You could of got a NISSAN R35 GTR for less than £40000
Lets grid drop spin
What’s the colour of Nigel? Reminds me of my old BMW730i
Alex why don't you do a colab with life of Tom, he wants to do a track day in his Mercedes, woukd be good to see u doing a colab with someone different
Matt is so good on camera. Would love to have him on channel again. He seems like a genuine bloke
Yep, us hobbits are usually jovial people
A shitbox named after me.
He's better than that wank Taylor.
Matt reminds me of a younger bearded Rorschach, not in demeanor, just appearance.
I haven't seen someone write the word bloke in years but I agree will be good to see this bloke again
The computer scene where Matt was googling how much Alex makes was hilarious, I burst out laughing 🤣
Such a good addition to the video 😂
‘How to spell porshee” haha that whole segment had me crying
That was great haha
Same 😂😂😂😂
Hahaha that one got me good too 😂
Matt is an absolute legend, he has looked after my cars for a number of years and is one of the best out there.
The smile on Alex's face when he says "Nigel, my 993" is priceless. Nice work pursuing your dreams, Alex! Much respect we all know its years of effort that got you there aside from the fun and jokes!
Yeah, very nice work buying a broken piece of junk
@@TheRealCatof Lmao someone is mad and definitely jelly.
What do you drive my boy, hm? A tesla 3 probably? A hyundai sonata? A bicycle?
Calling ANY 993 Porsche a piece of junk, even if it's broken (which this one isn't), just goes to show what an absolute clown you are. Keep it up.
If you saw the last video of Alex driving her was one big smile from Start to finish 😊
@@TheRealCatofmaybe you can't afford a piece of junk anyway.
@@gustiwidyanta5492 You're right, I don't want to waste money on a piece of junk that's slower than a Kia.
We definitely need more of Matt on the channel, he seems like such a great bloke
Exactly that!
Since Alex got a Porsche, I have a feeling that we will see him often lmao
I’m looking forward to more 993 content. This was great. Matt looks after my Porsche and I honestly wouldn’t take it anywhere else. A real gent, clearly a Porsche fan, very knowledgeable and honest.
It’s hard to beat the ultimate knowledge of an expert
The best argument any performance marque specialist always has was here at 23:15 "Why don't you take it to Porsche main dealer." Everyone laughs because you know how insanely expensive it would be and that a friend at a good independent is golden.
This is just a British episode of hoovies garage 😂
The car Warlock
Haha - absolutely spot on!
What a compliment!
Alex is far more entertaining than mr money bags hoovie lol
of what?🤷
Alex is looking like a full on 6 footer next to Nigel and Matt. 🙃 (Tom Cruise managed this next to Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man).
Used Rennworks for my cars over the last few years. Matt has amazing knowledge on these cars. No one better IMO
What i learned from my years as a Porsche mechanic. Air cooled Porsches: No oil under it = no oil in it. You're fine, Alex.
Matt has done well to put up with the Dad Jokes every time he was pointing something out,guy has the patience of a saint
Matt was brilliant, taking all the digs and jokes in stride 😄
The googling bit was pure gold, perfect edit.
200k miles and nearly 30 years old that car looks mint. Great buy. One of my favourite 911's
I've seen this car a few times, as I half know the previous owner. That's a great price for the car, bought from a proper Porsche enthusiast!
Oh yes just in time for dinner
Spag bol here
Dinner at 6pm??
@davidmarques8448 it's not 6pm everywhere 😂
@@davidmarques84486pm? For me it's still 3:50pm now. I'm thinking about eating some cookies 😂😂😂😂😂
@@beany1987 not for me for sure ahah
Holy shit, the edit with the "How to spell porshee" and googling the channel income had me rolling. The porsche mechanic seems like a good chap, we like him.
Been a massive Porsche enthusiast since I was 11 yrs old, owning a 924, 944S and a 986 Boxster. I am so happy to see you with the 993 and to see how happy it makes you. Even though I'm not a youtuber, now in my 30s and just have a normal underpaid 9-5 job, it does give me hope that one day I too can own an air cooled 911 (930 or 964) hopefully before I'm 50 but we'll see. Good job Alex, fair play!
'how to spell porshee...' LMFAO! Comedy gold!
That google screen was hilarious! Brilliant video as always. More Porsche content along with the sheds please!
Best part of the UA-cam channel is showing every problem with the cars you buy and showing the true cost of fixing them, love all the content❤️❤️
That's the most thorough and diligent inspection I've seen on the channel yet. Matt obviously knows his stuff. Top job!
I am so happy for you!
Eeveryone can see how happy you are at the end of the video when the mechanic / shop owner is telling you his final opinion and by the way he is a freaking awesome person!
We clearly are watching a 2020s variant of Top Gear here. It's great. Down to earth and the team chemistry is amazing. Keep it up guys. It's an addictive watch!
Matt is fantastic. You can see the passion and energy in him. Great work 👍
You could really see the confidence grow on Alex, as he was bigger than the mechanic for the first time in his life!
Loved this vid, super chill and Matt is so knowledgable! Great watching how methodical he was with checking Nigel over too!
