@TheLateBrakeShow I'm not a Radio 1 listener, but I became aware of Greg recently when pictures of him and his M5 came up on my Twitter, my respect for him went through the roof after that and having watched this episode he strikes me as a top bloke
Spot on Greg is so humble and selfless too. I have listened to him since when Fen cotton,Reggie Yates and Chris Moyles were still on radio 1 they used to Mock Greg James there was a time when Reggie Yates was mocking him on BBC three Big weekend but what I admire is the fact that Greg is so humble and he just does things in a selfless manner . Now Yates is history but Greg is the Head of BBC BIG WEEKEND now.
Greg is one of those down to earth blokes who also happens to be well known and well liked. His three main hobbies, as it were, are also mine. I always wanted to be a DJ but never got past the mobile disco phase. I like this M5 version and thought they'd all perished.
Totally agree, he's not let fame get over his head and is still a human unlike the vast amount of "celebrities" we currently have who flash their cash about on social media and have done nothing to account to their fame.
Hi Jonny, in my humble, this is one of your best videos. I am so happy Greg said what he did at the end. What you do and the way you deliver it is top notch. Every time you post a new video I can not wait to watch it. Thank you so much. 😊
My respect for Greg has just gone up further than it already was. I love him on the radio and I’m a massive petrol head who’s also into retro German cars. My dad had an e34 528i when I was in my teens. My first car in 2006 was an e36 318is saloon which were quite rare. And I totally agree with you that bmw know how to make a 6 pot! The s54 in the e46 m3 is a masterpiece!
I had zero idea! Massive props Greg, especially for owning the best M car ever made. EDIT: I own an E34 540i, but a Renault Safrane BiTurbo is a bucketlist car!
I started a new job as a service engineer on the day the first Covid lockdown was announced (23rd March 2020). Due to a large amount of employees being furloughed and me being a new starter, I was covering many areas/regions across the North of the UK, driving several hours a day. Especially Greg but all of the Radio 1 day time presenters were a constant in my life from Monday-Friday for the best part of 2 and a half years through the majority of all the lockdowns. As like many others, I suffered through some hardships during the lockdowns and it was difficult day in, day out, listening to awful news on the radio about what covid was doing to the world and it got me quite down. Greg always had a knack of keeping my spirits up with his ridiculousness and always seemed positive despite what was going on. I never realised how much of a car nerd he was so to find that out makes me appreciate him all that more. Don’t know if you’ll ever see this Greg but you’re a top bloke and keep being you and can’t wait to see what whacky stuff you’ll be bringing to the radio tomorrow! Thanks for bringing Greg to the Late Brake Show Jonny, was a great watch 😁
Greg is a proper gent. I'm completely out of the target audience for radio 1 but tune in every morning. I thought this was a really well put together video. Nice work, especially the opening titles.
As an American I’ve never heard of Mr. James, but I can see why he is a popular radio host. Very bright, very genuine, and just the right amount of nerdy car guy.
I have a really special connection to the E34. I had an E34 as my first car, and then I ended up buying a second one after being absolutely distraught that my first one got rear ended. I always wanted to own the M5 or a touring 540i 6 speed, and there's thankfully still time I can satisfy those dreams. Greg's M5 is gorgeous, and he also got the correct turbine covers. Love me some throwing stars!
Cars and Radio 1, part of my youth. I'll never forget driving around north Wales in the early 00s during the summer holidays with my mom and dad. Listening to the brilliant Mark & Lard on Radio 1 in the afternoon.
I listen to Greg most mornings as I drive my van to work. I had no idea he was a petrol head. I'm like him in many ways, I have a passion for Renaults, my first car was a Clio too. I've always wanted a ride on lawn mower. As a kid I would love looking through car magazines. Thanks for the video, really enjoyed it and I now feel like Greg James is even more of a national treasure, despite the unusual choice of attire at times. Ha ha!
That was everything I thought it would be. What a down to earth guy Greg is and you can see why you two get on. Greg, if you read this, it's never to late to be a rally driver... Trust me. Great interview 👍🏻
This was one of the greatest things i have seen on youtube! I've been an avid listener of Radio 1 since about 1990, the school commute, and Greg James is my favourite presenter thus far. Thanks Johnny 👌👍
I’ve been listening to Greg since his early days on very early morning radio. He kept me company in my long commute in a shitty Fiat Stilo. What a motor. Back when Beemers really were the best. Great episode, Jonny
That car brings back some memories good to see it still in good nick my dad rebuilt that m5 in 2016 drove it to portugal it was a proper car good fun nice to see a good owner with his hands on it
Wonderful interview. I also listen to Greg most mornings, what a lovely lad, interviewed by an equally lovely lad. Really pleased to hear Greg is also a car enthusiast. Thanks for putting this together Jonny!
Not been a Radio 1 listener for many a year! But have listened to Greg James if out and about in the car if there was nothing worth listening to. A great chat with Greg and what a beauty of a car be has in the M5.
Hi Jonny . I must tell you l've never heard or listened to Greg, but what a riot ! Possibly the best show you've presented ! The only doomer is some , in high places, may not appreciate or approve of Gregs candid comments .... this can happen when 2 buddies forget the're recording! I for one, absolutely, thoroughly enjoyed it . I do hope those wheels didn't get damaged by the "sleeping policeman" they were pretty fragile ! In the day Jonny, we called these "Q"cars (quick) . Thanks Jonny , and a huge thanks to Greg ....and l'm definitely going to "tune in " 💖
Cars just make everything better. Bromance much? Loved this. Dont listen to Radio 1, but I think Greg is a thoroughly nice chap. Love his taste in cars. Great dynamic with you both. You should help Greg ease into a career working on shows with you Johnny! Been watching you grow the channel since you started it, Greg would be a great addition!
You both do a great job. My mum also had a B-reg Sunny. Hers was a red coupe, so there. That's a lovely looking E34 M5, digging the cloth interior. In period I thought they looked really big and heavy but, as you say, now they're juuust right. Not heavy but handsomely chiselled, much like myself.
