Watched the Mini episode. All the Goblin crew did was remove a busted bumper, drill 4 holes (badly) for a spoiler, produce a bad illustration of a squashed mini, and talk a lot. The air suspension was done by another, so was the wrapping, also the stupid wing mirror painting. The interior just mysteriously appeared and was fitted by whom ? Nearly forgot, they put the wheels on with an impact wrench. WRONG. You need to torque them to the correct value.
Not forgetting the s
t roof lining with Disney-esque LED lighting

I'd like to offer sincere apologies to all Spanish speaking countries who out of curiosity have had the misfortune to encounter these three clowns.
I'm astounded UK TV companies purchased it in the first place ? But International !

so where did they spend £10K ??????
Artisans aren't cheap I saw the LR when it was on Discovery + and it was quite restrained for GMG. Pretty much bolt on bits, and removing the mudflaps with a grinder. I like the bikini roof, but it's not really practical for this country.

Thought I would give Goblin try as I was up-to-date with all my other car shows, and BOY did it not disappoint! This show is supposed to be tongue-in-cheeky comedy right? I mean, I was rolling around on the floor laughing when they churned out this f**ing abomination of a Supra!! Hilarious!!
I have spoken to the guy that owns this car, its basically ruined. the Wheel Fans cannot be driven on, the spoiler they are sure will survive a high speed run, it nearly worn through the wiring loom in the arch due to the wheel and tyre combination. Just watched the Land Rover Episode. If you eliminate all the talking, you get about 5 minutes of 'activity'. Since when has sticking on some stripes, attaching a few new grills, 4 wheels, plastic arches, a big box, a plastic mat , and a canvas hood (all bought items), qualify as an artisan. PS. I've no idea what the hose pipe session was meant to show either, and the point of the initial road tests. Another 11yr old drawing from Miss styllist as well. I've no idea why they have a workshop of tools and equipment either. What utter dross.

The hose pipe session showed the “bikini” top was totally useless but they still chose it.Sort of fits the general tone of the programme I suppose.
