I bought a rebuilt the cheapest Porsche 718 Cayman S on the internet. There wasnt one single panel which wasn't damaged. The rear quarter, the roof and bumpers all had to be replaced and whilst i was there i upgraded them to GT4 body parts. Now that i have rebuilt it ive decided to bring it to Porsche Solihull for them to inspect my work!

It really shouldn’t matter whether you’re going to a Kia dealership or a Porsche one, you’re still a customer and I think this dealership ticked all the boxes whilst upholding the brand. Plus of course it’s good PR to be on a YT channel with such a good following. Car looks awesome! 👍

@Richard LaCroix not because he's a JPvidr. That's just the media format. It's because he can actually diagnose, fix, design and fabricate parts likely much better than anyone else in any dealership - situations even dealerships wouldn't and can't touch.

@theclutch so can alot of people. They just aren't recognized. The platform is what gives him notoriety. Just because you have a skill set doesn't earn you instant respect.
theclutch
theclutch 4 ヶ月 前
@Richard LaCroix your definition of "a lot of people" is all relative. And the fact that they're not recognized...well, some work at it, some don't, some care, some don't care. Also, your "lot of people", if truly equally skilled, IMO can also hold their head up high and have earned the right to be able to walk into any dealership as well. You're the one equating YT skills with earning the right and pride to do so. Frankly, your comments wreak of jealousy. Having said that, if you knew the amount of work it takes to have his skillset AND also produce great YT content such that he almost has 1M subs and rising fast, you'd appreciate that he should be able to hold his head up high... he grinded it out and worked at it and was not "instant". And lastly, since the above will likely not be enough to have "instant respect", what then, in your wisdom and opinion, would qualify for anyone to be able to walk into any dealership and command respect?

I’ll never forget being 12 years old and on the way from my grandparents, we stopped off at Porsche Towcester, my 9 year old brother was obsessed with cars and we were greeted by one of the sales staff and my dad explained that the young lads loved cars and just wanted to have a look, they said this wasn’t an issue! 5 minutes later the sales staff came back with posters of the new 911, carrera GT and the cayenne for myself and my brother also a couple of pens, key rings and baseball caps ! I’ve currently got an RS7 but my next car will be a Porsche from this dealership! ❤

Given what happened to this vehicle, you did a hell'uva job IMHO! As an military aircraft mechanic I'm well aware of the effort you put in to get the car back to where it was. It'll NEVER be perfect again, anyone can get so detailed/perfectionistic to see that, but it's not damn far off. Bottom line, WELL DONE!

Lol it was never perfect no porsche or car is, i guarantee i could pick issues on all of them leaving the production line. It is very much possible to rebuild a car better than it left the production line . When they leave the line they are just about in spec. i have rebuilt and worked on pretty much every manufactured car built, i would hope in aircraft mechanics your tolerances are alot less than car manufactures are happy with.

Just want to say amazing job on this car. There is so much going technically in a Porsche, the fact that you got so many things right rebuilding is just incredible, and shows what’s possible with some skill and shear drive to make something work. Not sure what your background is, but I would say you’ve got some fantastic skill to make this thing turn out as well as it did, the car was such a mess before, truly impressive….congrats, beautiful car 👍

That Cayman is night and day from how you found it! The signal yellow looks almost tangerine in the video, definitely has a stronger orange component than traditional yellow (especially compared to the seat belts), maybe that is just how it comes across on video - regardless, now that you have done the repair work - it looks sick (inna good way)! Great job here Mat!

Many congratulations on a big thumbs following an inspection at the Porsche Workshop. All your hard work & determination paid off, and you now have a fabulous looking GT4 Cayman that you should be proud of. It was a good idea to delay the alignment check until after the replacement chassis 'brace' has been fitted. Boxsters, Caymans & 911s are all very sensitive to wheel alignment, and having all four wheels aligned properly will make a big difference to how the car feels, responds and drives. Keep up the great work! 👍👍

Great video. I can especially relate to Mat's comment about "feeling like I'm not supposed to be there". I remember feeling that way when I wen to a Porsche dealer while I was in college. Just a young kid with a lot of debt. The staff obviously knew I couldn't afford the cars, but they spent a good hour with me and explained why their cars were special. I've always cherished that first encounter.

