    Shows the need to ask around for recommendations pre MOT! Some places just do not understand how to apply the rules to an old car like the mini, but that guy just sounds like a knob full stop!

  • @andyyork9598
    @andyyork9598 6 років тому +5

    Well done for sticking with it and seeing it through to the finish Tom , with all the problems you've had through the build it would have been tempting to leave it in the garage and walk away , its a credit to you mate .PS. Am I the only person who doesn't like the head lamps . Probably showing my age .

    • @TomShorrock
      @TomShorrock  6 років тому +1

      hahah! thanks Andy! the headlamps are an acquired taste. the reason I bought them was because i hope to be doing some road trips next year which will involve driving at night and country lanes! so they should help me out where there isnt any street lamps :)

    Sorry haven't been well, but hope you are on the mend.
    I would have to agree with you about the MOT. Sounds like he was having a bad day/week/life. Look at the car!
    Clearly the second guy had eyes and common sense.
    Have had a bit of a look at your Mini, and think you have to be very proud of the end result.
    Sadly, I'm in New Zealand so may never see it live, but hats off....

    Great video, Tom! Might come Bingley in Jan to see your mini if free. My Mini is garaged till next years L2B run, as I only use it for summer shows, so I'll be driving my new project/daily being my 1.6 phase 2 Citroen Saxo VTR there if i go which looks sick and is fast as f*uk! Had it remapped last week as well. Sadly won't be driving my mini there which was featured in Novembers MiniWorld mag and your excellent channel some months back..... Anyway your mini is looking awesome! Hope to catch it in Jan. Keep well friend. 👍👍👍

      thebluep0tat0 fair point, but when I’m working with companies I have to plug them... the time I put into the videos and the return I get on them is a joke... literally like £20 a month and I spend 100s of hours producing... if I’m going to continue doing this I may need to plug a few people and believe me it’s not for my own benefit it’s for everyone who wants me to continue doing these videos 👌🏻 hope you understand

      If you watch normal TV am sure you will find alot more product plugging and marketing what is shoved in your face daily. None of us contribute to watch his videos so if plugging certain brands helps him save money on products to put into the next build we all benefit from it not just him.
