Mat, Charlie here. Again, thanks so much for helping me out. I did not expect it one bit, and I am forever grateful. The 46 will live to see another TF day.

Matt...I'm 64 years old and have followed your channels from the start. They are compulsive viewing and you fully deserve the success you 've achieved...well done mate! 😎👍

Mate you are a class act not only helping the lad that crashed but giving the mx5 away . Top lad mat ,this is why everyone loves you and your content

Matt is a top guy. Always smiling and generous to a fault.

Mk2 vids are getting better every time, you’re such a nice guy, helping people out like that. Wish more people would be like that. It’s inspiring 🎉

Mat Armstrong is like the favorite child of the automotive industry. We all love him because he's just great and awesome.

Never get bored of these vids, genuinely humble, nice guy. Not many about nowadays

Hi Mat I've just turned 64 years old I've been watching your KZfaq channel I found it very useful I've just bought a isuzu duty trooper I've just started to do up for next year I'm planning to go out camping in the back of my truck it's around time I got off my ass and start doing something with my life with out your KZfaq channel I wouldn't be doing nothing thank you Mat for giving me a second chance in life. 🙏🙏🙏

This is how you know mat is a true car enthusiast out of all the cars he could take to the ring and he goes in that mx5 😂

Mat .... sun visor ? .... you got a baseball cap on ... with a visor 😂😂😂

I can’t believe what a gem of a video this has been. From the hysterical giggling as you slipped on the second carousel to helping out a guy like yourself with some cash and then flipping a coin for the MX5 Outstanding Sir, outstanding 🎉🎉🎉

What a legend help a guy out and give away the car... You can tell matts all about the good time and sharing the love of cars.

You're a generous guy Mat. That video was super entertaining and everyone walks away with a smile... apart from the last bit 😅

Mat is so nice, offering to give 1000 towards his tow and cleanup!!

what an amazing episode. Haven't laughed this much in a while. and you are a great man for giving the M3 guy money for his rebuild and to give away the mx5. Even with 1.X million subscribers you still stay grounded, which doesn't happen often these days. keep up what you are doing

I’ve never laughed as much Mat this video has to be one of your best and what a true gentleman helping the other lad out with a UK plate. This is why your the number one guy on KZfaq Mat thank you 😊😊😊😊

😂🤣well done Mat for giving back to people who will absolutely appreciate your generosity. Top man.

Great to see you helping out the car community, great video mat✌️

You just always come away from a Mat video feeling good. Never fails. So much fun going on. Thanks

Matt you are a proper proper human ! Love the energy, the spirit and just the sheer passion !

Exactly why you have blown up.... helping others out is a true talent

Fun times, good to watch you guys having a laugh outside of the garage

That right there is exactly why us car people love cars like we do. It's not just about the cars, it's the amazing people they bring around us and the pure enjoyment of driving. Loved this video Mat, look forward to more challenges like this!

Never have i seen him mad. Always loving every day as its the last. Going above and beyond to help who he can. I just never imagined there was such a person out there until i found your channel. When i am having a bad day and i have had alot of them the last bit i turn on 1 of your channel's and it puts a smile on my face. Thank you for being you.

My first Miata was an NB miata. I now own an NA miata. Between the two, the NB is the better car. Even though miatas have gone up in price here in the states, they're still worth buying and I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a cheap, affordable sports car.

Matt is always amazing given to people what a great person

Such a genuine good guy that Mat, so glad I found this channel, cheers.

I thought you would have gone red for warning lights 😂😂😂

Did you say £1500 MX-5?! FIGHT ME, BRO 🤣

A legend as always Mat. And always so generous and giving.

Absolutely brilliant video Mat m8...Great gesture to help out Charlie with his repair costs and giving the mx5 away too Jordan for free!!!...Laughed all the way thru this video m8...so good to see u all had a great time!!!...Well done on the content m8...can't wait 4 the next video to drop!!!...👍🏻👏🏻

Amazing dude... there are countless videos of guys doing the ring out there but you put your own spin on it and helped people in the process. Loving that youre keeping grounded and genuine.

wow 😂did not expect them both to be given away at the end there haha. heartwarming to see you help the BMW owner out, hopefully he gets it back on the road! amazing video as always

The sticker over all the warning lights ⚰ lmao

What a fella - I was smiling all the way through that vid. You thoroughly deserved all of the plaudits you’re getting mate. Been following you since the S5 build and always look forward to your uploads. Long May it continue! Seen you at Goodwood too but you looked absolutely chocker so left you to it 😂🤣😂🤣 Keep up the amazing work mate #1 on tending before too long I’m sure :)

What a kind man you are Mathew! Loving how much you’re enjoying the ride 👊🏻

Mat you are 1 in a million.....mad respect to you..

