You’re the most likeable and wonderful person!! Quite frankly, I’d watch you review cornflakes!! You’re so thorough and so incredibly knowledgeable!! I think you should arrange a meet and greet because you have fans, you were my best find of 2019, I love you so much!! ❤️
Having recently acquired a 2010 SLK 280, I not only enjoyed your review, but learned a few new things about my car too. Personally, I’m thrilled with mine and the fact that you continue to love yours after long ownership, is inspiring. Great video, thank you.
The first video in a what looks like a great new channel. I posted the comment on alcoholics about your SLK because I have an SLK 350 myself. My SLK is metallic green 2005 with designer wooden interior. I love my SLK and have no intention to sale.
Maybe start out with some cinematic footage of the car. Then go over the exterior first and then the interior after. Before you go for a drive, i think you should provide sound from the exhaust from the outside of the car. I love to watch these types of videos that have same "layout". Make sure to name the basic specs like: Size og engine HP/NM 0-60 0-?? Top speed Weight Otherwise great video, love Aquaholic and i hope Motoholic will be just as good!
Just want we needed love your in-depth tours of boats but now with cars! Can’t wait to see more on here love how you go into every detail my OCD heaven 😂😂 again great work nick!
Good job Nick, you should be very proud of your accomplishment to own a beautiful car like that, and stunningly maintained love your new channel 🏁😎DONT forget about the Superyachts , 😂😂😂😂you are a gentleman I think that’s why you have such a great following keep up the hard work mate 🏁👍🏻
Well Nick I for one didn't see this coming, but it's very welcome and a great review of your lovely slk. Being an early subscriber to the wonderful Aquaholic channel I fully intend to follow and support your exciting new venture. What will be next, 'watchaholic' perhaps? Having noticed on many occasion you fine choice of wristwatch, perhaps my No.1 passion, I reckon you could definately turn your hand to a few watch reviews too! All the best, Pete 👍
I'm thrilled to be here at the beginning of your new channel! I wish you the best of luck with it. When i first started watching you, i knew very little about boats and now i am obsessed. As for cars, when someone asks what kind of car i have, i say a white mercury suv with cute silver patterns on the tail lights. That is literally all i know about it and i have had it for several years. Oh, and the steering wheel is on the left side (i'm in the USA). Can you get me obsessed with cars, too? I doubt it, but i will watch!
Love my cars as I run a business supporting audio and security on all cars and boats so my passion is great in business.... This merc is one of the most attractive Theo did and way ahead of its time behind the scenes as in fibre optics and the can system.... great choice of car and not surprised you’ve kept it 👍🏻
I bought a SLK 200 Auto on 55 plate 2 yrs ago. Love it! Not as many toys as yours but nice to drive, I'd love to open it up more on the motorway but I like having a clean license.
Mein Slk280 hat jetzt ohne Probleme 90.000 km gelaufen. Bezin verbraucht er zwischen 8 und 13 ltr. Der Motor begeistert immer wieder. Tacho 261 GPS 253 km/h
Nick I never thought you would do this. The funny thing is I’ve been waiting for you to do something like this! I bet you will create more great content and keep up the great videos! Cheers!
Hi Nick, love the Aquaholic videos now subscribed to both!! i think we are living the same life, I live in Torquay and own an SLK 280 as well, no boat though so perhaps not. keep up the great work mate!!
The similarities to my wife's GLK 350 is amazing. All the extras stuffed into that little car. I can image how that car can scoot along. The same power plant in the 350 wagon and it will get up and go.
Yaaaay boats and motor cars great stuff. Lovely Merc you have there. One of my favourite ever cars is the Mercedes SL55 AMG, I would love to buy one second hand but when something goes wrong it would cost a fortune to repair so unfortunately it's just a dream right up there with Zozo 😃
I have just bought an SLK 200 and I LOVE IT! I have a 91 MX5 and have also owned a Focus CC, the SLK is a fantastic marriage of the other two cars. The Focus was slightly more refined but without any real "grunt", The MX5 is real seat of the pants driving, plenty of grip and a lovely rasp out of the decat SS pipe, but after a long drive you are broken. The SLK covers both bases! Great "Smile per mile" car.
