Decent car YouTubes
Re: Decent car YouTubes
Youtube offered me this yesterday and I enjoyed it:
Nice one @Gavster. I had no idea so many service areas had nice bits out the back. Also, well done including a slightly lingering shot of the Caterfield.

Thanks for sharing Simon, glad to hear you enjoyed it too
it was good fun to make and cool to have a bit of an adventure. Someone in the comments suggested I go to the 10 worst rated service stations next 
Re: Decent car YouTubes
I've stopped at Donno services a few times over the years, it's not bad at all. Never thought to look out the back of it though.
Gloucester services similar - those sausage rolls (I assume similar across all that chain)? Two of them is definitely a bit much, I got hot ones, ooh, so much grease. Couldn't finish two.
Good vid!

I bought one of these a few months ago. I’ve always liked that viewing tower.

Re: Decent car YouTubes
I’m sure 10 worst is better for views. Was wondering if this one might go viral for you though.Gavster wrote: Mon Jan 12, 2026 4:01 pm Thanks for sharing Simon, glad to hear you enjoyed it tooit was good fun to make and cool to have a bit of an adventure.

My dad always stopped at Killington Lake if we were ever heading North-South (or vice versa)

Almost the more tenuous the better.

Re: Decent car YouTubes
Not enough filling in of the tw@ts, but good to watch.. do they get charged with the police vehicle damage or are we footing the (old) bill?
Cheers,

Bit of a bizarre incident for autocar
I kind of get Mercedes explanation, but not quite sure how it determined the ‘thing’ moving away from them was a person and kept the anchors on all the way to a dead stop

The thing with Gloucester services is that it prices out the chavs who'll keep driving down to Michaelwood and get a burger.

I want to believe this is BS, but suspect it is real
Re: Decent car YouTubes
Do you not remove the entire front end just to remove your filter?
Also, 15k @mik. Put that on your CV.

Re: Decent car YouTubes
I hate all of that. Mind you, in my time in product development I have witnessed management signing off designs that required front subframe removal to change the engine oil filter.