Gotta be the funniest one I've seen. Great laugh you guys seem to have. Well done Mat your content is awesome, been watching all your videos for yrs now

This has to be one of my most favourite episodes, funnier than Top Gear! I couldn't stop grinning all the way round the NBR. Good effort!! And then then ending, wow, just wow, your generosity knows no ends! A true legend Mat!! ("Don't gamble!" 😂)

04:40 thats the PPF Frame not setup properly Mat. And that causes the differential not to line up perfectly with the gearbox, which then lets vibrations through the bolts of the gearbox, making this noise :) not harmfull, just annoying... Setting up the frame takes up maybe 15mins...

Hard work beats talent! And giving back is even better 👍🏻loved that video👏🏻

Mat you sir are a Legend! One of the nicest genuine youtubers about 😀👍

Now that's why we love watching your vids matt , Great bunch of guys ,Toni is a legend lovely to see how close you and your pops are .Just a genuine Guy doing what he loves thankyou for letting us share it with you .

My son introduced me to your channel - the first one - I am 70 years old and love cars. You deserve all your success for being so hard working and trying so hard - well done you

Love watching your videos very educational watching from kenya Africa

Mat Armstrong does Top Gear!! 😅

Amazing video !!! This trip to NURBURGRING is awesome . Nothing is missing . Failures (for the BMW) driving under heavy rain . You always try to help people in trouble . It is magic. Well done MAT and thank you.

What an amazingly genuine generous guy. Watched from the very beginning and you haven't changed and appreciate your followers. Top bloke

I'm pretty sure I've seen this kind of video of £1500 cars recently from UK🤔

Mat holding the roof of an mx5 on the Nurberg ring should become a meme 😂😂😂😂 epic video and funniest content so far 👌 🤣 😂

This has to be one of my favorite of all the videos on the channel! How much fun and how funny was this entire trip!

WHAT A GUY!!!! Awesome content and unbelievable generosity. Keep doing what your doing mate 👌🏻 Have a read of your Instagram messages when you get a minute mate. Cheers pal ❤

Showing some balls and commitment there Mat. Keeping that car straight proved that not only are you skilled in the garage, you’re skilled on the track too. Great, just damned great. Loved it!!!

I was smiling throughout this video. Props to the impromptu actor, the rain. Glad you boys didn't fall to the BMW track experience. Glad you got to make some others happy through your generosity. Keep up the stellar work!

you always find a way of leaving me speachless! the Heart on you mate !!! Stay blessed Matt , Much Love From Cape Town ,South Africa.

I bet it has more downforce than the gt3 😂

Mat you are such a good dude! Helping the BMW guys and giving the dude the mx5 is so nice of you! Love your content and been a fan ever since the old bmx days! Really hope I can save up to get driving soon so I can go on mad adventures! Stay good bro

The most selfless and genuine guy out there, always love watching your videos on both channels Matt this was a right laugh watching you rag the MX5 around the ring, great video!

I like turtles

What a legend, love the fact your helping people aswell and living a sick life! I first started watching you when you rode bmx back in the day, same time I used to. A massive well done on what you have achieved bro 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Brilliant 😂 I was laughing all the way through that! You're a good man Mat, helping out those other guys like that. Nice to see you get a bit of a break away too! Keep it coming!

Awesome video Mat! What a bloody laugh. We're in New Zealand so JDM cars are common as mud and from experience they take a hammering better than anything else! Maybe you'll find a couple for projects in the future eh?? :)

Matt you are a man of many talents, KZfaqr, Supercar builder, hair stylist

Mat, I'm a Canadian who greatly enjoys racing, automobiles, and other mechanical objects. I saw many hot rods, classic cars, and race cars. There was a man by the name of Carol Shelby, who was a Texan. He heard about a company in England that would soon need an engine in them because that four cylinder engine was coming in the end of its production. So he went to Chevrolet, which said to him that he wasn't going to be given engines from them. So he went Ford instead. They did send him engines. That first engine was 221 cubic inches, which was bored to the size of 260. That same engine was known as a small block. Why am I typing this to you? That was the first Cobra. Do you know what company it came from? It came from AC Cars over there in England. Did you know it was a secretary's car? Yes, it was. They continue building them. The reason I'm typing this is quite interesting. You should find a V8 engine to put it into that Miata. I know you'll be able to do that work.

So genuine and generous. Great guy. Keep em coming.

Awesome Matt, love watching your videos, just back from work and seen how you have blessed someone in need!! made my day and put a massive smile on my face 🙂

youre legit the most entertaining and fun to watch atm on youtube for me, im legit not watching anybody else lmao. keep it up Mat sending love from Serbia!!

Ah man, the MX5 is one of the all-time greats. That gen maybe not so much...but all credit to Mazda for keeping the fun in diving.

Matt.. your just an amazing guy. Big respect to you and the whole gang. Love your videos.