A few more of this type of video along the way would be nice, Alex! A slightly higher tech to banter ratio makes a nice wee change 👍🏻
A genuine specialist who seems to actually care about the cars and customers he has, it just refreshing.
Matts my hero now , I fell in love with a 73 RS 2.7 at the age of 17, on both of my visits to the Porsche museum in Stuttgart there hasn’t been one on display 🙁
Well done mate you have blown it out the park on this one. Nigel is a beauty 🎉🎉 can't wait to see your plans with this one 👍👍
Great stuff, I admit to fast forwarding (I am that old) through the last Welsh driving video, but this was proper interesting - clearly very knowledgeable chap with so much experience, and Alex. Top content - more of this...
I love the fact Alex actually looked tall against Matt 😂
Now we all know the real reason he brought Nigel to Matt. lol
Congrats on the car you absoluty deserve it: i had a challenge suggestion for you guys, you should do a roadtrip to somewhere, but you gotta do it in your 2nd ever car that you owned as we all know the 1st car is a shit box but the 2nd car is wherer we got smarter.
I'll have you know my Ford Escort 1.6D was plenty shitty. How dare you suggest I ever learn anything!
My first car was a 1.2 clio.
My second car was a 1.2 clio
We don't all learn :)
My first car was a 1.6 Golf mk4, it was faultless. My second car was a 1992 Defender, it hijacked my life and burned all my money. Thinking about it, similar to my love life.
@@AlexLR just like Rory XD
Alex: “I mean I do sh1t myself a lot”
Matt: “there ya go”
😂😂
The editing of Matt on the computer was brilliant 😂
I'm really glad to see your channel subs are going so well. This is the kind of channel I like to see. The high end supercar scene on UA-cam is saturated, and they're just not very interesting any more. They're too refined, full of driving aids and frankly, they have too much power. They're also unobtainium. It's good to see stuff that is actually possible to own and able to be worked on.
back in the early 2000s i was working for a Porsche body centre as a driver i got to drive one of these 911,s the owner had had a few changes made it revved like some one ripping silk the gear change was sublime what a car .alex has got a really good buy mileage is irrelevant .how i would love to own one of these .
Ive had a play also in a few .
The outsides a bit muh and doesnt really have the presence of later cars or the in your face of 80`s cars or the class of 60`s . Its in my eyes near the worst of the lot which is a shame . The engines felt lumpy and harsh , i didnt get silky smooth more tractor than anything else as they clatter along at normal speeds being just not a nice place to be . The weight is at the point of unforgiveable with the arse end about to snap out at any point when you do get to give it a bit and unrecoverable when it does so kudos to alex for the 4x4 and it really isnt a bad idea . What i could never forgive was the interior which is only a slight step up from a morris marina in layout and quality . It just doesnt cosset you in wealth or sport , its just a massive nothingness and theres feck all to show you are ment to be in something special . I climb out my supra and the dash is a parts bin of toyota granted but its wrap around well thought out which is impressive ..... but the germans didnt bother . Its a real shame it really is . Theres no end of other cars such as this such as evos and gtrs which also let down beyond forgiveness so its not alone . Maybe im odd in that i get to see the car when i walk upto it so an interior really does matter as thats the main part i interact with and use . Drive a decent jag or aston and the interiors are really part of the experience of knowing you are in something special . If you can get in then a TVR sorta shows the point perfectly .
Just not for me . Theres so so much better out there for the money . Each to there own though , some people are feeders for fatties and happy .
This lad knows his stuff and is very good on Camera please make more vids with him
Always good to open youtube and see a new auto alex vid 💯
What u love about high mileage cars is they usually haven’t got to high mileage without being properly looked after, so 9/10 times you’re getting a belter!
Great Video Bud 👍👍Matt is a really honest person 👍👍
Good stuff. It’s always interesting to hear a real expert talk about something they know and love.
Great video guys! Well enjoyed that. Matt’s a great dude
Alex I've followed you since the beginning of Car Throttle. You're like a household fixture. Jeremy Clarkson for those that don't pay TV license, but younger and more appealing to the yoots like me at 35. Keep it up mate. I look forward to your videos each week more than the Coronation Street special as a kid (because I got to stay up past 7.30). You deserve to be on TV and I think you'll get there 👍
Another great episode with good humor. Can wait to see Nigel being worked on and get upgraded. Also Matt is such a nice guy! Kind, passionate with his job...
Congratulations on buying your dreamcar Alex!!! You deserve it!!
Your doing amazing! Love to watch your video's after a long day at work and
Love to listen to the podcasts when i'm working on my car
Matt is an absolute legend he keeps my Porsche on the road in the most cost effective way his passion for Porsche is unmatched and good coffee for customers whilst waiting. Sam is also a master mechanic who works on Porsche at Renn Work Porsche!
I haven’t been on UA-cam for a bit and decided to pop into your channel and wow ! The last time I watched you you there on maybe 60k ? And had just started , well done Alex !
I’m loving this Porsche project so far. Need more
this was amazing with the perfect amount of humor. rocking it alex! RennWorks seems amazing
Brilliant, love a good news video detailing you bought a decent car! The porsche 911 has been one of my dream cars too.
