I remember how triggered the other 3 got when the Stig wrote his book. They were on mega bucks and slagging the Stig off for his side-hustle. Pathetic. I reckon the Stig would have been better than Richard as a presenter and had less crashes...
So if he did top gear now people would watch it like they used to ? Sure they would 😂 last one I watched was with Chris evans 10 mins in thought not for me never watched it again never missed an episode with the original or grand tour although that took a while to get used to 😂
He's Great and he would've been a Great Addition but don't play with those 3 Top Tier Car Presenters that ain no Joke he did a Great Job and is doing a Great Job here as well but not those 3 smh
This is not the Nordschleife. And May only dislikes it because it is used as the benchmark by all automakers, to which they tune their sports/super/duper/hyper cars. Any other track and he would hate that - he is Mista Slowly after all...😅
Really enjoyed this and almost felt as though we saw a new side of Ben. Really entertaining to watch and we all know his driving skills are up there with the best. Would love to see more of him 👍👍
Wow, Ben's delivery and the cinematography were insane. Also, the fact that you could incorporate the DT M5, very poetic story-telling. More people need to see this!
At this moment, STIG is the most serious of the former trio (well, in that case - quattro) and his driving impressions are probably the most noteworthy of the whole tr.. quattro for anyone interested not so much in the personality - but in the car actually being reviewed. Well done, greetings from Latvia. I might have misspelled the italian word for "four".
That car just became even more interesting now that Bens reviewed it. I wish I could drive like this man, it would be more enjoyable to own a car like the M3 if you have the skills to drive it fast.
Once again, Ben does a great job at driving and conveying his experience. Really impressive production quality too, felt like a Top Gear / Grand Tour film.
The Stig's car tests, Hammond and or May driving or building something while telling a story, that's all this channel needs really. 👍 I wonder if Ben ever bought that Delta he wanted from the last video.
As one of those people who fell in love with the E9X, C63, and Audi RS4 based on the Top Gear vid pitting them against one another, this was epic to watch!!! More of The Stig please!!!
I wonder if Drivetribe ever realizes what a gem they still have at their hands and starts using its sparkle to lift this channel to another level. If the old guys cant be bothered anymore to regularly do these "Top Gear" things, let Ben do it! Now, I dont know how expensive it would be to get interesting cars to test drive them (doesnt have to be on a race track - speaking of which, what happened to the plans to secure a track for Drivetribe?), but this is the type of content many if not most subscribers want to see. But one day some show will hire Ben and thats when the jewel will be gone...
I think the G80/G82's driving dynamics are great, but the only way on the which I could forget about that face is by having those dynamics in the greatness of an M3 Touring ❤️ (If I could buy one I would still look for a better front body kit but yeah!)
Really nice video! And the product value in the intro, spot on! Great to see Ben back and doing reviews. If he is up for it, he could very well become a regular. His on screen persona is nice to listen to and is just about perfectly balanced between humorous and factual.
I know it said paid promotion but I almost forgot that it was an ad, not that I’m complaining. No lies we’re told and we got to see Wolfgang drive off towards the horizon. The lack of any kind of criticism was distracting which was why I remembered.
Ben has certainly found his calling. Brilliant educated review. Was waiting for Jeremy to have his input at the end like he did in the old Top Gear reviews.
Some say he's not the Stig anymore....and that an imposter has taken his place. All we know is, he's THE Ben Collins. Great to see him back on the channel.
Amazing car, we saw you on the show and Jamie Oliver was the star, first show after Christmas and it snowed in the night so i thought it would be cancelled, but by the time they started filming it was just very wet, we were the first people to see Hammond accident in the jet car before the show went out on Sunday night, what a day and what memories, iv just got my new 340i tourer and love it, maybe one day i might be able to afford the m3 tourer 🙏, i used to race karts with lewis, do you do track instructing as i would love you to teach me, you were the best STIG WELL DONE 👏
Gotta say "Stig" has got that Tiff Needell vibes going. Very critical and precise delivery of how the vehicle drives and he can drive it well too.
I agree .
Top gear should get ben, chris and Johny Smith and id be watching again oh yeah tiff as the stig....
Or must make us think its tiff.
Exactly what I’d want from two former racing drivers
I agree
Stig is much better thsn Tiff.
Comparing Ben to Tiff is a serious insult to the man, he displays none of the Tiff arrogance.
Please do more of these car reviews with the stig realy enjoying to watch
No wonder they made him keep that helmet on all those years.. worried he'd present better than they do
Makes one wonder how the dynamic of 4 presenters would have turned out if he joined the team 🤔

