What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

I think some of his music is spot on!

I'm sure his normal stuff is fine, buy the joke songs they make up for their project builds are f*cking terrible, when I do watch their vids I end up skipping most of it because of their adverts and shite music vids.

 

[McGherkin]

The backing songs they do for the trip videos are great.

The joke songs are usually pretty s**t, but I thought Marty’s rapping in the latest one wasn’t bad tbf. Chorus was shite though.

I am looking forward to the sex spec stuff getting in the bin but they’ve always bought tragic cars alongside the more interesting stuff.

 

[hopgop1]

I'm the opposite, I quite like the sex spec stuff, not because I'm a big fan of the style, but because the cars have some interesting stories and it's a good change from the usual fill with some Castrol, put in a Haltech and a Whiteline ARB on infomercial formula of theirs. I do also appreciate that those early 2000s modified cars are unique and have some personality, even if that personality is obnoxious and stupid.

I genuinely loved the Max Power Era (and equivalent sxy), it was all about the “over the topness” with the builds. Perhaps it didn’t really age well but I’m glad I lived through it.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Yeah I love the Max Power stuff. It was over-the-top and stupid, but there was loads of creativity and I'd rather than than the current trend of "builds" which basically involved a remap, Eibach springs and firing a Maxton catalogue at the car. It's really cool seeing that there are people restoring cars from that era, or even building new ones.

I want to get down to one of the revival shows to relive my youth. I used to love going to the Donny Show at the racecourse back in the day.

MA's new purchase is a bit mad! New era for him, well done to the lad.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Makes sense for him to move to the US. Will make far more money there than in the UK.

 

[Matt Cup]

What a machine!

I've not watched him for ages. Fair play to him though.

He goes like,
My dream bungalow.
I've moved.
My dream house with a menagerie (that's what he calls it)
I've moved.

I know he rents out houses as he's said, he must be renting those out too.

He’s not moved to America though. Just bought a home over there.

Heard this a few times, but why is this? YouTube is worldwide so never understood why doing something in one country brings more viewers than doing it in another...

I assume the availability of a greater selection of cars.

I believe creators earn more revenue from US views than UK ones, though I don't think the difference is as big as it used to be.

More than that though, it's just a bigger market. There are more companies to do brand deals with, and the whole automotive and YouTube business is on a larger scale. If most of his audience is in the US, he can work with US companies, sell merch/products directly without international shipping etc. etc.

Fair enough.
