Any links to the wine company? think we should give them some trade
@@jaxonford9399 good idea :)
the van would be nice to have I'm walking back and forth to work everyday but I live in America so that would probably not be a good idea
I'm a homeless person in Hammersmith that van would be very helpful to me to try to have the same luck that he had to get my life together much appreciated Rico
You do the best advert reels!
This has been the best experience of my life. Huge thanks to Alex and the cars under £3000 guys and huge thanks for everyone's support. Big love #benicepayitforward
Much love Michael xxx
glad to see your back on your feet, your looking good mate. Keep it up man your a real inspiration.
Nice car mate 🤙
Well done Michael I'm so happy for you. I posted above that no one is immune. We're all a few pay cheques away from being on hard times.
From Ireland, I wish you nothing but the best my man. Hope Destiny goes to a good home ❤️
@@bigduphusaj162 first time I've called out a prick on TH-cam. Congrats 👏
Pete and the guys at Cars under £3000 are absolute legends. It’s all so wholesome it’s almost hard to believe it’s real.
These things do happen. Those of us who have received help, well, we never forget, and I am now able to pay forward...
Hats off to whoever does carsunder3000's marketing. There's simply no better way for a firm to advertise itself than by being genuinely lovely and caring people. I'll be eyeing them up for my next car purchase, so whoever dreamed up this fantastic collaboration has earned their salt.
A LOT of companies could learn some very valuable lessons from you all.
It's crazy that it's such an underutilised method of marketing. They're paying around 3k for thousands of positive impressions for their brand. No one in their right mind will see this video and think "Yeah nah carsunder3k don't seem genuine."
@@Kai-vd9wn I'm not from the UK but if i was it'd be highly likely that i would pay carsunder3k a visit of i needed another car.
totally agreed! this kind of marketing is better than any radio or print or website ad you could push! simply showing that "we're nice guys" is 1000x better than all of that combined. i bet those guys get a lot of business now because people know that they aren't crappy "use car salesmen" in the cliche sense of american "im going to scam you" sorts that often hurt used car lots. well done to the lads at 3000 pounds, bunch of good folks there.
Alex didn't give a hand out...he provided a hand UP, I love how this has helped Michael get a permanent roof over his head and life going the right way. Well done folks!
So happy to see how things turned out for him. Such a humble guy. Incredible work from you and the guys at Cars under 3000.
Impressive how much can change over 2 months. That really was and still is a life change!
Sometimes you just need a hand to get things going
@@CristianDuartes nah a brain to get them thinks 😂 but fr I agree not everyone makes horrible decisions sometimes life takes big dumpers need a hand to wipe ya know?
In the grand scheme of things this was a small nudge in the right way, but it turned around Michaels life and made all the difference for him. He's clearly 'reborn'. And ya'll set a very positive example too, including the companies paying it forward locally ! This is how you build sustainable communities, power to you all team 💪
Fantastic! I was hoping to hear how he was doing some day! This was sooner and better than expected. Congratulations Michael!
Well worth checking out Michaels channel. Full story of what happened to him on there
@@bigduphusaj162 what have Alex or I done to offend you so deeply? The amount of poisonous replies you've made is bordering obsessive
What a legend Pete Brissenden is for giving Michael a job 👍 I think it’s time to sample some of his wine 😀
Hope we get to see more of this guy. Such a genuinely lovely bloke and given that, to think about the way he was treated... just horrible. Not sure how handy Michael is on a computer (or even how interested he is) but if he ever wants some free training on anything at all, please let me know how to pass on my details. If I can't train him on it, I'll know someone who will be willing to do it FOC. I'm mostly general use, Outlook etc but a massive Excel geek. If Mike wants help designing something to manage his finances for example, I can help put something easy to use together for him to track all of those monthly out-goings he'll start having again. For example we could set something up with expenditures and dates next to them, monthly, which will show his pay, all of his out-goings, and then at any time he can go in, type how much is left in his account and it will automatically calculate which direct debits will have left his account, highlight any still to be paid, and show how much he has left for the month, per week or even per day as disposable income. Fantastic work Alex, what a great thing to make such a big difference to such a lovely guys life.
he has a youtube channel try and contact him :)
@@reggiexp69 what is it? Thanks
@@Alex-iq5bi look top comment
Micheal cordes i think
There’s plenty of negative usage of the internet etc, but this sort of stuff is where it demonstrates it’s positive power. Putting people into contact that would never have met, telling stories that we would otherwise ignore or not know existed. We’ll done Alex for using your status as (like it or not) an influencer to make positive change. 👍👏
This is the sort of content that should be on the news restoring peoples faith in humanity. Completely selfless act to help someone in need. This is truly inspirational! Keep up the amazing work
I am so proud of Michael the things he has been through and what he’s achieved are brilliant. Alex… you are such a great person for getting this sorted out for him we need more people like you in the world.And lastly big thanks to the guys at Carsunder3000 for the car donations you are absolutely brilliant people, Keep up the good work guys !
