I've recently just gone from my F30 330D which I had owned for 6 years to a Mercedes-AMG GLC43, taking some getting used to moving from a diesel to a twin turbo petrol.

Must have taken a huge amount of time and effort to get all that working right so I totally get the wait between episodes, but I found that one fell pretty flat. Lots of interesting detail in there but I dunno. Hopefully they can rebuild a bit of momentum (the few vids prior were surprisingly quick succession by Binky standards, and somewhat more engaging) and it's just a one off.

Will be interesting to see how the literal printed circuit board will last over damp winters etc. I know they used high quality solder but even so the adhesion didn't look incredible and I wonder how it will end up in a couple of years. Amazing what they've achieved while being self-taught etc. but I can't help feeling that it's a complex prototyping system that once they have it dialled could/should be replaced by a 'proper' PCB made at PCBWay or similar.

Yeah. The time and money in that could well have been spent on a couple of iterations of "proper" PCB. But then I suppose the same could be said for SendCutSending most of the brackets, which would detract form the DIY build (he says, having taken delivery of two Fractory deliveries of laser cut goodies today...)