Mat: "I need me a sun visor, I can't see!" Also Mat: Keeping his cap on reversed

Bro! So inspiring! You deserve every bit of success you have the way you pay it forward. Thank you for the inspiration!

Nachschlag: Wunderbar, dass Du so großzügig bist, den Unfallfahrer zu unterstützen _und_ Dein Cheap-Car zu "verwetten" - und das alles, mit dem Spaß und der Freude die Du hattest. gegenzurechnen. Du bist eine down-to-earth Person; schön zu sehen.

Love the videos 😅 I was waiting for some new content to watch. Hopefully one day I can come and see live how you work 👏 Good luck on everything you do Mat 🎉

A true Legend you are Matt! And those giggles on the track...tooooo dangerous 😂

You are without a doubt one of the best youtubers out there. Always entertaining and informative, with a heart of gold to go as well, please keep them coming Matt, I’ve taken my motorbike round the ring, should I get my 640d F12 there for a try?

Nice work Mat, great to see someone sharing their success

awesome, just awesome!!! i remember back in the day i think we had more fun running around in shitboxs nudging each other at the lights than anything tidy we have now, i think you may well be the only person to put up an mx5 roof whilst driving the ring. helping that guy out with the bmw is just the MA way, youre grounded total petrolhead and in it for the passion not the clicks....and flipping for the mx5 was class..remember kids dont gamble, when the fun stops....... buy another car

Mat you Legend 🙌🙌 the video was hilarious on the ring and then you helping out fellow petrol heads and giving the mx5 away!!! total class & total respect to you 🙏

To answer your MX5 questions: NB's are still kinda sought after (more than the NC but less than the NA). Especially because of the 1.8VVTi engine which was a Ford/Yamaha development (correct me if im wrong please). The NBs are the best to modify and came with the best spec options. Some had Heated seats/diff/air con. And the NB's are the best for autotesting/autosolos (yes, you should do an event). Visor delete: try having the visor there and you'll know why they removed it lol...its very much in the way.

They handle like a dream! I hope you never have imobilizer issues. Can only use used parts. My 2003 spent a month at the dealer to have them tell me they couldn't fix it. Researched it myself for $300 and 20 minutes, up and running.

Mat for the last 6 mths you've been my go to channel, for me its my new TOP GEAR and this vid reminds me of it but with alot more positivity. Great gesture and blokes! Top work!

love the content mate, and always giving back to people , love it mate ,all the best for 2024 ill be watchin !

Awesome video. That was mega of you helping the guy out with his car. I'm going to be 40 at the end of the year and im hopping to get a cheap car and do a ring trip next year. Looks mega.

I'm fkn dying! This is one of the best videos I've seen in a long time! I was laughing all the way to the end. You and your friends definitely are great people with hearts of gold. Love it!

Absolute legend Mat, what a random act of kindness. Glad you enjoyed your trip & it was trouble free motoring 👍

Brilliant vid Matt so good of you.. awesome ring action dude :) that rain section was hysterical. real life legend mate.. Pete

Great video; absolutely loved it. I think I enjoy these videos the most. Great to see you all having a laugh.

I have followed your channels over the years. Nothing but love for all your videos, mate. From one of your Australian fans.

I was literally crying with laughter watching this and your generosity is an example to all of us! Thank you 🙏

Love your videos. Watching from Fort Worth, TX USA. The fun you 2 had driving around the “Ring” made me feel like I was in the car with you. Keep up the great work. Very entertaining. 🎉😂

The world needs more people like Mat! Totally loved this video🔥 and the excitement on the ring though 😅

What a sick video. I love watching you and the lads having a little road trip. Then to end with you giving matey a grand to help out and giving away the MX5... You're a stand up bloke

Absolutely loved this video. You two going round in the rain, trying to get the roof up was making me laugh so much😅 would love for a mk1 mx5 project, I know the cards recently especially are a lot more money, but I think sometimes the cheaper car videos can appeal to a bigger Audience, as they more relatable. I think that’s where wheeler dealers went wrong… just my opinion, thanks for the great content

hoying that mx5 around the ring in the wet, i felt nervous watching nevermind being behind the wheel. props to you ! another great vid !

Brilliant video matt luv how you mix up the content and keep the chanel a must watch

What a guy you are. 👌🏼 enjoying life and helping the community out! ❤

Mat, it is amazing how you're able to make my new favourite video over and over again. I mean, I really love them all. Keep it up!

Lovely video! You have a good heart man! My son and I took a rental Golf 7 on the ring in the same weather and had such a great time!

Non stop fun content! I think road trip video’s should be a more common thing on the channel.. keep up the fantastic work Mat! 👏

Funny how Mat's blaming the car for not having a sun visor, but he's wearing a cap backwards 😂😂
