You put your argument forward and you may well have a point. Continually reiterating it and arguing with anyone that dares take an alternative point of view isn’t adding to the discussion.
The thing is, the vast majority of posters enjoy Mats work based on its entertainment value and not its legal compliance.
Anyway, you carry on fighting the good fight.
I don't even know why he cares / wants to discuss it. What an odd little man.

Jealousy is a cruel mistress would be my take.

BOB, you're clearly on a one man crusade here.
If you're really that concerned about it being illegal or incorrect then be the good boy that you are and report it to the relevant authority, Im sure they'll be glad of it.
Then you won't have any need to keep banging on about it like a stuck record.
You've made your point many times, we get it, you think something is wrong.
So as above, report and feel good in yourself or just move on, you are one of those who make this forum an unenjoyable read.
Your doom and gloom isn't welcome or interesting to anyone.
No doubt you will rubbish my post, go for it you miserable tt

Beautifully succinct. Nail on head. People here enjoy his videos and are not interested in crying about rules he may or may not have breached.

And guess who ends up holding the can if/when it goes ties up?
The advisor's Professional Indemnity insurance.
If (a) they have it and (b) they've abided by the terms.

Another two very big assumptions to add to those made by the posters on this thread.
It seems that the assumptions of others are dismissable, but yours aren't. Am I getting this right?

Has Mat done anything illegal?? Yes or no? If yes then report to the authorities

I was glad I found this thread as I’d just found his channel. Now I’m not so sure. If those criticising his raffle and think it’s legally wrong then report it to the proper authorities.

Again, so no criticism allowed unless you go legal?

And people say I'm repeating myself!

Just another way of saying: "No criticism allowed in this discussion thread".

Yes, just watch the clique gather to defend their little echo chamber...

I've never said that any assumptions that I make are off limits to criticism?

As it happens, I agree with what he's saying, but it only needed to be said once. Mat could have read it and taken note, or ignored it.

cliques, Rogan quotes, snowflakes, gatekeeping, echo chambers. My bingo card is nearly full.

No, you haven't (and that wasn't a question, by the way), but you dismiss everyone else's assumptions as baseless.

You've not been here long, and hopefully you'll remain here for long enough to learn that sometimes, whether or not you're in the right, it's best just to walk away for a while and let things rest.

It's fine to have opinions and, who knows, genuine insight, but sometimes you'll find that nobody wants to hear them anymore.

Take it from one who knows. I didn't choose this username, you know. frown

Is Sunday afternoon children's time on PH?

Either that or some are catching up on their alcohol units before the week begins.

Hopefully this thread can now move back to what we love, car videos!

I enjoyed the house one too by the way and look forward to seeing more.

Thank goodness! As a side note, do mods have a way to check new members agains those previously banned? whistle

Back on topic, the front end of the BMW’s sort of nearly growing on me but still seems a little pig nosed. It’s definitely an improvement, but would like to see someone do one where the kidneys aren’t so long.

Same here, the front is growing on me as well. I didn’t like the yellow lights at first but the whole rebuild really grew on me. I’m just not a fan of the noise it makes. If it had a B58 or S63 that would be the dream, but we all know that won’t be the case

To be fair, some of us don't even know what that means
