I was so close to complete the Mclaren 720s rebuild before Christmas but i have a vaild excuse on why i wasnt able to... in the meantime ive taken a trip to Copart to collect a new project car then headed over to @REPerformanceUK to collect my Twin Turbo Gallardo after some work.
Thanks to @TopazDetailing for sorting the Lamborghini Murcielago out!

This has to be the first automotive channel where the second channel is as entertaining as the main channel. Well done Matt...
I forgot I was watching the second channel until reading this
I definitely like dde’s second channel. It’s a little more mellow than their main channel.
Got to agree. Hopefully it doesnt end up like dde’s.. sometimes i feel like they make videos just to make videos and that can get boring watching them talk about nothing .
3 in total..? Guy's busy doing good content
Mat armstrong is your new build is and audi R8
Great to see you mate! Have a lovely Christmas and thank you for trusting us with the Gallardo! ❤️❤️
Wouldn't trust you with a lawnmower
@@angrypants7619 good job you'll never be able to afford to use them anyway isn't it 😊
@@angrypants7619no worries! When you are rolling around in Supercars you can choose not to use us!! 👍🏼
😂
@@REPerformanceUK😅😅 excellent comeback! 👏
Thanks for the love Mat it’s been great fun building your lambo over the years! ❤ Have a good Xmas and hopefully come up for a tea next year. 😘
Ferrari Purgasaurus lol. Maybe a better name than Ferrari chose…. Definitely think you made it. Can’t let Hammond be right…😀
I respect Ferrari for always doing Italian names and never giving a damn who can pronounce them or not.
@ It just sucks they had to sue a charity to be able to use the name Purosangue
@@lotni Didn't know about that. I just know about the stupid "pureblood" translation controversy, where it should be "thoroughbred".
@ Oh yeah, I remember hearing about that. And the the fact that they sue so many people is ridiculous. It's always over something stupid
In Italian language "purosangue" is the opposite of the english word "bastard" usually used for animals likes horses. I think you can find the right translation
Thank you, Matt and the team! Wishing you all wonderful holidays with your family and friends. Thanks for a year of fun. You make us feel part of your adventure! Until next year!🤙🏻
Thanks for all of your hard work this year creating some of the best content on YT
Glad you enjoy it!
There is no better content on Utube. Happy Holidays
Btw mat a variable resistor should work on the leds
I watch a lot of content, your edits and story telling ability is second to none. Wishing you all including Kev a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New year. I'm excited to see your channel surpass the rest.
Thanks for all the videos this year Mat. It’s been great to watch the channel grow. Some of the best automotive content on KZhead imo. Happy Christmas.
Matt & the team , you’ll never know how much joy you bring us people who view your vlogs ! You guys deserve everything you achieve making these vlogs, thoroughly enjoyed the ones posted this year………… onwards and upwards in 2024 👏🏽
Merry Christmas mat too you and your family thank you For a awesome year of of incredible updates on your channel. From South Africa 🇿🇦
I hope everybody had a merry Christmas and a very blessed day, Matt Armstrong. I love your KZhead channel. You have an inspired me and gave me the encourage just to start working on my own projects where back then I thought people would just talk about me where they’re just gonna talk about me anyway. Love the way you hold yourself up man keep it up. Thank you for building my encourage back up to do what I love. Have a blessed day to everyone.
I like the fact that they ran the intakes from the turbos to the rear upper fender (or wing) vents on the Gallardo. And that they put enclosed air filters with that duct work that goes up to those top fender grilles. And the center exhaust with dumps looks awesome. I think the factory air boxes have duct work that goes to those rear top grills so well done lol. Gotta make it factory or better I always say lol. Happy Holidays 🎄
Merry Xmas Mat and team, hope you all have a great time with friends and family. Looking forward to your content for 2024.
Merry Christmas Mat and no worries about the McLaren!! You did your thing and at least you got it started and running.. That alone is a victory. Enjoy your holidays 🎄🍾🥂🎉..
A great Christmas present. Thank you for all your hard work. Looking forward to seeing the team again next year. Merry Christmas 🎉
Great seeing the old crew back together in you're videos love you're content but it was always great when Liam and Chris were there to all hours on you ambitious builds, Also love the input from your dad Tony he brings a wealth of knowledge and good laughs
The Gallardo is so sick🎉 Congratulations on an epic year. Happy Christmas to you all.
