This week, Will's stolen Edwin's first ever Project Car, a modified Mazda MX-5 which has been sat abandoned since its turbo blew up 4 years ago. Edwin can have any parts he needs but he's got just 24 hours to get it running again and if he fails the challenge, he has to pay for all of it!

Please tell me there's a part 2 right??
Please tell me there's a part 2
Help I'm confused. Why is the Miata have an "18 Valve" engine but for 18 valves spread across 4 cylinders it would 4.5 valves ;-;.
Is there something I'm missing?? Or does it say 16 Valve but it looks like 18.
Oh nvm it says 16...
nah man after u screwed edwin so hard on that?
24:24 so what is a better car for 500? And for 3-4 grand? Please do tell! 🤞
I demand an extension to 48 hours. You did my boy dirty with the 24.
In his defense, he even got short changed on the 24. He said the car needs a "day's work". Not a day's work including the parts overhead he knew he needed beforehand. He could've easily finished, had the clutch been provided for him in advance, as he knew he was going to need it.
yea, give the man his other 24
@@AnalogSins did you watch the video? he got provided a turbo, and a clutch lmao
Its youuu!! Always funny to see youtubers watching other youtubers. Kinda remind you that theyre also just humans (i know...big surprise but i hope you get what i mean 😅)
They didn't even provide any beers
There are very few channels where I want to like, subscribe and comment JUST to support the channel... but this is one. I wish more channels had your energy. No clickbait, no never-ending cliffhangers, just real cars with real dudes and good comedy. Thank you for making this. Much love x
They use $, not £ in the titles. That's clickbait for Americans.
@@samuelgarrod8327 I'll give you that one. Excellent pedantry.
@@samuelgarrod8327 Wow take them to jail and throw away the key how could they do such a horrifying act
@@BarbecuedPossumWas just saying. Thought that was the point of the comment section. Am I wrong?
@@samuelgarrod8327 I think, to be fair to @BarbecuedPossum , they were just saying too. I think in general most people are just saying. Just saying.
Edwin remembering there’s degreaser in his boot from 5 years ago yet I can’t even remember yesterday 😂
i think the guy keeps a bottle of that stuff under his pillow tbh
Smoke less weed mate.
I hear that's how dementia works 😆
"I love farming shows" went unnoticed, and it was a great line.
If you put the time where something happens, it will automatically create a link to that time in the video, e.g., 1:11
I didn't get it
@@blungus123 Cow piss
@@jgreenjeans 2:54 , you're welcome
Spoiler below : (not the car part)
I hope you do a part 2 and finish this MX5 / get it running. Could even be a mid week upload 😊
Cheers for the spoiler 😂

@@stevencuenca1980 I changed it
@@K0ALA. Haha you're all gud bruv... Only messing around..🇦🇺😜🍻
I kind of chuckled at the "mo'powah" reference considering how Donut is in a state of self destruction right now.
Self destructing like their wrx
@@seavixen125 Turning up the boost on an EJ is sort of the engine equivalent of accepting a big corporate buyout. Lots of fun for a short while but will absolutely blow up in your face every time. 🤠
Get her up on the lift, she'll be right.
Hoonigan I am sad about.. donut was always shit imo.
What is happening with Donut?
Mannnn doing all that work single handed and by the looks of it you knew how to do it all without a walk through makes you a proper car guy! Well done!
Ikr and they STILL SCREWED HIM! Poor edwin bro
And a night after having a ‘good time’ at his girlfriend’s
I'm so used to seeing these types of videos end in a "just in the nick of time" manner where they're magically saved by some outside force at the la st moment, that I was genuinely shocked to see Edwin lose; it was refreshing!
surprised he gave up with 30 to go... must ave been specific fuel fittings he didnt have
Refreshing and genuine. That's why I love this channel, and All the Gear. If they don't meet the goal, they lose. So many other channels would move the goalposts.