Great bit of diversification Nick, now I’m not sure if anyone else spotted it but I definitely caught a glimpse of the old DB rucksack, if I’m honest I was expecting to see it tucked under the back stairs, however it was in the boot! I had an SLK for a very short time when I worked for MB back in about 2012. Subscribed👍
Didn't think Nick, you were a fully qualified hairdresser? But a very nice car all the same! Great to see you look over your shoulder before you turned the wheel to the right - sports boat style! Miss the yellow jacket though!
Wow! how fun to be able to film boats and cars. Would you be able to do some videos of English cars that we do not hear much of such as Lotus , TVR and include some historical manufactures like Triumph. I used to have a 65 spitfire and loved it. Thank you.
Nice hairdressers car... (somebody had to say it) 😉 You have another subscriber my friend. On reviews, please include: - All storage (including door pockets, coin trays etc) - Obviously full spec (but that could be in the description) - Personal comfort rating - Comfort of 'other' seating - All the switches & gadgets - Audio of engine, exhaust & in-car entertainment Finally, please include all forms of road transportation, i.e. Cars, Vans, Lorries, Motor Cycles & Mobile homes. Thank you Nick & keep up the excellent work.
Watched just about every yacht/boat review of yours and I'm sure ill be watching each one of these. The only thing I would like to see is the exhaust note from the rear of the car as well as maybe footage of it accelerating past. Oh and the fuse box gotta love the fuse box.
this will be great ,cant wait to see what you got lined up, amazed you not been headhunted yet by tv channels for your amazing presenting skills ,hope to see all kinds of motor vehicles ,campervans they are hot topic ,electric hybrid,small city runners ,give us the running costs with them mpg, road tax cost ,co2 insurance group , it,ll be intresting ,old and new
Excellent review of this car, thanks! I can only suggest adding some sort of test (?) of the brakes, which is a pretty important component of any car as well. Looking forward to the next review!
Love your video ... I'm looking to buy just about the same make and model as you have within a month or two. My wife was reticent until I showed her your video. The neck warmer and the individual climate control got me across the line .... many thanks . Woooope !!
Hope the channel takes off for you. How about M-heilaholics? (Miele). While idk about appliances from them in US they do have some vacuums. Which I guess are considered appliances.. but really mean the range/oven/cooktops, fridge, dishwasher..
Great car nick. I had an SLK 250 diesel with all the usual refinements, before that it was a used CLC 2.2, very nice car and most recently an ML AMG of course none of which I have any more due to mostly owning a 4 year old Grandezza so car less now. My travels from Kent to Southampton are now done in a Nissan cash of which my wife has 🥺🥺🥺🥺 but heyo. If I go to my boat alone I go in my reasonable vivaro van. Lucky me eh!
I absolutely love your boat reviews and think you're one of the best with those. But to be absolutely honest, there already are a lot of car reviewing channels which have been doing that for years. So for now i'd say: stick with the boats. But probably you'll eventually prove me wrong and absolutely own the car reviewing as well.
BUT if you'll be reviewing some lovely (classic) cars which aren't shown on the regular channels, i'd definitly love to watch. And excuse me for my English, it's not my mother tongue.
MOTAHOLIC Hi Nick, great video and I’m sure you’ll find many interesting cars dotted around Devon. It’s just knowing where to find them! I’m hoping to be the new owner of a Mercedes R129 Sl500 final face lift edition soon. Not many reviewed over here in the UK. If you want to then drop me a message and I’m sure you’d do a stellar video on it. Already have a Porsche 981 Boxster S, BMW 640d GC and a Toyota Land Cruiser if you wanted either of those for a video as well. Feel free to DM me on YBW forum - Somerset Jim. If not we may see you out on the water - our boat is based in Dartmouth and called Sea Esta 🙂
Yes those red seat belts are identical to a MG Metro, I had a black one of those in the early 90s. Now I drive a 10 year old Mercedes which is not an SLK, but if I did not need rear seats I’d be tempted by one of these. I have a 2 seater car for fun, but that’s a Smart car so different league altogether.

