mr crispy 2293 Posted July 24, 2016 I thought we already had a topic running on the BadObsession guys mad Mini build but I couldn't find it with the search so I've started this one. Episode 13 has landed 😉 Or here's the story so far... Put the kettle on and enjoy! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wooders28 4723 Posted July 24, 2016 I thought there was too, I remember commenting on it! They have a Facebook page which gives you a heads up when a new 'episode' is out. https://m.facebook.com/badobsessionmotorsport/?locale2=en_GB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamiyabigstuff 832 Posted July 26, 2016 What an amazing project - outstanding fabrication work ! I'm sure I've seen this before a long time ago but just had to watch all the episodes again... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yonez 180 Posted July 26, 2016 Cool project. Looking forward to the next episode. I wonder how long it will be before they finish this. Several more years? (And the percentage of actual Mini left at that time) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terz1 745 Posted February 13, 2017 Cool. I started watching this when I had a Toyota celica gt4 wrc years back and that's what got me interested in this. I'll check out the latest one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terz1 745 Posted March 18, 2017 Just watched this last night. They're amazing these guys. They make it look so easy. I think this is something a I'd like to do and tamiya is my substitute 😄. I want them to finish it but at the same time I don't because when it's done it's done. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr crispy 2293 Posted March 21, 2017 The problem with watching project binky is I keep over dunking my biscuits (where I don't want to look away from the screen) and ending up with that horrible crumb sludge in the bottom of my coffee mug! 😖 Another quality episode! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wooders28 4723 Posted March 21, 2017 Is it anyone else, or just me, when after watching these guys, you start to question the validity of other car build shows?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the Project Binky guys are really good at explaining the build in explicit detail, other car build shows such as Fast'n'Loud are really produced for mass market entertainment and much of the build process on their projects in very much glossed over. The PB intro is excellent - spoof of the Police Squad show with Leslie Nielson, only 6 episodes made, well worth checking out - precursor to the Naked Gun movies I think. I'm following Binky with great interest and can't wait for the next episode - they night even finish it by the end of the decade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr crispy 2293 Posted March 21, 2017 I use to love Fast & Loud in the early days but now... meh! And apparently Aaron has left the garage, so not much to keep me tuning in ☹️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wooders28 4723 Posted March 22, 2017 Guess someone else agrees too! Shame. http://classics.honestjohn.co.uk/news/general-news/2017-03/edd-china-quits-wheeler-dealers-and-will-be-replaced-by-ant-anstead/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamiyabigstuff 832 Posted March 22, 2017 Sounds like 2 great shows are on the way to be ruined in the name of progress... Not sure how F'n'L will work out without Aaron as he really is the main creative ideas guy. The classic car restoration show with Ant & I think Phillip Glenister - can't say I was much of a fan of the presentation style or format. Another show with Tim Shaw & Fuzz Townsend seems to have been devised as a rival to WD but the predictable format & presentation is all rather weak. WD was an original idea which others have tried to clone but fall short. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say 80% of it success is Edd working on the cars, tips and real life - seized bolts and horrors of what looks like a good buy but is really scrap!! But like Edd says in the video, this takes time to film and it's cheaper to gloss over. Really hope the 'bad obsession' don't start to cut corners!

Terz1 745 Posted March 22, 2017 What a shame this new production company want to cut out edds fixes, the best bits of the show. No wonder he left. Hope Edd starts his own series, one that allows him to show all the interesting stuff that he wants to do. I watched this show from the start and it won't be the same without Edd. I like fast and loud too and think they've lost the biggest part of their show as well, Aaron Kaufman. I watched the latest episode and when he was telling Richard, Richard said "it's been 15 years". Aaron replied "the last 5 felt like 20!". I think he'd had enough of churning out all these builds with unrealistic deadlines while Richard got all the cash. Aaron should have been a partner from the start. In the comments in the link someone mentioned Edd and Aaron should do their own show. Now that would be a partnership! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
