A YouTuber superstar who has rebuilt Marcus Rashford's former Rolls Royce has been asked to return it.
Mat Armstrong, who boasts over 3 million subscribers on his channel, has documented the process over the last six months.
Having now completed the rebuild, Armstrong is said to have spent in excess of £400,000 on the car.

But after being contacted by Mansory, the special edition creators of Rashford's Rolls Royce, Armstrong was left shocked.
The car had of course been written off due to wholesale damage and the manufacturers wished to make a few tweaks.
Earlier this month, Armstrong recently drove the Mansory Rolls-Royce across Europe and into Monaco.

When Mansory heard about it, they called him and ask him to drive to their official factory in Brand, Germany.
As the designers took a detailed look, they quizzed the 30-year-old YouTuber about how he had repaired the once written-off vehicle.
Mansory owner, Kourosh Mansory, then took it upon himself to describe the repairs undertaken as: "s***".
“If there’s one thing we learned straight away, it’s that Mr Mansory is really passionate about his brand,” the YouTuber noted.

Mansory told Armstrong: “Everything is wrong. Everything [is] s***.
The owner of the high-end car provider also had a problem with the wheels selected by Armstrong.
But when the Birmingham-based YouTuber returned the next day, he had in fact swapped the wheels over to original £10,000 alloys, for free.

After that, Armstrong was then sent on his way back to the UK with some minor details ironed out.
"I am over the moon with how this build has turned out," added Armstrong.
"At the start of the video I did say this could now be the last drive that I ever do in this Rolls Royce.
"When it got to this point I was actually thinking about [them] asking whether they would buy the car off of me and resell it here at Mansoury.

"How could I possible let this car go."
