I love buying crash damaged cars! The thought of being able to buy your dream car for a fraction of the price and learn so much about it whilst you rebuild and restore it is amazing to me. I went to Copart to look at some more potential projects including a Porsche 911 GT3, a Bentley Continental GT & more! Question is which one do i buy?

I work on Porsche’s for a living and I can promise you that you will never regret owning a GT3. I genuinely can’t name a better Porsche for you to buy for the price, the sound, the experience, and just the feeling of hearing that engine scream at 9k rpm’s while you’re driving around the track. Genuinely an amazing experience on its own

Mat - the channel is excellent. There's a nice balance of technical and enthusiasm. I greatly admire your mindset in the amount of research you put into aquiring the parts and fixing up the cars. As for this project, get BOTH the Bentley and the GT3. Hannah will thank you for it and you know that Bentley's nagging at the back of your mind. But .... the opportunity of that GT3, in a gorgeous blue shouldn't be missed. You'll look back and say "I wish I'd bought that ... when I had the opportunity".
Hi Mat, your energy and enthusiasm to keep doing this is inspiring. You seem like a top bloke who is very humble.

Im sure the GT3 has rear wheel steering, keep that in mind Mat, then again its deffo a journey to watch and no doubt must be a wholesome experience to work on different machines with different specs for a living. Living the dream dude, keep at it.
Keep buying! And keep up the great videos! I love all the content you keep putting out every week! Hope you picked up the GT3!
GT3 (it's a flat 6 by the way not a straight 6) LOVE THIS EPISODE! And you two have great chemistry.
The Bentley - convertibles have what’s called a ROPS - roll over protection system. So upon impact if it was to flip, that shoots out at the back as you have no B pillar to protect you
Love to see that GT3 being repaired by you Matt. Get on it.
Really love seeing you and Hannah hanging out and joking and laughing!
Awesome vid Mat, definitely a hard choice between the GT3 and W12. Keep up the sick vids 🤙🏼
Man, love your positive energy and passion for your craft. Really enjoy your content.
I love Hannah she is a savage with her one liners, she needs to be more in the videos !
This variant of the GT3, absolutely stunning! And I don`t think the Porchse will run you more than 30k in repairs and it will have a higher residual value at the end of the day.

Only the rotors in ceramic can cost 20k. maybe the back ones for only 8k....
As a rough guestimate, the gt3 is into 60k plus repair... dependent on the pillar. Bear in mind the materials used in the construction and methods required to repair it.
Was literally just watching salvage rebuilds uk and rob was looking at these cars through the fence and here we are ahah
Hands down the GT3. In my opinion it’s a better car for your channel as the community clearly likes the Porsche content, plus that gen of GT3 was amazing. The Bentley is really nice and to have that W12 engine would be awesome as nowadays that kind of engine is starting to be a thing of the past, but… come on, it’s a Porsche 911 GT3 for god sake, get that!😂

You cant compare the normal Cayman with this GT3. The Sound is killing it at 9000 rpm and its 1 of the best Sportscar ever.
I used to do this myself. I would stay away from airbags personally .. but it seems you have fixed quite a few and have all that figured out. Also depending on the structural damage, we would use a “frame machine” (not a real frame machine) but had it almost down to a science. Cheers mate, keep up the good work . Get a 1st gen McLaren F1 if you can. I believe that’s the ultimate machine!
The best part of this video was the protective glasses and the high-vis. Made everything Hannah and Matt said seem so officially scientific 🤓
Love your delivery - your enthusiasm is infectious - I was there with you on the crash damage reccy of each vehicle - that’s the beauty of watching your vids Keep up the tip top work loving the Hannah interaction Bentley for me it’s beautiful- but I’m old

Exactly what i was thinking
With the remarkable direction GT3 prices have gone (and continue to go) there is really no debate. Don't get excited about the CGT interior quality, it is actually only skin deep with cosmetic improvements over the last gen but the actual substance and build was better in the earlier models. (You prob got all hung up at the moment and i am sure you do know, but you were often referring to the Porsche as a straight six). Voting for the GT3.
Matt I love the Porsche 911 GT3 it is such a amazing car and a beauty too! BUT I feel like I’m going to have to go with Hannah on this one. I think you can do something really nice with that Bentley and it will be abit different to your current fleet of cars. Much love keep up the amazing work 💯
@Mat, can't wait for the day you hit a million subscribers. 💯 The excitement I get everytime I get a notification that uploaded a new video
911 is by far the toy to have. The lunch control is simply amazing, the way it looks blows your mind then the sound omg it’s heaven ❤
Matt is such a upstanding guy😚,Great he pushing the parameters on his purchases lol..He doesn’t just buy cars he ‘Dates them’ lol..Enthusiasm comes across,We the Petrol head fraternity luv all things cars.Luv the Bentley wow Quality Supersedes everything Great Channel peace🕊
omg do it. that GT3 is dream car material right there.
Matt, it’s got to be the Bentley, just has that touch of class ! The GT 3 is stunning but the Bentley tweaked with a touch of Armstrong subtle styling oooooooooooh I’m dribbling at the thought 😍
Loving the show Matt, you could go onto FX, or Hulu just like Welcome to Wrexham. I'd go for the Bentley, that Mulliner interior is something else.
Love the channel Mat. I've watched nearly all the rebuilds. I would love to see a damaged transporter or maybe ford custom in the future. Could rebuild to a camper.
You Matt and Hannah have made become a petrol head. I discuss your channel with all the guys on site now. Love everything you do its so exciting to watch x
That Bentley though…. You need Bentley redemption!!! Maybe you could convert it into a hard top?? I have no idea lol. Don’t get me wrong, the Porsche is nice too. Hannah’s always got great taste in cars 👌
Hi Mat, I saw that GT3 listed on the Copart auction. Fingers crossed you have bought it, as dead interested in seeing you work your magic! 👍👍