@@bigduphusaj162 did you mean to put a different emoji?
@@bigduphusaj162 well what did the emoji mean then ?
@@bigduphusaj162 what for ?
@@bigduphusaj162 are you dumb ? Sometimes being a man means you are kind to people but clearly you think men have to be strong and have no feelings!
@@bigduphusaj162 just don't watch the video if you're not interested simple as that.
Best thing you’ve done is branch out on your own and started this journey. What an awesome channel. Massive respect Alex ❤️
Seeing how you have helped this man actually got me emotional, the world needs more like this and also kind hearted people like Alex and the car dealer for their donation
"The aiconditioning works" That's better than my car!
Happy to hear that he's managed to turn his life around, wish him all the best.
I'm so glad Micheal is back on his feet ,he seems like a top bloke !
Micheals boss seem like a proper legend too .
They always say you are only a paycheck away from being homeless in some cases so it can literally happen to anyone .
The guys at cars under 3000 are legends and last of all thanks to Alex for putting this all together
Considering all the sh!t going on in the world, things like this really raise your faith in people. Great work to all involved.
Well done Alex, you are the milk of human kindness to have done what you have for Michael. Thanks also to "Cars Under £3000" for their kind contribution of the van. Alex you have restored my faith in humanity with your generosity and heartfelt kindness, wishing you all the very best that life can give you.
Never been more proud of someone Iv never met. He has changed his life so much and it’s really inspirational
More tears in my eyes. Wow! That's a huge change in a really nice guy's life. The van, the flat, the job, the Big John. Alex and guys from Cars Under 3000 you're legends and simply the best ♥️
Amazing how life took a sharp turn for Michael! God bless him and everyone involved in this. It's truly wholesome!
So nice to see how happy Michael is now.
Nearly had me in tears.
Alex and cars under 3000 deserve maximum respect.😍🙌
Alex, you’re such a fucking legend bro 👊🏻 Fair play to you! Glad you’re doing well Michael. Carsunder3000 coming through with yet another good deed, hats off to you guys…. Top blokes the lot of ya 💯
Well done boys! Sitting here in Canada, watching this with huge respect, and a few tears!
Cheers,
Rick
@@bigduphusaj162 get help ffs ya freak
@@bigduphusaj162 When did I ask? Swivel on it
@@bigduphusaj162 you have a good day buddy, sounds like you’re a bit of a mess, can’t judge mental health issues, opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.
Impressive how quickly he has been able to sort his life out. Again an awesome video.
I think we can be very happy Alex started this channel. I am sure he is.
This is the difference between 'using your platform to help someone' and 'using helping someone for your platform'. It's so nice to see how at the heart of this content is Micheal and it's focused on what he needs first and the content second.
It took me a while to figure this out as I find so many 'helping' the homeless' youtube videos feel exploitative. This wasn't that and your motivations behind it shine through. Well done :)
Such a WONDERFUL story! Can you imagine what a difference we could make in this world if we allll acted out of kindness & compassion towards one another?? We live in such excess (really, if you think about how much "extra" stuff we accumulate over time). Instead of owning a coat for every outfit, spend that money on coats for those who don't have one. Same w/ all the things we buy that only serve a superficial purpose. I'd rather spend money buying clothes for school children in need than to go buy an expensive handbag. These are tiny examples w/major impact. There'd be no homeless if we alllll gave a little more 💗💗💗
such a nice gesture, you've helped him beyond measure, just wow - both such down to earth guys - amazing stuff!!
So glad to see him doing well makes me so happy!
Get rthsn to do a camper build in the back out of wood to keep it along the lines of budget but always looks good.
Keep up the amazing work guys
One email changed that man's life forever. What a story. ❤️ And so good that destiny is going to help someone else now. Guys this can be the start of something big. If I had the recourses I'd help everyone get off the streets. I've been so close myself , I spent years as a depressed, crack addict, with no purpose in life. It warms my heart to see things like this.
4.41 in Alex I'll be honest I thought were having a stroke 😮 other than that what an absolute diamond geezer you, Michael, his boss Pete and cars under 3000 are, all of you are just priceless, LOVING the channel, proper job and Old out ya and ♥️
Amazing to see Michael having somewhere safe to stay and a home over his head and hope and pray thing only go better for him. God bless ❤️❤️🙏🏾Again thank you Alex and other like you who are willing to help people like Michael. ❤️
I'm so happy things turned out for better for this guy. and I hope everything is better as well for you Alex, you have a good heart. cheers from Brazil
Man Michael must be so overwhelmed with all the love and support he’s been given. Cars under 3000 are amazing, his new boss is a hero and Alex is a legend!