Came across this by accident Nick! Usually more at home watching you on Aquaholic but I’ve been gorging on vids about SLK’s as I’m collecting a 2006,2 owner from new, SLK 350 tomorrow and I can’t wait! Have subscribed as I enjoyed this as much as the watery ones😂 nice one!👍👏👏👏👏
You are brilliant, agree you could review anything and make it charming and interesting, so refreshingly genteel compared to so many hectic and intense reviewers. I look forward to your videos as an oasis of calm and British charm each day as an expat. You have many cool watches and should do a watchaholic as well, lots of people would love that. I will go an make a marmite and cheese sandwich now and imagine I am on Smugglers blues watches the world drift by and chatting to you. Maybe you could do a Sandwichoholic as well so we can learn more about your onboard cuisine😀
Thank you. I Also have got convertibles since 1997. Twingo (!), mgf 120, slk 3.2 l and mazda mx5, nb, 140 and now NC 160 rhd. . I'd like to buy a 280. , I forgot the 206 cc, 110 hp.
Subscriber 309. You actually had 298 subs when I started watching the video, but by the end of the video you had picked up another 10. Hopefully you will get 10 subs every 14 minutes and then you will be well on your way to match Aquaholic. Seriously though, nice review of the car. Will you just be reviewing the cars, or will you also be looking at repairs and maintenance? Either way, I wish you the best of British with your new channel Sir.
That’s a great suggestion, there are some great people that watch, but some people are not so nice, now that doesn’t mean that could be information they could use but best not to have that information out there some things are private mate and we certainly want the best for you only 👍🏻🏁😎
@@MOTAHOLIC Jeff Wells explained it rather well. There are unscrupulous people out there, and while you are a public figure online, your privacy in your private life should be protected.
You didn't show us the crew cabin.
Lmao!
Where's the captain sleeping?
He did! It’s called “the trunk” in car language.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
You’re the most likeable and wonderful person!! Quite frankly, I’d watch you review cornflakes!! You’re so thorough and so incredibly knowledgeable!! I think you should arrange a meet and greet because you have fans, you were my best find of 2019, I love you so much!! ❤️
You'e very kind! :)
Cerealholic ? 😆 be up for that 😉
@@simongood9460 Corn flakes and beer?
Maybe some M-heila (Miele) reviews. LOL
Again Dan from Kentucky says HI 👊
Excellent comment is really funny...
What an enjoyable car review. You come across very likeable and very easy to watch. No ego, no showing off. Just a nice plain car review. Excellent!!
Much appreciated!
Love it! Next up Aeroholic! Love the car!
Having recently acquired a 2010 SLK 280, I not only enjoyed your review, but learned a few new things about my car too. Personally, I’m thrilled with mine and the fact that you continue to love yours after long ownership, is inspiring. Great video, thank you.
It's a genuinely brilliant car and I still miss it! I hope you enjoy yours as much.
The first video in a what looks like a great new channel. I posted the comment on alcoholics about your SLK because I have an SLK 350 myself. My SLK is metallic green 2005 with designer wooden interior. I love my SLK and have no intention to sale.
Maybe start out with some cinematic footage of the car. Then go over the exterior first and then the interior after. Before you go for a drive, i think you should provide sound from the exhaust from the outside of the car. I love to watch these types of videos that have same "layout".
Make sure to name the basic specs like:
Size og engine
HP/NM
0-60
0-??
Top speed
Weight
Otherwise great video, love Aquaholic and i hope Motoholic will be just as good!
Excellent review, maybe you could mention mpg and service or repair costs over the time you have owned the vehicle.
My same passions, boats and cars! And I black Mercedes is what I’ve had for 10 years now. Just got the new e400 coupe!
Nice!
You could review dishwashers and we'd probably still be interested
Miele only!
I like that front end a lot and you’ve obviously taken great care of her
You gotta love seeing some one, 8 years later still excited to get in and drive his car. Thinking of getting my own slk 280 here soon
Go for it - great car!
Just want we needed love your in-depth tours of boats but now with cars! Can’t wait to see more on here love how you go into every detail my OCD heaven 😂😂 again great work nick!
Wonderful! Great idea combining the two channels! I’m doing the same - organ music for “work” channel and old cars for “hobby” channel. All good fun!
Thank you sir-enjoyed the review. Best wishes.
I’m looking at purchasing a SL350 and found this to be a honest genuine review, well done
Glad I could help. Hope you enjoy it!
Good job Nick, you should be very proud of your accomplishment to own a beautiful car like that, and stunningly maintained love your new channel 🏁😎DONT forget about the Superyachts , 😂😂😂😂you are a gentleman I think that’s why you have such a great following keep up the hard work mate 🏁👍🏻
not been following you that long but love your contents (boats, yachts, motorhomes, now cars).....helps when you're genuine guy........yay!
I appreciate that!
Well Nick I for one didn't see this coming, but it's very welcome and a great review of your lovely slk.