Great video Mat. That GT3 is very cool. 70th anniversary decals too, nice 👌
Definitely the GT3. That engine is just next level, especially if you get an aftermarket exhaust. I’d definitely say Dundon Motorsports sounds the best on the 4.0.
Just get both of them!! That Bentley is breathtaking and the Porsche is a dream. Load them up and take them home. The content you can make out of these two builds👌
I’d go for Porsche. That’s been on my personal bucket list for a while now. You can wake battery with low voltage thru license plate lights and then open the bonnet. Cheers, Mat!
I'll definitely go for the Bentley, that spec is one of a kind.

Great Vid as always. Bentley gets my vote im with Hannah. Whats the music tracks you used love the first one as it pans to the porcshe. Cant wait until the next vid.
The Bentley is a great colour combo but I do think you'd get more out of the Porsche, including headaches😀, as well as content. Saw the Aston on the A46 heading towards Lincoln last Friday lunchtime, only for a second or two but it looked great in the red👍
I'd go for the Bentley because that's the car you wish you never got rid of plus Hannah likes it, happy wife happy life 👍
11:58 100Nm of torque is normal for doing up a centre-lock nut and normal wheel nuts! also they dont use a huge long breaker bar to get it off there is a thing called a battery operated impact wrench.
Love how that Bentley dash wraps around into the door like one continuous piece. Hope you buy it.

Recently found your channel Mat and loving it! Keep the content coming! 👍
As I am really a Bentley guy, I would normally say: Take the Bentley. But honestly: The roof will cost you a lot to repair or replace, as well as the front fender holding structure and, as you said, the dashboard. Because this car is pretty new, it might be more expensive than your last Conti GT. Because of that, I would tend to the Porsche. It's pretty cool, the damage seems to be repairable for a budget that seems to be okay. And hey, it's a GT3. As soon as I have repaired my repair shop, I'll go and try to make some things work on my mostly burned Continental GT. Greetings from Germany Flying Bee
Matt, awesome content . Highlight of the week . Question , ever thought of doing a viewers daily driver with a makeover ? Thousands would love that. Would make great content also. Would gladly offer up my Jag XF . Keep up the great work. Been following since the start.
GT3 the way to go, love my Porsches. On my 5th one, Cayman R with IPD Plenum, GT3 throttle body, Ohlins all round, Cargraphic power pack plus Tech Art trick stuff 👍Fun on Brands Hatch last week. 😁
The Bentley 🔥 🔥
Mat, the Bentley is sick!!!! It would be nice to see a convertible on the show... The interior is beautiful 👌
looking at the tyres at 11:04 it doesn't appear to have been on track at the point of impact because the tread kind of gets sticky & beads to the edges of the tyre on a track and you can tell afterwards.
Judging by my former Bentley Turbo R if you get a Bentley to scream you possibly get to hear the clock purring. But I suspect that the modern Bentleys have possibly given in to the current trend of wailing, with the driver pretending that he is Stirling Moss, as immaturity sweeps the nation following routine attendance at playground universities. Leaving school at 14 (like my father) has been usurped by 24 years. Hannah is unusually mature and quite classy. Best rely on her judgement if you have any mature customers. She recognises an exceptional sterling mixture of both vehicle quality and pampering class - the Bentley!
It makes me so happy to see this channel is growing big so fast! Well deserved man!
Hey Mat , I think the Porsche 911 is the car to go for . It’s one car here in South Africa we’d choose over the Bentley 😅
The soundtrack is what keeps me watching till the end ❤️❤️❤️
New subscriber here, glad you held of on this GT3 that purple one with less damage and no miles is a much better find. Congratulations.
Another great video. Hope you buy the GT3, it's a great motor, and Hannah will surely love it eventually :-) You guys rock, don't ever change.
The porsche is definitely the more anticipated and exciting project. It’ll be more enjoyable to drive than the Bentley too. Keep up the good content mat!
Bentley for every day use and Porsche for fun. Perfect combination.
Sound on the gt3, but fan of the brand bentley. Chemistry of you both is fun to look at, greetings from me and my wife, both watching your channel from NL.
If i was able to do what you do Mat. I would get the gt3 as I imagine you wanted one before you got the cayman s. Then once the cayman s is finished raffle it off and put the money towards fixing the gt3. Keep up the good work man. Love the work and videos