Thank you Mat for all the great content this year and I hope you have a great Christmas! 🎄
love these laid back videos it’s a quality watch and always has me laughing merry Christmas matt
Merry Christmas to everyone @MA. I reckon I’ve spent as much time watching both channels as I have normal tv over the last 6 months. It’s been epic. Looking forward to see what you get up to in the new year 👍👏👏👏👏👏
your second channel is such a gem cause we love you so much we wanna see everything that you get up too everyday 😂😂👌🏾
To stop the flickering a capacitor might work. A Capacitor is like a water reservoir for but for electricity. So, if you have messy power coming in, it will flow evenly out the other side of the capacitor.
Or a resistor
Merry Christmas Matt, to you and yours! You truly are a bleedin' Legend! 🎄 🎉
Needs a resistor
Capacitor is the correct component to smooth the electrical energy and stop the flashing, a resistor will only reduce the current flow.
@@natedostalik3538 Yea, I've heard of "anti-flicker" resistors alright, but I don't really understand how they'd fix the problem (even though they apparently do), unless maybe the input voltage was too high, or it was spiking? Since resistors basically just lower the voltage and current in the circuit. Whereas a capacitor is more like the cold water storage tank in your attic, so that you get a constant flow of water, and you don't get scorched if somebody runs the tap when you're in the shower..
Thanks for an amazing year Matt loved watching you just grow and your videos get better and better hope you have a lovely Christmas and new year can’t wait for the next video🎉
Merry Christmas Mat from the other side of the pond! Hope you and your family have a wonderful day and keep up the great content! 100% look forward to your videos and always find myself learning something and being inspired to be myself an try. Thank you for being a positive role model for us folks truly. Cheers Brother!
The flickering thing happens on motorbikes too. Grab an Oxford indicator resistor from a motorbike shop and you'll be set. Also with LED strip's, if you rough up the silicon cover of the strip, it will give a more even light along the length instead of individual lights. Love the videos, keep it up mate, you've inspired me to get cracking on my TT
I have this flickering with my Angel eyes in my Peugeot 206 they are wired in via “parking” lights do you reckon i need a resistor in it to?
If the parking light loom is configured for higher power delivery than then lights need (like from Halogen or Xenon to LED) a resistor typically fixes it. Resistors are usually pretty cheap, so I'd recommend giving it a go@@Ginokhu
Nice work man keep it up 👍
Happy Xmas to you all Matt....these vids are just brilliant... Love the positive attitude.
Merry Xmas to you and the team, I’ve loved watching your vids this year, they are very entertaining. I can’t wait to see what you come up with next year!
Love the vids mate
Matt, cracking year, I have a well deserved break, bring on the new year.
Glad you kept the back end of the Lambo open. Looks the biz with the new pipes and painted turbos!! 👍 For the light flickering, try putting a relay in between. That should habe enough resistance for the Lambo control circuit to "look" like a bulb.
Happy holidays guys. Love ur content so much. I was middle of work but I left it to see ur video 😂😂 Work can wait. Mat’s videos can’t 😌❤️ Much love guys ❤❤
Thanks Matt for another great year of entertainment, you should really have your own tv channel . Thank you Matt 🎉
Thanks mate!
Never work for a tv channel ! Now you can make your own choices .....
Amazing I have a caliber 12 Monaco, what’s the cost of the same service on that
Keep up the great work Matt! Whether you won the bet or not, we're all here to see the final product :)
Hey folks these creators are just so inspiring... hoping after you enjoy this content and between the wait time for their new uploads you may want to help us gain some traction on our content at Father and son Ferrari rescue. Ferrari 458 salvage rebuild see how it goes so you can do this yourselves one day too!! Thanks in advance everyone.
Another fantastic video, been a fantastic watching load of great builds this year, looking forward to new years episode and what the new year brings, all the best. 👍
Merry Christmas to Mat and the team, your content is really the most entertaining thing I have found. Great to see you interacting with Hammond, it's a really nice aspect of 'toobers that you can do whatever collabs you want to. Thanks to, I have found Chris Slix, Ratarossa, and more
I always loves your videos Man ❤❤
Petition to have Mat talk in an American accent for the next vid
The world don't revolve around america
Thanks for blessing us all year with some quality entertainment! Have a good Christmas and look forward to what’s to come 👍
Happy holidays to you Mat and looking forward to the new year for more video's
I think the Gallardo should get a rear bumper back on (give it a christmas present!), those tyres are going to throw so many stones up at whoever is unlucky enough to be following you.
New build is a 997 gt3, im calling it
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and yours Mat. Keep the videos coming
From the moment i found your channel ive been hooked, amazing content this year. Have an amazing xmas Matt
Merry Christmas Mat, Hannah, Tony, The Crew & Kevin. The LED's are not going to stop flickering. Always drive LED products using an LED power supply that's designed for the job. ... Make sure all your LED products are compatible with the control circuits and power supply you're using.
