The David attenborough of the car world
Mr.Onderwater good description
@@beetleything1864 Yes what an excellent narrative.. Iain is our Attenborough..:-)
Spot-on
Ian and Harry together are like if David and Richard Attenborough did a double act.
Except Attenboroough hates international combustion engines.
When you see some of the garbage that passes for car shows on TV why on earth does this guy not have his own TV series? No loud background music or fake deadlines to add fake suspense. I'm sick of all the fakery. I could watch Iain for hours. In fact, I'm convinced that Iain and Harry could make a series for adults that would be a smash hit with real car lovers all over the world.
@John McLaughlin...well said sir!
A bit like wheeler dealers for the educated, well off chaps? Works for me.
Couldn't agree more.
It would not fit in the basic schema of maximum views at minimized cost.
Not enough prospects for a sophisticated car show without any flashy effects than the work and cars themselves.
why should he have a TV series? TV is outdated imo, just watch it on YT as u do now :) also totally agree with Doc Skate
You're content is great, you are very knowledgeable and explain things so people understand . Happy Xmas to you and your family and staff.
@keith hilton In English the words YOUR and YOU'RE are spelled differently because they mean different things.
No music, no special effects, no drama, just raw and wonderful, how refreshing. Thank you.
I love the respect between the boss and the employee. This is how all employees should be treated and the world would be a better place. Hats off!
And it must be quite difficult to find the calibre of employee to work on cars of that standard and complexity.
"oh yes, yeah"
Damian Michael Michaels "yes, yes, yeah. Yes, of course. Yeah"
Absolutely.
Old school ways...
Iain Tyrrell... Loving your work as always
Iain speaks in such a very therapeutic tone, pleasure to listen to and well produced, this exactly what the car scene on youtube has been missing.
Keep up the great videos👍
ASMR for men.
I’ve just found these, not mechanical minded at all but even I can follow this and enjoy. Love companies like this bring classic cars back to their best. The Italian Job drive is one of my dream drive, maybe not do it in such an incredible classic but would love to do it.
He sounds like Tiff Needell to me
Iain. This is simply fantastic. Your knowledge, expertise and enthusiasm are what makes your workshop videos the top quality that they are. Please continue the series. There are very few people with your skills creating content like this. It must be clear to you that so many of us really appreciate you sharing this restoration/conservation with us. Happy christmas to you .
I'm 28 years old, and, being the son of a mechanic, I am very, very fond of cars, classics in particular. Somebody referred to you as the David Attenborough of cars. Well, I think no other definition could suit you better, sir. I see tangible passion and knowledge, which, paired with your manners, make your content so enjoyable. No-nonsense, no dumb music, no special effects. Just a passionate, down to earth person sharing his valuable knowledge to us. Thank you, sir.
Cheers from Italy!
Iain you have a fantastic way in telling the story of the Miura.
So interesting and in depth .
Merry Christmas .
Great entertainment , informative and not dumbed down , love it .
Enjoying the series to date, as I did with the Espada rebuild prevously recorded with Harry.
The finer detail of the processes undertaken along with the occasional tangent surrounding past experiences keep the videos natural and interesting.
Looking forward to seeing how this channel grows and how the little yellow Miura turns out, as I'm sure the team are too.
Keep going!
Great content !!! Please more !
These videos are such a joy to watch. Please continue this series on the Italian exotics and especially this Miura as long as possible. I am loving every bit of it. All this knowledge and attention to detail that you have in your shop is such a relieve to witness. Having my childhood dream car being explained and shown in this way with all the historic references is just like nothing else. (This most definitely was what that overpaid trio on TG was missing in their heyday tv show. --Just a little rant) Keep up this lovely series!!!
Mr. Metcalfe and Mr. Tyrrell, the best two TH-camrs. But better not call them like that. They are on another level in terms of quality. Thanks a lot for your effort!
Another extremely watchable episode covering this exceptional car. Thank you.
excellent Iain thank you for taking the time
Well finally a down to earth honest hard working knowledgeable guy who is clear and informative explaining things properly and not talking to people like we know nothing about anything.. very much needed. And i look forward to some amazing content. Please don't change the channel as you grow. Thanks again. And all the best.
Fascinating museum-quality preservation/restoration, Iain. I imagine there must be some agonising decisions to be made when it comes to replacing or keeping certain components on the car, although there must be some guidelines to follow, from the standards used in concourse judging contests. At the end of the day, if you look at it in terms of monetary value, there would be a premium placed on originality, especially with rare and important cars. Thank you for sharing your passion to a wider audience.
Craig the trimmer seems to be dedicated and passionate about his work
'oh yes, yeah"
A twenty minutes video that feels like it lasts five. That's the definition of interesting.
