    I Love the fact you and Mat are such good friends, I’ve seen you in many of his videos helping out and now vice versa, using his name in the title should get you more viewership and potential subscribers and if it does fair play and well deserved. The X3 Competition is a monster I have the X5 version and they are rapid, as long as you don’t buy them brand new as they lose a lot of money to start with, they then become really good value for money with M Performance, yet practical as well. I am looking forward to seeing this completed and you taking it for its first drive. I genuinely think you will be shocked at its performance (and with those new hybrid turbos) it will be a supercar slayer. Keep up the great content 👍🇬🇧

    I wonder why when people are taking these rusty dash frames out that they don't take off the existing rust (which could reveal something to worry about) and paint them with a rust inhibiting paint. It would add to the quality of the build in my opinion. I have seen so many different channels (including Mat Armstrong's channel) which never seem to do this and I feel if I had been helping on these builds, I'd have made a great many of people watching pleased and encouraging others to do the same. Everything else about this video was amazing and very entertaining. I just felt I had to come here and share this query! I'm a mature Canadian Electrical Engineering student (after having served 12 years as an avionics technician in the RCAF) who'd love to be invited to aid on some of these videos. I would have made this suggestion if I was.
