Looks like TGE, as well as being a genius designer of parking bay storage solutions, is also a time traveller! We know how he likes to claim to be ‘Londons Hardest Worker’, and I think in that vein, in his latest vlog, he is claiming to be filming at 02.00am Monday. However, halfway through the video, you see the Merc AMG GT’s clocks showing 21.49 Tuesday 01/14/2020. He also gets confused at the video end, stating ‘tomorrow’ to be ‘Wednesday’, not Tuesday (easy mistake if it’s really Tuesday, not Monday). There might be an innocent explanation for the time/date being out of sync, (should be sync’d by GPS, right?). Yet so far he’s not offered an explanation to those asking in his comments section. Stranger still, anyone asking, gets their question removed…
Anyways, so his latest garage queen is somehow a Merc AMG GT Roadster. So the 458 Spider gets bought and sold, with no videos in between (as far as I can see). Found out he’d had it 3 months by searching his Instagram, and finding this. This also, coincidently, shows where he most likely got the idea of the storage box on stilts. Yes, that ‘solution’ has been around for years, if not decades. Already being used in TGE’s communal parking bays by his neighbours, long before he claimed to invent it.
You spent that much time looking at clocks in the video and then went back through 3 months of Instagram posts...which is a lot of posts for any "influencer" type.... F**K me really?Anyways, so his latest garage queen is somehow a Merc AMG GT Roadster. So the 458 Spider gets bought and sold, with no videos in between (as far as I can see).

If you check his instagram story i think he's answered your question
Something about a t-shirt? I saw no t-shirt, so was he referring to that fakery or some other alleged fakery? He has a reputation for smoke and mirrors, so must be busy fending off accusations all the time. But yes, there was an exact continuity of clothing throughout, even down to his filthy finger nails, car park, car position, background noise, etc. Almost as if it was filmed on just one day at just one time.

I was thinking the same, I frequently film clips hours apart that join in the video and you'd never know. Congrats on the 10 years.

Congratulations to Tim on 10years of Shmee150!
Love the level of planning/geekery that it took to make sure your 10,000th Insta post was today and it was of your 10 cars.
Here’s to 10 more

I really do admire all the work and effort Tim has put into his videos over the years, and with no drama or clickbait! No denying that he's one of the most hard working guys in YouTubeLand.
I don't know if Performance Rebuilds have had a mention on here yet but I'm really enjoying binge watching their content. Very down to earth.

+1 Tim has done some serious work over the last 10 years to get to were he is now and those little touches on the 10th anniversary are just a nice geeky extra!
Some people on here like to poke a stick at beefy for some reason, if you don’t like the guy (everyone can’t please everyone) then don’t watch his videos or skip his comments no need to turn to basically bullying. Pretty pathetic really from grown adults.
Really enjoyed JWWs Agera video. Im not sure I've seen it explicitly mentioned but a switch from first person filming? I don't know if this has been the case for a while or not with JWW but certainly looks like a move to a more traditional TV like approach. Production is really good. The setup with the Heritage centre is a good idea. Much better for the channel than a wrapping place.

I find myself strangely invest in what Tim does. You could see real emotion in Tim through his latest 10 year anniversary video.
That's true. One of the most genuine moments especially when he said it is only what he could dream of and how fortune he feels. To be reminded constantly of how many people wish they had half the cars or even one of his cars and not forget it is critical.Shmee150 is the only YT automotive channel I watch daily. He does put in a lot of effort because it's hard to turn out automotive content that's entertaining almost daily in the middle of winter. My only wish is he adds a Lamborghini to his stable, maybe Rana can push him to get a SVJ.
One YT'ber who I really don't understand is Supercar Blondie. Her content is subpar, feels very rushed and sometimes I get the feeling she really doesn't care about what she's reviewing but yet she has tons of subs and views. I also find it interesting that a lot of manufacturers roll out the red carpet for her whilst other big YT'bers get no access. I don't get her appeal.

Because men like looking at women and cars. One YT'ber who I really don't understand is Supercar Blondie.

Because she's a reasonably attractive woman making videos about high-end cars, and she appeals to the kind of people her type of videos appeal to.Cleo from Cars and Bras is probably more the kind of girl you'd actually want to talk about cars with.

Christ! You need to get out more if you 'daily' Shmug. He's the utter embodiment of what's wrong with YT. I'd suggest you broaden your world, just a little... go on... I dare you.