@@JW-qf2fxit just wasn't safe to start it with all that fuel in the engine bay. It would never have been dry enough in 30 min, can't risk a fire
Man, if it hadn't been for that fuel leak at the end... I hope we'll eventually get to see this car run an drive after the monumental effort Edwin put in. I also hope we find out more about the bottle of hooch up in the corner atop the electrical conduit(?) @10:22
how dafuq did you even spot that?? xD
As somebody who lived in southern Spain for many years here are some helpful tips for dealing with the hot weather:
- stay in the shade
- turn on your air conditioning that you have in your house
- jump in the local outdoor pool that you have on your housing estate
- drink lots of ice cold lager at illegal late night car meets on the beach
- ride a motorcycle in shorts and flip flops
- shut down the whole country every day from 3pm til 5pm and also the entire month of August
No one in the UK has air conditioning in their house
Woosh @@mattparkin7224 (also almost every member of my family has air conditioning, SE UK)
Sounds like a plan
The final boss of "No shit sherlock"
😂🤣
Love the video! Can we have an extension to the 24 hours please? Would be good to see it running. In response to the comment that MX5s aren't good: I haven't driven an NA, NB or NC so I can't comment on those but I have owned a 2020 ND2 for 3.5 years and after 31,000 miles, 2 long European road holidays and 17 track days I can say that my MX5 is fantastic, especially when I compare it to the cost of other cars of the same age/mileage. Maybe an idea for a video would be to compare an early MX5 with other cars you could have bought for the same price from the same year as the MX5 when new.
Hi love your content, would you ever buy a project to do up and make videos on?
That Top Gear Shed reference was incredible
What kind of nerd would find those interesting?🤣
The labels still attached to Wills shirt is typical TG!
Edwin is the kind of guy to name his tools
owh yes
@@hexgraphica”this is Geoffrey this is Stephen..” “get on with it >:(“
Safety issues like fuel spills shouldn't count for time. If the unit burns down the channel is impacted. Rushing around spilled vapor can only go badly.
I think a second chance.
They need to deduct time sleeping and eating and give him like 5 hours to finish it with the fuel fix being a freebie, then he can get half his money back.
I agree, I hope next video is a second chance
Man, this would have been too cool if it was an actual 24h livestream! 🤣🤣
That was a classic James May moment at 20:17 😂
What kind of nerd would find those interesting.....
Look what you’ve done to my bloody shed man!
Out of the auto alex collective, i think you two if im honest are the most interesting to watch both as people and in terms of content. And thats saying something as i subscribe and enjoy all 3 channels!
18 year old Edwin was a master with zip ties 😂
I swear not. I was thinking you should do this video as revenge for the X5. Thx me in advance. 😊 And u should get Alex to do this to Phil, Alfred, Miles, John and all his cars
Literally what I was thinking 😂
I was thinking this too but I thought Will would use the white on white E36 from car throttle.
@@saibattu7745 That would be cool. And should secretly do it with Jack's 924 and Ethans SMX
Really enjoy your channel fellas, it's the grounded approach I like the most.. Not too cocky and just basically honest and having fun, taking us along for the ride.
If I was in your shoes, I'd be doing it in exactly the same way....
Cheers. ❤
That's not hot I grew up in an oven 😂😂😂
Fr same
It's not that hot, i grew up in a house fire
Was it really cool for you
_That's really cool for you! I'm glad for you!_
An oven?! Luxury! We had to make do with blast furnace and lick molten metal every morning.
The auto Alex multiverse is genuinely pushing out great video after great video on all channels.
the AUTOALEX multiverse is getting all the parts for FREE. Think about that. Ive got a car that needs repairs so I can get to work to support my family but Im struggling to afford it and Ive recently had a stroke oh some free stuff would be really nice at the moment
@@cherrytreegoats3409for ‘free’ but create videos and do a lot of marketing for those companies that give you ‘free’ stuff ;-)
@@cherrytreegoats3409 I'd rather see them fix cars that are needed by others.
Yeah pushing out a lot of Car vertical ads
@@cherrytreegoats3409 And?
Edwin living the All the Gear lifestyle.
Surprised they didn't join in for a sleepover!