Good to have you along Pete! 🙂
Good luck with your new channel 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 in my opinion the best looking SLK series, very cool number plate 😎
I was sceptical about this new channel but the truth is I’ll watch you review anything Nick and I’ll enjoy every second of it haha!
Like it. Just like your boat vids shows the detail and always informative 😀
Great review, Nick. Looking forward to the next video!
Love this new channel! Can't wait to see what's next 🙏✌
Wonderful video as always, friend. Excited to subscribe and await more.
I'm thrilled to be here at the beginning of your new channel! I wish you the best of luck with it. When i first started watching you, i knew very little about boats and now i am obsessed.

That is literally all i know about it and i have had it for several years. Oh, and the steering wheel is on the left side (i'm in the USA). Can you get me obsessed with cars, too?

I bought a SLK 200 Auto on 55 plate 2 yrs ago. Love it! Not as many toys as yours but nice to drive, I'd love to open it up more on the motorway but I like having a clean license.
My previous (silver) SLK was a 200, it went really well I thought!
The 200 certainly not under powered, I dread to think what the 2.5 litre & above are like.

They're a great car! :)

You are amazing.
I’d watch you review a garbage bag if you did one.
Also love your collection of watches.
Keep up the good work
Finally I was wondering what car you were driving after the somewhat office your and seeing the in production yacht.
Cool mate. Can't wait to see what you'll bring us next!
Hi Nick, love the Aquaholic videos now subscribed to both!! i think we are living the same life, I live in Torquay and own an SLK 280 as well, no boat though so perhaps not. keep up the great work mate!!
Living the dream! :D There are a few SLKs about, great car for the English Riviera.
Good luck with new venture!

I always fancied one of these for the summer months. I will enjoy watching Motaholic, already addicted to Aquaholic. Great car Nick.
Glad you enjoy it!
Nice one Nick.. and nice car. Good luck .

Great for your 1st car video 😉👍

I love your vids
Schmee150 move over, Motaholic is coming!
edit: Oh, and subscribed of course ;-)
Wow! how fun to be able to film boats and cars. Would you be able to do some videos of English cars that we do not hear much of such as Lotus , TVR and include some historical manufactures like Triumph. I used to have a 65 spitfire and loved it. Thank you.

Surely you mean "All the quirks and features."
Watched just about every yacht/boat review of yours and I'm sure ill be watching each one of these. The only thing I would like to see is the exhaust note from the rear of the car as well as maybe footage of it accelerating past. Oh and the fuse box gotta love the fuse box.