Yes and no as most Porsche owners respond well to free vehicle inspections,oil changes,detailing,etc.When they're paying large amounts of money for parts and repairs, they're not all as friendly as Mat.And it doesn't matter which side of the Atlantic they live on.The general rule is "anyone expecting a dissatisfying experience is already on the offensive when they walk into the dealer". If every male Porsche customer was a gentleman like Mat, every interaction would be a positive one. Every dealership has had to deal with a few rude and offensive customers.Porsches are expensive to purchase,maintain and repair and not everyone is as knowledgable and resourceful as Mat.He understands the cost of owning and repairing these vehicles.

It is so interesting and refreshing, especially with tons of car vids out there these days. I've also watched the one on how you made it and I think you are one genuine guy that's worth following for a long time. You are funny, well mannered, hard working, and down to earth.

Hey Mat - just discovered you. Love your content and watched the Lambo project just now. May i ask if it is planned to put in a rollcage and fire suppression system? If not i think it would really be nice especially with such a crazy fast car. A big car guy in Germany (Philip Kaess) lost his build 1000hp Limo to engine fire - a fire suppression system would've probably saved most of the car.

Take a typical 50,000 mile 6 year old example of any car into a main dealership for a 'by the book' inspection, and they will find various stuff wrong. I reckon this is car is in the same ballpark overall as any similar age and mileage example that's been used hard. Considering what you started with, it's amazing work. Fair play to you.

I’ve never had a bad service experience at any Porsche dealership. After using multiple locations, they’re always very nice and accommodating, whether you want to be treated like someone who knows nothing or you want to see your car on the lift. Of course I’ve had Porsche service chase down some gremlins once in a while and it’s never fun to wait for your car and all that…. But that’s not the fault of the service team itself… they’ve always been great to me. That said, I work on my Ferrari myself LOL

Mate really hope you manage to get the gt3 fixed for a decent price ,I own one as well and someone like you deserves to enjoy a car like this , the hard work will be worth it in the end. Ps , another thing to look forward too is that you won’t have an opf monitor on the US car so when it comes back to the uk you won’t have any issue in putting on a full exhaust like I did and have to mess about with remaps, (I went with just a back box in the end ),I would recommend jcr. Good luck and I look forward to the progress on the next vid!

I enjoyed this a great deal. Thank you! I'm not mechanical at all but I recognize what hard work is. We've been rebuilding our personal saw mill here on our farm in Arkansas, US. Thanks again I'll add you for sure.

Someone like you... We are all customers. You are a decent, hardworking guy. That is you. Only recently found your channel, into bikes more than cars, but love a M5. Enjoying watching your back catalogue.

Echo that. Any of us who like performance vehicles got there through hard work. Nobody gifts us these things, you’ve to graft, then it’s really satisfying to see or even to own something special.

Hi Mat. How do the Kumho tyres hold up on this? The go-to tyre is Michelin and they so provide awesome grip and feedback but always been a fan of Kumho and wondering whether to give them a try over the Michelin

The car is gorgeous. I was meh about the colour and wing when he was doing the work but it's really come together well and I've changed my opinion now.

This is my favourite car so far I think. There's something about these 718s that I really like, especially with the GT4 body-kit on. I also thought I'd say just how impressed I am with the feedback given by Porsche on it. Considering how wrecked it was, to have Porsche inspect it and give such positive feedback is amazing. Just highlights how much of an awesome job Mat has done on it.

That was probably the best video I've ever watched about rebuilds so professional and they where such sports at the dealership what a classy bunch it was a genuine welcome and interest from them Looking forward to the wheel alignment video Regards Haley

Love your channel and your energy. The Porsche tech made a great point about wearing eye protection. I know it may not be the best while filming but from experience I can tell you it’s a lifesaver. Please wear eye protection so you can keep fixing cars and living your dreams and not get hurt. Best to you and wish I was in the UK to have a chance to meet you. Maybe you can tour the US one day 👍