Great stuff fellas, love what you've done for Michael. With all the bad things going on in the world atm it's heartwarming to see you all getting together to help him get back on his feet. All the best Michael 👍
As a 27 year old lad living in an old corsa, can I swap my corsa for the van?😂
You serious bro?
Hope Alex sees this! Best of luck mate.
Bump bump. Look here @autoalex
👍
Pushed that like, hope he sees it, also hope life improves regardless
What a developement! Been eyeing with these mondeos myself not too long ago, but couldnt find a proper one here. That car looks so nice ^^ hope Michael has plenty of good time with it!
This is the content that TH-cam, and the world as a whole needs - great people doing amazing things for even better people! Well done Alex and Cars Under 3000
Alex from the USA I have to say videos like these are great to watch and I can't wait to see the van go to someone in need, Oh and you changed that man's life forever we need more people like you and car's under 3000 keep up the good work. Bless you guys
Really happy to see that guy doing well. Congrats to job and flat! A little bit of kindness takes you a long way! Keep up the good work
Loving the channel Alex. So pleased he's on his feet again. None of this would of happened without you and your team.
There is a homeless guy who is trying to get back to his feet in our area. The van may be perfect for him to give that jump start. StreetLink and other organizations are already trying to help. We are giving him odd jobs around our place to help too.
Well done to each and everyone of you for helping Michael. It is SO refreshing to see people like all of you contribute to changing someone's life for the better. Absolutely brilliant 👍👍
Awesome stuff. Love the fact you make things happen, Alex. You're a first class human being. Really inspiring
I love Michael, such a great bloke and really chuffed for him. Well done Alex and Pete!
Alex what’s funny is you can see how genuine this experience for you was. Idk why but I can see it in your body language. You did a truly great thing, and as someone that has felt the despair and pain the Michael was in, I truly appreciate you doing this. Because you ACTUALLY saved his life. You didn’t offer him a chance for a better life, you offered him a chance to find value in life to keep
Living. There so many people who lose hope and in despair take there own life because they find no way out. You truly did something amazing here.
Not all us homeless people are bums. Circumstances can change at anytime. I've been homeless for 3 years but run my own graphics business. From sleeping on a cold unit floor, I managed to build a caretaker flat within the unit and look forward to success and a better future.
Congratulations Michael! Well deserved.
Sometimes life just deals a shit hand, sometimes it deals a better one. Either way you've been playing it as well as you can. Good on you
When the world seems to be going to total crap it's things like this that restore your faith in humanity. Excellent work by all involved, all to help one person down on their luck. You're going to have to work bloody hard to beat this Alex!
You can just tell what this little help means to him, that’s a great company doing great things for people
Fantastic to hear Michael is doing so well. Once again, a massive thanks to Alex, all the lads at cars under 3000, and to Pete for giving Michael a decent job, everyone involved should be so proud of what they’ve done
Wonderful, wholesome stuff.
In the days of social media trolling,where everyone has an opinion no matter how welcome it is, this is an outstanding example of how to be a good human being.
Top work by all involved
#benicepayitforward
This is beautiful. This is the world it should be. Thank you Alex, you've changed this man's life massively. 👍👍
@@bigduphusaj162 if you're into that then that's fine 🙂
So nice to see videos like this instead of people flexing how many thousands they've spent on their cars. So glad Michael landed on his feet, he seems like a cool guy. Well done all round Alex and everyone at cars under 3000 👏
This is how I want adrevenue to be spent. Watching the pre-rolls and in-video ads in full for this one.
been 2 months jeez love these kind of videos keep it man love ur channel think u need to get ethan and jack on sometime
Alex my man your an actual living legend keep doing everything your doing in life your an amazing person mate ❤️
Absolutely brilliant and beautiful to watch. So refreshing to see great companies and people around to help others in need. Incredible transformation and all the best to Micheal in the future. Well done Alex and the crew for putting it together.
I was thinking about Michael and what you did for him just a couple of days ago, and was so happy to see this follow-up. Very glad to see Michael thriving. Good on you Alex, and the lads at the car lot.
Keep on with the good work. Be a good person ☺️
I wanted to say THANK YOU for helping the people that you do. I’m sure your life will prosper and you will reap the rewards you sow into those that you touch. People like you make a difference in the world.
Great to see an update on Michael! Congratulations to all of you who've been instrumental in his journey. Touching!
This is such a heartwarming video. I'm very happy for Michael and proud of his efforts. I'm glad he has so many good-hearted people around him. Thank you all! I wish Michael and all of you the very best!
Good man Alex... Good man.
I love this story. It is so heart warming. Lovely to know there are so many really special people in this country - in fact this is no longer a you tube channel - it’s a community.
