Motoring YouTubers.. Who do you watch and why?

[sjj84]

Harrys garage is probably my favourite, where else can you watch new car reviews, old banger rolls royces and combine harvesters all in one place!
Project Binky is also brilliant, they've also started another project building a car transporter.
Anything with Chris Harris, his passion and excitement is enjoyable to watch.
Urchfab is another I enjoy, it's a one man band putting the chassis and running gear of a mx5 into the body of an old Ford. I enjoy all the fabrication work of this sort of video rather than the bullst of the youtube influencers.

[CarreraLightweightRacing]

Anything from the following list is a safe bet

-HomebuiltbyJeff
-Bad Obsession Motorsport
-Chris Harris
-Henry Catchpole (Carfection)
-Harrys Garage
-Jethro Bovingdon
-Evo


Others that haven't been mentioned:

TheCarGuys are new to the scene and have a different style which may tickle your fancy.
Number27 is also worth trying.
Driftworks (Phil Morrison) - some great engineering

Totally forgot about Best MOTORing official!

It's like watching Gran Turismo but in real life.

Just wish they did English subtitles though.

This video sees them actually racing 2000's sports and supercars with a reverse grid at Suzuka!

Enjoy....

I think it makes it more amusing that you have no idea what they are chuntering on about, or why is there always a random girl dressed in a skimpy animal costume?

Also, one of the drivers is called 'Nob'.

Doug Demuro- He is kinda odd but it just works. All types of cars from exotic Ferrari’s to Hondas to 4x4s.

Car Throttle- some of the most recent videos remind me of the early Top Gear days. Cheap car challenges etc. https://youtu.be/I1AeAY8nn_s

Donut Media- might not be to everyone’s taste but I rate them highly. In particularly the ‘up to speed’ videos, this being one of my favourites ;

Informative but not boring.

Yeah I'm a recent subby to Donut Media as well; I really like his presenting style although it won't be for everyone. Only fly in the ointment is a lot of smaller youtubers are complaining about DM saying they are using their clips without giving any credit. Every DM video I've seen has video credits on the screen when they play 3rd party clips so not too sure how big an issue it is.

Right now my go to channels are DM, Doug, Hoovie, watchJRGO, Goonzsquad, Savage Garage and a bunch of small US-based channels that focus on trucks (Whitlock Garage, Furry Dice, Ron Finger etc).

I'm another one that really enjoys the up to speed videos. Some of them I've watched on more than one occasion and I enjoy the humour as well.

‘Pop up headlights’ has been stuck in my head for a few days now

Quite by chance I happened upon https://www.youtube.com/user/coldwarmotors Scott and his mates are a bunch of crazy pot smoking beer swigging Canadians from Alberta who all have one thing in common; a love of old cars and trucks.

Being very old and having spent some time on the Prairies, I absolutely love this channel, ok the camera work is a bit naff at times but stick with it and i'm sure you'll enjoy Scotts fabrication skills if nothing else.

Edited to add; don't watch it if you're averse to a bit of bad language!

I've recently discovered the Cleetus McFarland channel and have ended up binging on his uploads in chronological order... what a guy. Serious work ethic, totally down to earth and utterly batsh!t insane.

Hell yeah brother!

Do it for Dale.

Come a long way since sticking duck calls in his Corvette's exhaust!

Cars with Luke

Nice humble chap with great production/cinematography.

Generally Porsche/Audi content as he is based in Switzerland and seems to do freelance work for them. Seems to have a good lifestyle and probably deserves a few more subscribers given the quality.

My latest addiction is watching Arthur Tussick unbend cars:

Good grief, I've just watched his BMW 7 series rebuild! Anyone else would just go "yeah, that's getting turned into dog food tins"