This program is for the automotive artisan. A true pleasure to watch and to listen to and is all class.
Well done to everyone invloved.
Hi Iain, as so many of us are saying this is a joy. Simple, steady paced with all your valuable observation and knowledge. We all know that you can only be in one place at a time but I for one I would love the see similar strip down and rebuild on other cars in the workshop. Ferrari and a V12 Jaguar too. We'll just have to keep watching! Lastly this Muira is extremely special being so original. It is tremendous to see cars of this originality where the factory quality markers are still present. It is also heartening to know these cars are attracting the respect and prices nut and bolt restorations only used to receive. There is another car like this on TH-cam a 1965 Jaguar E Type, LBI E Type takes you to it. This one is breathtaking too. All are mouthwatering films, Iain do keep it up. Thank you.
Merry Christmas ..It's wonderful seeing and hearing all that interesting info about that car .. Thank you .. I'm really looking forward to many more of these vids next year ..
I second that and share
Another excellent, informative video. I really look forward to watching these as your knowledge & passion come through effortlessly. Can’t wait for pt3 and also to see what other cars you have in the shop as I’ve spied a couple of old Jaguar’s (not E types either) and would love to know their stories.
Thank you & Merry Christmas to you, your family & all those who work with you.
Excellent content delivered in a gentleman's demeanor. Please continue.
Excellent stuff! Such a treat to watch intelligent, educated artisans in the automobile world. So much of what we get in the states are obese hillbillies in faded black t-shirts covered in tattoos who can't finish a sentence without some form of profanity.
Please keep the videos coming. I am looking forward to more.
PREMIUM QUALITY CONTENT ALERT! What superb work, presentation and knowledge you have here on this new channel. A pleasure to watch and fascinating to boot!
Thank you to you Ian and Harry Metcalfe for helping get this started with you, please keep it coming. 👍🏻 👏🏻
Outstanding video and thank you very much for starting this channel. I could listen to you talking about cars all day, so calm and relaxed.
Good luck with the channel, I am 100% certain it will be an outstandingly successful.
Hopefully Iain has passed down his skills for the next generation
I pray he does seriously.... in other countries where the car culture is not as strong and engineers hence get less exposure to exotics, they never have an opportunity to build and learn the knowledge via resilience like Iain. Example in Australia I would not let Zagames a ferrari dealership service my maserati after one service because it was obvious they had little depth of knowledge. Today most shops are just fitters... and the depth of passion does not go beyond the badge or balance sheet.
Top video don't stop making GREAT videos they best from the U.K. ,,
I think that might just have been the quickest 20 minutes in youtube history. Thank you for sharing such an amazing career with us.
I was thinking the same thing. Mr Tyrrell has such a pleasant presenting style that 20 minutes was over before I realized it.
Superb! this level of content is as exclusive as the cars covered. Congratulations.
Thank goodness this car is in good hands. It could have been over-restored and all that history lost.
At 8:09 we see a crack in the webbing between the block and the transmission case. Is that common on these cars? I would love to see that repair included in a future video.
Ok so I'm not the only one to notice that, I wonder if it really is a crack and if so what if anything will be done about it. I don't think this restoration in any way aims to bring it back to 'like new' so there is a fair chance it will just be left as-is if it isn't a risk or issue.
Saw that as well. Maybe we will get a comment in the next video?
Are you sure that's a crack? It looks to me like flashing from the cast where some oil has collected on top of it. I can't see how that particular web would crack without similar damage to the neighbouring ones, given the proximity and construction.
@noth606 I’m no expert, but it seems to me that it would not have cracked unless it was bearing a load, and if it was bearing a load then it’s probably important.
@Sheldon Holy I can’t be certain that it is a crack, but to your point I do think I see a much lighter crack in the webbing next-door. I can imagine that substantial suspension forces would get transmitted through the case to that spot due to the wacky way Lamborghini designed this thing. Can’t really blame them; it’s not like anyone else had ever done this before.
A quick hit with a TIG torch should fix it up, but it wouldn’t look original then. Can’t wait to see how Iain handles it. I’d probably just use some JB Weld (kidding!).
@@lebojay the second crack you speak of looks like a join in the casting to me, which would support the flashing guess. If it were a crack they'd likely look the same.
This is just so interesting. The level of detail, care and above all respect for the integrity of the car is brilliant. Thank you for sharing. Can't wait for more.
British Engineering in a voice... thank you
Spot On!!
Good call in focusing on the Miura, it's definitely my favorite bucket list car and I'm glad it's in the hands of a master. I can only imagine what kind of CV would be required to work for Mr. Tyrrell.
