Decent car YouTubes

[Ascender]

Those rally ones are epic, have subscribed immediately!

I always look forward to the Hagerty videos, really enjoyed that one on the GT3. I've still never driven one, would be interesting to see how the Comfort/Touring one feels on our crappy roads.

New Chris Harris vid on the Vanquish.

It brought to mind this;





Full Jobbo Interior.


CHOC reminds me I'd neglected to post a couple, though doubtless you've all watched them already;

Blimey, he’s been enjoying the winter! he’s so big he’s waddling!

I think the TAG is pretty special though

Getting fully immersed in the role of Jag driver. Someone's gotta pick up Prezza's mantle

You’d have to have both wouldn’t you.

I remember well how Gavster & I used to drunkenly watch the off road truck trials late at night.

Truck laying on its side, 8wd, 12 tons, I know, gun it and push that tree out of the way

Dave!

I love these old training videos and rail videos, wash and brush up etc but a Scammell Pioneer is on my lottery wish list and there is a Explorer in town I believe, I can only see the front.

I know he's been joking about it here and there but I think the whole Freddie Flintoff thing hit him pretty hard and then the Top Gear fallout from that. Could be totally wrong and mis-remembering comments or reading too much into those so apologies if I've done that.

I'm loving the amount of videos he's putting out again on YT.

Cross posted from the Noble M500 thread - interesting vid from UpnDown on an early Noble and the genesis of the company:

Doesn’t sound good - and JayEmm is clearly shaken.

[Beany]

For context (in case anyone isn't in a position to watch the vid) he was filming a bit where a sub who'd provided car was driving it for a flyby shot - by Jayemms account, not terribly outrageously ; they were driving with an abundance of caution) and the cars owner lost it and had a pretty nasty accident. No-one else involved.

Full recovery expected, but not for a while.

I'll rag on Jayemm for his content being a bit waffley and droney for my tastes, but fair play for being a grown up and making clear that something happened, someone's hurt, and that he's taking a break for a bit to collect himself (and although it's not said, probably to help police with their enquiries etc).

[Jobbo]

I think he said in the video that he was driving with an over-abundance of caution beforehand.

Wonder what car it was?

[nuttinnew]

From the title I thought it was going to be about the Chinese car 5* expose/Jonny Smith hoo-ha; a crash is never good

[Mito Man]

Probably floored it for the drive by and done diddly did a Mustang.

Yeah, I could have worded that more clearly. From the (accurate, but lacking punctuation which I've added) auto-transcript that I forgot about when typing that:

"Whilst recording the driveby portion of my review, a subscriber who had brought their car to me unfortunately lost control of their vehicle. There were no other road users present at the time, there was nobody else in the car. Up until that point he had been displaying what I thought was an overabundance of caution and respect for both the vehicle and the road conditions.

At some point in the future I may explain in more detail exactly what happened, but in short it was something that I know almost every petrol head out there has experienced in their driving career but which, ordinarily, results in no more than just a bruised ego. Unfortunately in this scenario the consequences were far more severe, and the driver was left with very serious injuries."

The bit about the "overabundance of caution" up until that point reads worse than it sounds - I think that's a poor way of saying that no, the owner wasn't giving the car beans for the camera, but it could be inferred as them having less caution 'after that point' - but honestly he looked pretty shaky on camera so I think he might have just flubbed the delivery a bit.

[Jobbo]

I think he’s prone to using the wrong words which sound like a superlative but actually mean something different, but if taken literally he was being too cautious before booting it and crashing. Which may have been the case; if he had always pussyfooted around with the car then he might not have a clue how it reacts when given a ‘watch this’ opportunity.

[integrale_evo]

I’ve been expecting a big YouTuber crash for a while, was hoping it would be one of the complete knobheads who seem to love driving like morons with impunity.

Not that I want anyone seriously hurt or killed, but a decently high profile incident to discourage others from copying their behaviour would be nice.

[Ascender]

That's awful, but at least he's said the person involved will make a full recovery. Can imagine just how much of a shock that must have been given how many years he's been making videos without any incident and he's clearly a top bloke and a proper enthusiast so its even more of a shame its happened on his watch when you see some of the wildly irresponsible stuff out there on YouTube.
