    The content these guys put out is second to none. The knowledge that Chris has is mind blowing and good old Rob clearly works incredibly hard to source the required parts along with his superb commentary. Thank you both for such entertaining videos.

    Try not to get too obsessed with UA-cam numbers and comments etc. I appreciate you don't want to waste your time on making videos that don't get lots of views but try not to overthink it too much. You've got a loyal following here and I for one watch every video even if it's not always my cup of tea. Keep up the good work guys and don't become a slave to the Algorithm!

    Seeing it in the background, the MGF just sold again on car and classic auction site for £7250, wonder if it’s now in the hands of someone who’ll enjoy it, hope so.
    Another great video, thanks to both of you and enjoy the weekend, thank you.

    Rob, I do like the system you have developed to manage the (extremely complicated!) episode schedule. If it’s actually on a wall-chart/gap progress type chart I’m sure some of your subscribers would be fascinated to know how you manage all of it! ( I know I would!) 🙏👍😊

    Another great video 👍
    Re the steering wheel, I'd definitely change it. I spent 28 yrs as an hgv driver ('90-'18/18-46 yrs old), and my pet hate was manky steering wheels, especially when the vehicle was double shifted and the other driver didn't take his greasy gloves off to shunt the vehicle around in depots etc. I used to go through a pack of anti bacterial wipes a week on the wheel alone in that job. I'd really appreciate a good clean wheel if I bought it👍🙂
    No need to worry about your output Rob: For what it's worth, I reckon you've got a great mix of content and look forward to 5pm onwards Monday/Wednesday/Friday, plus the current Sunday bonus. Cheers 😁👍

  • @thefamilyrobbo
    @thefamilyrobbo 2 роки тому +4

    ST steering wheel should be an upgrade as it's higher spec. So yes to that.
    Time lapse fine in moderation.
    At the end of the series, especially with these long termers, might be nice to include some footage from the start or even a little montage. I, for one, sometimes forget how they were at the beginning.
    Great work as always. Thank you
    😊👍

  • @richardjones5255

    There are two ways to look at the issue you spoke about. It is understandable that some want to see the problem go straight from problem to fix, some of us know that life is not, make that far too much, not like that. There is just too much in the box labelled hard work, between wanting and getting there. Getting panels and bumpers to fit, is not easy. Nothing in life is ever easy, doing it right is hard, it takes effort, and it takes time and skill. This one is now coming on nicely, after all the other projects, have stepped aside.

    Rob, Chris, the ST has been transformed from when you first showed it us on the channel.
    You have done so much work and it really shows. I would change the steering wheel especially as you already have a leather replacement,
    Looking forward to hearing the numbers on this one.

    I would swap the steering wheel as you have a good one in stock which will clean up. Cracking content putting a 3D jigsaw back together. Modern vehicles are very complex, not like the 60’s and 70’s vehicles I have worked on. Back then rust was the main issue.

    Perfect timing! Just taking the front bumper off ours between downpours, for some paint - so some helpful hints & tips in there. The steering wheel should be leather anyway, so a leather care kit should fix it. Ours is a Red, I prefer the look, the Black looks like a tart's lipstick with that grill - but that's just me. Great video as always!

    know how, all the best to you both Mark.

    I gotta say it's fantastic to see the Fiesta again. Totally forgot what a stupid design the scuttle panel is having to take the headlights out, which I remember doing the same to do the wiper motor on my wife's one. The light at the end of the tunnel is so close so keep at it and definitely change the steering wheel, and even keep the ST badge 👍🏻