For all the non brits on here.....31 degrees in the uk is unbearable because of the 90% humidity involved due to the enormous amount of ground water on the island, from a British guy that hates living in Spain because its too bloody hot!
I can't help but notice and love at 20:18 the James May shed reference! Wow!!!
Thats not even hot, i grew up in an air fryer
2:53 "I love farming shows" That took me a second and then I snorted my tea :D
Yeah i noticed it, but i didnt get it.
@@PatrickHemmesI may be mistaken because I'm not a native English speaker, but I think it's because it looks a lot like a cow giving birth.
@@PatrickHemmes I think its a reference to clarksons farm, specifically the sheep birthing.
@@PatrickHemmes immediately after the car starts pissing like a horse. I'm fairly sure that's what it referred to.
@@baoboumusic i thought because hes arms deep in his car, like in a cow 😂
Edwins transition from tools to sponsor ad was seemless. Also bottle of white wine on the wall in the back of the unit?
Brilliant 🎉just watched this one , what a great video ! I really thought you were going to get the car running , so much done in 24 hours ! Lots of hard work you guys are nailing it !
As someone who rebuilds alternators and starters for a living that spaf and crank job was quality
This has rapidly become one of my most loved channels.
Thanks so much for what you’re doing guys.
Gutted Edwin wasn’t able to finish this - was rooting for him all the way to the end
it is great to see the miata getting some attention
As someone who lives in a desert, here are some tips to keep cool when you're working in a hot garage.
Hydrate, you sweat to cool your body down, but it dehydrates the hell out of you super quick so keep yourself hydrated. I've got two insulated bottles filled with cool water whenever I'm in my garage in the summer.
Open the garage door. Use whatever breeze you can to get heat out of the garage.
Drape a wet tea towel on the intake side of a big box fan so that it pulls air through the towel cooling the air down. Fans normally don't cool you they just blow hot air off of you so you feel cool.
Hydrate
Cool your neck and hands and wrists. These are essentially your body's cooling vents because you've got a lot of blood flow closer to the skin. If you cool that down you can more efficiently cool down the rest of your body. You can do this by wrapping wet bandanas or evaporative cooling cloths around these parts of your body. For people with long hair like me, put your hair up. Having your hair down is kinda like blocking the cooling vent that is your neck.
Hydrate.
Also 31°C sounds like a delightful day in a low humidity desert like mine, but in a more humid place like the UK that sounds dreadful.
Unfortunately in the UK sweat doesn't cool you down much, it just makes you sticky and horrible adding to the uncomfortable feeling of being hot. It's too humid, even if the breeze feels cool your body struggles to maintain temperature making it feel hotter than it is.
Edit: ah I see you addressed that in a reply to yourself already
@Blazi3 yeah that's why hydration is important because your body will sweat regardless of whether or not it's helping.
Or just install an AC? Would've cost half as much as they'd spent on this one video...
@@jama211we’re all on the dole, we can’t afford no AC
If I see another Car Vertical sponsorship, I may explode. They're literally everywhere and, at this point, it's just annoying. I think there are more TH-camrs pushing Car Vertical than there are people actually using it. Please stop lads. Pleeeeeease.
(Otherwise, love the channel, the content and your vibe in general)
Yeah car vertical ads needs to stop
Hey at least they were pretty generous with the noodles, those Nongshim ones are great.
of all the "sub channels" that seemed to appear from various other main places.. these two are my fav. I like them, their dynamic, and the kind of work they do! they do the same kind of crazy shit with cars that I do!
That's not hot I live in Texas. I climb in an oven to cool down. Love the show thanks guys.
Next time you thinks it’s cold I can tell you it’s not. I climb in my freezer to warm up
If it's too hot, move. Don't be a typical dumb yank. Tornado Alley? Yeah, let's live there.
