Hehheh. Did you lads know, how I found you was, finally having a carport to wrench on my old Volvo, I had a computer playing music on UA-cam, I was like, "Something's missing." UA-cam search "Boys clowning around in garage." There you were. :) (I lost track but that was vaguely ten years ago, give or take. Edit: Err, musta been more than ten but don't make me admit it. :) )
Will there be a sophisticated head dress such as bandanas available? Preferably tennis styleeeee....asking for a friend?
Any vw mk2 golf this Yr on the channel
you guys not mentioning the ghost thats haunted your garage for years is good... best not to taunt it
The best clip was putting the engine, back into Mr Vtech
SLMFAO
I'm 45, and I'm not ashamed to say I've been here from *almost* the start. Your enthusiasm is infectious and the last 15 years has been great. Thanks for never taking the paywall money and for consistently being just bloody brilliant. Really appreciate all the work.
I’m 38, and I’ve been watching since day one too. At the time before UA-cam commercials, MCM were the only car UA-camrs. Freaking awesome to see how much they have grown. Best channel on UA-cam
Why should you be ashamed?! THESE GUYS ARE BRILLIANT.
YOUR COMMENT
SHOULD HAVE SAID I HAVE BEEN *PROUDLY* WATCHING M & M
NOTHING TO *”ashamed*” of HERE AT MCM!
@@PetetG lol cos I feel like Gramps
@@paulleggett9735
You mean like Super Gramps!
Been watching you guys since I was 5/6 years old back in 2014. I’m 15 now and would just like to say thank you guys so much for giving me an amazing childhood and for building my love for cars. Keep on going guys!
Love this
@@junkboxgarage6071 thanks man!
Legendary comment ✌🏻
@@MrPlum1282 thanks mate 😊
Thanks dad!
Thanks guys for every thing you have done. I am 78 years old and really do enjoy your builds and stories.
Soooo many memories, it makes me realise how long I’ve been watching. An amazing friend recently arranged a surprise phone call from Moog. Moog, if you happen to read this, I truly hope you understand how much it meant to me, you are truly like you are on the videos, just a top bloke. Here’s to many more years to come of amazing content. Thank you both gentlemen.
What Moog said about loving cars/car people during the K car Enduro behind-the-scenes film resonated to the core. From a fellow GTI and Rx7 owner I would like to say thank you to your whole team for producing wholesome, fun, cinema-worthy content on a regular basis. You all are part of the best of our generation's contribution to car culture. Thanks again and all the best to yall! 🎉
moogs music makes this channel as much as the videography to me. when he makes hiphop beats i cream. keep up the great work boys
I’ve been watching for years.
I’m 58 and I love this show.
Car culture is forever changing and it’s changed here in the UK.
I’ve lived in Australia and particularly the western suburbs of Sydney.
You’ve given me inspiration and the confidence to work on my cars.
Good work fellas!
Love from Newcastle upon Tyne England.
Were you around for the max power era?
@@Alfiepowers...yes :)
I've been watching MCM for about 12 years now consistently and it's honestly as weird as it is to say its's saved my life. So many people love the work you guys do. ❤ Hears to another 16 years.
Everyone has dark days bro. Just need a genuine reference point to guide us thru and don't give up. I get what U meant
It’s funny. The dudes have been in my life for years, so feel like great mates when I haven’t had the opportunity to meet them in person and say thanks for the memories. Big up’s Marty and Moog, thanks for the memories and particularly spending Christmas with me each year.
Christmas is quite a lonely time for me but I can always count on the MCM special to keep me company and bring some joy to my day
@@benllewelyn98 Amen to that brother 🙏 👌🤙💯
Ive been watching you for 13 years. Im tuning 23 in 3 weeks, saw you guys at Bathurst in 2015. so much of my life has changed since I was in school dreaming about being old enough to drive, to now being a fully qualified mechanic. Im loving every day of it and you two have been there every step of the way. Probably because you're genuinely a great pair of friends we can all relate to. Thanks for being authentic for 16 years guys!
your lucky to be in the right country to see em dude
I’m just about in the same boat, went from being 10 years old to a Porsche Classic restoration technician working on $1,000,000+ Porsches, and these fellas have been there the whole way! Much love to the MCM guys all the way from NYC!
‘We made a thing’
I’ve been watching you for perhaps 14 of those 16 years and can confirm
you certainly did make a thing.
You made and continue to make a difference!