Ha.
when the Stig says "its easy to drive", it makes me think twice
Can the Stig speak?
@@Jonsson474 The Stig speaks a language unknown to mankind and sometimes communicate by making clicking and beeping noises
@@bradwhite5884 I have long suspected the Stig to be a dolphin.
New M cars are very easy to drive
Bens just a natural star, superb presentation and entertaining throughout
Agreed. Also a fan of Wolfgang :D
The Stig has a very nice style of drift. It's very clean and smooth.
decades of experience and a lot of natural talent.
Ben’s an absolute natural to presenting, deserves his own tv show
Ah the Nürburgring. Should have asked James May if he wanted to come along. He LOVES that place! 😂
I thought he was wearing the Wolfgang dress.
this is the GP track though, not the part from the 1920s which james loves so dearly
This is not the Nordschleife.
And May only dislikes it because it is used as the benchmark by all automakers, to which they tune their sports/super/duper/hyper cars. Any other track and he would hate that - he is Mista Slowly after all...😅
@@Ganiscol Captain slow...🤣🤣🤣
Haven't seen many videos of Ben Collins as Ben Collins but I quite like his presentation style. Hope to see more of this!
check out his you-tube its great and criminally under subscribed. like seriously the production values are amazing and Ben is great to watch.
@@dr2165 Ben Collins Drives channel ?
@@dr2165 he was also on fifth gear for a while
Really enjoyed this and almost felt as though we saw a new side of Ben. Really entertaining to watch and we all know his driving skills are up there with the best. Would love to see more of him 👍👍
Jesus the editing and transitions in that intro were beautiful.
Man how I love that the stig lives on

ill probably speak for everyone if i say "we want more of these Videos". Great work by the Video creator/editor and the "stig". Great Video
Outstanding presenter; I could listen to The Stig review cars all day.
A lovely video, thanks Ben and the team who brought this beautiful gem of a video, hope to see more tbh
Fantastic car. Always great to see Stig again on Drivetribe. 'Some say, he eats spaghetti with needle nose pliers.'
Ben Collins is an excellent presenter. This also has excellent cinematography, absolutely top notch for a TH-cam production. Great work, team.
That car just became even more interesting now that Bens reviewed it. I wish I could drive like this man, it would be more enjoyable to own a car like the M3 if you have the skills to drive it fast.

The Stig is backkkk 🤘
The Stig's car tests, Hammond and or May driving or building something while telling a story, that's all this channel needs really. 👍 I wonder if Ben ever bought that Delta he wanted from the last video.
This is awesome! But is it as awesome as our lap(s) in the E61 over the Nordschleife? Hoping to find out soon! :D
Oh boy
Ben Collins needs to be a regular member of the crew! Amazing in every aspect.
That was awesome. Great to see Stig here.
The stig still got it
Nice to see Ben again. More please.
That b-roll montage at the beginning was so beautifully slick.
I cannot miss any of videos with Ben, because unlike most journalists who push only on straights, he pushes the car in the corners. Proper testing.
Such a Legend! The ole stig still entertains & makes it look so easy.
M3 Touring is a masterpiece
I agree with the Stig!
BMW smashed it out the park with this new M3 estate!
Really enjoy watching the Stig “reviewing” a car!!Huge Congratulations!!!!!!!!
Ben is so composed and gentlemanly, his driving makes up for it ;)
The True Stig…what a guy
As one of those people who fell in love with the E9X, C63, and Audi RS4 based on the Top Gear vid pitting them against one another, this was epic to watch!!! More of The Stig please!!!
BEAUTIFUL wagon!!!
Nothing cooler than a wagon drifting around!!
I wonder if Drivetribe ever realizes what a gem they still have at their hands and starts using its sparkle to lift this channel to another level.

