Thanks, a lot of people don't like the colour as they say it's too popular, and whilst it is, by a decent amount the most popular colour for the R, it is the only colour exclusive to the R. I'm debating on whether to get some coilovers for the car and leave the rims standard, or buy 19" rims, and lower it slightly.

Can you re-mount the front plate straight, please?

I know... it set my OCD off too. They are the holes which the dealer must have drilled, or the previous owner. I'm just conscious of re-drilling the holes so close to the original.

Get new plates and stick them on
Good idea.. I'm looking into removing the plinth and having the shortened plates that I had, in which case I can just stick them on.
Sorry, I had to screenshot this as it made me laugh:
Anyway, putting aside the whole tragic "pls sub guys pls" approach, here's some actual feedback:
Your vids are all over the place. There appears to be no structure, no planning, you just seem to hop in and start recording and it shows. You put no effort in to your appearance either. Do your hair, lose the stupid hat (name one successful car channel which features a hat) and at the very least scribble down some notes and refer to them when recording. Don't dwell, don't go round in circles, just get it all out and move on to the next part. You can make a successful channel but you're approaching it all wrong. As it is you're just coming across as lazy and fly-by-night, and there are literally millions of channels on Youtube with that approach. Make yourself stand out a bit.

Thanks Diddums, I'll work on it
to see how i progress then please... oh wait 
My only advice is...stop saying 'ehm..' after everything you say
Agreed. It's something I did pick up on and that's down to the preparation/planning

Leave the rims I would go a bit lower it would look better suited for the car

The videos don’t particularly slap you in the face tbh, maybe try some obscure camera angles....?
Something like this (did this years back by taping my phone to my truck)
I’d also stick TDI badges on it......

It's all in the pipework buddy, just trying to figure everything out at the moment. Camera angles, locations and everything like that.

SOL too..

Welcome to the forums.
My advice on your videos...? I can't hear a single thing you're saying unless I turn the volume up way too loud for everything else! Get a proper mic

Surprised by this if I'm honest, I've watched them back on iPhone & TV, they seem to be OK to me. My other half doesn't have the best of hearing and she manages OK too.
I have looked into external microphones
