Great to see the love for Harry on here, by far the best for petrolheads, he shows you things no one else does, like the Countach petrol cap!
Carfection is great now Henry's on there, just got to get Jethro & Dickie on too!
Road and race has had some good content too, really enjoyed their Clio 182 series.
Fully charged has some interesting stuff.
Shmee as has been said is mainly lifestyle related, though some stuff is good, the Mille Miglia was superb, and to hear a Gullwing really sing was stunning.
As per OP interested to know what I'm missing (not really as again like the OP I waste too much time!)
Jethro is on the Motor Trend Channel now. I have seen him on some of the Head2Heads.Carfection is great now Henry's on there, just got to get Jethro & Dickie on too!

I watch a fair few channels as mentioned above plus a few which haven’t.
Visioracer: His channel focuses on anything car and engine related. Pretty interesting and informative.
Autorodeo Nederland: European Banger Racing, some proper brutal smashes.
Motorsport Moments: Compilation videos covering pretty much anything to do with Aussie V8 supercars from crashes to close overtakes.

I've subscribed to Harry M's Garage as it's so eclectic with regard to the cars in it, and what he does with them. The RR to the Arctic was epic.
Others that pop up on my feed include:
> Mat on CarWow (I like the guy; very down to earth)
> Carfection, because Catchpole
> Petrolicious
I also managed to track down a channel which has archived pretty much all of Best Motoring!
START-OH
Doug De Muro I can take or leave. I did enjoy his reviews of a 1970's Eldorado and VW Phaeton, though.

I prefer reviewers that bring something different than the normal "120db with aftermarket exhaust" approach, so for me it's
Doug De Muro
Harry's Garage
Both of the above like to point out weird quirky things about the cars which I like. Plus they review a lot of older cars
Jay Leno has an interesting mix of hypercars and classics with a historic slant
Smoking Tire and Chris Harris (both are a a bit "Clarkson poweeeer") but are engaging - quite Porsche/AMG/M/RS focused
Rebecca Jackson / carbuyer not necessarily for noble reasons!
Not a fan of Shmee, Vehicle Virgins or the other supercar type videos

It's not been mentioned yet but MudNomad is well worth a watch for the early videos. Bit lifestyle-y but in a good way as the lifestyle involves touring around Europe for 1000's of miles in an Ariel Nomad. Later videos perhaps for the fans only and more of a travel vlog.
Ha! Thanks so much. 
Much more to come - this summer we're taking the Nomad to Ireland, Isle of Man, Alps, Spain and Portugal and I've just done first 1000 miles of a massive roadtrip from Florida to Alaska in a supercharged Ford Raptor

Garage 54 translated into English- if you're interested in whether an engine works with wooden cylinders, or drives with 5 tonnes of cement, look no further, as he has done it for you here.
Winding road magazine also do many POV drives with special binaural microphones to make it sound as if you are sitting in the car. Very nice indeed, they like to thrash their cars, whether its a Honda CRV or Lexus LC 500.
Doug DeMuro gets all his attention, but Tyler Hoover (Hoovie's garage) is great too. He has recently bought a stupidly cheap Ferrari, had a stint with a NSX, and many more interesting yet abused cars.
AutoTopNL do something similar. POV drives, autobahn drives and reviews in pleasant Dutch accents. Good for if you're thinking of a particular car and want to know what it might be like on the road.Winding road magazine also do many POV drives with special binaural microphones to make it sound as if you are sitting in the car.

+1 for MudNomad! You're right about needed to start right back at the beginning thought. Art and Ruta are just great to watch. Always surprised when I see how little followers they've got on their vids.Otispunkmeyer said:

I second Mat Watson, amazing chap, have watched him since a long time ago when he used to do CarBuyer videos, and now he does Carwow instead, but has much more freedom to do better content. Great drag races from him as well.
I haven't even mentioned Mastermilo, can't even believe that. Astonishing chap and does some absolutely crazy stuff, such as RollGolf, replacing brake fluid with water, which fuels work if you can't get petrol, shifting into reverse at 70mph, he even tried to drive the Mr. Bean way. Great content, not to be missed, English subtitles on all videos.
Tavarish is great, i'm really enjoying his content about his cheap, ex 'Fast And The Furious' Murcielago.
Harrys Garage is also very good.
Shmee review's really interesting cars and his garage is amazing but I cannot stand his presenting style and find him incredibly irritating, to the point where I am unable to watch any of his video's. Shame.
