Using only quality parts you can actually afford, every video comes with links to the parts featured, so you can fix your car simply, cheaply, and confidently.
We like to modify. We like to attend car shows and events. We like older cars. If this sounds like your kinda thing, join the community - like, comment, share, and let’s keep these classics on the road!

Been doing a little investigation regarding the turbo and inlet manifold setup on the A3
Any guesses on power?

🚨 NEW VIDEO LIVE FROM 4PM GMT 🚨
Sooo... we've been putting the rebuilt Audi through its paces and generally enjoying life after the front-end rebuild.
Then the UK heatwave arrived ☀️🥵
The first time I switched the air conditioning on, the Audi decided it had other ideas and promptly dumped all of its gas everywhere 😳💨
Cue a driveway repair in 32°C heat, burning hot bodywork, awkward pipework and plenty of sweating...
If you've ever wondered what old car ownership is REALLY like, this one's for you 😂
I'd really appreciate your support on this one 👊
🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/i3K2veVqxns
Have you ever had a car pick the absolute WORST possible time to break? 😅

🚨 NEW VIDEO TONIGHT 🚨
The rebuilt Audi has developed the classic suspension *CLUNK*… so today we diagnose it properly 🔧
If your car knocks, rattles or clunks over bumps, this video should give you a good insight into:
✅ Common suspension failure points
✅ How to diagnose suspension noises
✅ What worn drop links actually sound like
✅ Why ignoring suspension noises usually gets expensive 😅
You can turn the radio up…
…but eventually curiosity wins 😂
This afternoon on On The Drive 👊
Drops at 4pm GMT

Have you ever used AutoDoc before?
If no, here's a code to net you £10 your first order with them. I've actually set a notification to let me know when the price of a new clutch kit for the mk7 GTD goes down in price, if you can hold on for a bit usually some pretty good savings... :)
Copy and paste this code at checkout: AC104244874

Apologies for not uploading for the last few weeks, work has been full on as has life generally. I have taken the time to sort out the garage, add new racking and storage, throw out a load of hoarded crap so we're in a better place to get back to it. :)
IN OTHER NEWS
I'm currently working on a new project for the channel - collecting bits, driving here there and everywhere. So far I've moved the new project to the garage for filming to start. I've gotta go meet a guy next weekend and we SHOULD be max'd out on parts to start cracking on! Might be a longer video next upload, but please be patient, hopefully you'll enjoy the highs and the lows.

Would anyone be interested in any more abandoned car vids? I know of a few around here might be worth pointing a camera at...