I’d love to see a show that gives the MCM ‘family tree’ showing all the different folks you’ve worked with like Al, Benny and all the other members of the MCM family came together and what they’ve gone on to do - also it’s great to recently see the folks who aren’t normally on camera get a mention and it’d be great to hear their stories and about their work
Thanks to everyone involved- legends each and every one of you!
What an amazing 16 years you have created for us all, yourself and the people around you. Everyone did their part, but you two started it all!
Wish you the best ❤
16 years ago I was 15 years old in Greece and I was just searching for car videos on UA-cam when I saw your channel. Maybe only a few videos in your channel back then. I wish I could forget everyhting and re-watch all of your videos from the beginning.
I already loved cars but you guys made it even stringer. I wish I meet you one day.
Recently I bought my first car since I moved to the UK, a 2015 Audi S3 that has only one sticker on it, CHOPPED.
Massive respect to both of you and whoever else that has worked on the MCM channel.
Authenticity, vulnerability, raw talent, and hard work are what I think makes you two the absolute best auto channel on UA-cam. Here's to 16 more years!
I think I speak for the entire community here; a community you had endearing love for since the very beginning; we all thank you and your team and wholeheartedly appreciate the information, it's presentation and it's entertainment and all the efforts and time invested by not only you but the sacrifices yourselves, friends, family, even partners may have made over the years... in your growing and nurturing what has become one of the most appreciated and recognized automotive channels on the web. Cheers mates! - keep doin' wut you do! - madmiketheteacha
Your channel is the main reason I have a 1995 Daihatsu Mira. I've been watching at least 10years and look forward to the next 10 years. Cheers Marty and Moog. Love you guys.
Mcm and the original top gear. Two shows on different levels but the same spirit. Cars and driving plus modifications.
Feelings that flow from the episodes are definitely awesome.
So good to see Kegan.
It's crazy to think many of us have grown up watching you guys work on nuggets in a driveway
Today is my father's and my birthday, and I've loved every episode. Thank you so much, boys, from all the feature films to Moogs' emotional tale (I lost my Dad in 2020 to cancer just before Christmas, so that story really resonated with me). Can't wait to see what you guys bring in the future!
Straight off the Batt 1:18 ..BEN & AL.💯 Mech Stig & Turbo Yoda.
Here's to 16 years of fun and shinangans boys! You've both come along way from the first video and we all can't wait to see what's Instore next! 🎉🎉🎉
we all need to agree this is one of the most influential shows out, i am not 22 and started watching from the very start. some many of your vids have influenced me into building cars and now starting on restoring, thank you guys for being influential and bringing a smile to all of us :)
Honestly, it feels like you guys are mates of mine
I first come across you guys back when you upgraded the turbo in the moogaru where I was 12 or 13, now 25 in 2 weeks. It was quite a rough time in my life so I’d be binge watching everything from season 1-4 (at the time you were only upto season 4) on repeat any chance I got, I didn’t have a dad to teach me things on cars so in a weird way you guys took me on that journey and I’ll be forever grateful for all your content and education over the years. I still remember how excited I was to hop on the train back in 2015/6 from cardiff station to Olympic park to see supergramps at Motorex, it was like a dream come true to meet marty that day, I still have my mcm shirt that I wore where you signed it, a year or so later with my red ps and my near on stock R31 Skyline I drove down for MCM Nats, met Moog and had a good yarn with you, I wish I still had that car, equipped with Moogs signature on the boot lip and all
I was laid up with a broken arm in 2015 when I started binging your channel - has it really been 9 years?? Appreciate all of the work y'all put in to this.
Without doubt the thing which makes your channel better than EVERY other youtube channel out there, is the creativity. And you guys just have so much fun with it. It's infectious, it reminds your viewers to just be a bit sillier every single day and not let life get you down, or take anything too seriously. You guys are legends, thanks for the good times!
The original version of Moog's Mini is my personal highlight. It was that series that got me into MCM after someone posted it in a classic mini Facebook group I was in. I was instantly hooked and I've watched every single video since. I love how genuine the Marty and Moog are and that it's as much about the friendship and having fun as it is about the cars.
I've been watching you guys nearly 13 years now!!! MADNESS, I'm 27 years old, half my life I've been watching! keep doing what your doing! can't wait to see what 2024 brings 😎😎😎
1:00:41 I had been waiting for this moment so much... Miss daisy has been one of my very favorite builds of MCM... Absolutely loved it... Its been such an amazing journey with you guys.. Thank you so much.... ❤❤
Can't believe I've been watching you guys for more than 10 years. Great timing of the video, my MCM "turbo flow" t-shirt arrived today! Love the honesty, friendship and care you guys put into everything you do!
