I rebuilt a wrecked McLaren 720s but it is currently illegal in the UK. We have been modifying the car to be legally imported into the country but in the process we we're stopped by the police and they we're extremely confused!

Bro, the Kiwi is from New Zealand. Bruce Mclaren was a New Zealand racing driver. Don't take that away from us. 😢😂

the thing i love about Mat compared to other channels is that 1. He posts long videos with actual content 2. He's never changed since the beginning 3. Most importantly, he is consistent with his uploads and doesn't just upload when viewership is high or just to satisfy sponsors Thanks Mat!!

@ThorDyrden Ай бұрын

may I add the integration of the product placement into the storytelling? Understandable he needs to make a living from these videos, and they are a lot of work to produce... so product placement is a "necessary evil", but when it is no break, but integrated into the story it is much less disturbing.

@djshotty1969 Ай бұрын

Another thing? He advertises his sponsors in a way that doesn't sound like an advert, or pressuring folks to buy. It's more like, "I use this stuff myself, I love it, my friends and family love it so you should try it too."
