOMER: It's certainly uncontaminated by cheese... 😃
That was a great drive out, but I simply cannot believe you did not take the opportunity to mention Gisburn now famously twinned with Menton thanks to Renault... And its pronounced JIZBURN!
West Riding looks much more picturesque than East Riding in Yorkshire Paul.😊
I like all of it
Up North 😂😂😂. Am up North 😂😂. I don't know i have put a few things in the back of car's
Very north
I feel sad when I see a dog with their head out of the window. The wind wears down the conjunctiva of their eyes - it doesn't grown back like it does with people. Eventually, the dog WILL go blind 😢
I wasn't aware of that. My dog goes in the boot where she's safe.
Lovely drive out paul 👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you 😊
YES!! 😂 The dog in a car, head out of the window, removing the windscreen, Dog STILL needs to stick head out of the side window... I have joy about this being in here. In fact, I am going to watch that bit again 😊
It's moments like this that I lose subscribers over 😅
I miss driving up and down the country (preferably up, to Yorkshire, Lakes and Northumberland) when I worked in IT. Couldn’t entertain the Jeremy vine show, but wake up to Wogan and Ken Bruce were my favourite shows to listen to. That’s how long ago it was, wouldn’t enjoy it now with all the wanchors on the road.
Terry and the Scotish Terry
That was a jolly good video. I enjoyed it all the more because I know pretty much every centimetre of the route you took there and back. I love that bit of North Yorkshire and North Lancs. I want to drive there tomorrow in my lovely new Car.
I would love to see your new car m
I drove class 1's for 20 years, enjoyed nearly every minute of it....(Looking back with rose tinted glasses)
Yeah, forgetting about traffic, ignorant drivers and sleep deprivation.
Thank You for being a Mustard......
That's nice. ☺️
It doesn't matter how bad a day I may of had, you always put a smile on my face with your cheerful content 👍
If I can make someone happy, then it's worth the effort 😊
Always carry a Wooden stick. Top Tip!
Good tip
Get your kicks on the M66! I aint nothing but a Hound Dawg...Crying all the time.
That's a good 'un
Had all intentions for right good fry up...Got reduced Sausages..Eggs And the Mushrooms are wilting . Could I manage it? No. Maybe Tomorrow!
Why?
@ProjectNigel lack of motivation 😴
"Americans don't understand luxury." What an a-hole this guy is. It's a modified cop car, you jerk. It's not supposed to be luxurious. European arrogance. How typical.
Don't know if this is a good video or not yet, so I'll watch it and find out. I'll pre-like it though just in case.
🤣🤣🤣
I think a kseries without gearbox is less than 100kg, pretty good considering the honda d series was best part of 150kg
I didn't realise the Honda lump was that heavy
Cracking car. Those are my favourite 25 alloys too
Yeah, it's lovely
Wow, what a transformation! However making an ordinary 25 into a hot hatch is all very well, but if you were to do the same to the tourer, which is your everyday car, could you cope with the extra fuel consumption? 🤔
I wouldn't actually do it.
My dog used to sit on the back seat. We tried putting him in the boot like people say you should do but he didn't like it, too far away from the action. When he was a puppy we went to pick up Mrs Miller's new car and we put him in the boot of that and he did a big smelly poo. That was perhaps the first clue that he didn't like it in the boot. I didn't like it much either because he was part of our family, not a suitcase so it was nice to have the dog on the back seat. It was especially nice when we had an Audi TT because it was small so he was close. He would rest his head on the armrest between the front seats and I liked that. People say that stuff like Range Rovers or big Volvos are perfect dog cars but I would suggest that something in the style of the Audi TT would be much better because you can be near your dog. You'd probably struggle to fit an engine and a guitar amp in an Audi TT but that's a small price to pay in order to have your dog close by whilst you sit in traffic. He had a harness thing that attached to the seat belt things it was perfectly safe. Probably safer than being in the boot. Thank you for this nice video, I liked it.
