My 2007 Audi R8 V8 has had a tough life. Ive fixed it and modified it and it was time to take it on its first roadtrip which would be over a 2000 mile round trip to Scotland.
The NC500 is Scotlands answer to the Route 500. Amazing mountainous roads twisting across the coast of Scotland, some roads are single track and without a petrol station or in-fact anything in sight for miles! I took my Audi R8 up to Scotland to tackle the roads but did it make it!?

Mat, can you confirm that you didn't break any Covid regulations whilst filming this video? You do not strike me as the kind of person that would, but if you could clarify this for your subscribers it will put an end to the murmuring in the comments.Clearly you had accommodation booked so it all looks above board.

Hi Matt, I'm an old petrol head, but I really love your enthusiasm for your cars. I'm fae Glasgow, and having watched a few of your videos I'd say your a bit of a fanny. A lovable, likeable fanny, but still a fanny, and that's probably as close to a compliment you'll get fae me! I've done the Stelvio pass a few times and the NW500 reminds me of that plus it's is only three hours away from where I live. After watching your video it makes me more determined that I'll be looking to cross that of my bucket list very soon. Cheers, and all the best mate.
came for the cars, stayed for the wholesome example of a what a great person is

They both get paid for their “troubles”. Paid a shit load as well I would imagine.
I'm definitely not your target demographic but your ambition to take on new projects with all the enthusiasm that you have is massively commendable.

Yes I’m converted too! Never thought I’d enjoy the vids as much as you I do!!
First TIME EVER I’ve watched a Mat vid on my 60” tv. Made even more epic by the opening shots. Each vid gets better as Mat gets better at shooting & editing.
"The 2020 award for best automotive KZreadr goes to.........Mat Armstrong!!" Cheers for the memories you gave us all mate this year, superb channel and brilliant entertainment. Best wishes to you and Hannah for an amazing 2021, continue living the dream guys!!
Your filming skills are on point 👌👌
Scotland has some of the best driving roads in the world! EVO went to the Scottish Borders to test and decide on their car of the year 2020 because of the quality driving roads!

This is something brilliant ..... So glad I came across it on this video
This has made me feel so homesick. I am from Edinburgh and I have been stuck in Vietnam with my wife and baby since February due to Covid-19. My wife and I got married in January 2020 in Scotland and we did the North Coast 500 as our honeymoon. It was the most incredible experience with great roads, hotels, food and people. Thank you for the video. It has made me cry and bring me closer to home than I have felt in months. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Amazing! Thank you for showing off my beautiful country so well! You are an inspiration to everyone and for everything in life! Well done Matt keep smashing it every day!
The roads in Scotland are terrific, I am old enough to have driven them on numerous occasions, before speed cameras were invented.
God's country mate. I'm scottish n whenever we travel up north I fall more in love with the place. Looks, a great trip. ❤️🏴
That final speech was absolutely wonderful, cheers for you mate, you rock
Matt, you are the child in all of us, and we love you. You have made many a fantasy come true and in 2021 mine will also come true, inspired by you. May you, Hannah and Kevin has a great chirstmas break.
Mat: “just look at these roads, - there’s just no one about” ( that’s because think it might be illegal at the moment Mat! Ha ha!) beautiful mate, did it in the early eighties, need to back there god willing 🙏🎅🏼👍