Very enjoyable. And for those of us of a certain age, nice reference to the MG Maestro :-)
Nice work, Nick. Good luck with the new channel. I’m now wondering if “obsidian black” will become the new “Miele”. 😂
That crossed my mind! :D
Excellent review of this car, thanks! I can only suggest adding some sort of test (?) of the brakes, which is a pretty important component of any car as well. Looking forward to the next review!
This is one of the best car reviews I’ve seen! Proper lad

Agreed!
I jokingly asked for a tour of the Merc on your Princess factory tour video, and you did not disappoint sir. Cheers!
I made this entire channel for you! 😉
Let’s see you talk your way into a McLaren press car next. Also, thoughts on the Yanmar X47 would be interesting to hear

Came across this by accident Nick!
Usually more at home watching you on Aquaholic but I’ve been gorging on vids about SLK’s as I’m collecting a 2006,2 owner from new, SLK 350 tomorrow and I can’t wait!
Have subscribed as I enjoyed this as much as the watery ones😂 nice one!👍👏👏👏👏
Awesome! I loved my SLK, I kept it longer than any other car I've owned. Enjoy it. 🙂
Great video! Have you considered looking at any RVs or Motorhomes? Would be reminiscent of your aquaholic videos
That’s a great idea!
I was not prepared for 2004 Nick 😍
Nice content
Keep going on
You are brilliant, agree you could review anything and make it charming and interesting, so refreshingly genteel compared to so many hectic and intense reviewers. I look forward to your videos as an oasis of calm and British charm each day as an expat. You have many cool watches and should do a watchaholic as well, lots of people would love that. I will go an make a marmite and cheese sandwich now and imagine I am on Smugglers blues watches the world drift by and chatting to you. Maybe you could do a Sandwichoholic as well so we can learn more about your onboard cuisine😀
Haha, I'll think about it! :)
Awesome! Please continue to do Motaholic!
Loving Aquaholic, Loving Motaholic!
Well, aren't you a busy man. :) Nice car!
Very cool!
Oh and now that you have two GoPros you should put one up like a dashcam and film where you're going too.
That was quite smooth
Thank you. I Also have got convertibles since 1997.
Twingo (!), mgf 120, slk 3.2 l and mazda mx5, nb, 140 and now NC 160 rhd. .
I'd like to buy a 280. ,
I forgot the 206 cc, 110 hp.
Good one.
No Miele white goods though...
Great first vid 👍
Watch out Doug Demuro!
Lol :) another Doug fan, from his early early days 3+ years ago.
Animexstudio 123 i don’t like doug, but carwow is the deal😎
thank you for posting!
Thank you for watching! :)
Gr8 car and review..
SLK also my car, convertibles for ever!! :)
Love the car
Love Merc’s 😁
Love Aquaholic
What car will be next??
Subscriber 309.
You actually had 298 subs when I started watching the video, but by the end of the video you had picked up another 10.
Hopefully you will get 10 subs every 14 minutes and then you will be well on your way to match Aquaholic.
Seriously though, nice review of the car.
Will you just be reviewing the cars, or will you also be looking at repairs and maintenance?
Either way, I wish you the best of British with your new channel Sir.
Not sure yet, I'll see how it develops :)
great car, good luck hope this becomes as successful as 'aquaholic'.
Nick, you should blur out your license plate mate. Otherwise, great review
Why so?
That’s a great suggestion, there are some great people that watch, but some people are not so nice, now that doesn’t mean that could be information they could use but best not to have that information out there some things are private mate and we certainly want the best for you only 👍🏻🏁😎
@@MOTAHOLIC Jeff Wells explained it rather well. There are unscrupulous people out there, and while you are a public figure online, your privacy in your private life should be protected.
Maybe get a stick on plate, that says 'Motaholic' on it, for the walkaround shots?!
