I'M COMING TO FRANKFURT TO COLLECT MY BEER! Jk — happy to help and looking forward to watching this whole video!
I really like your character and persona. Lovely videos and commentary! Well done with the videos.
To me the steering wheel leather looked in pretty good shape, but I don’t have your attention to detail, nor an upholstery guy like Felix. Nice work
Edit: wow, ok the finished product looks sooo much better!
Felix does awesome work.
I can't tell you how much your work means to me. Its truly exceptional from a engineer, It's so nice to see you and the cars that sparked my passion for the automotive world!
Convert the rear to disc brakes after you pass.
McDonald's makes the best Blueberry muffins. For future reference.
I hate drum brakes.
two craftsmen in one video..top work..and Felix speaks perfect English as well! I think he's about to get a lot of orders 👏
This is classic dinner time content. Very entertaining. Thanks for your hard work man!
Good progress so what is a top speed for this old girl ?.. she sits so high it does look like a old SUV.
Amazing video as always. Beautiful little BMW.
I believe a congratulations is in order.. Oh, and the brakes are working. 23:50
When listening to Felix it's like listening to Herr Flick from the Gestapo. Waiting for the "You may kiss me now"
Well, who would have thought that a fault in the distributor would cause the revs to be hanging..?? Now, be honest… because there's no way that I would have gone there..!!
It is $500 to get my Ford Edge steering wheel recovered here in Southern California.
Another enjoyable video. Really good to see Felix back once more and the price of his craftsmanship is well worth the 230 Euros! Am looking forward to seeing an E34 finally come to the channel.
Cant believe you'd send a car for TUV without checking the brakes. Otherwise great content….love your work
Again great video as always but please sir, don't call a majestic E30 stupid. Thank you
200 Euro a year for car tax is cheap?
I just LOVE this old school guy Felix! Cozy workshop, mechanic stuff, etc. This is not usual in nowadays, and I bet that it smell of glue inside, right?
That steering wheel was immaculate you didn’t need to reupholster it..
👍

Well done, you now have a great reliable car, also don't change the springs, it looks great as is, you might want to install four mud guards behind each wheel, may be install a spoiler on the trunk, also install the center high brake light for safety if it doesn't have one. Also install LED headlights.
Hi ! the Bilsteins you mounted on that E30 are B6s, apparently. However, this is the manufacturer's sport range and their calibration is rather hard. The car also seems to be "high perched" at the level of the rear train (as if the spring could not correctly be compressed). Wouldn't it have been better to mount B4s, which are the range So-called "replacement"?
These can even be combined with short springs (eg Eibach), their setting being about 10% harder than original parts.
Otherwise, I still adore your videos, both informative, funny and very well done! Good continuation. A fan from Switzerland 🙂
Coming up…..🤣 another great video 👍
Another very good video from a beautiful BMW.
According to my taste, a video length of 30 minutes is just right.
I had no idea what to expect on the leatherwork, but that was something else. Magnificient!
Congratulations on the Historic plates, just double check the brake pedal distance, it is strongly recommended to check and adjust both brake and clutch pedals if the brake booster, brake master cylinder or clutch master cylinder(s) are replaced.
Good video, nice one Felix
As always great video sreten
Really good 👍
Trivia —> Name Sreten translated is Felix….
16:30 Sorry to say: the roundel is crooked. LOL
Good to see this car love the colour keep them coming mate
Great to see a young bloke like Felix still practicing old school techniques — can't imagine BMW have a factory full of Felix's!
