Alright TGE, you did the right thing! This time for me is rather shite still not back to work and I'm honestly going out of my mind. It's awful! But trying to stay sane 👍🏼
Completely understandable. Literal pandemic, economy shut down and for someone who just quit their day job and invested their time and efforts into businesses that aren't guaranteed to make certain amount per month, anyone with 10 or more brain cells will understand. And if they don't, you paid for it, it was your car, and you can do what you want lol. Keep it up.
Don't feel dishonest or anything of that sort when you make a smart (business) decision regarding the JCW GP. Couldn't foresee what the future would bring at that time and yet you went above and beyond to provide us with content, which I did appreciate very much sir. That's churning on boss level.
It could've been worse mate. You could've punted it to Archie & had it wrapped pink. So at least you spared us that. To be honest I wasn't that fussed on it anyway and you have much better cars still In the garage.
These full honestly videos are so much better than the normal churn. Just as a content idea, should do a from wake up to bed, what a full day in the life of Tom is like 🤷🏼♂️ be a fun one for your brother as well as he seems to be constantly moving 🤣🤣
It's all relative... doesn't really matter "how much" you have but times were/are concerning....you need to make sure your own house is in order.....nice vid!!
Understandable and responsible bud - just one of those things - I hope Mini haven’t been too hard on you - we live in by far the most uncertain times right now! - ONWARDS!👍👍👍
Appreciate ur honesty Tom. Under the circumstances at the time, it’s understandable that u decided to sell the Mini. It won’t b hard to get one in the future if u want to. Love the RR. The perfect multi purpose vehicle. It can do it all. U should always have a RR amongst ur fleet of vehicles. 👍👍
I picked up a CTEK on your reccomendation a while back. Done 3 miles in 4 months in my supercharged VX220 (notorious for draining their battery) and the CTEK has kept the battery very happy, starts up first time every time. Cheers Laddo x
Great video Tom 👍🏼 thanks on sharing you're insides on your covid situation. Hope everyone stays safe. Let's keep working to get better out of this pandemic. Cheers.
Tom, only you know your business and situation, you called it at the time which was right for you, always best to look forward and not backwards, keep on trucking and smashing it from a business sense....
That's a very nice car but the range rover is one of my favourites. When I lived in Sweden I dreamed of buying a white range rover with bulletproof windows and move to Samaria. And now I live here but without a car. I love your videos so keep in posting and stay safe 🙏
Congrats for your honesty and humble open conversation about this topic. This is very helpful for other people as a awareness. Do not put yourself into a position that will led you to a rope on the throat situation. Like you said, is just a car not a medicine!
Another great video, seen you a couple months ago near Wandsworth in your amg gtr. What an amazing car and reg, mate. All the best, I look forward to the next one.
I totally get why you sold it when you did. It was also your choice and no one knew what might happen. I am always amazed by how many people have 2020 hindsight. I, like you, buy things or sell things when it suits me. So I bought an F12 in August. My first super car. I don’t care if it was conventionally the ‘wrong time’. I did the maths about where the world is now and decided I could afford it. Job done.
I do like your straight talking honest approach , long may you prosper , keep up the good work, life is hard at the moment, but you have to roll with the punches..
Honesty wins every time, you've got a wide audience and I'm sure Mini don't question your integrity. They will soon be back onside once the pandemic has lifted and they bring out the next special edition..
So good, and you do know how to make a epic video. You did the right thing, mini may be a little annoyed but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Having a roof over your head sometimes is more important!!
To be honest Tom I watch these videos for your personality and the way you present things and make me chuckle. I couldn't give a monkeys what chunk of metal you're cutting about in. Sure its good to have lots of content on different or popular cars from a business perspective, but I'd rather watch a video of honesty like this than a load of false promises. Congrats on a good year mate.
Probably correct thing to do given the timing. Don’t think anyone can give you much grief, a few GP owners will be sad they can’t share opinions on it. Important message at the end - I’m not convinced they know either but people need to stop whinging and follow the advice.
Made the right choice with the information you had at the time no one should blame you for that! I also thought this was a “ I sold my mini to Emma Walsh”😑😂
I think you did what was right for you at the time and good on you. Glad things are going good for you now. As you say a car is a car not the end of the world 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😁
Totally sensible decision- and actually, I think the car looks pants regardless XD. Like the rangie though! Quality. Has the older one gone then? Clearly can't keep up
Tom totally agree with your decisions, uncertain times its just not worth the risk - No-one can judge you on that and if they do then well you know the answer to that. RR still looking nice though eh? :-) Have to say we love our new JCW Countryman......so who know maybe you should do that next for a change :-)
I honestly wondered why you bought that. Not because of your income and employment status... But because it's a mini. It's a cool(ish) car but you've got a pretty impressive garage. On to the next one!
Gp’s are super rare only 500 in the US so 2500 for the rest of the world, if you can afford hundreds of thousands of dollars of cars why not get a fun little car for UK roads? You’re owning a piece of British history whether it’s “impressive” or not is not the point
You and Archie are curious. I watch many car channels and I’m used to a certain amount of garage changes, but it feels like you guys have new cars every month. How do you two not lose all your money
Makes complete sense mate. Would you ever consider having less cars say 4 really special ones and pushing more content with them. As always love the content... keep it coming
Suppose the question would be would Mini have taken the car back at list ? If not then selling to someone else is fair. Maybe no Christmas card from mini this year.
Hi Tom, you did what you thought is best for you at the time and at the end of the day it’s your money and you had to paddle through some choppy waters and you come out of that better and stronger and to be fair I don’t think anyone will have a pop at you for doing what’s needed. The are many people around the the U.K. selling their family car as they can’t pay the bills or the rent and some also have been depending on food banks and that’s before we leave the EU full stop at the end of December. I think it’s safe to say at this moment in time the music is slowing and when the music stops this country will get real extremely quick as COVID-19 has just been the starter on the menu and the main is Brexit and your a clever guy you can work out the rest. Best wishes Alan B 💙❤️💙👍👍
Sensible decision at a difficult time 👍🏻 Miss Emma Walsh will lend you hers for some content I’m sure, just lend her the 992 Turbo S and she will be more than happy 😉
If you thought that was the right thing to do at the time then it was. The world was falling into uncertainty. If you had cancelled the order it would have been worse for BMW. You are running a business so it has to make viable sense. Keep up the good work 👍

