In this episode of Yiannimize, we witness Andrew unveiling his decrepit Bentley, a relic in need of some serious TLC. Meanwhile, Luchano stumbles upon a peculiar discovery, adding a touch of mystery to the mix. And of course, Yan can't help but chuckle as he revs up a high-speed beast. Moving on to the main event, Andrew delves into the restoration of an Ariel Atom, a track car with a turbocharged engine boasting a staggering 700 brake horsepower per ton. The adrenaline is palpable as the team embarks on this exhilarating project, breathing new life into a machine that's been dormant for years.
But the fun doesn't stop there, as the crew also sets their sights on a Porsche 944 and a Bentley Turbo R, both in need of some serious attention. The Bentley, in particular, shows signs of neglect, with a musty interior and sagging suspension. As discussions ensue about the fate of these classic cars, the team weighs the pros and cons of restoring old versus new vehicles, sparking a lively debate. With each car presenting its own set of challenges, the team faces a daunting yet exciting task ahead.
As Andrew rolls up his sleeves to work on the Ariel Atom, he dives into the nitty-gritty details of the fuel system, addressing issues with water contamination and ethanol separation. Through meticulous adjustments and troubleshooting, he manages to rectify a fuel gauge discrepancy, ensuring the Atom is in top-notch condition for its next adventure. And when the moment of truth arrives, and the Atom hits the road, the team is met with a symphony of turbocharged power, exhilarating acceleration, and razor-sharp handling that leaves them grinning from ear to ear.
