    I've said it before in this thread but damn they really did think of everything. Some amount of work and thought goes into each part.

    Incredible stuff really, at first I taught I'd never see the end of it but now I'm disappointed it's coming to an obvious conclusion.

    Binky maybe coming to an end but they have a carbon fibre MG Xpower SV body as next long term project plus the rebuilding of a 205 rally car. BOM are unlikely to disappear any time soon.:D

    No, but at the current rate of progress, either BOM or the viewing public will have expired by the time they are through that worklist.

    They might build an S2000-powered mobility scooter.

    Not a new binky video, but this is worth a look. New BOM 2 parter - race prepping a C1.

    Interesting to see their views bomb on you tube.
    Last binky video 732k views then the bargain racement starts
    489k , 400k , 374k , 331k , 290k , 273k, 257k,238k and 206k

    Next video won't even make 200k !!
    I know I'm not watching at all.
    Juiceboxforyou is where it's at .

    In fairness there was very little engineering in the race car build, totally different type of videos to Binky. I think the numbers will go back up with the next Binky, especially when it's nearly done

    Been enjoying the c1 build it was really good and probably a source of inspiration for many people that always wanted to do similar.

    I see a load of skang wagons in the preview pictures. Think I’ll just wait for new Binky.

    Bargain basement was just showing what they been upto really nothing like binky or escargot series.

    But also Binky coming to an end now there only the colour (a version of British Racing green my bet)and the final build left with couple videos of it being slung around a track of sorts.

    Personally and few other guys I know are really looking forward to what they get up to with the carbon fiber Rover in 2025 ðŸ˜ðŸ˜‚

    I watched back Ep.33 yesterday. Honestly can't believe I've been looking in awe at this Mini for 7 years. The flag detail on the roof and over the rear arches is just absolutely brilliant.

    I cant believe that after so long they still manage to shock us with how much details they put in next.

    Ps. They are Eight years uploading it in June.

    I wouldnt mind but i dont even like Minis ha.

    I appreciate them for what they were engineering wise i think they were fantastic but never liked driving them or looking at them. But i think I'd have fun in this one.
