A meet without idiots would go on without a hitch. Locals would wonder why so many classic or custom cars were around, and that would be it.

@@volvo09 yup, and those of us who are modded car enthusists who want to stand around talking about stuff would enjoy it without it being ruined by all the room temp IQ people showing off for the crowds and bringing the police soon after

half the issue is when someone in their mx5 is revving the tits off it everyone runs to see. Its sad. I would love to go to more meets but i cant be arsed with the revving and pops, doesnt do anything for me.

That’s why you should go to classic car meets and not modded car meets. You still get the odd burnout here and there but the atmosphere is much friendlier.

25 years ago, was completly different, there was still idiots, but non of this antisocial banging, these new cars don't even sound nice,, I think these days the cars have got alot faster, but peoples driving has gone rapidly down hill. Give me the old school cruises any day

In this case id be driving to another area. Many a time sleeping in my van in services

@@brandancarlton-nichols1830Except in a lorry you can’t because once you take your card out/ start your required minimum 9 hours non driving break… you can’t move!

@@Buck3366 i have moved before because of this, many a driver thinks its unbendable. Lack of sleep can lead to a fatality at the wheel, stick it on your log book and your covered

Lol time to wakeup

It's not just finance merchants, it's just pop n bangs that have ruined it, remember people put them on their Base spec Corsa and Fiestas.

You missed the undeclared stage 1 ECU remap they paid for with their dole money.

Yes at the height of it all for me it was scarborough cruise , stopped and taken away from us. Was fantastic last one was 2016 i think

Peaked about 35 years ago for me. But, yeah, I'd agree that around ten years ago was the last time it was worth bothering with.

Imagine what Americans think with their 1000hp+ meets, when they see this 😂

@@J_S591 Just different, muscle cars etc do nothing whatsoever for me.

No one goes? Oh really. You got no idea then

Going off this video it's a chav fest.

@@TomTheGamer913it's full of chavs - this is why car meets are getting broken up by the police! It's utterly anti social

Exactly the same in The Netherlands here. Full of Golfs and Seats with a dumb popping exhaust or beater BMW 3-series trying to drift

If they start closing down $hitty channels like this there might be hope to stop these mugs from coming

Aren't they all

Idk why he goes to them. Tragic and tasteless

@@JC_46 for the views as most do

9:00 sums these meets up for me. Most boring Golf you can buy, completely unremarkable, revving his obnoxious popping map.

@@shia_labeouf The IQ and self awareness required to do that and not be embarrassed must be similar to that of a goldfish

There are several issues with a formal car meetup though. First of all, the organisation would take much longer and would be way harder to do as you need to follow safety guidelines, find a place to host the meet and register the meet which might not even be accepted. Furthermore, certain people would avoid these meet-ups because there is too much police involvement. These people would then just meet up elsewhere triggering the same informal car meet you see right here. Even if you would host a non-registered car meet, it’s pretty much impossible for you to keep these people steady. As you can see, even when the police show up, they don’t give a f***

@myDecisi0n I've been too a car meet with some of the biggest automotive KZfaq creaters in the UK, including AdamC, minimal police presence despite everything from A lamborghini to a Trabant being in attendance, I'd make the argument that creators like AdamC need to get calling this studity out

@@mpainter22 The problem is, you can not fix stupid. Regardless of what you do, there will always be people doing stuff like this

@@yourDecisi0nbut why can't you all park up and just enjoy looking at each others cars and talking about cars Why all the chaos?

@@problemchild1976 Because of group dynamics. Doing chaotic stuff makes you stand out

Agreed. Noises were impressive because they came from impressive mods or interesting engines like burbly V8s, rumbly boxers, or a big turbo. A stupid map slapped on a basic engine isn't impressive.

Dodgy maps have ruined the scene

As I have, to the annoyance of adam, previously said, I used a club rally Cortina or Escort 1 to attend meetings of one sort or the other in a controlled and orderly fashion. These cars were nicely, mechanically tuned, not electronic fiddles. They also ran with muffled straight through pipes and never drew unwarranted attention. I retain the view that adam is a knobhead of unparalleled standing, and would be surprised to find that at some point in the future he gets set about by irate locals that he so enjoys upsetting

Abandoned industrial sites barely exist around here and have no lighting. Airfields cost money to host meets at.

