The financials of a KZbin channel like this aren't great in the long term. I'm sure they made decent money in the first few years but KZbin's algorithm really prioritizes new content creators and certain kinds of content (i.e. clickbait and stupid fucking faces on the thumbnails)

This video simultaneously evoked the feelings of a) you taking me out in an e46 M3 at the 2003 Autocar Sideways Challenge and b) you taking the time to have a photo with my son William 20 years later. There’s a lot of bravado in motoring but for me it’s at its greatest when people are simply having fun. Keep up the good work!

Hello Chris, (in case you read these) I met you on holiday in the UK just after the Covid restrictions had been lifted and had a chat with you about how the content we enjoy watching and making the most. It was somewhat surreal for me, I was gushing a lot... I still cringe slightly at the thought of the memory. Anyway, I told you how much the interview with Norbert Singer on the 962 meant to me, our love for old Peugeots and Porsches managed to connect us after a bit of a rocky start. These fantastic videos about Porsches, the F40/F50 or the 918/P1/LaFerrari where you're really in your element are an absolute marvel of automotive journalism and I'm happy I got to say to your face how much I enjoy your work. Please keep making these videos