FARK. Way to make us feel old..
congratulations, watching from the start.. 42 now haha
I can't imagine a world where MCM doesn't exist. The quality of content is like no other and the best part imo is how you guys never take stuff to seriously. Here's to another awesome 16 years. Cheers lads.
Simply awesome, so many smiles along the way all rolled up into one video. Thanks for them all.
I really miss the old content at Marty's mum's house. It felt relatable and so fun. I hope his mum is well and maybe you guys could do a fun video at his old house??? If not i totally understand! Thanks for all your guys efforts and content!
Not 100% sure, but think some fans found the house. Between that and usual issues neighbors probably had with excessive cars and car stuff going on.
@@I_Love_Quokkasunfortunately not only found the house but stole from it, too
Thanks for all the tips and entertainment you have provided to 16 years. I have been watching since nearly the beginning.
I am watching your videos for many years now, bought lots of merch, listen to the awesome music tracks and the spirit has never changed. So many channels went from budget cars to super high end stuff...but not MCM.
Thank you and all the legends for inspire me and help to forget the daily shit.
Ive been watching since Martys Mums Driveway, and I still keep in mind those bog fumes! Gotta watch that! Lol thanks for the laughs over the years, and heres to many more!
Epic, you guys work so hard to entertain us, thankyou. Even at 63 years old I'm loving it!
Me too! I'm 62 and love everything MCM. Always thank my daughter for introducing me to these guys prob 13 years ago.
I’m a new viewer, but you’ve inspired me to learn about cars and say yes to my aunts Ford Fiesta project. I’m gonna bring the little nugget back to life. Keep loving and living your best lives 👍
I've been with you guys since the beginning! Part of the inspiration for starting my own channel!
Thanks guys for everything over the past 16 years Kei to the city is my favorite. I still watch it when I feel sick or a little depressed. It always makes me feel better
We're being spoiled with these 1+ hours of video.
Great content as always! Been here since Miss Daisy and since then you have been my biggest inspiration in the car community.
Hoping for more great years to come!
Sending love from Sweden!
American here, Been watching since 2012 when I got my first smart phone. Just had joined the military and your shows help me get through lonely times being away from home. We’ve all changed and yet we’re still here.
Came across you guys about 12 years back. I remember your content would always be playing in the background as I would study for exams by myself or be struggling to fall asleep at night at prevent me from feeling stressed out etc. So thank you guys for being so brilliantly passionate about everything you guys do we fed off your guys energy and passion. Im sure many of us can agree that we could quite easily binge watch your guys content as car enthusiast and as mighty car mod fans!
Here's to another 16 years of maaadddddddddness from you legands! Didnt think you guys would also turn in to the worlds best 4wd channel, but im fkn loving it!
Bro I've been watching since I was 8, and you guys have been such a big part of why I love cars! Happy 16th Anniversary MCM!
Can't pin down an exact year, but I remember seeing your first ever intro sequence so it must have been the first few videos since I subscribed. Can't think of any other channels I've been watching for that long. Hope you keep it up, the thing you've created is just incredible, the community. Your vids are part of why I mod and fix my own cars. That shot of moog dancing holding the CD drive perfectly smooth and level still cracks me up.
As a 61 year old you bring light abs entertainment to my somewhat pedestrian retirement. From you I have subscribed to the Skid Factory and Benny's Custom Works and has made me appreciate the wider world of fellow automotive talent. Thankyou so much for the less mundane....
thanks for 16 years boys you 2 are now like friends to me
I’ve not been along for the ride for the full 16years but what a ride! Congratulations guys. Always a laugh and interesting. Love your work and your passion👍
I don't know if it's because it was around the time I started watching you guys or not, but gramps has always had a special spot in my heart. I also learnt so much about Subarus in that series. Thank you guys for doing what you do, and sharing the adventure with the world.
Feel like the oldest person watching at 44 years old...damn! Have my Cheryl's big box from the GLW for Christmas, my GTI on the drive and love watching you guys. Missed you at Le Mans but am there every year so hope you'll be back or in the UK soon! Keep up the good work to the whole team, you make a difference to us all
Big thanks for three lots of long form content in the last couple of weeks boys ❤
Attaway fellas! I've been watching for most of that time from right here in NSW, Australia, and have loved every minute of it.