The problem is that even outside of the city, you will annoy the general public as population density is a thing nowadays and a lot of different people will always have conflicting interests. Also, as an organiser, you want your car meet to be as accessible and flexible as possible. If the police show up, you would probably not have as much flexibility as in the city, as there are a lot fewer parking lots for cars to meet up

@@AdamC3046 @myDecision Maybe you could use your influence and KZfaq money to set up locations or get subsidies from airfields and racetracks etc? I just see car meets going the way of bike meets, aka gone!

@@adamduncan6172 it already happens in places. But that won't stop free, easy meetings like this from happening

@AdamC3046 I'm afraid you're probably right mate. Enjoy it while it lasts I say! These things seem to go round in circles, 'what once was will be again' and all that!

Booo hooo

You’re right. These meets have very little to do with cars (for the majority). It’s an excuse for obnoxious behaviour and having a crowd to disappear into.

You should've chosen #AdamCFest ;)

@@AdamC3046 hahaha well i had to choose one and my car is a shed so... 🤣

There are plenty of events that are as you explain, but these meets are in addition to that.

@AdamC3046 & we played this game a few months ago mate. U can see the result of these meets are not good for the car scene community. The cars for the most part are well done, just need to the clowns to stop.

@@tranceman9670 what game? I'm just telling you what's happening.

@AdamC3046 bad choice of words, the back & forth I guess. U guys just need to calm down & win back the local community or u will just keep getting chased out.

@tranceman9670 that's never realistically going to happen.

It’s still a lot better than a Toyota Prius that’s for sure as old top Gear showed us that at normal speed a E 92 M3 with a 4 L V8 is more economical than Toyota Prius 😂😂

@@ashleytombs I remember watching that 👍😁

@@davidrobert2007 same who would’ve thought a big V-8 would be more economical than a hippie car Another good episode when the boys got invited to turn the Christmas lights on in Blackpool but starting line was 860 miles away in Switzerland what was the more impressive Jeremy driving a TwinTurbo jaguar and he was driving it like a madman all the way there because he thought it was ridiculous idea so with economical cars like that you wonder why everyone is buying electric cars but Oil we’ll still be here in 100 years The only Time we should worry is when the big 400 m container ships that can carry 22,000 containers stopped working because without all those bringing all of our goods from around the world The whole world would be screwed without them

As an xc90 owner I can confirm the mpg is shockingly bad. Especially dynamic mode,

@@DisAstra-qx9gq that wouldn’t surprise TBO what uses even more fuel than that is if you drive to your local corner shop that is a 10 minute walk from your house guarantee you probably use more fuel starting your car then going there and back Plus I absolutely love the engine in XC90 If it’s an old model then it will have the same 4.4L V8 As the noble M600 which has 650hp an a top speed of 225 mph

I never use websites, always word of mouth

Experience

80% of what I film is used I'd say. I've been doing this long enough to know what's content and what's not.

I can't say I know much, but I swear any 'modded' car I see is just a stock with a louder exhaust - mine had a crack and all of a sudden I was a boy racer... even noticed it got one girls attention.. but it was literally a broken muffler!

Pathetic 😂

It was all for the #content

You cant its to stop that very thing from happening

Usually some bright spark stickers it

@@carguy792 so just pay £100 or £60 within two weeks?

I have been told his only fans is meant to be very good as well 😀😀

ME!

Great guy great channel . But 2 much mentions of 350zs on other episodes

For car meet content in the UK... Yes

I document every part of the scene. You only seem to focus on these videos, but whatevs

@@AdamC3046 you also document your “car shows” which essentially is this but in the day on a bit of grass. Revving like idiots, driving like idiots when there is spectators around and overall making a mockery of people who spend countless hours building their cars in the uk for this to be the type of representation we get. You having a large platform should be boycotting this sort of thing not glorifying it.

​@@DigBawgtotally agree .

Petrolheads? did you spell that correctly?

They idle for hours

Yeah, looks terrible on that chaser.

@@volvo09 I don't think Jap cars suit any Matt colours not just black. Completely destroys the body lines!

I think I'd have to be pretty wasted to enjoy ones like this!

That would be because they’re traffic officers who usually only deal with problems on the roads.

5's are great fun difference is i don't go to meets but go on broad runs at night with a small group it's way more fun

hi adamC

Love your vids man @@AdamC3046

​@@AdamC3046ha😂

Hi adamC

ok

My what?

@@AdamC3046 the light blinking on the cluster of the chaser 😅

@@ricardocunha1542 in which part of the video is that visible?

@@AdamC3046after min 14.30 but i was just joking , i love you 😅

@ricardocunha1542 ahh, didn't think it'd be visible as that's my broken traction control 🫣