Great video & your depth of knowledge with these cars is quite exceptional. This car is in great hands, no wonder the owner brought it to you.👌👍
Great to see the inside story of such a fantastic workshop in the U.K., the Miura story and the true appreciation of it's originality strikes a chord with me. 100 point concourse cars are wonderful in their own way but nothing beats original if it can be saved, sadly too much emphasis seems to be placed on making cars "better than new" at restoration time. Just my opinion of course!
Could you do a shop tour and introduce the craftsman you work with on future episodes. I wish my Dad was still alive to have watched this channel.
Again an excellent presentation - 👍Well done ✅!! - detailed and not rushed yet compelling to watch- very rare combination that flows naturally without forethought or effort- 👍. I can see a tv channel being interested in this- It would easily work over 45 minutes without any interest being lost- worthy of thought. ⚙️♥️😇🌹💐👍⚙️
What an outstanding channel! I came here through Harry's Garage and had to subscribe. Thanks so much for sharing your passion with us - a German lute player and car enthusiast
What an engineering marvel, a shift linkage that goes THROUGH the engine block!
Also not something lambo repeated afaik so definitely a curiosity. Cool one though.
As with all things historic and rare there are only a few folk who REALLY know their trade. They are always a joy to listen to and it matters not what subject is chosen, they captivate their audience. I love cars and I have certainly had a few classics over the 50 plus years. Most of the ones I see on here were beyond my reach, but I do wish I had purchased a battered old Espada brush painted with pure 60s psychodelia!!!
Thank you for this wonderful video full of knowledge and beautifully presented. I am already looking forward to the next one. Thank you Iain.
Cheers, Bob
Another fantastic video. Thank you for sharing. I would really love to see more detail on the cleaning of the carpets and seats if possible. I have absolutely no experience with deep cleaning vintage carpet and fabrics. Would be nice to see how you deal with this.
An absolutely wonderful workshop full of amazing cars and an absolute gent running it.. keep up the great work Ian..
The previous comments say it all a totally, totally engrossing channel. I'm hooked and looking forward to seeing the restoration process progress with this time capsule car. Its interesting how the priorities of restoration have changed. Back in the early 90's it would be the done thing to strip this car back to bare metal and fibreglass and rebuild it to better than new condition, but now it is all about keeping the originality and the history of the car. I'm pleased about this as I have a fairly original 65 Mustang that has quite a bit of patina because I love driving it so much, even after years of ownership. I couldn't own a concours one as I'd be too afraid to take it out of the garage.
Superb video, fascinating to hear about the engineering that went it to these cars. Will the doors have to be opened up or are you confident to leave them as they are and trust everything inside to continue to work? Similarly with the exhaust, I assume that won't go back on the car? Would look great on the wall in the garage!
How on earth am I supposed to get anything done now?! Good stuff.
Mr Tyrrell. What car or cars do you drive personally? I'm curious about that
Excellent question.
'96 Hyundai excel
Reliant Robin, the yellow one out of only fools and horses
Big Mercedes 4x4 or ranger rover, something that can tow an inclosed car trailer
Any Car he wants End off
"It's only original once" - I could watch this all day. Really excited to see the final result. Thank you.
what a place, nice to see a mk2 Golf GTI there too!
Ultimate detail from the master himself. I’ve said this before but this channel is my number one to watch in 2020. So refreshing to see another master at work instead of the normal dross. Loved the episode.
I love the professional comments of those details, not common from other similar channels, this is exactly what I was looking for. Well done!👍👍
Love the video great info have a great holiday
Very enjoyable these. It's like being talked to by James May's smooth dad.
My new favourite channel.
Oh the pangs of regret I have when I think of all the wonderful Alfa's, Lancia's and FIAT's I had and let go throughout my 20's (95-05).
Enjoy it? I loved it! Thank you again for your insight, perfect enthusiast dream content👍 happy christmas Mr Tyrrell ur a legend👍
Superb video ,so looking forward for next video. Happy Christmas
Wonderfully produced content. Manages to impart the knowledge and wonder surrounding a car such as this, without the pomp and circumstance that comes with Metcalfe. Absolutely terrific, and I hope there are many more videos to come.
Great video, your depth of knowledge is just spell binding
Can’t wait for the next one or the rebuild of Harry’s V12
More, more, more :-)
I like the details about how the Miura is constructed - very interesting!:-) A special car indeed! I am a sucker for the Espada. And I would really like to hear more about the ferrari in episode 1 too. Love the presentation!:-)
Iain , I knew that you will be a hit . Love your second video , and I'm so proud with you , and you could have your own TV show . WELL DONE . Simon
Hello Simon hope you are very well? . I so agree with you. Iain’s videos are excellent. Keep well and thanks for adding a great comment.