@@lbnewell23 ikr 😂 they had snow a few years ago and had a meltdown 😂 pun intended
I really hope you guys see this comment. Genuinely the best video you’ve uploaded I really hope it continues. Seeing you work on your own cars is much better, it feels more personal and more connected. Keep it up. But please do a full blown rebuild and project of the zafira if you could😬🤣
I think Edwin should've been given a few more hours because of that fuel leak, but hey. Good video! I'd like to see a challenge like that again but then check the car before the work is supposed to be done and make sure the parts are there. Time starts when Edwin grabs the first tool, good luck with that.
TDC has quickly become my favourite channel. Keep up the good work guys.
These shows make me smile so much. Where's the donate button? Sort it out lads ha!
Honest ending... but couldn't you pull the fuel pump relay and use some starting fluid to show it runs?
No need for the MX5 slander Edwin, just cause you’re hungry and broke now,.. think of all the owners ❤😂
Jdm eunos roadster is such a rare find. You've got to restore it, it's more then just teenage project car
I'm interested in what cars are comparable to an Mx5 at the price range! I have an NC and struggle to think of a RWD replacement for the £2-3k you can grab one for
How the hell do you youtubers work? There's ten different "24 hours to fix this car" videos within a month or two from every second or third car channel....
while its unfortunate, honestly it's refreshing to see that things go wrong sometimes. I feel like a lot of channels chop and edit their videos to always show a successful challenge, which is unrealistic. I'm keen to see the mx5 running again soon
Having recently fitted a flywheel and clutch to my itb'd roadster, not on a lift either I felt your pain lol
I do enjoy videos like this, taking an old "loved" but neglected car like this and resurrecting it, but wish there was a bit more camaraderie rather than leaving Edwin to do it on his own, teamwork makes the dream work as the saying goes.
Bro went from having a ‘great time’ at his girlfriend’s to working on a car he has procrastinated.
You should have given the man some food+parts so could work through the night instead of wasting time no sleep and cleaning. But anyway, good effort from Edwin!
“It was a place which seemed to be mostly full of sheds and what kind of nerd would find thoes interesting” JC 20:17
If you think the MX5 is a bad car can you make a video where you pick better cars for the same price as a decent 5 please 👍😜
Edwin's both love and hate of the MX 5 in equal measure! 🤣
Shin ramen cup noodles in 31 deg C.
Now you're Malaysian.
The mx5 slander is textbook “I’m too tall for this car” talk
You are brilliant. You absolutely made the right decision going solo. Congratulations 🎉
i WILL be that guy, anything under 35 is just pretty warm, not hot.
Edwin, mate, props to you for doing this. You got so much done in that 24 hours and on a more comfortable day, I think you could've done it.
Because that's your MX-5 and you love/hate it so much, I think getting it back to functioning condition would tell you what you want to do with it. Get the lads to help you, then go after him with his X5 on the coldest day of the year! The metal would've been a workable temperature for you here, but when its snowing outside? It'd be painful to work with.
I don't care what anyone says, 31 is hot to work on a car full stop. Coming from an Australian!
At least you don't have to deal with choking smoke because your country has decided to immolate itself.
We need part 2! Get it finished, get it running!
No manuals, not one!!
You are either mega clever. You have worked on this... master piece so much. You dont need one.
if that are your friends who's your enemy? the devil ?
So glad these guys made their own channel. Can't take any more alex.
You guys have very quickly become my favorite youtube channel! Since video 1 it's been quality 👌🏼
was that "Wow!" a refrence to Top Ground Gear Force? 🤣
Saying that the mx5 is a bad car should be sacrilege 😂
i would actually like to see you finish this. i want to get an MX5 myself and I KNOW there will be issues so this was a nice look into the workings
swear edwin has mechanic level knowledge, what a wizard
Whats that degreaser called and where can I buy it in the Netherlands
31C... That's not hot! I grew up in an oven.
I relate to this so much as someone with a turbo miata with a slipping clutch that I absolutely dread replacing again
Good job EDDY ❤keep up the great work 🎉
I'll buy a shirt when it's spelt Centre. :)
This is really cool to see, I have a 2001 Honda Prelude that is VERY sentimental to me and I will never let it go and it too needs love. You guys really should build a small shower in there and add an AC unit at least in the office space if not the entire unit. Minor things but they can make life so much better for you all in the new place! Great if you're married and get into a fight with the wife too, a home away from home :)
Another brilliant vid lads! Keep up the great work 🏁
im from germany. And 31C is hot as.
