The other plates are 12 and 16 respectively.
I do around 30k miles a year in my cars, so I see them being used something like:
Mini - just small journeys around London, a bit of fun
Focus RS - mostly living in Scotland where I visit fortnightly
GT4 - epic drives, but possibly being replaced with GT8 in due course
GT8 - the above epic drives
FF - general mileage, visiting family, going to events, travel to Germany, ski trips etc
675LT Spider - special occasions, shipping out to fun driving roads elsewhere, track days
AMG GT R - I want to use this for serious road trip mileage, meeting up with LT Spider at the other end and Ford GT should I be so lucky

No, it's not. But I bet he's well jelly when he comes to register on here
I'm loving how Alejandro's (Salomondrin) content is developing... This new video had me genuinely laughing out loud...

He sounds far more like an American version of Alan Car than Henry Catchpole. There's a fine line between being amusing and being irritating, and he's on the wrong side.Check out this latest video which appears to take the mickey out of Henry Catchpole - an example (one of my favourite videos)

That's one of the best rumours, I don't know who started it and nor do I know any members of the former owners of Burton's Biscuit Company. There's a brief history here if it helps: https://www.burtonsbiscuits.com/our-company/our-hi...
Being a YouTuber is like presenting a TV show and owning the business at the same time. If you know what you're doing then like me, even being mediocre on camera, you can string together enough content to support the business and marketing efforts you make behind the scenes. Driving traffic secures ad sales and brand content deals and opens up huge hosts of affiliate scheme options through the sheer volume of numbers you handle. My team now comprises almost 10 people, this is a full operation with 3 guys virtually full time handling our contact with other businesses. I've been through it all many times earlier in the thread but one thing that amazes me is how you see websites out there take guesses at YouTubers' earnings based on averages; now consider somebody who knows what they are doing and trust me you can beat even their top estimates
Is Burtons menswear also a rumor? Used to shop there when I was 15 Being a YouTuber is like presenting a TV show and owning the business at the same time.

Even the actual shop (in Plymouth) is long gone now, new shopping centre on top of it :/Mr2Mike said:

Mo Vlogs got gifted a $20k Rolex (@ 7.00): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6bwWvvDmS4 I don't know anything about watches but thats the price quoted in the comments section. I need friends like that...
edit: at 0.55 seconds it sounds like Mo only met the rapper guy, breifly 'one day' before. Crazy.

Funny thing is I have no interest in cars I will never own so I don't really watch Shmee.
Seen through Glaaaaarse did a video with a 220 trophy and monumentally fked it up by not really caring about the opportunity presented to him in a recent video. That did my st in as I've been trying to get hold of one to review or make a video on for a while now.

Congrats Tim. Obviously you were selected due to your online content and Ford will see it as cheap advertising for them (unless they gave you the RS )
Looking forward to the videos for it.
Honestly I think there's more to it than the online presence as generally speaking the applicants with big social followings have been rejected; I know of only 1 other who has been offered an allocation and he's a gamer not a car-YouTuber.)Looking forward to the videos for it.
I was at the launch of GT in Detroit 18 months ago and made the call while still in the presentation room then that I would like one so ever since then I've obviously done anything in my power to work with Ford and grow a relationship. I've been to further events in France and Germany to join Ford Performance wherever possible and maintain ongoing dialogue. It hasn't happened overnight by any stretch of the imagination and I am hugely grateful that they've taken the chance on me and I will thoroughly do my best to share every single aspect of the customer process and ownership experience with as many as I can who may otherwise not see much of this car at all.
The RS is a mega-talking point but honestly they had made their allocations prior to me buying that car; they didn't know I had bought it until 12 days ago and the GT list was done by then.
