I like High Peak Autos, good channel and a nice guy. Wide spread of car types too.

I think Big Car and Ed's auto reviews are outstanding.

Big Car's are so well researched, really good stuff and I've wathced his entire content. Brilliant.

Ed is so Dutch it's funny. Once you get past his unique accent, the content really is superb. Highy recommended.

If you like cars, the channels above really are worth investigating.

I have also wathced a lot of content by Car UK. A proper motor trader with a pitch. Lots of interesting videos on buying. Aston Barclay haven't changed much since I last bought from them c20yrs ago. Still fast, still fun and bargains to be had for the brave.

I've been watching that Vintage Voltage

Good car conversion program where owners get their old cars converted to EV

What I don't understand is, the last 3 I've watched, and checked on the DVLA system, out of interest, is they are still listed as petrol !
Let's be careful out there !

These days of complicated electronic vehicles makes me think I'd have liked to have had some of my old cars brought back to new by an expert team

There have been a lot of car sausage repeats recently so a new series tip is welcome

I didn't watch the hill climb or tractor fix as not of interest to me

I've never been really interested in the way car shows are presented, I could the same about many shows.
It often seems to be more about the presenters than the cars.

But I do occasionally watch "car restorations" on YouTube, as long as they don't include someone talking to the camera.
