Hi I'm Shmeeeeee

Firstly I am a subscriber and I enjoy his channel. His personal style is subjective, please no hating

Also there is a cracking guy on Bimmerpost, SchMark and he's always got excellent Mini's and M2s, excellent taste IMO. I believe he is Schmee's manager.

However, isn't the car 'ownership' just getting a little unbelievable now. 3 Mercs ordered in the last week to qualify for the latest Merc hypercar. Its a total roulette and I can barely believe some of the mileages quoted, he has about 7 cars and has done 20,00 in one of them, right ok?

Not sure where I'm going really, tad bored this morning, but I barely believe he buys many of these, surely all the BMW stuff is paid promotion yada yada, I thought you had to declare that these days? I've certainly seen this stated on more recent car 'reviews' etc now.

as well as being an acquired taste (and one I'm yet to acquire!!), he's a very wealthy bloke by all accounts - heir to the Burton retail business, if it still exists?

Come on Chris, this thread should be titled "Hi GUYS, I'm Shmeeeeee".

Doesn't Tim do specific videos explaining how he can afford all of his cars? I do watch some of his videos but I fast forward most parts. I certainly don't have the patience to watch him explain how he can afford his cars so I don't know the answer personally.

I find it amazing that even when his video is about his McLaren Senna getting crashed, he still speaks with a huge smile on his face and white chatters on full display. It's like he has been cursed to permanently smile, even when he is angry/upset.

Fair play to the guy though, I remember watching his videos before he was famous and I once saw him about in his McLaren MP4C in London. He's on to bigger/better things now.

He seems a nice guy, but it's not a channel for me, I like proper journos like Metcalfe/Harris/catchpole etc....

For me he has no qualifications to educate me on cars and I'm not interested in what he thinks of the latest 720s or Senna.

Annoys the hell out of me!
Don't get me wrong I don't hate because he can afford all the cars he has, but FFS I don't need that smiling smug f****r to shove it home!

I'm going to go out on a limb a bit but I quite like his reviews now ( not so much at first)

He's quite a cheerful bloke and I find his reviews quite interesting.

He's one of those people that is permanently cheerful - I think he'd smile like that while having his nuts kicked in and experiencing a simultaneous colonic irrigation.

I watch the odd episode, He can be vaguely annoying but i dont hate the guy or call him names based on that.
I wouldn't class his videos as reviews like what chris harris does or autocar ect ect, i think they are more of a long term "what its like to live with" the cars, he shows you everything from the general running day to day trips to the annoying things that others wont point out.

He is overly happy but hey, i think if my collection of cars consisted of poster dream cars, id constantly be F"*$ing grinning as well haha!

The voice I could put up with as he does go into a fair amount of detail. What I find most irritating is the constant "I bought one" rubbing it in your face sort of attitude.

Personally I don't mind the guy, bit smug but with all that money who wouldn't be?
Thing is though, every single time I see him I hear Kryten in my head:
Shmeeeegggggg heeeaaaaaad
