I made the grill on that Jag, back in the day as a teenager in Coventry.
This is exactly the kind of content I love to see on KZread! It's like getting a glimpse behind the scenes of a real car dealership. You've got a great balance of showing the fun parts of the job, like picking up new cars and checking out interesting properties, with the not-so-glamorous parts, like running around and dealing with repairs. Plus, your commentary is hilarious!
Thank you Mat, love watching your car videos. good to see your brother aswell 🙂
As a rental Tennant I’d appreciate a landlord like you, We’ve lived in our current rental for 9 years now, and not a single thing has been done by the landlord, I spend money on it my self as I like a nice home, but could be asked to leave at any point. Keep doing what you do.

U keep doing what you do too.i was a landlord for 10 yrs and made the flats lovely, however only one tenant ever looked after the places, the rest trashed the places. Refreshing you care.😅

What's the point in renting of you are going to live in the same place long term? Might as well buy. Renting is for short term if you are not thinking of staying.

Your policy of selling a car which includes a decent amount of fuel is a great advert. Every used car (and one new one) I have ever bought was in the red zone. Keep up the good work!

Decades ago a dealer charged my parents for the fuel in the new Avenger they had just bought. So, to his displeasure, they insisted on being paid for the fuel in the car they had just traded in.

Good on you Matt, you’ve clearly worked very hard and you are spot on when you say you want a better balance to go and enjoy yourself etc.
That XKR is a keeper, mark my words in ten years you will pay 30k for a bad example.

As always fantastic video Matt, really enjoyed this one!

Man I love your content. Being in the US it's neat seeing all the euro cars - and we are different types of dealers. I do cheap buy here pay here cars so I kinda laugh when you say a car is "scruffy" I'm saying "Oh man, that's a pretty clean car!" Anyway, love your stuff my man!

Brilliant Matt, always love watching your videos, keep up with the great work 👏👏
Love this Bloke, very easy and entertaining to watch I wish Rob on UK Salvage Rebuilds who never uses one word when half a dozen will do was not so annoying, beginning to do my head in but have to say the rebuilds were brilliant
That was a great watch! Quality work again Matt. You’ve done very well for yourself so why no go and enjoy life. You’ve certainly earned it with long hard work.
Really enjoyable video as always Matt. I appreciate your approach towards both being a used car dealer, and being a property owner. You always seem honest, and have an attitude of ensuring that everything you sell is in a good condition and well prepared. Not only is this a great sign that you take pride in doing your work correctly to honour customers and to be an honest guy, from a business side I'm sure it saves a lot of the hassle that comes with doing things cheaply and to a poor standard. Any business or property owner should take note!

Can't commend you enough for the attention to detail and effort you put into each car. It is very refreshing especially these days when businesses are trying to cut corners and make a quick buck. Really appreciate your openness and honesty it's very admirable. 👍🏽

Great stuff Mat. Real, straight to the point, no BS.
Fantastic video, Matt! Great seeing other aspects of your life. We have such similar tastes in cars, but I also own a property management company, so it’s cool to see that side of your business too. Best of luck to you! 💪🏻 You gotta keep that Jag!!
Great video matt, you look so relaxed going place to place, id be stressed doing all that. Love the green xkr. Cant wait to see a video with that
Matt , keep it, keep it! It's gorgeous!!!! That kag will be a classic. I love that you're in property and applying the same love and enthusiasm as with your cars. People do appreciate living in a nice place like driving a new car.. Great vid
Great video Mat….loving the content and your honesty
Nice video Matt ,good to see what you get upto on a working day 😊
I hope to be in your position after many more years of graft to come! Thank you for inspiring me & for the great content, a lot of knowledge you have given me over the years! I’m now on about 15 cars when i started watching you I had 2 & had a lot of hardships but now its looking like i can hit 30/40 cars comfortably by end if the year!
I’m glad you did this video if only to show your viewers the other mundane stuff you have to do rather then all the glamour that’s usually shown in an unrealistic car salesman’s lot. I personally like your videos, it’s all fascinating stuff. Many thanks go or taking the time to show us your reality.
nice video, glad it was an easier day for you than last time you did one of these videos
Great video Matt. Exciting life actually 🤩 more of these please legend
Love the videos i watch them all ❤🙏
Really enjoyed this video. Great to diversify. Thank you.
Always enjoy your videos 💯
This was great to watch! I would love to see more of these videos 👍🏻
Another good watch & glad it’s all coming together for you…… all from the first RR sport video 👍🏼
Well done Matt. I look forward to these catch up sessions.
Like that Jag. Definitely a future classic, I imagine it could appreciate in value
Another quality video. Very enjoyable. Looking forward to the next one.

