I’ve been obsessed with this car for 15 years. I’ve never bought one because they were only sold in Japan, which makes them incredibly rare, and usually quite expensive. So when a crash damaged one came up for sale; I thought it might be my chance to buy my dream car for cheap.

NOW THIS IS WHAT WE WANT TO SEE
I mean, I know Edwin is already a giant but him standing next to that car is hilarious.
I roared when the car vertical ad started 😂😂
I was about to say either Edwin is a giant, or this car is a toy. Turns out both are correct 😮. It's desperate for some non steely wheels
Hey that saab is jacks! Hope we see him in some videos soon
You can see Ethan's octavia at 16:07 as they go past
Spotting hints of Jack and Ethan in AutoAlex/TDC videos is the youtube version of Where's Wally
Jack and Ethan Left Car Throttle, seeing them around Alex's Unit is interesting
@@ewandale4795 Was pretty much a given
@@effteegood eye
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Edwin look this happy, and he wasn’t even cleaning anything. Great video guys.
Dare I say it...... this channel feels like a UK MCM, bloody brilliant content lads your doing a great job.
(Calm Moog voice) First step; F**k up your car 😁
Mighty Car Spods?
@@joemacleod-iredale2888 nah, keep it English. Blighty car mods. 😂😂😂
@@g.w.customcreations3534 this is brilliant
@@g.w.customcreations3534 So much better than my suggestion, though it doesn't capture the fact that MCM are achingly cool guys, and these two... not so much!
The picture of the car being carried on the forklift is absolutely hilarious.
I hate how copart do that though. Probably a grands worth of damage per lift on monster cars.
Thats jacks Saab at 5:37
5:03 It's the same car Edwin is sat inside of
ITB trumpets on a Beat are perhaps the funniest thing ever seen on any car channel ever. The fastest sounding slow car is what everyone wants.
That Benetton f1 wheel is so beautifully disgusting... I love it.
As much as I love this build, what I love more is your unrestrained enthusiasm. This is what car modifying is all about!
You can see the raw enjoyment and passion all over your face. It didn't seem to be there at the old channel. Really pleased you've found your home. Great video ❤
Edwin is a genius.
Please dont become like AutoAlex who only buy cars and then never showes them again🙏 the progress is what's fun to watch🙏🙏🙏
11:59 - I can really appreciate this sort of bang-up job because it really speaks to me personally. lmao
and with a little dirt on it from a drive or two, you won't even really notice. cars are meant to be driven, not kept pristine in a garage unused and unloved.
Can't be too protective of it when you fuck the paint job up in the first place 👍
@@connor1586 hardly "fucked up" imo, and can always be repainted later.
4:38 Yooooo! You make that car look like a Little Tikes Cosy Coupe in this shot! 😂😂😂
Now I want to see Alex next to it
Or maybe he was just standing behind it
Edwin is 6'5", and none of it is in his neck
He'd make a good Gru
😂😂😂
Very nice, this channel is great!!
I usually don't like these cars and nearly all kei cars, but Edwins enthusiasm for this had me loving it by the end. The bumper cut 👌
Loving the channel! Love the fact it isn't full of BMWs!
They've bought an x5 lol
This channel has rapidly become one of my favourites. So happy for Edwin on his new Beat. Such a cool car.
please can we get can of Japan as a sticker, it'd be brilliant
TDC Video = fantastic day
You guys have totally nailed how to produce good content. Love the fact you see things through and not just start projects that get left forever and a day.
3 videos in and you guys are actually making better content than the Autoalex team. Hats off
just waiting for jack and ethan to come back now
Agreed.
I wouldn't go as far as saying better than auto alex but maybe on par... Car throttle held all these guys back. Just nice to see everyone slowly getting back together. Ive unsubscribed from Car Throttle now as they've lost everything thats made them good👍
At least these guys actually do up cars autoalex seems to just buy them haha
I like both Autoalex and TDC
Keep some of the red and add some yellow and green wrap to match the steering wheel. Also fit a diffuser
Fantastic. A full fix/mod in one video! Such a cool car. Definitely need to find one of those Mugen ECUs for a 9.2k redline!
Possibly becoming my favourite channel. Edwin’s joy 😍
Will’s comments never fail to amuse me
This is the best car featured on any car channel ever.
16:08 I spy Ethan's Octavia!
And Alex's BMW close to the unit's door. We may need to wait for the next AA podcast or something but i suspect some announcement can't be far away.
