Welcome to Iain Tyrrell – classic cars, music and beyond.

This site aims to provide you with a range of interesting content, from the highly informative to the richly entertaining, or sometimes both together, such as Iain’s now legendary tuning of a Lamborghini V12 engine using nothing more than a screwdriver, a rubber tube and his musical ears! This is Iain’s USP, having started his professional life at the age of 19 under the most demanding discipline of working on and fine-tuning Rolls-Royce and Bentley engines. This then springboarded to other complex makes and models, to the extent that he now has a wealth of knowledge and experience making a huge span of top marques’ engines “sing” which could be unparalleled.

Tyrrell Torques is Iain’s regular blog post, which covers a broad range of topics relating to classic cars, music and beyond, whilst his acclaimed YouTube channel, Tyrrell’s Classic Workshop, has over 200,000 subscribers and has now received over 30 million views.

To keep up in tune with Iain see his latest videos and blog posts.

Iain using only a hosepipe, screwdriver and his ears to tune one of the most iconic cars ever made- the unique 1968 Lamborghini Miura from the opening sequence of the original 1969 “The Italian Job” film. When finished, a £1 coin could be balanced on edge with the engine running, thus displaying perfect harmony. You can see his YouTube videos with this car, re-creating the car and the location for the first time since 1968 here.