What a brilliant chat. I listen to Greg everyday and this resonates so much with me. My earliest memories are being in my Dad’s Vauxhall Carlton listening to Chris Moyles, Sara Cox, Scott Mills on Radio 1. I used get home from school out Scott Mills on off of Radio 1 and play driving video games for hours.
That was a really great watch Jonny, thanks, ..very sweet m5, Greg should have kept the beautiful Merc though! Quite insightful thoughts with his enjoyment of 'just' driving. Some quality chuckling to be had and a blossoming bromance was evident😊 I did laugh about the espace as I've got a glorious early Fiat Ulysse (ev1) that I like to refer to as a kidnappers or indeed a murderer's bus with its sliding doors and space without realising it was actually a potential selling point😀 also just picked up on the Ronin headlight flashes in the beginning montage on my second watch! Great car chase.👍
Use to listen to Greg when he done early mornings driving a truck. You could tell he was going to be a big name in radio. Always gave me a little shout out. He then moved to a more sensible time slot. And i think a year or two later sent a text and he remembered me and gave a shout out. Fair play , seems like a cool guy . Flash flash from gav the pie man 👍
Love these idol chats. Great interview format, catching the guest slightly off guard whilst talking about something theyre very passionate about. Brilliant!
What a brilliant video! So cool to hear of Greg's interests, and love the love-in of old Renaults! I hope you can do more videos together in future, this is Greg's calling!
Always liked greg, very often listen to him when im out in the work van. Radio 1 isnt really my kind of music but always enjoy his show gives a good bit of energy in the mornings
Always really liked Greg James, used to listen to him on the radio back when Chris Moyles was doing the breakfast show. You could always tell Greg was just a truly lovely person. Really enjoyed this interview, looking forward to seeing what you both get up to in the future!
What a remarkably candid and thoughtful man Greg is. Although I am a "youth" I don't tune in to Radio 1 due to the music, however, I would listen to him all day. There is something refreshingly relatable about him and I can tell how humble he his. As far as I am concerned, it is not boasting if it is something you are genuinely passionate about, and I know that as a Renault Safrane enjoyer, he is a man of exceptional taste. Did you tell him about the Irmscher-tuned Renault Safrance BiTurbo? That would be worth a French collection caper Really touching Film Jonny, Greg is a wonderful chap and I am glad classic cars have really made a difference in his life, that's what they are about.
My mum also had one of these when I was younger seeing the interior brings back memories and also realising the rear seat belts came from the inside and clipped in on the outer.
I had a renault 25 gtx 2.2 petrol. Super comfy. My dad had the first gen facelift espace. It was red and grey two tone. One of the first in the UK. I remember driving from peterborough to Luton then on to Newquay for a summer holiday. We didn’t go much under 100mph all the way. Soo many people would come out of places when parked up to look at the espace. Safrane was a fav…I had a Laguna, some great cars mentioned….maybe a fuego turbo? Rare car now like the 25.
What an excellent video! Completely surprising insight in to Greg, lots of relevant topics, down to earth chat, inappropriate jokes and 90s obscure chat. Thanks both!!
A friends mum had one of these brand new when I was growing up. Loved everything about it, the understated looks, the noise it made and the throwing star alloys. I remember being dropped to the school disco with return of the Mac playing as we pulled up. Felt so cool 😂 I would love to own one at some point.
Another great show, just enjoy watching these as it’s just like chatting with your mates on cars and enjoying talking rubbish at times too. Keep up the great work 🙂
That was brilliant! Greg seems to be the type of guy who could just sit and talk about any old car related stuff, without it needing to be about the latest Ferrari etc. Fantastic work as always Jonny!
Great video. Funnily enough some of my fondest memories are of Greg’s Friday Night Dance Anthems shows from a few years ago, being driven home by my Dad after my driving lessons, full of optimism day dreaming about first cars. Those were the days.
Another brilliant watch Jonny! I've listened to Greg James for years now and these days he's all I really listen to on radio one. Always wondered what the connection was I'd felt but now this explains it, a fellow petrol head!
This was great, massive fan of Greg, he's just the most likeable chap and I always listen to his show when I can. Didn't know he was into cars... what a pair of great guys. Only started watching The Late Brake Show around 6 months ago, but always been a fan of Jonny since Max Power days and glad the mag still gets a mention from time to time 😘
Love this. I have been into cars since my dad took me to scrap yards. Got obsessed by race cars, touring cars and rally cars in the 90s. I'm now into modified cars. I just love spending time with people who are into the same thing. Many an idea has been passed onto me by someone else who has been into the same things. Good on you Gregg 😄
My dad had a BMW 528i, an Espace and a 928 and I spent my childhood mowing neighbours’s lawns as well as spending at least 5 hours a week on our garden tractor. 🚜
I proudly wrote off a Renault Safrane. 3 months old. Same area Greg lived. I was driving my Fiat Tipo back in 1994. Snow and ice. Skied into the back of it at 10mph. First reaction was ‘not bad, bonnet is still in position. Then the Safrane moved forward and I realised that it was worse. He’s car folded up. Mine cracked number plate. They were awful cars. M5 is gorgeous. I’ve just bought an M3 same year. Love it.
My dad has a safranne … bi turbo !!! We also had a 25txe and that computer voice is bang on!!! Those were the days . It had electric rear relining seats
An M5, Partridge chat, and Ronin too! What an episode
Greg is the real deal, and he cares about his audience. The passion for radio, for mental health and welfare, and for cars should make us all proud!
@TheLateBrakeShow I'm not a Radio 1 listener, but I became aware of Greg recently when pictures of him and his M5 came up on my Twitter, my respect for him went through the roof after that and having watched this episode he strikes me as a top bloke
Wow, my 2 favourite podcast people come together! Awesome!
Fantastic. Greg James always seems like just such a nice, well rounded bloke 👍

