Obviously we're biased, but we would absolutely recommend a 924 as an ideal classic car. Compared to other 80's cars, they're very solid and reliable! Thanks for the shout out. We have a huge resource of support for our members.
@bartjanflikkema 4 місяці тому
Compared to other '80 solid and reliable, I have a 1985 190 diesel which has been 100% reliable the past 3 years I own it, but that's probably also the most brick of a car you could have those days anyways. Love the 924 though 👌

@@924oc You could say that indeed. Quality was far superior to what it is today. Nowadays to be honest there isn't much what comes close to that quality. It might sound weird but maybe a brand like Suzuki is closest. Build to last, built to be serviced, maintained, everything has a purpose and is well thought through. Build to be used basically.

I bought a “cheap” Porsche long before they started this series. I agree, don’t buy one unless you’re able to do the work yourself and have lots of spare time to do the work. There’s always something with these cars. However, when they’re not broken, they are amazingly fun to drive.

@Strike86 5 місяців тому
I figured out why I love this series so much - it reminds me of old-school Roadkill. Just a bunch of dudes with a good sense of humour working on a car and trying to do ridiculous things to it in real-world conditions. AKA, how car UKposts should be all the time. Don't change a thing guys, this is magic.
@tbone1975uk 5 місяців тому
You know you could've just missed out this part altogether. But by keeping it and showing just how difficult it can be is really what these 'barn finds' is like. Well done guys!
@UltimateZNooB 5 місяців тому
Top tip: don't just twist bolts you think might snap off due to rusting. Once it moves a little, tighten it back up and repeat. After a little bit of back and forth, the chance of it coming out in one piece is apparrently much better. At least on exhaust manifold bolts, though should work for others aswell.

@Renee_R343 5 місяців тому
Absolutely agree. Years ago I used to watch Car Throttle pretty regularly, but then it quietly kinda faded away and I haven't been watching for over a year. Only a few select episodes. But a few months ago I got back on the train again. Especially love these three together. The overall dynamic and feel of the group is even better than with Alex. Now I can't wait for a new episode of what ever car they are fixing up at the time. My current top 2 channel. During this episode I even caught myself wishing I had friends like that to hang out and work on cars with. Keep doing what you're doing guys, we love it.
@ms-jw3oy 5 місяців тому
So good to see a UKposts channel actually follow through with a project car, keep working on it, and getting it to a place where it's cool and (eventually) works. It feels like Car Throttle is becoming the UK Mighty Car Mods, which is very pleasing.

Starter looks like an old VW type 1,2, 3, or 4 style starter, they go bad on the regular (especially if its a reman with questionable origins). I'd spring for a new high torque version. I'd also check all your ground straps, if its heating up but still working usually means theres a resistance issue.

As someone who has worked on cars professionally for 20 years. I have to say: these gentlemen are doing things right. A clutch job on a 924 is not an easy one. It's a lot of work and that lift they have is not making it any easier. Well done you lot. That's how you say it in England right?
