I do most of my stuff on Instagram, so don't really get any views on YouTube generally. Saying that, I did a video about the GR Yaris and that got nearly 1,000 views: My stuff is generally rally chit chat. Planning to do some bits with early cars, but covid keeps getting in the way...

Nice to see another Cup car getting some love!

Interesting that you stick to a script so much. I always wing it generally but, like you, usually wish I had said something else 😂

I don't have etis access to check anymore sadly. It's a bit rough around the edges but it looks like a real one in person.

That's a lot of money to leave rotting on the driveway these days!

It's definitely in a Max Power era font!

Couple today... A 1.6 GTI languishing on a driveway. Was pretty green. Looks like it's been there a good while: GR Yaris in the Toyota storage near where my work vans are stored:

Fair play for giving all that a go. I had virtually no fabrication experience before I started building my last Escort. It's such a great learning experience just cracking on and having a go. I mean, I'm still not very good at it, but I had fun all the same 🤣

Couple more spots today. An old American truck that the owner appears to park on the street outside his house, and a very neglected Volvo 850R...

I love a Chamade! A ph2 16v Chamade would be a deeply cool thing to own now. In my mind at least.

I'm pleased for Gus, though I think there is going to be a bit of pressure on him to before this year. He gets a bit of stick, but I know someone that worked with him in the early days and rated him really highly. I can't help but feel a bit down about the whole M-Sport situation though. I...

I'm with you. People seem to get really excited about the phase 1, but I think the phase 2 looks miles better!

Saw this today - R19 convertible. Don't remember the last time I saw a 19. Really wanted a 16v when I was a teen!

That's lovely. It was such a shame when they moved away from that traditional three-box look for the XJ.

Welcome back to Clio world. Funny how people always come back!

Bloody love that car. It's perfect. Clio isn't bad either :LOL:

Couple of spots today. One stupid, pointless and overpriced. The other is a Racing Puma.

This is why people lease new cars lol Going to fix it, or move it on?

Yeah I thought that too. More time driving and talking about each car would have been better.

I wonder if it might have been better if they'd just had a couple of them do it, perhaps Henry Catchpole and Jethro Bovingdon, as they're more experienced on camera, then just keep the others in the background. That being said, I didn't think Adam Towler was too bad. They're all in a weird...

Really enjoyed those videos with Plato and Neal!

Definitely shows that a good writer isn't necessarily a good presenter. John Barker is a legend in automotive writing terms, but he really doesn't come across well on camera.

Forgot it was on. Watching the second half of it. Nice to see some nerdy car stuff on TV. Some of the journos are definitely better suited to writing though. You can see which ones have been doing video for a while, that's for sure.

I really can't get on board with the new Defender. Awful looking thing to my eyes. On the subject of Land Rovers (well their inspiration at least) I spotted this today. I would absolutely love one of these:

Thanks bud. A mate has bought a 182 and it might need an injector, so made me think of it when you mentioned Amazon. Good price that!

Always liked these. A guy I knew had one years ago, but he didn't keep it long for some reason.

Congratulations mate! Great news just before Christmas! Do you have a link to the injector from Amazon?

Paint looks pretty cool. Nice and vivid. Car is ugly as sin though.

How much thicker are the aftermarket roll bars out of interest? I wouldn't agree that thick bars are necessarily problematic on bumpy roads, as large ARBs are commonplace on tarmac rally cars, as they allow you to prevent excess roll, while letting the springs and dampers deal with the ride. The...

I suspect that's due to a bit of a mismatch of components in a lot of cases. Most aftermarket suspension is far too stiff for road use, not to mention often being of questionable quality. While anti-roll bars obviously influence ride quality, it's better in my view to tune ride with springs and...