Love your videos, Matt. Whatever you do
What a gem that XKR was!! House looked great. 👍🏻
Loved this video matt also good to see you with a property on way hopefully see more on property channel in future as I really enjoyed them great content once again
Entertaining video Mat . . .it would be nice to see more of these.
Interesting channel, I was a yard hand once. Using an r134a guage set and an extra long quick connect you could recover the refrigerant from the cars you scrap by re-gassing another car and save yourself 60 bob.
Great video and content as usual Matt, those Corsa E VXRs are such good cars, love the design, interior, speeds and its very nippy, a bloke here swapped it with an automatic gearbox.
Nice vid Matt! Good to see the other side of you. Appreciate the landlord side of you!(everybody deserves somewhere nice to live, I liked that!) Keep doing what you do bud!👍👏👏👏❤️
This is one of the top automotive channels on YT imho. Absolutely fantastic, honest content! Keep it coming Matt and gang, a pleasure to watch 🚘👍🏽

Super job on the property refurb, the bigger kitchen will make the whole property feel bigger, good to see you kept the outside toilet too, we have one of those and it gets more use than you'd think..
Hi Matt that was an excellent day in the life of a car dealer the house looks great as well good luck with everything may your success continue. Cheers Phil from Newark
Matt, You're a professional and I've got respect for your ethics.
Beautiful XKR! That would be free to run as it will only appreciate!
Another class vid Matt smashing it bruva😂
That XKR looks amazing! A couple of years ago I sold a bungalow for a client with an annexe - it was self contained with a kitchen. The sellers had to remove the 2nd kitchen for the buyer to get a mortgage , then re-fit when they moved in!
Great video, love the insight. You mentioned the cash flow and new stock, I always wondered what the average turn around time is. After 8 years of hard graft it's nice to know you have the option of giving yourself a bit more freedom in the near future
You’re a really decent guy mate. You genuinely care about your customers and sort issues and post it online.. you don’t hide anything. Furthermore you want a nice home for people to rent… you moved a boiler to another part of the house even though it’s safe… it shows you care… i honestly wish you the best with your home rentals. You deserve it.
Good video update on Highpeak autos. Its nice to see your brother and friend in the videos more aswell.

Glad I’ve seen that VXR as someone I know said they had one but both his and that one has normal door mirrors… the VXR’s I saw all had the more streamlined mirrors with like a link underneath to allow airflow etc… 🤔
Another great video. Next time you have a kitchen fitted can you ask for the worktops to be joined properly and not with a cheap joining strip. 😮

Matt, you know what I’m going to say, let’s see that 06 s class when it’s done 👍
Great video - would love to see you do a review of the Honda civic you pointed at as been yours as a lot of people view these as a good buy as a first time car or a cheap runabout - was wondering what you thought of the car and its (as sometimes referred to) choppy ride?
Great video matt as usual when are you doing the follow up video of your 07 4.2 suddenly a8 tdi looking forward to that one 👍
Great insight to your various business interests, pretty varied range of cars which adds to the interest. Wise decission to try to slow down a bit and take some time for yourself as you say we are only here once. Lovely XKR great colour combination from a time when we knew what Jaguars were about and were desirable but not for much longer sadly!
Great video and a nice change. 👍👍👍
"Everybody deserves to live in a nice place"...this just about sums you up Matt. There's no price you can ask for looking after others and is probably why you've been so successful so far in life...plus why we all enjoy watching in you go about your daily life.

I love those Yeti's too. Sadly rust on the doors is a real problem with them. 'zinc inclusions' issue at the factory apparently?
Loved this, it’s like a relatable version of top gear 🤣👌
Enjoyed the property segment, haven't seen a new video on your properties for a while. The old kitchen space will be a useful storage room and laundry, washer & dryer stack.
Howdy Matt!! Always fun to see into the "inner sanctum" of a Tubers life!! All that running around keeps you so svelte & available! 🤩🤩 Big hugs from Kenny in Ohio USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Matt! Love the vids! I was wondering if you could do a video with a VW Golf Mk7.5? I'm thinking of buying one soon and would love to know your thoughts on it. Ik you did one on the GTI or R? But I'm buying a regular SE / Match Edition. So I would love to know your thoughts on it.
I admire the effort everyday , I've already got to the stage in life I cant be arsed

I have been following you for a few years now, and i really like your content. It motives me, but how did you pass the MOT with this blue smoke on the XKR?
