About

Built on a Uno Turbo

How one eighties hot hatch turned into a workshop, a YouTube channel and a lot of friends.

Chapter 1

The car

It started with a Uno Turbo

Every Italian car nut has the one that got them hooked. For Ant it was the Fiat Uno Turbo, the hot hatch of the eighties. He still has it, and it has since been featured in Modern Classics and Auto Italia.

Chapter 2

The workshop

A garage people travel to

Our technician has spent over thirty years on Alfas and Fiats, so not much rolls through the door that he hasn't seen before. That's why people bring us the jobs other garages gave up on. There's no receptionist either: you talk to the person working on your car.

Chapter 3

The channel

We film everything

We started filming project cars coming back together and never really stopped. 801 videos and 26.7K subscribers later, it's barn finds, buyers' guides and the odd thing going wrong on camera.

Chapter 4

The screen

Then the telly called

Our cars have been on Bangers and Cash and Rich Holiday Poor Holiday, and we've turned up on some of the biggest motoring channels on YouTube.

Chapter 5

Today

Come and say hello

These days it's car days through the year, Italian Car Day and Festa Italia among them, tens of thousands of people following along online, and the same workshop on Colesden Road. Italian or not, you're welcome.
