Jame's new car has arrived, and that is a nice spec!

It is necessary to post a link to every JWW/Manny/Shmee vid here, they are all well known here, if people wanted to watch they would have already.

I believe the word you are looking for is 'colour'.

Spec Schmec.

Necessary? No Helpful? Yes, not everybody is a total youtube tart and giving people the easy option to watch what is being discussed is appreciated - even if you (or I) have no intention of following the link.

As much as I dislike JWW, it's also not hard to skip past a post. It's not like someone has written you a personal letter to say JWW has uploaded a new video.

I'd rather people felt the freedom to post whatever they wanted to talk about that's YouTube related without fear of judgement.

Indeed. Although perhaps any posted videos should be noteworthy and not just "Vlogger 'buys' car in nice colour".

YouTube channels do have a 'subscribe' button, seems a reliable option

You can see why various car makers are desperate to hold back the tide...they're done for!

My point is that it brings no value, everyone knows about JWW. I could post every Cleetus video here, but I know he is well known enough here that i don't need to. Especially if said video is just the standard stuff that channel produces week in week out. Also just read the room a bit, HSO has been here long enough to know he is pretty much the only one posting that enjoys his content.

Taylor on the podcast. I assume we’ll here some kind of loose apology / sob story?

I hope not, it's all been blown so far out of proportion.

All he needs to say is - I fked up, I've learned my lesson, it won't happen again.
Then just get on with it.

Has he (and Alex) not already done that in one of the many posts they put out at the time?

To be fair I posted JayEmm's review on here as he drove my car - figured that that was noteworthy enough (obviously those whose cars he hasnt driven may feel differently)

James, Manny and Tim are universally hated on here, I don't post every video they do, just ones i think one or two here may be interested in, this should have been the car he used for Gumball last year but it didn't arrive in time.

That's an education in how to do a fluff piece for Jonny Smith. I am a fan of Rich from his early days of narrating photographs of him repairing Delores the Copart Tesla with a kitchen knife. I enjoyed the video and Rich's unique style.

However, Rich does not mention if the prices quoted are before or after the 100% tariff Biden put on Chinese cars. That is why there are 0 Chinese EVs in the US with the exception of those doing tours.

Indeed. Plus get someone to pay attention during the edit and cut anything slanderous.

That is not going to go well for him, I can imagine the comments already.

Jamie/Officially Gassed has bought a new supercar, 150k ish budget. 2 videos about it, test driving 3 cars.

Always like seeing him do well, fair play to him.

Watched some off of JWW Lambo vid, but was it only me that thought the front number plate was on wonky? Would of thought if you drop £500k on a car it should of at least been on straight, or was it just stuck on for the film and then be removed like most of them?

I noticed that, he usually uses those stickers to stick the plates on for some reason but I am sure he has a car where the plates are stuck on magnetically, why anyone would do this I really don't know, could have just be put on for the video as it's a big normal size plate, most Lambo's people with have a personal reg plate and they usually have less letters and numbers.
