Why do all 🌈 🏳️🌈 boys wanna sound like graham norton. Cab you ask your mate if he practiced that voice ?
that drink needs to sponsor you guys..
just send em clips of you praising the product, show them the views, and the number of subscribers in x amount of time..
if they say no then theyre no friends of mine regardless of how delicious it is..
Can I ask lads, when will we get part2 of the kei car challenge yous got from mightycarmods?
Congratulations on the birth of Brenda, Alex and wife! Good call to take it easy and let Rory and Taylor do the videos for a bit. I don't have kids and i don't plan on getting them as well but i can imagine it's quite a change that needs some getting used to.
Should of one good times with the kids🎉🎉🎉
brenda what an odd name lol
@@DlZZEE Beef* Brenda
@@DlZZEE it's just the concept name
“Getting” children sounds a lot more suspicious than “having”..
The banter between these two is amazing, not missing Alex in this episode and Taylor is becoming an natural in presenting. Loved this episode
I had a 2008 S6 V10. Drove back from Russia circa 10years ago to Scotland in 3days - averaged 30mpg Latvia, Lithuania and East Poland were slow but still got a 284kph run in Germany
Wow bro that sick From Russia to Stockland in 3 days! 😅
What a hero … well done Sir 😊
3 days!! "So the keep me awake drugs" cost more than the petrol!!
Damn bro, imagine doing a video on that one 😮
DON'T COAST IN NEUTRAL, COAST IN GEAR! Coasting in neutral uses fuel to keep the engine from cutting out, coasting in gear uses the momentum to turn the engine, not fuel!!
Good to know
This was hilarious. Correctly noting that idling was costing loads of fuel, then coasting in neutral. That’s the same thing chaps.
Exactly put it in 6th
Driving with the back window open also isn’t good for fuel economy, but I can understand it with the heat. I can also imagine it’d be better to turn the car off at traffic lights? Especially the German ones that take forever.
@@usaidhelloThe sunroof might have been a better option?
13:30 - W201 with 300,000 km is actually considered a low mileage.
And is in km not miles.
188k miles, that's not much for a modern motorway cruiser
Well in miles it's only 186,000 so very low for that age
@@tomelisforeverThey said it was in I’m in the video.
@@LordInter my dads bloody renault modus diesel is on 240k miles and thats saying something
30:22 close that rear window folks🤣
A full tank without a breakdown on a v10 … incredible
Even more incredible condisidering Rorys car buying history.
Cmon man don't spoil it
@@yasser7395 Yea, sure, as there was a challenge once where they didn't arrive to the destination.
@@JeremiBulakowski His Tesla hypermile challenge.
these are one of the worst cars ever created. I used to fix the things they are a nightmare and not that fast at all. They understeer so bad i would ban them in the UK. Truly one of the worst cars ever alongside V10 chinese BMW
Taylors comment at 7:45 is so true and oh so depressing...
Also, that edit putting the map into the rear window was dope.
Hypermiling episodes are definitely the best challenges
But amazing with sports cars
Taylor turning the aircon on for so long was ridiculous
Bet you use OF
34:39 "Can you drive a lorry to the moon? No, there's no roads on that one." cracked me up 🤣🤣🤣
There's a Roadway to Hell and a Stairway to heaven... So technically you're correct! You can't drive on a stairway to heaven :)
14:49 That editing is genius
It's really easy to make but it's effective and in this case beautifully done.
I thought that too
was going to say that same thing. very classy job
I find when most cars read 0 fuel, you have about 20 miles to get to a petrol station
Taylor turning the aircon on for so long was ridiculous
Most cars when the e light comes on have 10% of the total range left. Manufacturers do this so you don't run it dry and clunk out on the side of the road
@@ProtosR yeh but theres no light any morem its more of a 100km warning then a 60km warning (or similar)
@@JW-qf2fxDo cars really not have a light anymore?
My car has a digital display so I get the range left and it warnings as well, but it still pops a fuel warning light on if I get low enough.
My car also has a digital analogue-look fuel level dial even though it gives me the fuel capacity percent and range remaining
Volvo's are just weird I guess
Yup its a reserve tank that keeps you going for that exact reason
The c6 v10 is a car enthusiasts not forbidden, but silent fruit. Every car person knows these things are soon gonna be unicorns. If u have one now, take care of the rust, remove the intake flaps, carbon clean it, make it mint and wait as the prices are gonna skyrocket soon 💪
Correct. It's special car.
They are already expensive here in Poland. 60000PLN which is roughly 12000GBP for a one that's well maintained. And for some reason none of them are high mileage.
Crikey, a cheeky extra 10psi in the tyres and not driving with that rear window down and I think you'd have easily done it!