From the driveway days to the current workshops and international trips, you guys are an absolute inspiration. I've had many cars in this time, settling on an i20N and a sketchy 2TR-FE/manual Hiace van (one day to be turboed) as my workshop hack.
Seeing you guys get the little Hondas and the Yammie MT inspired me to get back into bikes, too, which I'm very much enjoying.
All the best to you guys in your current and future endeavours. Can't wait to see what's waiting just over the horizon.
I found out about you guys because of Roadkill. The one time I screamed at my T.V. was because of one of your episodes. I've learned so much about cars from you all but THAT DAY was that the spark plug seals come with the valve cover gaskets. I changed spark plug wires twice because i thought that was keeping the oil off of the top of the engine. Did the gasket job the next week. Keep up the awesome work... love it!
I saw Turbos and Temples when I was 16 ish and it influenced my love of cars. Now been a fan for over 10 years and just straight loving all the content you guys produce. Can't wait to see what the future holds.
You two were one of the first automotive channel I subscribed to back over a decade ago now, and I'm still enjoying every video the mcm team puts out. You guys are awesome! Thank you.
Thank you guys for all yall do yall have made my week every week for 5 to 6 years now thank you
just amazing guys, I can't even remember when I started watching but it feels like my entire youth. You've given everyone so much just doing what you do best. Thank you for everything you do.
Been watching you guys for 11 years now and can honestly say discovering your videos really helped me get through a shit 2013. Mad respect to you guys for keeping true over the years, being fun, authentic and educational is what has always set you guys apart. Much love
Well done Marty & Moog! You've given us so much joy. Thank you and please keep going
Happy 16th anniversary .🎉 I haven’t watched for that long. I’ve watched for the past 4 years . Seen some epic builds . Keep up the good work 🤟
Ot's heartwarming to see that the 2sxy era is just as emblematic to you as it is to me.
I was driving a white 1.5 automatic Lancer right as the season came out, probably what made mcm click with me the most, seeing the rear brake swap just opened my eyes.
From doing my first oil change to my first oil spill on my parent's garage all the way to today being an autodetailer, you guys have been such a big and positive influence in my life and have have done nothing but fill everyone with knowledge and entertainment, everything else just goes IN THE BIN!
Thank you for all the years of company and for the many more to come.
I will one day detail one of your cars, I can promise you that ❤
Hell yeah brothers!
Glad I'm here to be part of this.

Alot of awesome memories watching your channel grow to where it is now. I'm proud to say that I was here during the early TRD Laser days 😂 but one of the things thats overlooked is the quality music that Moog and Marty makes for their channel! It's quintessentially unique that if you hear it you just know that it's them. Well done fellas love your work and here's to more success for many years to come.
Been watching since Moog's head looked like a carrot. Love you guys! Happy impossible anniversary!
Such memories... Has it really been 16 years? It feels like such a part of my life. My cars have been so much more fun as a result. My kids, and I, grew up watching. Greatly enhance our lives.
Guys, been watching you for over 10 years, and I can't wait to keep watching you guys with my future kids someday!
So many great episodes and moments over the years!
Love you guys , keep up the awesome work and keep making awesome memories ❤
Marty and Moog, we love you guys. Enjoy the couple of weeks off. Peace, thanks for the 16 years.
I've been watching since the driveway days and, while I love what you guys did for Keegan, my favorite episode was definitely Kei to the City. It's been a huge inspiration for me to want to visit Japan.
Happy 16th anniversary MCM! ❤😊
Luv it! Many thanks ❤❤️
Guys I can't believe I have been watching for fifteen and a half years. Still my favourite UA-cam channel ever. My youngest son was in Westmead children's hospital for a bone marrow transplant, i hadn't left the hospital for two months when my oldest son got tickets to driving Miss daisy. It was the first time i had left the hospital for two months. My picture with Moog is still my Facebook picture to this day.
Thank you so much for all your efforts over the years. It’s great to see so many inspired youth commenting. Us older folk (54 here) also love you guys. Thank you.
Love you guys ! MCM forever!!!
I was introduced to MCM when my dad shared the pod filter mythbusting video in 2012. A day or two's catching up on the previous 4 years videos and I've been hooked ever since. It's mad to think since I've been watching your videos I've had 2 kids, one has started high school yet I can watch an early vid and it feels like it was barely a few months ago. You’ve literally been a 1/3 of my 36 years on this this earth, here's to many more. 🍾🥂
16 years ago who would have thought 2 guys from Australia would have one of the best automotive UA-cam channels. Here's to 16 more!