The Ben (aka some say he is the Stig) is awesome, more please
This feels like a top gear or grand tour car review. Really well done
I think the G80/G82's driving dynamics are great, but the only way on the which I could forget about that face is by having those dynamics in the greatness of an M3 Touring ❤️ (If I could buy one I would still look for a better front body kit but yeah!)
Great to see Ben!
That was superb. Ben is brilliant and what a thing that car is.
You did what it said on the Packet.. Brilliant 🙂
Best video top gear has present online ever ... hands down more of this!!
The Stig,yes thank you.
Excellent video, bravo!!
Great to see Ben Collins presenting and great car, location, accomplice (Wolfgang) and humour to boot!
Yeh, he's not stuffy at all
@@sianwarwick633 you mean Wolfgang? 😅
fire transitions, and a truly awesome video
Wow, this is a fantastic video. Great insight, lots of detail, and Ben makes it still really approachable.
You guys are making amazing videos lately. Love Ben!
What a fantastic video, the Stig has gotta be the best addition to the DRIVETRIBE channel!
Really nice video! And the product value in the intro, spot on! Great to see Ben back and doing reviews. If he is up for it, he could very well become a regular. His on screen persona is nice to listen to and is just about perfectly balanced between humorous and factual.
I know it said paid promotion but I almost forgot that it was an ad, not that I’m complaining. No lies we’re told and we got to see Wolfgang drive off towards the horizon. The lack of any kind of criticism was distracting which was why I remembered.
It's always great to see Ben behind the wheel
More Stig and Wolfgang please. One bark for yes and two for no
The cinematography and just general presentation was beautiful. This is peak TH-cam! :)
Ben has certainly found his calling. Brilliant educated review.
Was waiting for Jeremy to have his input at the end like he did in the old Top Gear reviews.
Great video. Please keep doing these. I would rather watch him than any of the TG hosts post. Classic era.
« Some things just don’t change with BMWs » ❤
Kudos to drivetribe for bringing up such gem like people out of their caves. May you grow bigger and bigger !
Some say he's not the Stig anymore....and that an imposter has taken his place. All we know is, he's THE Ben Collins.
Great to see him back on the channel.
Oh yes, Mr Collins. The successor we don't deserve! More reviews please!!
Can we get a behind the scenes video as well? The production quality is on another level. The intro shots are insane!
It would love another go around the Ring. Go Ben - Stig. Keep it coming, please.
Absolutely awesome the soundtrack from a pure m motor nothing beats this
Now that's what I'd call a proper SUV
Please get Ben doing more reviews like this!
Keap them coming love these vidoe.s
awesome when ben shows up 👍👍
I can definitely watch this man review cars like this.
This was really well done. Would like to see more Ben Collins on the channel.

Your still the Man STIG 👍👍👍
Ben, and Randy Pobst are the best at these car reviews. Accept no others 🙂
The apple test at the end was genius 😍well done sir!
Excellent review Ben. Great to see bmw making M tourings again.
More of 'the stig' reviewing some awesome cars please!!!
This was the man to carry on with Top Gear
Brilliant video showing some really skillful driving in what will become a motoring icon.
This was just excellent all around.
The man is a legend 😎
Fantastic review Stig. Some things should never change.
The biggest shame, is that he had to remain silent for so many years. Amazing presentation/ detail/ information/ etc.
He's the Stig and always will be
I glad to see that the stig's personality is fully released.
Its litteraly the perfect car
This guy is awesome as a presenter. And I can trust his assessment since he is a racer. More please.
Absolutely phenomenal!!
*It was once said the Stig started driving at just six months old* 🤣
Great job Stig! Thanks from Israel!
Wonderful car control skills especially when he put it into Clarkson mode
Thumbs up from a German!😊
Ben is always a favorite 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very much an old school top gear review. Very nice
Brilliant 👏 what an amazing driver Ben is. A fantastic film
Fantastic. Can’t wait to get mine!
Wow stig is an awesome car reviewer!! hope to see more
Pity you weren't allowed to speak back then, you are fantastic mate, pure class, stig ftw.