Ethan's voice @ 13:52 ...ummmm
@dicktate964 well spotted 😂
@@dicktate964I think that's Will.
@@DarrenPaul i hope not lol i want the band back ;)
Love the chemistry and energy of TDC ❤
Con honestly say this cheered me up! Edwins face and excitement 😂... Bring on more!
AutoAlex should take note, thats two cars you guys have bought AND worked on😂 Alex buys cars then loses them, never to be seen again😂😂
This is already my fav auto channel, just the perfect balance of excellent personalities and interesting content!!!
Really enjoying you too together. You’re a great team. Edwin, your personality really comes out on this show. You both look much happier.
I have on of these in the states and I have some tips for you. 1 I am 6' 2'' so you have a few inches on me and a quick release hub for the steering wheel was life changing for me. So much eassier to get in and out. 2 There are 2 center jack points at the front and rear of the car so you can jack up both fronts or both rears. 3 see if you can get the spare tire bracket for under the hood because it acts as a duct for your radiator. Good purchase and I'm glad more people are learning about these over the past few years. Also excited to see what tires you get because I can't even get 14s here.
They both compliment each other. The start of an Automotive Media Dynasty
covering the plate in the video, but not in the sponsor segment is top tier
Also the shots beside the range Rover 😮
I love Kei cars, so much fun in such a tiny package. Looking forward to seeing this progress.
look at edwin's happy little face. that is a man living life to the fullest.
I'm with you Edwin. I frickin love these cars. Well done guys. Loving the content
03:20 Toyota Levin AE111 had ITBs from the factory!
Loving the content of your channel, you can tell by the looks on your faces that you both enjoyed driving that little beast around. Look forward to the next one.
The brake light sounded awesome. I’m already loving this channel. Some have to find their feet before they get worth watching but you guys are knocking it out of the park from the first video. Amazing work.
What a cool car! Can't wait to see more!!!
Guys, I was skeptical about new channel but you rock! I really like style.
I was so happy to see you guys starting a channel and i've enjoyed every minute of your videos! Keep killing it guys!
Top content like always guys!! Love the car!
Very cool car 🚗
That Beat is absolutely stunning with the bumper cut!
So pleased for you both, the channel is class 👏
Quickly becoming my favourite channel - loving the little Easter eggs you’re leaving us with too 👍
Nice variety so far- Keep up the good work.
These cars are awesome! I want the newer S660 but I can't import them for a long time...
Yeah I love the look of the S660. There's a few grey imports in the UK but I'm not sure I can justify £15k on a toy!
@@drunkenhobo8020 why would it be a grey import in the uk? Its legal to import in the uk.
@@JakeGauld Yes, grey imports are legal. That's what the term means - a car legally imported to a country but not through a main dealer network. Generally either privately or through third-party import specialists.
@@drunkenhobo8020 ah thanks for the correction my man! Every day is a school day.
More JDM vids please!
Absolutely Legends, I'm so glad you've joined forces to bring a fantastic channel together. I love car stuff, and the hint in humour makes me laugh so much,I can see you have so much fun doing this!!! Keep them coming, you work so well together.
Edwin’s passion is so awesome to watch 👌🏼 keep up the amazing content guys
Sorry, I subbed to a car channel, not a review for a roller shoe for Edwin 😆
Edwins new heeleys😂
One of the things you guys are doing with this channel is attainability.
Your projects are the sort of thing that the average people do.
Love the wheels, they are just great! And the sound, THE SOUND! Lovely little motor!
Absolutely love these videos 🤌🏻 So happy for you all. TDC became one of my favourite channels from the first video 🖤
Please PUT TAYLOR IN THIS!
After Edwin bought this autoalex went and got 1 also I'm sure Taylor gets in that 1 lol
The passion Edwin has over this car is infectious
I had a massive smile on my face all the way through this vid, and its cos Edwin is so excited about that motor! Infectious!
Paint the Beat to match the Benetton wheel. Can do it similar to VW harlequin with painted panels, like drivers door and wing along with front bumper painted yellow, passengers door and wing with bonner painted green, leave the sills, rear quarters, boot and rear bumper painted red.