Shallow water over white sand = turquoise water. Superb part of the world up there. Glad you all enjoyed the trip. Happy Christmas Mat and Hannah - Kevin too. I've loved, loved, loved your channel mate. You really are an inspiration. Roll on another year of this series, you're a class act. Peace Out.
Such a genuine guy, so normal and down to earth. Wish you all the success. Keep aiming high Mat
Scotland is so underrated,.so stereotyped in films, it's one of my favourite places!!
That ending got me right in the feels man, keep on keeping on Mat.
Wow! What a video, what scenary and obviously what a car! Cinematics and editing are superb 👌. You deserve all the success that comes your way Mat. Here's to 2021 and the channel becoming even more successful!
"Look at that manscpaed' HAHA that got me!
Great to see a more personal side on the content. Top class as always!
Matt- you're going from strength to strength. Top lad!!
Made my Christmas, a once in a life time trip, such a nice down to earth guy, keep it up 😌
Thanks for promoting and appreciating Scotland....the place I live and love, albeit my front splitter survived the the whole NC500:) Come back again in the summer!Daylight until nearly midnight and you can enjoy those beaches a bit more. Thanks again buddy, Keep up the motivation and inspiration.
You're a top bloke Matt. Merry Christmas and a happy new year
New presenter of Top Gear in the making. Smashed it as always. Thanks for making 2020 that little bit more bearable. Truly looking forward to seeing your 2021 projects 🤜🏾
Lovely speech at the end, some of us just needed that nudge in the right direction.. thanks and god bless everyone.
Mat should be on Top Gear instead of dire McGuiness. He's right about the moment. The 90s was peak driving for me but you never appreciate it at the time. Now I'd give anything to live it again.
What a moment for us all. Its been great following you on this journey. Thank you for just being awesome and for the inspiring words. Happy Xmas guys 💖
Awesome Matt! 👍
Great stuff, Mat! That Applecross road is great, especially without the summer traffic, motor homes etc. All the very best to you, Hannah and Kevin for 2021.
Thanks for the inspiration! Wishing you all the best for next year! Keep on following your dreams! It's great to be able to follow you on the journey. Thanks for taking us with you!
This video never gets old. Good job Mat
The B Roll, the music and of course the car. All brilliant
Having done a Scottish road trip last year, this video brought all those memories back! Your channel is brilliant, it’s been a great distraction from reality this year and I cannot wait for MA’21. Thanks for the content and thanks for reminding me of how much I miss Scotland!!
Bucket list road for me - no doubt!
More happy to see Kevin joining in the fun. Great video Mat.
Amazing roads, my wife and I did that trip a few years ago and it remains one of our favourite road trips ever.
Mat. Your film making skills are remarkable and should be highlighted. You have come so far in a few months into where you are today. Huge congrats.
This was awesome!!!! 🤛🏻❤️
Amazing Mat 🙌🏻
Just seems like a good dude!
pleasure to watch and fantastic journey from start to finish
Brilliant video, love it!
Hands down best KZreadr atm, contents mint been watching for about 8 months and it just keeps getting better 🙌🏼 nice one Matt!
Amazing video! Brilliant message! Thank you Mat.
Class Mat , all the best
I'm glad to you got to experience those roads in Scotland, I hope I can get back up there next year. Also, i really admire your positivity. Best wishes for the future.
Omg the scenery is amazing ,top job matt
Hope everyone had a festive day yesterday, brilliant video as always mate, feels like it’s a old video with the travel videos 🤩, visuals are so good too!!!
As a 60 year old I find your videos very interesting. I wish you all the success in the future 😊
Great video again, keep it up Mat 🔥🔥
Matt filming skills👌
Plenty more to see on the west coast besides the NC500....... You'll have to come back Matt in the summer. It's twice as good!
Glad you enjoyed Scotland mate love the effort you put in to making your video the little speech at the end too in a tough time will touch so many people
Matt I'm having a really tough time right now. But your words at the end gave me a little lift. Thank you
Thank you for coming to Scotland.Love your videos and your attitude to life. Keep on rollin’. Stay safe.
How good this video is.
Amazing dude! Keep it up !
What a guy, what a channel, absolute pleasure to watch! Keep them coming Mat, can’t wait to see the Liberty walk Maserati!
LOL I could see my house from when you were saying you're already in Scotland. Can't believe you were so close. Abington lol
Gotta say Mat, your editing is seriously impressive on this video and the drone shots give it that edge. Nice one.👌 Hannah’s definitely a keeper.
Manscape in North of Scotland in mid Winter????? Whatever next? Leather boxer in mid Summer in Africa🤣🤣🤣 Interest6ing drive Mat, throughly enjoyable video. Thanks for cheering me up as I enter my 10th month of lock up! Have a great 2021 and I hope you get to and well beyond 200k subs. Greetings also to Hannah and Kevin. Cheers Bob
Awesome video mate! It is so nice to see someone with a car like that to do a 'proper' trip about the UK somewhere, proper UK weather, UK roads, just generally enjoying what the UK has to offer rather than all glam and money abroad somewhere! Keep it up dude, awesome stuff. Looks like all 3 of you thoroughly enjoyed it!
My partner and I hired a camper van and took on the north coast 500. It was amazing and the views were unreal. We also went the Bealach na Ba route. Doing it in a camper van was very nerve racking, with on coming traffic to navigate and the very real danger of slipping off the road as edges of the road blend in with the mountain. I get anxiety just thinking about it. It really is a crazy pass and not for the faint of heart. Defo for the car enthusiast. I would love to try it in a car! Great video Mat and the car looks amazing.
Looks an awesome drive, love the video 👍
Loved this video, great filming, great guy, all the best for 2021 Mat.
Matt, I’m a Sheffield lad living in Australia and much older than you. To be honest I’d given up on your generation to some extent but you are so positive, inspiring and uplifting, I can’t stop watching your videos!! The wife is sick of you 🤣 You really are a legend and a great video editor. Keep up the great work, you’ll be a huge success and you’ve even got me thinking of wrapping my own car!! Top bloke!