Please dont make thumbnails like this one. No your 993 is not broken. We would gladly watch the video without attention seeking thumbnails. Other than that, congrats on the car!
Hey alex, I've been a good follower for some time now. But I did not know that you were also Porsche enthusiast. Congratulations on your 993! definitely a bucket list vehicle to own. I wish for you though to do a video on the 944 that you flipped. I myself currently owned a 944 s2. And I would love to just hear your thoughts on the transaxle era. Cheers! 🥂
Matt is a proper nice bloke isn't he.
Love to see an expert at work. Hope to see Matt again.
Always nice to see an honest expert at work. And more so on such a wonderful car
This is my favourite episode yet! Some comedy gold in there, and for once a good purchase 😅
Always great banter on this channel.
The 993 turbo front bumper will fit on your C4. Tony Hatter, the man who designed the 993 has a turbo front bumper fitted to his own 993 C4!
Fantastic news!
Been impatiently waiting for another video, I’d watch every day
I do like that Porsche ! Very happy for Alex that he managed to buy his dream car (and it's even good!)
Everythings a dream car when its a piece to camera ... I suspect if asked its really a 1984 targa but then i dont really get german cars so could be well off .
What a top bloke! Good find. Matt seems like he's your man for getting the car in shape. Very impressive guy
What a bloody knowledgeable guy Matt is, I love hearing proper experts speaking their trade.
And he looks a bit like Kevin Webster but younger, who is also a professional mechanic 😂
See you at shed fest in may Alex 👍🏼 My Brian the beetle is in the stands 😁
Great vid, smile on Alex face at the end was brill 😂
This is absolutely amazing, what a burst of positivity this whole video is. Well done to everyone!
You can't beat 'normal' blokes as it were talking stuff they know and love. Matt is a legend, if only everyone that had the knowledge and passion for the job they did!
Mat Armstrong aged a bit hasn't he, really did get hung up on those Porsches though 😂😂
Decent vid 👍🏻 And Rennsport are somewhat legendary for quality .
I love how Alex's face lights up with genuine joy when he gets told he has bought a great version/condition of his dream car 👌 car guys can relate
You’ve got to take those calipers back to silver. That red clashes like hell with the Arena Red paintwork!
And yes. A TURBO bumper will fit straight on.
People are also way way over-valuing this car. It’s a 35k car if you ask me. 38k on a miracle day. And a dealer would pay 32k. And before everyone goes mental: I’m an ex-Porsche specialist. And 993 expert.
The porche guy is so knowledgeable. Really impressive
Drinking game, when you hear "exactly that" take a shot! See how far you get 😂
Phew! Always exciting getting an inspection on a new car!
Love the colour, Arena Red pops in strong sunlight!!
I really liked this kind of fun and simple video👍
You know it’s a good day when there’s an auto Alex video out.
19:56 that zoom in for the engine rebuild 😂.
Matt seems like a really genuine decent guy! Be good to see more of him on the channel!
Fit some non voided wishbone bushes from a r32 to miles it makes a huge difference to the way it turns in and tyre wear
Matt is a proper legend. Great video and Nigel is in safe hands!
I really like Matt, I hope you go through him for any and all works on your beauty! He has great Personality!
Really enjoyed the edit where Matt is appraising the car, thank you editor
"in the mornings it's quite floppy"
Side smirk from Alex
what a cool guy, you must have him on camera as much as possible!!!
"Thats it" 😂 funny how people latch on to little ticks, but tbf Matt obviously knows his stuff and I'm guessing will be happy to work on Nige a bit when needed
I was today years old when I learned how to establish how old a tyre is. I knew about the fitting numbers, but seeing the age of manufacture was pretty cool!
Phew! Well done Alex. Lovely looking car.
Matt is a natural on camera, nice guy i would like to see him on the channel a lot more.
It is always a joy to listen to an expert at work.
Matt's am absolute pleasure and his passion bleeds through on camera. Legend
I like Matt seems to know his stuff and he’s down to earth
Matt is a great lad. Not often you see a premium brand mechanic with a down to earth approach
What a sound fella Matt is. Obviously knows what he's talking about and really reassuring when he's talking
👍🏼
What a beast, My dad had a 964 Turbo in Yellow. They must be worth a bomb now he sold in like 2010 originally came from Finland 🇫🇮
Great video, Matt's like a young Uncle Albert 😂
So refreshing to see a Porsche more instead of bmws all the time 😂
I used to find at main dealers half the time they don’t clean off the old oil after seals replaced.
Id do the track rods and bushes either powerflex or pagid if want oem ride. Keep topping the oil up until till it gets too bad. Brake clean off the bay once a week and wash with it running and warm.
Billy bargin car ❤
"It doesn't appear to be a 200k mile car!" - I can't think of another channel where those words would need to be said out loud. Great buy Alex!
When I saw the first few seconds I was genuinely heartbroken for you. But turns out it's nowhere near as bad as expected. Thank god. Glad it's not going to kick your arse too much to get it right
When Alex is nervous about something, anyone else noticed he can't stand still and does a sort of shuffle, great car Alex and a very knowledgeable Porsche specialist to know.