Seriously I think this is one of the best channels I've seen in so long and addressing a very chronic issue I am just so happy to have found you and a big fan and new subscriber.... You're amazing thank you so much for all that you've done
This would be an incredible series, having Destiny take unfortunate people off the streets one at a time and helping them get their life back on track, if there's one trend that should catch on, it's definitely helping each other, great work guys!
notification squad!🔥🔥🔥
This touched home deeply.. just want to say massive thank you alex & Pete! Sometimes it isn’t the issues in life that define us as people but how we deal with them! This video just adds that little bit more hope that there is something better around the corner.
Amazing guys!! Such an amazing story and glad to see he’s doing well!
Dusty in here ain't it...
I have just come across your channel and boy it got me in tears. Sometimes you do get genuine people that want to make a difference in some ones life that has been going through bad times. This channel is very inspiring and I am now your biggest fan in Cape Town South Africa. This is more than a car channel but a real community that brings people together in small but effective ways. All I can say is keep on doing what you doing this channel is going to be great and even better in future. Regards Davan Johnson
I'm so glad you, Danny and Pete have all helped Michael turn his life around as he is such a nice guy and so deserving of all this help to get his life back on track.
So happy for Michael, he seems such a genuine guy very humble and down to earth, its people like him that deserve a break, well done Alex and well down to carsunder3000, such a thoughtful thing to do
We all have a heart but only some of us know how it should be used...Great job Alex...your a good man.
A couple of bang up proper small businesses there, what they have done by helping someone out will pay them back in spades. Smart owners and probably both good places to work. Best of luck Michael and well done Alex too for putting it together.
You guys are just awesome for this. It has to feel good to be able to give back like this. You’ve legitimately changed Michael’s life for the better. You should all be proud.
stories like this just shows us that you should appreciate what you have. You don't need a new car every bloody year. You don't need bigger TV than your friend or new iPhone etc etc.
Peace ✌️
A very, very well done to everybody involved. Such a nice story. And everyone benefits. Michael got a car, some stability and a job. The place he works at gets a decent hard working employee. Cars under 3000 get some nice press and Auto Alex gets a video out of it and good press as wel. It's a win all round. Very nice everyone.
Love the support given to somebody struggling, and respect to this channel and his new employer. Solid work!
Absolutely amazing to see the follow up to this story and how quickly a life can change from a relatively small act of kindness from one person but is a life changing act to another
Great job Alex and crew. Lovely to see kindness exemplified in a real and tangible way.
Absolutely amazing all of you involved!
This is such a better love story than the notebook. Good on you Alex and good on him for keeping it together and making the absolute most of the gifts hes been given. What a legend, the whole lot of you.
It’s amazing to see people coming together to help someone out. Good work!!
This is truly one of the most heart warming videos I have EVER watched. You are all heroes for what you have done.
His hands twitching tell all his geniune emotions, and im having tears of joy for the guy, this channel is just wholesome, spread positivity, well done alex and to all people involved
As a fellow 59 Plate Mondeo Titanium X estate owner (with a mere 138k on the clock), I’d like to welcome Michael to his new car - well deserved.
With a bit of regular (annual) maintenance they can be a reliable comfy daily driver, and my 2.0 diesel will easily turn in 50+ mpg on a 70 mph motorway run.
I’ve “camped” in the back of mine a few times too (I’m 6’ 2” and can sleep comfortably with the rear seats folded down).
Thanks for making a difference, a good lesson for us all.
Well done Alex, you have done proud by Michael as well as the cars under 3k guys. Huge pat on the back to you all an pleased at Michael for getting on!
Its a great thing you do Alex and all involved! Much respect to you all x
Videos like this just prove there are some lovely people out there, nice to hear things are on the up for Michael
Hands down the best two vids you have produced, that is not to say you you and your team put out bad vids, its just the feel good feeling from watching Michael get that break and turn things around, full credit to Alex and team and also Danny for the car and Pete for the job offer. Just brilliant.
Amazing story and amazing to see how good people can be. Huge props to under3000 and Alex, you guys have literally changed this man’s life along with his new boss. Great story
Alex and the car throttle guys made me appreciate $4*tboxes and old used cars rather than new cars of the year. Instead of buying a new car of the year for 30k or more from a dealership, just buy a pre own certified rusty high mileage vehicle that has been mistreated for under 10k or 5k and below and start my DIY projects my own and it’s much fun and cosmetic than owning a brand new car of the year. Good job guys. Love $4*tboxes more than everything
proper buzzing for michael, such a great thing you all did for a vunerable guy who is now on the road to a better life, outstanding from all
Love how a lil push and help can completely turn a person's life around. Hate how homelessness is demonized so much in the US, constantly getting fined and jailed for just trying to survive.
Amazing to see how someone's life has turned around so fast. Michael wish you all the best with your new job.nalex your a great guy for doing that.
Congrats Michael! KUDOS to Alex, and the lads from cars under 3000! God Bless You All!
