    Brilliant Dean, congratulations and well done at reaching this point. You’ve grafted hard for years and it’s paying off. Seeing you go full time with TH-cam and the competition website is welcome news. I got hooked on your channel during the early stages of the Covid lockdowns and I’ve been an avid fan and subscriber ever since. You’re grounded and an honest, decent human being just chasing your dreams. These are the kinds of TH-camrs that should be rewarded! The content is very good and it’s going to be great to see more regular videos on the projects. Good luck with it all in this next stage. 👏🏼

  • @tedjohnson64
    @tedjohnson64 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Fascinating success story, and your video/camera/editing skills and storytelling delivery are ! Hard to believe that this wasn’t produced by a professional film crew.

  • @danielharford-lyons948
    @danielharford-lyons948 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sometimes it might feel like you're giving in when really you're giving it all you've got and try not to worry too much about quantity rather than quality of content. You create unique content with unique style and are one of the very few channels that I always look forward to watching, regardless of how long I've waited. I'm certain you won't live to regret anything you do (and Omaze will finally have an excuse to stop those annoying ads where the winners always completely match up to the stereotype of the car they've won). Stay strong, keep it real Dean and keep showing your family the love you so obviously have for them.

    Amazing vid man and showing who you are and how you started, and you mentioned the most important thing in your life, yes the missus! They say behind every great man, there is a greater woman (family) and yes it's really true, it takes a team effort. Keep those vids coming Dean and wishing you success with your new company!

  • @bensmith6992
    @bensmith6992 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    What an inspiring journey. I love your videos, especially the honest approach and that sometimes it just doesn't work out, just goes to show it's no walk in the park fixing cars. If I could change one thing I'd improve your camera focus from time to time but that's minor in my book. Keep going mate!

  • @squeakers27

  • @LeeJonesNPT
    @LeeJonesNPT ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Well done Dean, i have always been impressed with your work ethic and ability to deliver professional looking videos. I was amazed by your first video, you have always seemed so comfortable in front of the camera and your language skills are exemplary. I would have sworn you had some professional media background or training. Keep up the good work and good luck. Raffles and lotteries can be a bit tricky to deal with.

    Great to see the channel grow. Ive watched you from a few hundred subscribers and the Audi, I actually found your channel as I was enjoying what Rob and Chris were doing on Salvage Rebuilds and TH-cam led me here.
    My son is now using my account to try and grow his TH-cam channel, so hopefully he ends up as successful as you've become.

    Fair play To you. I'm a class 1 trucker and have been since leaving the army. I had an idea about 5/6 years ago to maybe get into transporting cars and bikes but never had the balls to go from a steady job into the unknown.
    Fair play and well done.

    Great story and i remember stumbling across your channel during lockdown and glad i subscribed. Your confidence has grown so much behind the camera, you don't need to be a Mat Armstrong or Calvin just be you. We're here for the cars and the intricate work on the RS engines for example sets you apart from others. all the best

    @rthomasbox ปีที่แล้ว

    Working for yourself is so much more rewarding. Doesn’t matter what it is, driving, cleaning, gardening it could be the most dullest job but as soon as it’s your own money and your own self generated work, it’s no longer ‘just a job’ especially when customers keep coming back as well

  • @volvofreak86
    @volvofreak86 ปีที่แล้ว

    @zaink7037 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love your backstory. Stay humble Dean. Currently struggling myself with getting a good paid career. Sadly i feel people around my age who finished studying during or just after covid things have just gone downhill with jobs and companies not willing or have money for new people. I think its best to work solo making your own business than working for a company who might not value you

    Can’t wait for the raffle to start will definitely be hoping for a win.
    All the best Dean I’m sure it will work out and you won’t look back.

Absolutely loved hearing about your career so far and how you’ve come to be here. I’ve not been subscribed for that long, but I’m seriously loving your channel. I honestly can’t wait to see the other projects back in action, especially the Focus RS! Also just joined your car competition page, so congratulations on that new venture! Marc.

    Wow , What a story . I’m only 22 myself been watching your videos for ages now and love them . I love everything about cars/ transport etc like yourself. Although I’ve not made great decisions financially which don’t help. I’d love to do what you do tbh transport drivings something I’ve always thought about just can’t afford to move jobs lol. Good luck to you tho man and keep up with the great vids❤

    SERIOUSLY??? Jeeeeeez yooz got sum bigguns Dean ! But absolutely proves the grafter reaps the rewards. You absolutely deserve this to go astronomic. I wish you all the luck in the world - but as you’ve already proven, you make your own luck .
    As an right above knee amputee, I doubt I’ll have the opportunity to compete for many motors. But you never know. Won’t stop me taking part, contributing and supporting you.
    Glad I was right all along …. I had you down as a full bore grafter who got nothing handed to him and had to earn every single last penny to get where you are today.
    Crack on mate and keep doing what your doing.
    Good luck Dean.