Congratulations on the birth of Brenda 🎉🎉🎉 love the channel
Please tell me Alex and his Mrs haven't called their daughter brenda
No, its just a joke...
Her name is Amelia @@Hyster1aMcR
Rory "I have a company card!" Cue maniacal laugh
Rory looking noticeably slimmer, well done!
Noticed the lack of chips at the burger place ;-)
Where has the hamster gone?
New hairdo as well.
22:36 I can't be the only one that wants to scan that check engine light! 😂
German car, it's normal. Means the engine is OK.
If I'm correct, that's not a "check engine" light but something related to traction control, ESP or something like that. It could very well mean they have manually deactivated it. I've never own an Audi but it's what it means in my car.
@@fadetounforgiven pretty sure that's a check engine light on an audi
Probably manifold flaps.
@@mattparkin7224believe it or not the check engine light looks like an engine, that’s traction control related
I'm using autoalex and tdc to try to recapture the feeling I used to get myself with topgear for my kids. On a format and duration fit for the attention span of tweeners. But to be fair, if it doesn't work I still love the content and have love the hours of videos and podcasts. Thanks to all
Rory and Taylor smashed this video! Congratulations Alex and wife!
Your videos get better and better. The camaraderie, cinematography, the fun of it all. Thank you for reigniting the spark of being a complete gear-nob!
6:50 u can see the new editors being put to good use with the floating text
How cool does that thing look at 11:54 Audi does estates so well
Great episode guys, really enjoyed it, although I'm appalled by what you did to poor Terry. First you put a sticker on his car, and then you kidnap him to be your mascot! Poor unicorn was just driving his old 190E, minding his own business until his was jumped by two random blokes at Dover!
We didn't realise how good we had it when the S6, M5 touring, Vantage V12 and all the other cars that got really silly engines stuffed into them were being built. I've always imagined they come about because Engineer 1 bet lunch that Engineer 2 couldn't fit an excessively large and silly engine into a very normal car, and Engineer 2 really fancied a posh lunch that day...
Brilliant video guys!
I was rooting for you all the way!
I can tell you from bitter experience that when a 2.3litre P reg Mercedes Sprinter says no miles in the tank it means it!
Had to coast into a Lidls car park, abandon my wife and 8 month old son, walk just over half a mile, buy a fuel can, fill up with diesel and walk back & coax the van back to life!
I can tell you even for Scotland the climate was extremely frosty inside the cabin!😬😞
More MPG challenges please, these are an absolute delight! 😉
22:34 "It's all loveleh this!" - I love Taylor's top gear quotes
Buffeting, buffeting!
NEXT EPISODE - how to install LPG system on Lamborghini V10 engine
Actually it has been done 🤣 ive come across a white s8 v10, 2006 model i think, with LPG, so yeah its doable😅
Nice little Top Gear - Clarkson / Audi A8 V8 TDI efficiency challenge going on there! Even the same interval sounds haha, nice work boys!
Congratulations on your little one being born mate!! You'll be a great dad!
Entered the competition to win the car, its genuinely my dream car!
16:14 THATS MY STICKER !!!
8:59 you can actually get further ahead by staying in the left most lane because everyone is fighting over the other two and holding themselves up
I don't think they know what the Amsterdam Red Light District is but I'm glad Rory and Taylor did something else fun
Taylor is such a good host for the channel, love to see it. The chemistry with Rory is just great, loved th video!
Nice video as always but calling it a Lamborghini V10 is a myth.
The V10 engine used in S6/S8/R8 and Lamborghini Gallardo was primarily developed by Audi. When Audi acquired Lamborghini in 1998, it began a significant overhaul of Lamborghini's operations, including its engine technology. Audi's engineering expertise played a crucial role in the development of this V10 engine.
Thank you, I was looking for a comment like this. I don't understand how any one can call himself a petrolhead if they call an audi V10 a lambo-engine. Audi 5.2v10 FSI was derived from the 4.2 V8 FSI engine that was used in RS4 B7 and R8 V8, and Lambo developed their own V10 that was later used in R8 V10.
@@ville85 Exactly! I think the "Lambo V10" story kinda stuck and few bothered to double-check it.
Rory taking some editing notes from MCM? Well done brotha.
18:48 - “We’re doing 81 man! Slow it down!!” 🤣🤣🤣
There was a show in the 2000s. It proved that speeds below 55mph windows open above 55mph ac was most eco
Mythbusters
Yep definitely mythbusters
Windows up and no AC? Uncomfortable but better.
this was the glory days of Audi. I had a C6 A6 with the 3.0 Supercharger V6 and it was brilliant! the interior quality was top tier! everything was soft and really good quality
Congratulations on the baby Alex 🎉
Letting Taylor and Rory have some little road trips is a nice break. Hope everything goes well with the baby Alex. The channel is in safe hands with these two
Went full Salvage Rebuilds at 28:20
Cruise control never gives me as good mpg as when I control it. It can't anticipate hills and such and even in steady & flat driving I find it does a few less mpg than I can manage.