I'd happily flip my kidney if it meant 💰
As you have other cars bought on finance should have moved one of those on instead but took the easy option instead wrong move
Alright TGE, you did the right thing! This time for me is rather shite still not back to work and I'm honestly going out of my mind. It's awful! But trying to stay sane 👍🏼
Collection vid and car goes...hmm, you slag off others for being dishonest 🤔
@@nprinslo hypocrisy.
Should've called it "Why my GP went in the sea faster than the M4 DTM"
Nothing will visit the sea faster than the M4 dtm debaccle
What about the 458 Spider. Moved away in silence.
Lmfao amazing 🤣🤣👏👏👏👏👏👏
or the gt4
Sivar de Witte naa sure there was a video for that!
Dunno why but i prefer these churns as opposed to the professional videos you put lol..
A F definitely, the video is so basic it’s enjoyable. Same as More than Cars,
Dragon den
I dunno if it's in your delivery but your the only RUclipsr that does this and it dosent piss me off 😂 I love a tge churn
Oioi

You mean plandemic?
Guy quit his job then bought a CGT. Doing not bad if I say
Let’s go Thomas, another day another churn. Love it.
Wise decision to get rid of it at list Tom especially in the circumstances!

Uhhh, because it’s a Mini-Cooper and you have at least a Carrera GT LOL?

It would be soooooo boring 😂
TGE TV haha but will give people an insight into the real daily life instead of what they assume is the norm 🤣🤣
agreed !
It's all relative... doesn't really matter "how much" you have but times were/are concerning....you need to make sure your own house is in order.....nice vid!!
Eyes peeled for the upside down go pro clips 😂😂😂💃💃💃💃 edited this in about 25 mins. Sorry
Thought it was on purpose😂
@@TDUTOM Same
Nah it's cash lad don't worry about it 😂
😂🤣😂🤣😂 it was spotted and noted. Quite stylish. I was watching it sideways on my iPad so was a tad weird. But still good. 👏👌cheers Tom 🥃
Thought it was artistic 👌
we love churns. i’d stick to them tom. bring back the late night car park churns. very lovely video anyway!
In the sea with the DTM and GT4 lad 🌊
Saw an M2 in there too
Just want to say your an absolute g. Honest humble and most of all a genuine top lad.
Thank you lad ❤️
I never thought I'd be jealous of someone's rare car charger😂

I thought you’d sold it to Emma Walsh lol
NickG24 lame joke
Miss Emma Walsh sorry x
Love your garage. It’s a delight just to see your garage and your hard work. It’s inspirational. Love your humour aswell
Great video Tom 👍🏼 thanks on sharing you're insides on your covid situation. Hope everyone stays safe. Let's keep working to get better out of this pandemic. Cheers.
Au contraire, Tom. You were very honest today. It was like you were telling a close mate, Chapeau!
I wouldn't bother getting another GP mate, what you _really_ need, is a Dacia Sandero.
Why a Dacia Sandero?
@@BobH809 It's a silly joke relevant to 'the old' Top Gear fans ;)
@@bob808 Oh yeah, I remember it now as you have mentioned it. Good Old Top Gear.
Tom, only you know your business and situation, you called it at the time which was right for you, always best to look forward and not backwards, keep on trucking and smashing it from a business sense....
Sounds like you made a smart decision Tom. Good outcome. You’ve got a great collection still to enjoy 👌👏
Great video Tom. Honest decisions made! Keep on churning these chaos vids 👍💯
That's a very nice car but the range rover is one of my favourites. When I lived in Sweden I dreamed of buying a white range rover with bulletproof windows and move to Samaria. And now I live here but without a car. I love your videos so keep in posting and stay safe 🙏

that topsy turvy camera is absolute chaos
Very wise to do what you did Tom. Keep up the churn lad
I totally get why you sold it when you did. It was also your choice and no one knew what might happen. I am always amazed by how many people have 2020 hindsight.

