YouTuber Mat Armstrong has finally finished rebuilding Marcus Rashford’s wrecked Rolls Royce.
In September of 2023, Manchester United and England star Rashford crashed his Rolls Royce, which was worth £700,000, on his way home after the Red Devils’ victory against Burnley.
After the accident, Armstrong bought the car after it was written off and auctioned for £184,000.
After Armstrong had posted a video of Rashford’s wrecked car on his YouTube channel, the 26-year-old’s team got in touch.
A message read: “Hi, I deal with all of the cars from Marcus, I believe we still have a few bits from the car you might need, we might have the v5 spare key and a couple more bits from when the car got recovered. We also have the ghost code and tracker information if you want us to get them to you?”

This week, Armstrong posted a new video on his channel which showed the finished product.
In the description, Armstrong wrote: “I bought Marcus Rashford's wrecked Rolls Royce wraith after he crashed it.
“Over the past 6 months i've been rebuilding the Wraith but as its a special edition Mansory Rolls Royce parts got expensive really quick. But finally its finished!”
The video went on to show the process of rebuilding the bodywork, seats and other parts of the car.
In the end, the fully rebuilt car was shown and it looked as good as new.

Reacting to the video, one fan said: “How this car has come along is a madness, a true show of dedication.”
Another commented: “Mate I think I now trust you more than the original car companies, You're the best mate.”
A third fan added: “Mat at this point is probably one of the few Youtubers actually finishing his projects.”
Someone else wrote: “If Marcus doesn't come and inspect this car in person, it would be criminal! He needs to be a special guest.”

A fifth said: “This car should be kept and not sold. This is a trophy car, a settlement to show how far you've come from the Audi in the car park to your own Mansory RR rebult in your own workshop.”
Another fan said: “Hands down, by far the BEST automotive channel in the history of YouTube period.”