Ew nooo, all one colour is best
Brilliant videos! Really enjoying what you guys are doing, well done
Loving the content guys, great work!
the beat is really cool, and so is the cappuccino. but nothing beats the A in the ABC cars, the autozam AZ1.
congrats to your new ride, I hope you'll love it down the road. I really understand the happy feeling you're having cause I also bought my absolute dream car a couple years ago and it is also a weird car but for other reasons than being small. mine is the only actual sports car Volvo ever made but as the wagon variant. the Volvo 1800ES. I love that thing to bits and I hope you'll love your ride just as much.
Love how happy it made Edwin! Can't stop the beat.
The sound is pure FUN! Nice catch!
You guys are smashing it! Please keep up with the down to earth goodness of this channel. Thanks both!
Cool video guys. I really look forward to what you guys have coming up next. Loved the porker series so far 👍
The AutoAlex/TDC multiverse is fantastic, cannot wait for the massive collaboration videos in future!
stunning find edwin, happy for you
I love how happy Edwin is
Edwin's sheer delight in this video is truly wholesome!
Love seeing actual car builds and upgrades. Keep it up guys!
Now I really want to see a half-a-day adventure with the Beat
absolutely love this car. this channel is becoming really good btw. i already love it just as much as autoalex
I bought one of these new in 1992 - red like this one. Hilarious little car - you will have noticed the passenger seat is 2/3rds the width of the driver's seat! Had a speed limiter on it which cut out one cylinder at 81mph - I never noticed but my wife did when she drove it.... Little black box bypassed that. The speedo is in kph but 100 kph feels like 100mph. The engine noise was fantastic. First day I took it to work a van hit it from behind! (clearly a common fault!) Required a new bumper from Japan. Kept it for a few years bur eventually traded it in -- for a V6 Camry estate! (we bought two dogs - they don't fit in a Beat! I did get a luggage rack for the 'boot' lid - could fit a small suitcase in it. Helpful hint - always undo the clip on the hood at the back of the doors or it snaps off. They just unscrew so are easy to replace but again come from Japan. I don't know if yours has this but the radio cassette has a volume control so it turns up the volume automatically as the engine noise increases. Shame they never brought them here - they were apparently popular in Cyprus!!
Just SO enjoyable watching this channel guys! Keep up the amazing content 👏 👌
You guys are killing it! Loved every video so far 😄
Edwin's face when driving the beat....priceless! Fantastic video guys, you're smashing it
INSANELY awesome car. Love it. Top originality points!!
This is brilliant! What an amazing little car!
Smashing it again with these videos keep them coming !!
I love these little Kei Cars. I bought myself a car a couple of weeks ago that I seen years back a Diahatsu Copen after that I wanted one for ages and when this one popped up for sale at a salvage yard I had to have it. Ok it needs work being Cat-N and it has some rust issues that need addressing but what a fun little project it's going to be.
One of my dream cars too - I love the design, the sound and the bonkers engineering. 16:19 sounded absolutely superb, like a baby NSX.
for real! sounded great
I've always loved the Honda Beat, its much easier to have fun in a small car with enough power than it is to have fun in a big car that has too much. When that small car is a purpose built sports car with almost no mass the fun level just increases, its a big part of why cars like the original mini, the MX-5 or Lotus Elise were so successful. With the Beat a normal country road becomes a race track where you can take the correct line through each corner and feel like you are doing 100mph all while staying in the correct lane and being under the speed limit. It may not be fast but it sure is fun 😄I can very much relate to the enthusiasm in this video.
Absolutely LOVE this! (Cutting off the bottom half of bumper not so much, maybe acquired taste)
TDC vids are now my highlight of the week.
Love this little Honda, I'm so jealous and I love the 'reachable' builds you guys do! Also you guys' chemistry is amazing, keep up the good work!
Cracking video guys :) love Kei cars so this will be an interesting series
Amazing content so far, you guys are brilliant!!!
Incredible video, so much passion about the car - such a joy to watch (and not in 100 parts either)
Loving this! Good job lads!
Love you guys, watching all videos one by one! All best from Poland! :)
Fantastic stuff as always lads. Quickly becoming my favourite youtube channel.
Awesome, I share your love for the Honda Beat and have always wanted to own one. I hope there is some kind of air-filter arrangement over those velocity stacks, having them open is a recipe for bad things to happen.
Best episode of a TH-cam car show ever. You can see how much he loves the car already. I’d like loads more of this please
great stuff you guys!! really enjoying the content
Seeing your views flying is fantastic fellas I've enjoyed everyone so far hope you keep climbing 👍💪💪