Hahaha. Heroic comment. Everyone’s situation is different anyway. I know people that have become millionaires off what’s happened
Good to hear business is still booming lad lad
You got to do what you got to do, just means there's more space for another 1 😉 cheers steve 👍 😀
I do like your straight talking honest approach , long may you prosper , keep up the good work, life is hard at the moment, but you have to roll with the punches..

Wise thing to do at time good news things are going well for u over last few months. Keep up good content 🙂
I am sure its in Thailand and I saw it the other day and said to my girlfriend, thats strange to see one of these rare modals out here? how funny
Mad video TGE keep it up 👍
Good video, enjoyed the honesty, don't think many people would have an issue with this.
Keep plugging away, Tom .... good on ya.
Absolutely loved the content with this ca- oh wait 😂 well the M4 DTM and JCW can rev battle in the sea together
Well said Tom, Mini UK should think there were no loses by you not putting doom and gloom into the new car market!
Literally I'd forgot you even got it. You've got your own reasons for doing it. End of the day, you've got to do what you got to do.
To be honest Tom I watch these videos for your personality and the way you present things and make me chuckle. I couldn't give a monkeys what chunk of metal you're cutting about in.

Thank you - appreciate it
@@TGE Any time. Too many lads in youtube comments who seem to think they get to decide how you play with your cash!
Them battery chargers that keeps the car going while the batteries out 👍👍 you just sold one to me
We all have to make the right decision at the moment in time which sometimes we don't want to. Life goes on
Very honest Tom ... though I bought a CTEK charger based on watching your videos at the beginning of lockdown back in April.
Cheers lad! They’re game changers
Great video TGE. Certainly tough times and I completely understand your decision.
You made the right decision, Tom. MINI shouldn’t have been annoyed about it, as you say unprecedented times..
Great to hear your honesty. Was wondering where it went haha.
Like the honest video, nothing wrong with telling it how it is. Look forward to seeing you get another one in the future
Honesty is the best policy! You made the right decision given the circumstances!
Haaaaa good ol Pagliacos on the Wandsworth Bridge Road. Fond memories 😂 11:12
Always looking forward to these videos
❤️💪

Best thing I’ve done. Can leave them without worry now!
Aggressive honesty in this video
would you get a vanquish zagato?
I love your honesty Tom love you for it
Did POG buy it if you after binning his in the garden lol! You did the right thing, it’s your life! 🙌
The Mini GP3 would of been a good investment car tbf
Tom, do you always drive without aircon off ? Your windows are always steamed up on wet days.
Uncertainty is the main reason, and a very very understandable move
This is good Honest JOHN keep it coming fella.
That editing with up side down view is pure chaos!
Too busy flipping the car & not those clips. Oops
Totally sensible decision- and actually, I think the car looks pants regardless XD. Like the rangie though! Quality. Has the older one gone then? Clearly can't keep up

That’s very rich of you that, good work
Was going to say never saw it on your channel only when you got it
These vids just brighten up Mahmood
I honestly wondered why you bought that. Not because of your income and employment status... But because it's a mini.
It's a cool(ish) car but you've got a pretty impressive garage.

I live about 100 miles from Palm Springs. Haha. Don't blame u for selling it. I've had a great 6 months.
Every mini dealership in my state has a mini gp just sitting on the lot they’ve been there for at least two months
You and Archie are curious. I watch many car channels and I’m used to a certain amount of garage changes, but it feels like you guys have new cars every month. How do you two not lose all your money
Refreshing video...a RUclipsr that actually doesn't cry and whine about money and making logical decisions...subbed 👍🏿
Appreciate it
I rate your honesty. Much love
Nice honest Video Lad,is what it is cars come and go The eb and flow of life
The random double bleep in Land Rover and Jags is the car making you aware of speed cameras 👍🏻
Hmmm. Seems to be random. Does my head in anyway
I had an F pace and it would always bleep at the Danes place every day but no speed camera
Makes complete sense mate. Would you ever consider having less cars say 4 really special ones and pushing more content with them. As always love the content... keep it coming
Suppose the question would be would Mini have taken the car back at list ? If not then selling to someone else is fair. Maybe no Christmas card from mini this year.
Real Video.... Appreciate the honesty..... Top Class Video again.....
Very understandable lad given the circumstances. Good vid as always 👍
Loved you spotting an ex richard on Putney Bridge, quality.
What watch is that mate. Is it a Royal Oak?
Really interesting Tom. Don’t feel guilty mate. I dread to think what your monthly outgoings are. You did what you had to. Thank you for sharing 👍

Definitely the right choice Tom. No hate mate. Time for an f40 now you know everything is ok with your income streams
It probably came to singapore there are lots for imported ones for sale here
Very honest lad !! Careful people will think you are a nice chap ............
If you thought that was the right thing to do at the time then it was. The world was falling into uncertainty. If you had cancelled the order it would have been worse for BMW. You are running a business so it has to make viable sense. Keep up the good work 👍
Thank you! Shame they didn’t see it like that
Thank you!
smart choice sir TGE, my opinion would be buy a GP2 for some manual CHAOS hooning around youtube square