Hasnt been this hot here yet tho
I was born in freezer and I can confirm, 31c is hot.
Absolute top job as always fellas!looking forward to the next one
Missed merch opportunity, The TDC shirt should have the front of the miata engine at tdc printed onto it.
you guys did edwin dirty in this vid man, he spent 24 hours, replaced clutch, turbo, brakes, tyres, and ur gonna fuck him over a fuel leak at the end after u pair pissed away hours of his time on ur shopping shit? For shame guys. That was a dick move man, bro deserved those parts after u shafted him so hard
Some degenerate broke the side mirror on my mom’s Rav4, It doesn’t look like it got hit by a car but like someone just hit it. $1k for a new side mirror, can’t even find a used one on eBay for cheap.
I really wish you didn't fuck with him by wasting time. It would have been really cool to see how much he could actually do with the time
I feel sorry for Edwin. He worked so hard. I will come and finish the car for him.... next time I visit the UK.
"We're at top dead centre... and if you'd like to buy..." Classic. Made me lol. :)
Seamless ad integration 💨 😊
damn, for a mechanic you forget SO MUCH PARTS AND STUFF BRUVVVV wtf. Almost forgot the engine oil.....thats really bad. u shouldnt work on cars. you think you have engeneering skillls but you dont. So i see. pfffff
My much loved B5.5 wagon....is the same..Sat on the drive for years...can't seller her...rose was our wedding car...my dream car....for the budget I had....but just after spending £1000 on her...my pancreas decided you fat bar steward...and ate 60%... Of itself....spent every year I Will get her back on the road...but so far ....she is,still sat..and smashed starter oil change...but she sits lol
Why not take your watch off and glowes on 😊
At what time does the car turn blue? Your thumbnail shows a blue Miata. Why am I misled?
I love this. Pure recognition and determination, failure or not... it doesn't feel scripted, cause this is what actually happens.
Keep it up if you think it's fun!
There are a few channels on YT I follow, 3 from UK and 1 from Australia 😀... I'm Swedish and we have nothing like it that I know of. Looking forward to visit UK and pick up a shitbox in the future 😀
how much have you saved on parts and equipment from sponsors, be interesting to know how much you youtubers save with the free stuff
That’s not hot. I grew up in the center of the sun and it was 15 000 000°C every day.
South Korea's favourite noodle box for Edwin. I'd trade mcsh1t for that every day they are lovely. TBH, I can't recall the last time I had a mcsh1t!. Keep going Edwin (11:45m)
30 Degrees thats nothing... where I grew up we appreciate good content like this and comment to boost the metrics of the channel.
SPOILER COMMENT:
.
As much as I feel disappointed that Edwin does not manage to get a free upgrade, however I like this shows how reality a mechanic has to face on fixing any cars.
If it was all smooth and shown no problem, it will lay unrealistic expectations on normal people to have their car major repair done in a day once they are sent to any workshop.
Edwin is totally my kinda guy, we would get on like a house on fire. If you see this and fancy helping me do a project on my 1995 JDM Mazda Bongo import. I'd be totally down.
Cheers for the excellent content ❤
Any chance you could do the same with my 2001 SLK 230 manual. Taking it on a long tour for charity next year through Europe. It's a proper shit box but like Bagpuss I love it!
Me, 16 minutes and 20 seconds in, listening to breakfast talk, and noticing a strategically placed bottle of what looks to be white wine on the box trunking up in the corner.
Mildly disappointed that wasn't the breakfast option LOL
I also need more information on said object. Just why?
Nah the fuel lines and sleep are a safety issue. I vote Edwin gets a second shot at it with the sleep time added on and the fuel lines fixed without impacting time.
Hands down still some of the best car-related content on youtube. It literally gives me gives me vibes from when Top Gear was my favourite show.
