New one for the non paupers

 

[celicaturbolly]

Apologies if has been discussed before ( yes i "used the search button :butt: ) but has anyone subscribed to the XCAR channel. It's not bad, good varied content but the presenter can be a bit annoying

Wish my giro would hurry up and cash so I can watch the new one!

 

[Ian_182]

I don't care how good he is and I do think he is btw,but I simply refuse to pay for youtube video's.

I hope he works that out soon and leaves the site.

Watching it now.

Pretty good review tbh, the Golf handles and drives better but he prefers tail happy RWD so that wins for him. Yay :]

No surprise that the videos are being pirated already. Shame, really, but not unexpected.

If a company cuts off 90% of its demographic through making them need jobs/money, then yes, this was only ever going to happen

Thanks for sharing

Ferrari FF is one of the ultimate supercars that does a bit of everything.

However that finance he got was shocking.Did he say 45k down payment and 6 months at £1400 a month and then hand it back.?

Surely he wouldn't have lost that much if he owned it out right.?

 

[Gally]

I think he put that one out for free anyway.

Doesnt sound like it was a 6 month agreement rather he will get rid of it after 6 months. Sounds like Finance for 3 years or something rather than PCP.

Says on PH that it cost overall around £4k per month.

 

[sbridgey]

just cancelled my subscription, was hoping for some decent content, seems there isn't any so i'm not paying for it.

 

[dajones]

I'm also a bit disappointed with drive+ seems as if the standard shows get released first aswell

 

[welshname]

Is there only Harris still at drive+. I barely see anything from any of the others and all the recent videos have been a bit waff

All I can figure out from that is he must earn a s**t load of money

 

[182Trophy]

The cost of a brand new M3, which you own outright and can keep until it's time is up or drive a ferrari for 6 months and then have to start all over again. i don't get why you would waste money like that.

 

[Chapppers11]

I was miffed about the videos being £2.49, but got over it and realised the videos were such a minor addition to life not worth paying for!

 

[Gally]

Well it seems he's jumped ship all ready... sorta onto something he should be doing, except on TV. Fascinating that no onw has got him on TV yet...

[sbridgey]

Not surprised he's jumped ship, Drive basically became the chris harris on cars channel.

I stopped my subscription as i'm sure others have due to the lack of content.

 

[welshname]

Awesome. He does need a proper TV show. Dave would be a good channel fot it or one of the discovery ones.

 

[George182]

Excellent news!

 

[celicaturbolly]

IMO the paid content had to be short lived, people will just search elsewhere for similar stuff that is free to view

 

[JD]

Great news. On Saturday I emailed the Drive+ team stating my dislike of the lack of updates from him, Spinelli and Farrah, alongside the lack of updates from all presenters of Drive+. I mentioned I would terminate my sub if this was to be the way of Drive+... just done so on hearing this news.

 

[Feirny]

Also cancelled my Drive+ sub, not worth much now with only Farah that I like on there.

 

[Gally]

I believe the words on Twitter were "how to kill drive in 4 tweets".

 

[riz]

I need stuff to watch. I really like Harris and Farah.

 

[Ian_182]

Excellent news.

 

[Mr Burns]

I hope he produces more Motorsport stuff in the near future.

 

[Gally]

I hope he produces more Motorsport stuff in the near future.

I hope he sticks to mainstream.

 

[Ian_182]

Yep me too gally.I hope he sticks with the driving cars we aspire to own one day.All be it 2nd hand when they've lost 50k lol

 

[Mr Burns]

For me, Chris's best video was his Spa endurance race in the Ford Falcon.

 

[welshname]

Cancelled my subscription. I've barely watched anything on there since the change as I only ever watch on my ATV and you can't watch PPV channels on that.