“Add lightness”. Love that phrase.
A Chapmanism!
Thanks to yourself and Harry us grown-ups now have an alternative to the "other youtubers" that prattle on endlessly about wraps, launch control and Content. which is rather refreshing
Thanks for sharing. Glad you have started introducing the rest of this amazing team. Look forward to the next episode.
Thanks to you, Harry and TH-cam for feeding my current Miura obsession!!!! Keep up the amazing content on classics. By the looks of your shop, you have lots of good content to come.
Another great video. Thanks Iain for sharing your knowledge! Happy Christmas to you and to everyone watching.
Excellent content and delivered in a professional manner but your passion and interest really sets you apart from others - one of the best channels on TH-cam. Congratulations !
What wonderful vid absolutely brilliant and very interesting could listen for hours would love to be a millionaire and give you project very well done roll on next one.
Christmas has come early ! 🌲
Excellent detail... have subscribed, will watch regularly
Pure class! All the best mates!
Superb video. I love the level of knowledge and explanation given here - presented clearly and concisely. Excellent video style which thankfully isn't ruined by awful music or flashy editing. I've just subscribed and look forward to watching more of your videos. Thank you to all involved, and keep up the good work.
Oh, and that Miura is gorgeous. One of my favourite looking cars of all time.
Superb presentation
I join the band here to say you do a great job at explaining this marvelous car. And I agree with M C here regarding the usual garbage we see on You Tube. You quite raise the bar, sir ! With your calm attitude, clear explanations shows your total control and unique knowledge is preserving icon cars.
Indidently, as a young gearhead, the Miura was, and still is, one of my favourite cars, along the Dino, the early E Type and the Ford GT40 (with the iconic Gulf livery, of course).
You really made me laugh when you said "snug like bug in a rug" !!! So funny but right to the point !
I wish you and all a Merry Christmas and a great new year from Varennes, Québec, Canada.
"Snug as a bug in a rug" haven't heard that saying for a while. My dad used it quite a lot when I was younger, he's over 80 now.
Superb, superb, superb! Iain thank you, informative with a depth of knowledge that is a joy to behold. Wishing you, your family and the whole team a very Happy Christmas.
Anyone else playing "spot the difference" to see what's new with Harry's Espada? ,-)
Haha yes me too.
Gday Iain, May I ask what equipment you’re using to record your audio? You’re standing in an enormous shed but it sounds as though you’re in a soundproof room!
This is the way to go, preserve originality as much as possible. May North Americans watch this video and learn from it !
Another wonderful video Iain.
Will we be seeing you in capri pants like the guy from Retropower? :)
Made my Sunday! Absolutely brilliant.
What an absolute classy pair of gents Ian and Harry are. Highly knowledgeable, entertaining , informative video’s, proper car blokes, not up themselves in the slightest . I have watched everyone one of Harry’s video’s and will no doubt watch all of Ian’s. Imagine a world with people having this old school charm that they both have 👍. Kudos .
This is such a joy to watch. Thank you! I am really looking forward to all there is to come out of your workshop in the future!
A magnificent video. As someone who worked in Architectural restoration, I love your approach and rational. You're a true artisan and custodian. Subscribed.
The best new channel on TH-cam! Astounding expertise and dedication to preservation. Your efforts will do much to champion the appreciation of "patina." It would be a travesty to repaint that car. It is far more special in unrestored, preserved condition.
Fantastic content. 🙂 When I saw you holding that original Ansa exhaust, I just know you guys are going to figure a way to take those original stickers off in one piece. 👍🏻😃
As a youtuber and hobby classic car restore myself this channel really hits the spot for me! Cheers Dave
I love the channel. Hopefully you will give us more. Restorations are amazing. I'm a subscriber of Harry's garage and that is how I came across you. Added advantage is your workshop is down the road from where I live
Yep - best new you tube channel of 2019 - so enjoyable
Amazing again, many thanks. I liked before watching, and was not disappointed in the least :)
ANOTHER SUPERB VIDEO - HAPPY CHRISTMAS 🎄
Absolutely fascinating! Thank you for sharing with us and look forward to the next episode!
p.s. is that Mr Harry's finished V12 power plant in the background?
Absolutely fascinating to witness the care and attention to detail involved in your work. Well done.
Tyrrell, I just want to say thank you for doing this. I love the channel already.
Loving the videos! Thanks Iain!
Fantastic fascinating video from true artisans of their craft. Thanks to Harry Metcalfe for introducing me to this channel. Wonderful stuff!
Simply fabulous video. So nice to see someone with so much respect for the past!
Wonderful video, very interesting. What an incredible original Miura! Look forward to more video's.
