Mate, I’ve seen the guy from the G-Wagon all over IG - the world is such a small place. Also beyond impressed that this car is still going - cracking job you’ve made it this far! 👌🏽

Gary Oldman at it again! It's still so wild that you took a ropey 3er to the US, mental.

Love your videos

Considering the history of that ferry, I hope you made it over okay. Did you know that Arsenal footballer Dennis Bergkamp used to have to take ferries to away European games as he had a fear of flying.

Wow! I got that Ghana guy with the G63 in my feed a while and was pretty amazed that you came across him. Amazing crossover! A small world!

Cool! He was a nice bloke, I got really lucky to find him. I was waiting in traffic and just happen to look out of my window and saw a G wagon with a foreign number plate.

It's amazing that there are people who actually ship their cars all over the world and travel with them. That is just next level tourism. I really hope that shock mount isn't going to pierce through the chassis. The car really needs a repair, both this and a thermostat. How much do you plan to travel in Canada? I am wondering if E46 will last the entire journey without a repair.

Mate these videos are good well worth watching

Wow I never would’ve thought that there’s so much life in that old e46 Beamer. Keep it up the content is great!

E46 are built different 🤣 especially with that M47 diesel they’re tough af

Longer vids please and thank you

Wow, what a great journey! I'ld love to see more about this warrior BMW. I'm so curious about its destiny there! In Canada the car import restrictions are set to 15yrs or less old cars, this should be ok on that front...

Thank you for the comment. I’ve got a fair few other videos now on my channel about the car and its journey. I’ll be doing one soon about trying to import the car and registering it here.

Since I found your channel last week I have been looking forward for the next vid!

Can you make a video about the process of temporarily importing your vehicle?

Hey, the algorithm brought me here and I wasn’t disappointed at all! Can we see new stuff coming like this?

Yes, lots of new stuff. I’m driving this old car to Alaska. I set off from New York City 3 months ago after shipping it from England and drove all around the USA. Make sure to subscribe. Thanks for watching and the comment. :)

@@OlliePennywell Sir, you got yourself a new subscriber 😂, thanks mate.

if your coming through sask atchewan ill buy the beamer lol. no diesel no point as i always say.

That could be a Dr. Who fan with his Tardis replica! Wrong color though... On a serious note, looks like you'll need to weld that shock the sub frame failures are a known fail point.

Turning American - Stopped using the past tense to describe an event and BMW is now British motor works.

did you do any documentary on the ukraine trip? it sounds quite interesting

@OlliePenny

Unfortunately not. It was really interesting. I was over there 6 months doing various stuff with the BMW. It’s why I decided to record this trip, I can look back in the future after I come to realisation at just how ridiculous it was to ship a rusty old car halfway across the world and drive it to Alaska. 😂

when the journey is over it would be cool if you ship the car back to the UK again

@OlliePenny

It really would, I’m assessing my options of what to do with it…

sell me the car before you leave :) ?

Never sell that car. I have a 20 yr old car and it's now a part of me...I just keep hanging on to it, fixing little bits now and then....it just keeps going and going. Besides, with this hyperinflation and corrupt politicians/central bankers...who can afford anything these days.