I listen to Greg most mornings and had no idea about the passion for cars. A humble down to earth guy, who's now even more relatable!
I was so surprised to see this, always been a fan of Greg James and even more so now
Same! Been listening to him for years, never knew he was into cars at all!
SIMP
Agreed. Relatable, driving, music and wanting to be a BTCC driver. I could go for a pint with him.

It was gone when he sat on the bonnet unfortunately….
@@Prodriver33 You don’t know how little respect I had for him beforehand!
Came for the M5, stayed for the Partridge references. Lovely stuff.

What a lovely video! A gentle, amusing chat with a beautiful car as a centrepiece. Exactly what I needed.
Totally agree
I hope theyve got some more lined up, defo could watch some more over xmas !!!!

@@4ringgarage328 it must have been a 525 then. I’m not as clued up on the older 5 series chassis numbers as I am 3 series
I had zero idea!
Massive props Greg, especially for owning the best M car ever made.

What a lovely, warm, honest chat. We need to encourage more man chat like this, it's therapy.
Give Jonny, Sniff and Greg a show. That's the car show we need.

Really appreciated this one. He seems so normal and so down to earth.
I really hope the BBC see this and do a proper car show with Greg James in it.
Really enjoyed that. Nice chat. Two nice guys. Even at 45 I still listen to radio 1 and even listened to Greg when he was on early breakfast.

That was awesome, just a great chat on life, cars, hobbies and much more plus the end had me crying with laughter!
Loved this episode!!! Great stuff Jonny and nice to see Greg too!
Brilliant! Top chap Greg 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 Thanks for all the great work Johnny 👍🏼

Great video and one of my fav all time M cars. Nice one guys
That was an absolute pleasure chaps.2 of my favourite people chatting about cars. 😀
Love this. Brilliant Video, Brilliant passion and Greg is awesome. One thing to change. Original period font dealer number plates 👌
Always liked Greg on the radio, perhaps I’m getting old but he’s the only radio 1 DJ I listen too. Can’t believe he has an E34 M5! Fantastic!

What a fascinating chat with two fascinating people. I hope this isn't the last time we see you two together.

I listen to Greg every day, driving to work in my E46. I've always liked him, but now I know he's a fellow BMW nerd, I love him! Lol

Great as always. You were literally on our doorstep! And that speed hump is unforgiving!!