(I sometimes hypermile to give myself something to do when in solid traffic and tootling along)
This is just more proof that a big engine doesn't have to mean more fuel consumption, it is all about driving style
Im genuinely impressed you managed to make a video about fuel economy (wich I could care less about in my car ownership) entertaining as hell, good stuff lads.
Your getting better mpg out of that audi than I get from my vauxhall omega 2.2 🤣
23:04 I saw this sign and I was like, "Bergen op Zoom! I've been there! Where does the E19 separate from the A12?" I looked it up, and you are in Antwerp!. I can't believe that Northern Belgium is so devoid of big cities in that direction that all cities listed are in the Netherlands
Its not that devoid. The problem is that Antwerp also governs the villages to the north. So close to everything between city center Antwerp and the border along the highway is still Antwerp.
I have a very strong feeling in the future we will be watching a challenge car vs public transport. Good old top gear days 🙌🏽
Congrats on the new baby!!! And also I can’t be the only one realizing there’s a Rolls on the back of car vertical add, is that a quick pick to a new series ? That’s a car Tylor would have a lot of problems! Keep up the good work guy’s ! Watching all the way from Ecuador
I was expecting Taylor & Rory to sing the Go-Go's song Our Lips Are Sealed (replace lips with Fuel flap)!
Pity that us who live overseas can't win the Audi.
Rory imitating Alex at the beginning of day 2 gives me life hahaha
Congratulations. I own 2004 Audi A4 Avant B6 1.9 TDI 6 speed manual with 540 000km on the clock and still runs. The fuel economy is brilliant. Extremely light on diesel. 5l to 6l per 100 km. And yours is C6 which is still brilliant Audi Avant. And also Audi S6 wagon with 5.2 V10 is very rare.
30 mpg with a 2-ton NA V10 wagon is amazing. Keep in mind; BMW 118i/218i/318i's with their "economical" 1.5 3-cylinder are barely able to reach that in real-world usage, with 60% of the weight and 28% of the power of this V10
You’re deluded if you think a 118i following behind doing this very same test would only get 27mpg
🏆 Win our Audi S6! llfgames.com/win-the-autoalex-s6
Can you deliver it back to Dortmund? I live here
I just bought tickets, I want it back!! Miss this car loads!!
The chemistry you lads have, together with Tom Lenthel is a joy to watch
this feels like a top gear challenge
I hope there’s a video of the way back with full throttle. Need to see this car tearing up the motorways
We definitely need a Auto Alex × JP Performance collaboration 😍
Wow this took me back to when Jermey did a similar challenge in the Audi A8. Thank you for this 😭
Fabulous episode guys. Nice to see Taylor in a complete episode 😁😂🤣. Love the double entendre and the chemistry between you lads. Well done 👍
Congratulations, Alex on the birth of your baby! ❤
Also, the influence of Top Gear, from the amount of these road trips we see on TH-cam, to the little comments like 'Buffeting', really do show how much of an impact the show has had on a generation. ❤
Can we take a moment to appreciate Taylor’s V12 7 series? 😍
I think a road trip with that and the V10 S6 is in order!
I have V10 5,2 S8 full cpec, 5 years now. I make 800km easy on every trip, with kids in the back and stuff in the trunk. And yea, it has 300k km on odo with less repairs than any other audi or diesel that I ever had, It's a very reliable space ship. Not changing car for next 5-7 years.
Thats is not a Lamborghini engine Lamborghini uses Audi engines.
Is all the same VW
See those guys who drove from Morocco to London in a VW? After brimming it at a petrol station they got a few more jerry cans of fuel in the car.
Running it and getting the fuel through the system and filling up the car on an incline.
Great video, the mpg is surprising✌️
Honestly I just love these two together. Such a charming and fun chemistry together! Please drive a lorry to the moon next 😂
That S6 is insane, it has nearly twice the tank of my diesel Polo, and around a third of the MPG but I love it so much.
Absolute cream of the crop lads, excellent video and congrats on the baby
This episode reminded me of the Top Gear Hypermiling episode where they were making it to Blackpool to open the Christmas lights, and Jeremy said f it I'm just going to drive normally and still made it to Blackpool.
That check engine light is probably just Audi's way of saying "why are you going so slow you englishmen" but in a german accent :D
14:20 I'm sure someone else told you too, but coating uses more fuel than letting it roll in gear. Next time :D
Rory is losing his hamster-ness.
