I agree he is probably underrated. I used to watch some of his videos but was put off by some of the content because it was neither here nor there. Have watched more recently because he's branched out beyond MB. It is good but maybe still lacking when it comes to the driving experience from a true driver perspective (Harris, Catchpole, Metcalf, Bovington and the like).

Hey everyone, my GT4 is currently in production. Build was originally meant to be finished on the 24th of Feb, then got pushed back to the 8th of March, then the 9th of March, now it has been pushed back to 17th of March (CP8 date)
Has anyone had a similar experience recently? I am hoping that there are no further delays since the car has been in production for a month now
Also, how long do cars take from the factory to get to the UK and then from Sheerness to the dealer? I'm hearing all types of horror stories of cars being stuck at the port for weeks on end

I find I have my short list of people I go to depending what type of content I'm after.

I think Catchpole is the best of the best. Harris is really good but sometimes can be off putting if the car doesn’t drift lol. Although in regards to Harris, on cars that he’s reviewed and I have owned, we share similar opinions so I do trust him the most. I’m not familiar with metcalf I don’t think. I’m going to go in a different direction on remove before race. That’s actually one of the reasons I like him. I find he doesn’t influence me on the car and I come away with my own opinion. It’s kind of like watching a boxing fight without commentary and scoring it yourself. It’s not something I would do if I had to buy the car without driving it, but I like that he just gives me the facts of the car and that’s more of less it.

Harry Metcalfe, Harrys Garage. Different age category to me, older. But he has a wealth of car knowledge, driving, founder of EVO Magazine and just the type of content I like for detail, information, projects and perspective.

Henry might very well be the best mix.

With the dearth of pccb and the recent announcement to prioritize them on gt3s and 4RS (if I recall correctly), I’m pretty psyched my spyder still seems to be getting them. Maybe if it was a bgts, I wouldn’t be so lucky.

I've got a Spyder allocation with a June build. My CBA got a "V100 - Feasibility Check Failed" response for my PCCB's when he submitted my Spyder build to Porsche NA last Friday, March 11th. I asked today if he's heard anything further from Porsche NA and mum is the word...nothing. I think his strategy is to hold out and see what they say. He said they definitely WILL contact him for the V100 issue...but nothing yet. Sure would be nice if somehow I could get the PCCB's!

My build is scheduled this month: Mar 25 - Apr 1.
I wouldn’t at all be heart broken if forced to do a ST retro-fit. Not a bad option at all, from my research.
