doesn't look like the same car binky had chequerboard roof and something on the sides also the front wheel arches don't look split due to the forward tilting front end but that's my opinion

Look through the 3 videos on utube carefully and you can see the chequerboard roof , it is subtle, but it's definitely there. I only saw the side stripe on the nearside.

Spending 2 years for a few gauges?
Brilliant. Madness, but glorious madness. Love it.
Shame that Smiths can't get their kit to be consistent across the range.

I tried 4 times to watch it and kept falling asleep! I need a fifth try to stitch all the bits together.

Well, I'm glad the had a recap of the previous episode. It made me realise that I missed #39, so two to watch!

I loved this series up until the last couple of episodes. It seems to have gone down a rabbit hole tangent of DIY gauge construction. I hoped that by now the content would be more about test driving Binky and ironing out any problems. Truly amazing work earlier on, but gauge construction seems unnecessary.

I dunno - I don't really understand much of what goes on in the oily bits of a car but still enjoyed the first 38 episodes then, as an electronics buff, particularly enjoyed these last two.
Something for everyone!

I had another go this afternoon sat on the settee, successfully did 20 minutes but my missus has tonsillitis and needed to lie down.
Grabbed a cider, sat in the chair and carried on. Five minutes and the cat jumped up hassling which means "please recline the chair so l can curl up between your knees". 5 more minutes reclined and l nearly dozed off again. Cat was comfy too.
As the missus had been laid down Over 7 minutes l could now not hear the headphones on full volume over her snoring.
Determined to finish watching, l laid on the bed thinking this would be fatal and l would be away within minutes. Managed to finish the cider and Binky episode 40!!
Sussed out it's when they get the funk out l start dozing.......
Great effort on their part and a fantastic set of clocks, l do enjoy their videos and get what they are trying to achieve.