THE BEST TRIP VIDEO I'VE SEEN!!! EVER!! THANKS MAT!
What a good lad Mat is. I watch the vids randomly and I love the content, but I also think he is just a good human being.
love that r8 + those roads look unreal! Merry Crimbo!
Omg Matt what a stunning drive and the roads are to die for... The R8 looks sick...👍
Rixx from the colonies. Dude, love your Audi and I wish I could have been the winner of it to drive these road of the US. You also inspired me. Thanks.
Drove that road back in 1974 but went up the west coast then across the top and down to Inverness in a Bedford Dormabile 7 of us camping gear and all. Still a life highlight today almost 50 years later have a wonderful 2021 and by the way Kevin is the perfect name for Kevin
P.a happy Christmas Mat & Hannah & Kevin ..thanks for all the enjoyable vids this crappy year we’ve all had. I’ve looked forward each week to the next instalment of your car adventures. Hope 2021 brings more new cars & more new mods.
Love you man. Your work z amazing. I can't stop watching your videos watching all the way from Zimbabwe
Beast mode dude. Kevin's ace. Have a great crimbob.
Fantastic video. They just get better and better!
No words Mat, incredible👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Just one of the best parts of the world. And some great music choices. Nice one ❤
Thanks Matt, loved the road trip, superb cinematic’s along with great narrative👍
Legend !!!
absolutely brilliant video once again Mat. You should have done this in 2 parts !! I believe everyone will agree with me that we wanted to see some more of this trip. Hope you have an even better year !
Great job mat, scotland is great, glad you enjoyed it. All the best for you, hannah and Kevin!
Awesome, 2020 antidote, kudos.
Cheers Matt, another great video!
Love this video!
Absolute quality of a video, production value is impeccable!!
Amazing video Mat. Excellent footage!!! Keep up the great work!!!!
This is beautiful! Life goals. Well deserved mate. Keep it up 💯👌
Taking a low car on the NC500 is always fun. Took my 350z up there last year and google maps sent us over a mountain to get back to the main road. Barely made it back with everything underneath still attached! Good times
Merry Christmas from New Zealand Mat. Taking Kevin along for the drive was awesome! If you ever get a chance to get to NZ ill gladly go on a road trip with you in my Audi S5.
