    We all love a future classic, and it doesn't get much better than the stunning BMW E46 M3. In this new series that we're kicking off, we invited TH-camr Mat Armstrong to the Smallest Cog to have his car checked over by Mike and Anthony, and have a chat with Richard. Here's how it went!

    Modding is essentially a way to prolong the love of your car. Everyone drives a new car with such pride and distinction, which fades over time as you age with the car, and see others around just like it. After a mod of any kind, big or small, engine bay or phone holder, you drive it the next day feeling like you've made it unique again. That, for me, is what it's all about.
