Refreshing change? A well-off posh white guy? Yeah definitely not enough of those out there.
Talking about the car, not themselves, never really thought about his colour or wealth .I try to watch other YTs but they just talk nothing and actually have quite dull personas, as their only interest is the ablity to buy stuff, but they appeal to their audience, like instagrammers do, living vicariously through someone else's shallow life.
The guy posted was instantly different to that.
Chris Harris talking some serious sense here. Really hitting the nail on the head:

I'd like more of this Harris than the buffoon TG has pigeon holed him into.

I never managed to get in with BMW/MINI. Shame as I've had quite a few beemers in my time.
Without wishing to give away industry secrets 
the key is going to the SMMT Test Days. Gets your face in front of the PRs, you can have a good chat. Just gives them a face and an actual human instead of the 100 Instafluencers emails they get asking them every day. egor110 said:

Your channel is good because you review different older interesting cars .Reviewing the same cars as everyone else wouldn’t add anything.
Oh I've done the SMMT and motor show bit. I'm quite happy with the selection of manufacturers I have access to at the moment, I've added a few new ones this year and am sure the rest will come - to be perfectly honest I more enjoy the individual owned cars anyway as they come with a great story and I'm not competing against a hundred other people all putting out a story on the same car that day.
Noting BMW was an observation, not a complaint. Apparently they're quite nice to deal with.
It's funny I do get a few comments saying "Why don't you do this exactly like this other YouTuber"... isn't variety meant to be the spice of life?

It was good, and the ‘CHEEEEEERS’ with added vibrato, was the cherry on top: https://youtu.be/xfwCIAkCcsA?t=680
I'm working as hard as I can to roll them more and more 
Tin of custard I feel has to appear sometime somewhere

I think a tin of Birds Custard powder needs to feature unannounced and unmentioned somewhere in the upcoming Shmee man cave...
To be fair, that would be quite funny. I'll see what I can do and how long it takes to get noticed from when that goes live in January (fingers crossed).Shmee said:

Anyone else pay for YouTube Premium? Just opened the App and they’re giving all Premium members a free Google Nest Mini worth £49. Not bad!
Yes, and had my google home mini about 6 months into my subscription. Currently sitting on my desk at work, unopened as I have no use for it. By the way, the $10 a month is the best thing I did to get rid of the ads and open up other content. Worth the money.
This is a bit of a curveball to the industry in which I work:

A paid promo piece for BMW's flagship M car, months before any journalist from a magazine or online will drive the M8 GC, and that's the first presentation the world sees.
I'm worried that even what I do is now quickly heading towards being out of date
Social media will continue to be bizarre!
