This abandoned Lamborghini Murcielago cost me £100,000 from a track experience company. Ive been rebuilding the car aswell as the engine. In the last video we finally put the V12 engine back in the car after 7 years of being apart. But it didnt last long because id made a stupid mistake!

I would of thought your mate from rep performance would of told you about o rings saying he has just re built one
I will keep in mind that your brand new dashboard works . The V12 is so sophisticated than it refuses to run for a very small mistake . When you will get the MURCIELAGO running, i suggest a big party for you, all your family and your crew. With a special award to SIR ARMSRTONG SENIOR.
Hi Matt, Can your next project be a merc e-class 2019? Interested to see how badass it can be and you’re the only man for the job.
Would it not be the time to test out the starter and alternator during this removal . I did not see a video of you testing these before they were installed . it would be terrible if they fail in short time.
happens to us all Mat i feel your pain head up you will get her finished
Hooked on your videos!!!
Fair play to you for being honest and owning up making a mistake. Thankfully no damage done apart from the time taken to correct the error.
Great content as always and looking forward to seeing this back on the road!
I'd have 6-8 wrenches sticking out of the wall by now.
As many exotics that you have restored, this shouldn't surprise you a lot. Shit happens good man. Just do as you always do, research it and fix it correctly. There is a bright side, could be a decent engine. And instruments are a go, progress is made. But, may need to take the heads lose again. So you can compress those orings with the head gaskets.
I love your attitude to adversity. Head down and plough forward. Hats off to you.
great work on the dash clocks
Should be able to check the mileage from the ABS Module, then code the mileage on the clocks before MOT
Dear Mat I see you trying Sir well done
Watching this on a Friday. Best way to start the weekend!
I can’t be the only one who has the stop/break light on the roof that pops up.
"But if we just spent a little more time actually reading the manual…" – Save the manual! 😉
I would have spent the 1k for the adapter
Yikes, engine seals are very important. Especially with a V12, the pressure that power plant is putting out is crazy.
Loving the work Mat.
Super wholesome that Mat is doing all this with his Dad.
Whilst you have the engine blackout change the exhaust gaskets you made, they won't last for more than a few days, the composite will breakup between the 2 metal surfaces, believe me I have been there before! The gaskets look the same as Alfa 3.0 v6 and Maserati 3200 gt V8 ones, though you would have to check the size is the same. Good luck!