A brilliant observation as ever. Thank you
I like my dog to be on the back seat too but I think she prefers it in the boot. This was especially true when I had silly Subarus and she would frequently end up in the footwell.
Great video Paul. Thanks for uploading
Here's a question, which is causing me lack of sleep. Shison was the only gender fluid Rover that we're aware of. Does that mean if their ECU, essentially brain, goes into another car that it will then also become a gender fluid car. Isn't science wonderful?
Well no, because it was nonsense 😅
Love the video can you do one one the vauxhall viscount please❤
I would, given the chance
The good thing about it is: they make 'em in France instead of South Africa. .....Hilarious😂!
Parts will help many others and you will make more from parts .Good low miles engine.
Exactly
Would the aerial fit knuckles the 45?
Yes
Great video, glad your back to parts to order.
Nice job Mustard
Google royal mail collect, they will fetch from the yard
Thank you
Just think - if Jeremy Vine had other regularly played favourites, I might be watching Project Shake You Donkey Up or Project Simpleton.
That's very funny, but completely unbelievable
Probably way of doing it 😊
*Alternate Video Title*----- "Stripping down with Mustard." 👀😦😮😜
You're violating Boaty's 'Sheshon!'😂👀🦴😦
I particularly enjoyed this one. A proper OG PN Rover dismantling(ish) video with a feelgood factor of not letting an old Rover go for scrap without taking off the useful parts. 👍 I think you should award yourself a celebratory pasty for old times!😄
Just one pasty is enough, to remind me of why I stopped eating them

A Dodge isn’t a luxury car but a Chrysler is supposed to be
The Post Office is still stuck in the 1970s. Never open when anyone who has a job can use them.
Lovely job Paul 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Why would you have luxury leather in a police car? They need to be easy to clean.
Great content i agree captain mustard its better to selll the parts and make use as surely someone will want the parts them just scraping i totally agree rather someone make use of the parts and think you are making the correct choice captain mustard thank you
A CVT box failing catastrophically...how suprising
😅
On a totally unmaintained car….. for a change…
@@johnmoruzzi7236 even on well maintained cars, the CVT gearbox is designed to fail prematurely, the design in general is a complete steaming turd
Thank you for the sunroof info 🙂 And to get Royal Mail to collect, just go onto their site and click on (or search internet for) 'Send an Item with Click & Drop'.
Thank you 😊
I remember Eric aka zombric good simple engineering diesel with the chaz Lee ecu makes it great in my option well worth doing love a old skool diesel
Dare I say it what about that engine and tuned ecu in nigel with the sdi injectors and some more tuned mods that would make a insane car ?
Don’t mind a bit of Voivod to be fair!
I love L series i must admit i prefer them in the 45. I miss my old 45 i missed my audi so much I bought another one 😂😂😂
to anyone whos thinking of buying a mg zr or a rover 25 this is a list of parts and work that you will need to be replacing and doing if you own one long enough,rear tailgate loom breaks at the hinges due to poor design,rear wiper motor,rear wheel arches due to rust,rear sills due to rust,front wings due to rust,rear back exhaust,inlet manifold gasket,thermostat housing due to cracks,rear metal water pipe due to rust,head lining,drivers front outer door handle,front window motors,front central locking motors,head gasket,heater bypass valve,wiring by the battery,alarm sounder,relays in the pectron unit,sunroof unit due to rust,headlights due to fade,cam cover gasket due to leaks,steering rack leaks,heater resistor,front seats fall apart,if you have a garage keep the car in it and only take it out in dry weather or it will rust,the early production cars are better built than the new facelift models,also its hard to get decent parts to keep them on the road these days,if you go to test drive one when you first start the car the engine will be noisey on the top end and when driving the car it will rattle and creak etc but all of that is normal with a mg zr and a rover 25.
Organising your bottom lock up an entertaining video good stuff
I have good memories of that engine if N57. It started with a gentle knock in Birmingham that by the time we got back home was a full on banging. The older engine, M57, a real trooper. Less power but because the N57 quickly became razor blades, I consider it faster.
Oooo bit of l series action 😜