An amazing journey. From two young guys messing about on a driveway putting "black" on trims to being the biggest car show on UA-cam and the greatest 4x4 driving channel of course!
Your wholesome friendship thru all the years and real and humble approach to life is what I love most about MCM. Here's to many more adventures. 🥂
Thanks guys. I'm relatively new to the channel - I don't know why UA-cam never threw you guys at me earlier but I'm here now, and it's nice to have 16 years of videos to watch through. My biggest revelation watching you guys is the process of tuning - it is so regularly overlooked by other channels, but watching the process of bumping up power on the dyno - while also taking into account drivability and reliability has been really eye opening, and in just a few videos drastically changed my perception and understanding of how engines work. Showing the process is very important, and it's what you guys are great at.
I have been watching almost since the beginning, barely knowing English back then. Thank you guys for all the years of mad nuggets and all the fun.
Coming home from school putting mcm on youtube and dreaming of the day i could start modifying my car like you guys, that was over 10 years ago and im still coming back from work watching you guys, things havent changed, keep up the top work boys, thank you for being an inspiration for so many ❤️
I’ve grown up with you guys in my life for the last 16 years thank you so much for all you have done and given to this whole community I’m sure there are thousands more like myself who feel the same much love from the uk 🇬🇧🇦🇺
You probably won't see this comment, but I've been watching MCM since around 2010. I got by chance my own L500 Cuore and with some help from mates I learned how to spray paint, install central locking, wire a stereo with an Amp & sub, redo the backing of my door panels. Thanks for all the videos and memories gents all the best for the next 16 years
The zombie Pathfinder was I think the 1st episode I saw. Loved it, been onboard ever since
way back!
Im 39 and I have been watching you guys from the start and is the one show I watch religiously, plus my kids are now joining the journey and watching with me. Cant imagine a world without MCM and thanks for the good times and memories.
From a 10 year old kid to nearly 23 years old and restoring $1,000,000+ Porsches for a living, you guys have been there the whole time! Much love for the whole MCM crew and accoutrements all the way from NYC!
Congrats to 16th years of awesomeness. I don´t know how long ive been watching mcm but i think about alomost 15 years now. Enjoying you guys since then and hope for much more to come. this year will be great, getting a better job buying a new car after not own a car for 4 years now.
I've been watching you boys since i was about 15, getting excited to buy my first car. Watched everything ever since. Now 28 has been great watching the MCM vehicles evolve along with mine. Started with a wagon on chopped springs and all the standard tacky p plate mods to now a properly built XR6T. Cheers, boys, for all the good times over the years and hopefully many more to come 🤙
Ive been watching your videos since the cressida build all those years ago, our family chariot growing up was a cressida so i always wanted one growing up for my first car which is what i got for my p plates (10 years since then and ive had 8 of them in various build levels plus an array of other toyotas and nissans from the 80s and 90s) . You guys have been an inspiration to a whole generation and generations to come for the car scene
Proud to say that I have been there for all of these moments, I pursued a career as a mechanic, loved it and got great at it, and while driving my car there is always a bit of You, in me.
Thank you so much for everything you and your team do for us !
Hey guy just wanted to stop by and thank you for everything y’all do for everyone in the car community. Y’all have inspired me to get out and wrench in my car since 2009. I was 12 then and now I’m pushing towards 28 and still enjoy mcm content. Meeting you guys when y’all came to La was a dream come true and I look forward to seeing y’all again when y’all decide to come back to Cali. Again thank you guys for everything and I can’t wait to see what y’all have in store for 2024. I have a couple pictures I would love to share with y’all, that I have from the La event if you guys are interested in seeing, regardless much love guys 🙏🏽
man so many memories, never change MCM. The nuggets and the background score , japan episodes are the best !
I've been watching you guys since my 20s. I turn 42 Sunday. That is mind-blowing.
This episode made me feel happy yet sad. Happy-sad? Is that a thing? Well, it is now
I wouldn't be the man I am today without you guys. Thank you for guiding all of us. I would have never started my company without your videos
On behalf of the interballs, thank you Mighty Car Mods for creating hundreds of hours of happiness for millions of viewers ❤
Have been following MCM from date one and its has always put a smile to my face. You guys are so genuine, down to earth and honest, its inspiring. God bless you both and the growth that you will no doubt have in the years ahead. You guys are awesome, and would love to see you do a MCM meet in Sydney have always wanted to go to one.
I've been watching since Marty's mom's driveway. It's amazing how much you guys have evolved. I can't wait to see what you guys have in store for 2024.
