I imagine many people didn't even know the car. The hype is just crazy but more than earned, especially as someone who's been watching since the S5 and always thought this channel (or the first channel rather) was so underrated 🙃
I miss the 1 series 🥲 But yet again U totally transformed a badly damaged car, and turned it into an epic machine!! Your a talented, top class Bloke!! Keep up the good work mate!!👊🏻👌🏻
Matt are you all self taught in what you do to these cars, you make an awesome job in all aspects of your builds. I've been in the trade 30 years and see skilled people struggle with some of the stuff you do. Fair play to you.
Watching these videos and I'm always amazed that you haven't just lost it and scrapped half these builds you do! The transformation not only on the BM but all the other builds is just incredible and the work, blood sweat and tears that go into them must give you such a huge wave of satisfaction. Keep killing it Mat 💪
This is probably the best 1 series build I have seen, love the color mate, only you should have kept seats red, on that skyblue they would look so good
Your Vlogs on both channels are AMAZING!!!! The only car Vlog I watch now as your a genuine person who just loves taking a Wreck into a Diamond 💎💎. Keep them coming Matt and you deserve everything that comes your way 👍👍👍
You've come a long way Mat, the 140i looks awesome, you're not only hardworking but talented and entertaining as well, love the channels, greetings from Spain 👊🏻
Showing some older car builds on this channel is a great idea definitely would like to see footage that didn't make the original vids an so on ... BMWs are awesome.
After watching you rebuild many different cars I realized that you have a skill set that the majority of people do not have. You can see something and you understand how it is supposed to work. I understand why highly trained technician's from some of the most prestigious auto manufacturers give you guidance. Your give aways make people's lives better.
M2 comp front on the M140i gotta be one of the best mods one can do to any BMW IMO. Looks amazing. The color isnt for me, but its not bad. Only thing that could make this better is the BayOptics F22 LCI LED headlights.
Wow amazing transformation, done it again MA, respect. The passion you have for quality content is brilliant. I couldn't help thinking about Chris calling his car insurer, "I've got a new car, need insurance please", insurance agent says, "has the car had any modifications from factory" 🤣boom.
Love your videos. Wish copart was different here in the states. Everything goes for way more then it really should. Would be nice to win something like this. It's absolutely beautiful. Good job
Great build and you can see it has been put back the right way, I would say the only thing that lets the build down is that you have used wrap to get out of making the car one colour. I do like wraps they are great if you want to try some crazy Lambo look or you want to have a colour change and protection for your paint job, it's when you take the wrap off as it has gone past it's sell by date and your posh car looks like a Harlequin.
FULL WATCH AND I HAVE TO SAY MATT !!...WHAT A CAR THAT IS !!....HATS OFF TO YOU !!.....FANTASTIC VIDEO PRESENTATION!!.....HOW YOU MANAGED TO PART WITH THAT BMW I DONT KNOW !!...AWSOME!!👍👍👍👍👍
Love the BMW 140 Mat, Pocket Rockets of note!!! This has made me miss my BMW 135, it had the N54 motor with a catless downpipe, a bigger step intercooler, aluminum charge, upgraded turbos, upgrade breaks from the BMW M3 and stage 2 software. My favorite car of all time, just had so much fun driving it and chasing superbikes down the highway.
Hi loved your videos wish South Africa had such nice cars and all the bargains. My wife and I can not stop watching your videos and can not wait to see what you do next. Keep it up, hope one day I can also be so lucky to drive one of your build up cars. If cost was not so high in South Africa I would also love to take on such projects.
For a quickish (?) build it’s totally sick and looks awesome! Love the engine and exhaust tone. Don’t see many (any) of these 1 series BM’s in the States,, I’ll gladly pay shipping if you’d like to send it over ;) keep up the great work!
Matt, do you check up on the old cars that have been won/given away. Would be amazing to have a update on the R8, Golf, 1 series, Bentley and all the others.
Deary me. First comment, but I’ve watched quite literally every video you’ve made now - eagerly anticipating more, while starting at the very start of my own journey, and we’ll outside my comfort zone - what’s the worst that can happen, right?! Fair play Mat.

Self taught car magician ! Awesome work ....always entertaining and mind boggling at the same time .....

This was my favourite build I wanted this car so much, well done 👍👍👍
Looks ace with M2 front end
My friend has just bought the new 22 plate M135i and it's brutal.
Amazing. My Mercedes was wrecked Nov 7 and they say it won’t be ready until dec 25 because of part shortages.
I'm not a fan of the BMW 1 series but that one I would have in a heart beat. That's 😍
Matt you and the team are miracle workers! The way that you rebuild a wrecked car is amazing and then just let be won is cool! 👌😎
Great build and you can see it has been put back the right way, I would say the only thing that lets the build down is that you have used wrap to get out of making the car one colour.

I think you should build a true sleeper car! That would be a an awesome build. Something totally unremarkable to look at but a BEAST in performance?
