A 20 something that watches the likes of Harry's Garage would probably be classed a weirdo by his peers these days.
Sad times.
Maybe Harry is doing YouTube wrong to entice the younger viewers. Sad times.
He doesn't follow the correct YouTube video best practice of a camera facing introduction about today's 'show', followed by a flashy pointless channel intro jingle and then him starting the actual content by rephrasing what he just said in the initial intro, rendering the entire first 30 seconds of the video completely pointless. All topped off with an oversaturated thumbnail that features him pulling a stupid shocked face.

Yep, the formula is very tired. I'm only 33 but HG is the best channel out there for me.
The Poundland window style screenshots are very beneficial. Without them you would be wasting a lot of time dropping in on banal content from weirdly over emotional people. I get my fix of people waving limbs about, getting over excited, repeating themselves endlessly along with comedy English when we face time the in-laws in Italy.
There's a fine line with content that sits between Sunshine bus entertainer and actuary awards presenter.
Colin Furze is my limit. And he only gets away with it because of the twisted genius aspect.

Good Audi review from Harry's nearly empty garage....
Question, it cost £13 to add 80 odd miles. That does not seem very efficient, surely the average petrol car would do better. Guess home charging makes it more efficient
The car grew on me and very impressed with the interior
Roughly 38mpg cost equivalent, by my quick calculation, for that particular charge-up.Question, it cost £13 to add 80 odd miles. That does not seem very efficient, surely the average petrol car would do better. Guess home charging makes it more efficient

Hi Harry, if you do decide to do more older/modern classics from the noughties I'd be happy to lend you my Alpina B5 Touring for a review (1 of 3 UK RHDs) 2005 and completely stock and pretty much the same performance stats as a Ferrari F430 which was on sale new at the same time (slightly more bap and a lot more torque for mine, but of course heavier than the Fezza so the 430 is 3mph faster top speed and about half a second quicker to 60. I don't live too far from you either, would love to see my car reviewed (and maybe have a nosey at your cars and bikes in return - I'm a biker and loved the bike reviews even though I know you said they didn't do the numbers that the car ones do).
Audi is a brand which does little for me.
I'm really not keen on the idea of this electric car revolution.
Loved the e-tron, I never thought I would choose an Audi over a Porsche but I'm sold on that.
I just need about £130K to buy one unless they'll take my daily driver in px in which case it's about £129500.
Seriously though - great video.

I assume a top up, so journey cost you need to also start with the full from home charge before letting public charge dilute the low cost average before using it as raw data. Does the average petrol car also have over 500bhp?Question, it cost £13 to add 80 odd miles. That does not seem very efficient, surely the average petrol car would do better.

Hardly a surprise it'll be expensive though.You can charge like a pleb at a slower charger with poor usability/limited reliability for a fraction of the price, but lose a sizable portion of your day to it.
Or you can pay through the nose for a fast charger with a decent app at a posh cafe and have an overpriced sandwich while you wait for your 45 minute charge to complete.
You need to get home and your mate can't just pop down with a carton of volts to get you on your way so have absolutely no option but to make a choice between your time and your money.