U copied that shit straight off the first result from google 😂 hahaha
@@Rekoyl116 correct after reading the instructions i had for a LED light kit from my sons old Peugeot which said it needs the power supply then i looked up Mat's lights which were for a home insulation I.E mains current (AC) but he is running them on 12v DC that was the clue that he needs a controller that led me to GOOGLE and less typing.🤣🤣🤣
You can wire a ballast load resister across the positive and negative of the leds to trick the system into thinking a bulb is still in there
@@leonsavern5729 Ah yes like some idiots have done to get rid of airbag lights on a dash I knew I had seen something with resistors but just couldn't remember exactly were.
The "electricians charging grandma's joke" had me laughing out loud. 🤣
Thank you for all the amazing content throughout the year! Happy holidays! 🎄❤
Amazing work mat and your team was waiting to see how the car looked good work
First!
Merry Christmas!! Thank you for everything that you do! I hope you have a wonderful holiday!
Awsome man looking forward to the new videos merry christmas boyo all the best for the new year 👍🏻
Hi mate yes deffo on the resistors I was trying to send you the picture of the ones I ordered 4 for a tenna off Amazon . Great vid loved seeing it really come along .merry Christmas.
Merry xmas to you ,hannah n all your loved ones ...haf a great time ..love your channels ,take care n stay safe..❤❤❤
Brilliant year for you Mat and the team. Happy Christmas, can’t wait for Next Year

Merry Christmas to all your family and friends mate, thanks for an awesome year of content. Cheers from Australia 🍻🎅🏖
Massive Merry Christmas to all involved with the Channel. By far my favourite channel on KZhead!
Merry Christmas mat and Hannah and dad all have good Christmas from Australia.i have feeling gt3 on its way 🎉keep up great content love it
Just found your channel and am already excited. Subscribed
Happy Christmas matt thank you for all your videos
add a capacitor in parallel between the negative and positive pin of the led, this will keep the voltage stable
Merry Christmas and Happy New year to you, Hanna and the rest of the crew.
Excellent content as always mat merry Xmas to you hannah and Kevin and your dad all the best for the new year just a thought for your competitions how about a day with you at the unit I'm sure most fans would love a chance to visit
Great watch once again. Car looks amazing. Merry Christmas🎉
Hi Matt. Best case install a capacitor to stop the flickering. But if the LEDS are blinking then you still have some electrical issue. Resistors are good for old fashioned bulb flicker.
Yeah, you need load resistors when going from incandescent to LED. They're really inexpensive though. I've upgraded my past cars/SUVs and motorcycles to LED and it prevents hyperflash if a turn signal or flickering if a steady light.
Happy Christmas 🎄 Mat and the gang, hope you have a great break.. 👍
always waiting for the next dropping video and i know christmas new year video gonna be massive. Mk2 channel is all about lessons and motivation. thumbs 👍 and fingers always 🤞
Bro you are rocking at high viz. Merry Christmas to you, your team, your friends and of course family. Love your sense of humour and laughs.
Oh man great stuff can't wait for next video Happy holidays to all of u guys there
Dude I just wanted to tell you thank you for all the inspiration. You live the best life I wish I wish I live. Fast cars, and awesome Family and Friends. If you ever in the East coast of the US, You have a place her in Virginia. I have a heated shop with lift you can use any time. Cheers to you my friend, Keep up the good work.
Happy Xmas to you and all Matt. My favourite channels of the year. Thank you
great videos mat well done this year on the builds. merry xmas to all the gang 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Merry Christmas Matt! Love the videos!
Another quality episode keep up the good work merry Christmas 🎁🎄 looking forward to more insane builds in 2024
So good having friends ‘which’ are clever is hilarious! You’re a genius mat Merry Christmas everyone
15:30 There are "special" LED for CAN-nus controlled light. They have low resisters over plus and minis to stimulate a normal light bulb. I suggest to buy one of those and solder the LED strip to it.
Merry christmas my man!! Have a great one.
Thank you for entertaining me this year have a great Christmas
Merry Xmas Mat.Looking forward to another year of your CRAZY!. ventures!!. All rthe best mate, from Perth Western Australia.👍
I had an ‘86 SAAB 900 and an ‘88 SAAB 900 turbo…. The turbo sounded so fricken awesome!!!! Merry Christmas to you and all your team, thanks for all the great content!!!
Tks for another entertaining quality video. A Merry Christmas for you and your family, from Portugal!
