    First video I ever watched of CH was the Aston Martin video where it starts with Chris in the gym working out his left leg.
    I was hooked.
    I watched every single CHOC video I could find.
    Years later and in my mid 30s, watching this makes me somewhat emotional. It’s like I’m in my 20s again broke and in college dreaming about cars.
    Way to make us feel, Monkey. We need more of this in the world. Cheers, mate!

Is a steak pie better than a chocolate brownie? Is Chris better than Henry. I think that I'll have them both!

    So nostalgic yet once again refreshing to see Chris doing what he does best and reviewing cars the way he wants to .
    EVER since CHRISHonCars has been MIA . Watching old videos was the next best thing ! Watching other channels reviews is like I’m reading from a magazine or being read an article …on the other hand a video from ChrisH feels more like a mate taking you on a joyride in his New (in this case )Aston Martin …
    Sadly there’s not many actual OG magazine editors who does RUclips videos full /part time left .. ppl like Chris H & Steve Sutcliffe etc.. seeing a new video from them is like receiving your bonus at the end of the year:- Rarely happens but when it does your over the moon …!
    So once again if CHRIS turns back on PATREON … to have Chris-on cars back even a few 2-3 vidoes a month .. I for one are happy to donate again! Cheers CHRIS

      Chris is only marketable to those that are already well-aware of who is he and what hes best at. and thats not as many people as you'd hope. The BBC would want high viewing figures for 1/20 the production cost of TG.
      Id also love such a show, but "BBC's CHOC" would be resigned to iplayer only after one season because only his existing audience would watch.
      sorry to be a downer but I just think us fans of Chris and old TG etc get a little carried away/underestimate just how niche our love for cars/motoring truly is.

    Just start driving all the ones we love Chris. On road and track please quite sideways on both. 430 Scud, 675 LT, E39 M5, F355, 997 GT3RS. A modern classics series from you would be largely viewed

    I saw the video title and initially thought why is RUclips bringing up things from like 9 years ago…I hope the content comes regularly