Taylor when “Amsterdam” was mentioned 😂 ❤ 👍
Alex, you as a German man might refer to it as 'Holland', but the country has been called 'Nederland' ('the Netherlands'/'die Niederlande') for well over 200 years!
True. I live in Holland
Rustaaagggg
Spaniard here, it may be officially "Países Bajos" (literal translation for "Nederland") but it's almost only the pedantics who use it, it's "Holanda" for most people.
everyone calls it holland..
@@ehnl6534 Der Niederlanden
Alex acting as Mr Wilman this episode, I love it!!! 😂
Started off with EPC and engine light on then they disappeared 🤔🤔
Really good episode! Nail bitting stuff! Congrats on baby Amelia too!
You should definitely meet up with JP and come see some of his cars. This dude is just crazy and has to be the biggest car guy known in Germany next to Misha. I would really like to see you guys making content together.
Of course it can, whatever's towing the trailer its on might need to stop at a few garages though 🤣
damn the number of Rolexes these guys have now... merch sales must be POPPING
I don’t think the Amsterdam red light district is Taylor’s cup of tea. Know what I mean?….
Arent there guys to selling them self 😂 or stripping 😂
Sure it's a sausage fest.... Lol
But I think its is there are Lots of sausage Suckers in Amsterdam😂
There is a blue light district within the red light district for those men of culture who share Taylor’s tastes
I'm sure he'll find the rent boys
What a trip!! Fantastic
Also in my experience with my cars, aircon had absolutely no influence on the fuel consumption, doesn't matter if it was a petrol 1.2 or 2.0 diesel estate
What a coincidence! I just did a hypermiling trip last week, 905 km (562 miles) on a tank - but in my Hyundai i10, which only has a 35 liter tank! I made it with 2.8 liters to spare :)
That's a great effort! 😄 I once managed 900km on 40L in a Toyota Starlet 1.3 from 84 that I had.
And I reckon I could possibly do 900km on the 52L tank in my Nissan Cube 1.6 if I stayed at 80kph (50mph), which would be pretty good considering the thing has fridge-like aerodynamics!
@@Tiaan90 That is really impressive for a carbureted engine! My old Saab 900 GL from 1984 only went 12 km/l if the sun was shining, and it was going downhill with a tailwind, and had the carb adjusted the same day :D
I imagine you could in the Cube, it's still somewhat aerodynamic with the rounded corners and such, and if you find a truck or camper to be behind, it should be no problem at all ;)
@@AIRDRAC Yeah, it had none of the emissions stuff left, I think the carb had 3 or 4 hoses connected 😅
Hahah, they're not the best on fuel, although, my dad once adjusted his 9000i he had when I was a kid, it took less than 6L/100km!
And I have actually ran the Cube on 5,5L/100km in the winter once on 60-80kph roads 😁
I think alex and Co need to make a mascot for the channel and sell them ether teddy or bobblehead 1 of each of the 3 presenters and crew that keep you guys running smooth
first comment and also CONGRATS ON THE BABY!!
Bent
29k views in 1 hour, this channel doing well. Been watching Alex for years from other channel aswell.
NETHERLANDS!!! FFS!
I did a similar drive for the Euros.
I drove my Citroen Grand C4 Picasso - did it from Oxfordshire, via Reading to Düsseldorf and back on one tank.
Should have put an extra 10 or 15psi in the tires and should have followed right in that semis Blindspot behind him to draft for better results
Is Taylor wearing Lady's Sunglasses? The TayTay and the Hamster Boy on their first youtube crusade, I love It!!!
Fair play, the cinematography and editing of this video are immense. Taylor and Rory did well for this video, too.
Terry didn’t look too impressed with his sticker😂
Need a video on that 750i!!
My buddy is actually a 747 pilot! I'd love to see some plane content on here, someway to merge it with the car content. I'm a pilot nerd so this would be fun :)
27:09 A Lynk&Co 01! In blue! I got to drive one when I was in the Netherlands last year, and it would be a great car for the US, I hated it's size for the Netherlands, though. It felt big when we were in tight places.
Double standards - no a/c allowed when Taylor drives, but sunroof open when Rory is driving 😆
It’s bothering me that the high mileage hero sticker has gone on to a vehicle that’s not done more than 300,000 miles. It’s not actually done more than 200,000 miles as it was 304,000km not miles.
However, that’s just me and OCD and being the problem. Great episode as per! Love the format!
Congratulations on the birth of Brenda!!
Great ep! Would have loved for you to do the whole ending in a cinematic climax; letter box ratio, heavily graded footage, suspenseful music (30:00 was perfect!). Either way, brilliant!
Loved the little bit of after effects where the map is inserted into the back window. Little details like that are awesome. Have noticed them more often
