Why? You're only paying when they deliver an episode, so the more episodes they make, the more they get paid, the bigger the incentive to make episodes.
Bearing in mind they're also a motorsport prep company, they're probably quite busy!

That's why I don't pay. They are a company. By doing these videos they are advertising themselves. Why would I pay to see their adverts?
That's over simplifying it obviously, and I do love their videos. It would be different if it was two guys in their garage just doing it for the sake of it.

Fair enough. I think it's content worth paying for.
You'll just have to wait

Now you can watch it 
And here's me making rad mounts from my old wheelbarrow. I think they might be a league or 10 above me.
Love the P.T.O, lol
Another episode with relatively little process in the scheme of things compared to how they were progressing well in the initial several episodes where they faced greater challenges.
They really are dragging it out now although I can't blame them for wanting to get to 100 episodes to rinse the situation for every penny they can.

As I have built plenty of stuff in the past, I can totally relate to them as to the time it takes to do the fiddly jobs. Like he was saying on the video, it's a case of the 20 minute looking jobs do take 4 hours. There are a lot of little things that take lots of time and unfortunately they are having to do all those little things now which make it look like they don't seem to be progressing as well as previously.
This is just as an extra to a day job. I'm pretty sure they both have families too, and I think Richard doesn't live anywhere near where it's being built.
These things take (lots of spare) time which may be they don't always have due to life getting in the way so unfortunately we have to wait the fair few months in between episodes.
It was bad enough trying to just build the rally car which is relatively simple in comparison without having to think and plan what to film, then edit it all together and stick it on YouTube.

Well said.
They're as near as makes no difference designing and building an entire car from the ground up.

New episode is available on Patreon, so you lot should be seeing it before too long.
They timed how long it took to make just a single bracket. I think if you struggled to see why it takes so long you'll realise why after.

You're not paying to see it a couple of days early. You're paying to support the project.
If they made that much money out of it they'd give up their day jobs and concentrate on Binky full time.

Oh great a new episode, after a 6 month wait i'm looking forward to watching them fabricate another bracket for half an hour.
Who didn’t?!
He had orange gloves on and he was in a recent video with them on his or their channel
Why's it taking the piss? It's not for anyone else but them? They don't have an obligation to do any of it or record it and edit it.
New one isn't as interesting as other episodes but it's what they want to do done how they want it. Fair play to them.

I’m the last one to be able to pint out timescales and I completely agree there’s no obligation.
But the idea is GT4 into a mini. There’s been little to no progress towards that goal in nearly 12 months because they’re pissing about with the aforementioned fancy stuff when they don’t even know if the thing will work.
Episode 2-3 ish they go to silverstone and genuinely mention taking binky there next year - that was about 4 years ago because they’re playing about. It’s just frustrating that you have to wait so long for an update and we get half an hour on how to make a custom made hvac system. It’s a great video in its own right but doesn’t achieve the end goal which people started watching for in the first place
Ph2 172, 106 Rallye
If it turns out shite I'm sure they'll come up with something to fix it.
There have been many AWD mini's, so the concept is sound.

I gave up following the build probably a year to two ago.
Taking the piss with it. I know they have day jobs and life gets in the way, but i'm sure they've been doing this for as long as i've been on here ?

I'd have got bored building the project if it took that long i reckon.
I don’t care if it takes 10 years TBH. Only they could make a half an hour video about making a set of wipers and make it both interesting and funny. I like it when they pop up in my inbox once a while.
Snap. I'm not counting down the days for them to be finished. I couldn't care less if they never do, to be honest. Its just a good watch, and some of the fabrication skills are consistently incredible.
Enjoyed that more than a normal person should.
