The pushing drag race was a valid relevant choice, because they're both Jags after all... They're gonna break down a lot. Makes sense 😂 A fact Alex demonstrated for us as well lol.
@@topmandog1 They have done it. Old cars face off with Jeremy´s 1963 Grosser Mercedes (600), and James in his 1972 Rolls-Royce Corniche. Series 11, Episode 5.
Ha ha, that was a *GENIUS* move ! Great to see you and Harry guesting on the channel. That was a very enjoyable watch. Hope there'll be more collaborations between you three.
@@HJ-vs7lf I don't get the adblock reference. I watch YT on my laptop and never see ads, just the sponsored content shout outs during videos that have partner support, and I'm ok with that.
Didn't expect Harry here what a treat! The more appropriate jag for him to drive would be the gorgeous xjc to complete the manual swapped trio but still what a surprise!
Many were begging Carwow to have a running race between Yianni and Mat; well played on actually delivering! (and making it relevant) and props to Alex for not only coming up with the idea but actually fulfilling and being victorious! What was his qtr/mile time? 😸
I could not believe when I saw that shot of the Project 8 lining up with those golden wheels and thought: "Hey, I know this car. It''s Harry!"". Then the man himself showed up like a complete boss. Didn't see that coming, it was genius, even though without his own manual-swapped Jaguar - you guys made the Project 8 fit. Nice crossover with him and Alex, congrats!
Harry ! So unexpected. Such style and such class as always. I love how an understated youtube dad can put two youtube kids in their place. Show them how to do things properly, smile at how childish they are, and walk away.
That was absolutely brilliant well done Mike for pulling that together. Harry was a brilliant surprise. Also I’m sure Edinburgh AC will forgive you for that performance 😆
I have this thing I put in my cars fuel tank every single time I fill up, without it the car just wont run! It improves throttle response, makes the car run smoother, heck, it even stops better when using engine braking this beautiful additive is called P E T R O L and its truly a brilliant invention!
It always baffles me how close Mike sits to the wheel. He’s basically got his knees wrapped around the steering column with the keys resting on his leg 😂 8:50
But seeing Mike standing next to Alex, maybe he's not very tall? Considering the only other reference we have is Richard Hammond, none of them would sit far from the wheel!
@@althejazzman oh don’t get me wrong I completely understand that but I’m 5”6 and I sit further back than that. I would just be so uncomfortable with my legs at a 90 degree bend while driving. Saying that I’m not a racing driver so maybe you have to sit differently? Just looks odd to me lol
Can you elaborate, please? I, and I'm sure a few others, have never understood Mike's signature sign-off phrase. Is that something Harry used to say, or maybe someone at Evo? I watch Harry's Garage regularly and haven't heard that phrase or anything like it on there before.
It’s cool and interesting to see content like this and a glimpse of what the future of motoring content might look like, especially with shows like both Top Gear and The Grand Tour coming to an end
I'm really not sure why everyone desperately wants the trio to get back to top gear (Well I do... but) - The content available in this field has never been better - Like seriously amazing - Let the TV die, it's had it's time.
Aaaanyone else really enjoy the chemistry between Alex and Fernie? Drivetribe… give the people what we want (more motoring long form now we’ve no more Top Gear or Grand Tour).
Awesome! Just awesome! Remember pushing friends car (she insisted to try to push start with first gear and easing the clutch) a couple of kilometers... no this car was not 1700 kg, but about 1400... everytime I tried to tell don't ease the clutch... just release it when I say... but nope... she slowly released the clutch... My legs, my back felt that pain a couple of weeks afterwards...
Alex vs Harry would make such a great continuous battle/ head vs head contribution to the DriveTribe channel! So many different combinations and tasks they could compete in...Let the games commence!!!
Mike and Ben came to my little coffee trailer last year to review a lancia delta in my village. Mike was literally the most down to earth dude ever honestly such a easy guy to serve although he didn’t have anything. Ben did and the following video they shot was very funny and you can clearly see the effects of the extra shot he had in his americano. They then drove past a few times waving.. what a day
This was a great collaboration! You guys had me laughing! You just earned another crossover subscriber from the Auto Alex channel! Looking forward to checking out your content.
Sorry MIke, but have to point out, at 5:12, 1st take mark where can had been on 1st try, and product "not easier to use", as you spill 1/2 the can on the paint work
Now you have to drag race Harry’s manual XJC-12, because you did say, the fastest Manual Jag on TH-cam. Although Roadkill has a blown-hemi XJ12 from a few years ago. BTW - Great ending!
Thanks to Liqui Moly for sponsoring this video! Check out their products: bit.ly/Liqui-Moly-23-H5
Thank you, Moly, for making Drivetribe survive.
i use liqui molly on all my mqb cars ;)
Doesn't the Liqui Moly speed juice mean you'd fail the doping test? 😉
So did Alex get Liqui Moly for his car to make it fair?
Liquimoly stuff is awesome I use their stuff all the time
The pushing drag race was a valid relevant choice, because they're both Jags after all... They're gonna break down a lot. Makes sense 😂 A fact Alex demonstrated for us as well lol.
Despite trying to avoid a breakdown!
Yeah they set the,selves up this comment…. Came looking for it.🤦🏻♂️🤣
deffo something top gear would have done
@@topmandog1 They have done it. Old cars face off with Jeremy´s 1963 Grosser Mercedes (600), and James in his 1972 Rolls-Royce Corniche. Series 11, Episode 5.
I personally wouldn't push a car that far 😂 I'd just call for recovery. Like Jeremy Clarkson I don't do manual labour 😂
If race 2 didn't get me double points, then I'll be very disgruntled!
I mean Technically you were ahead of him for longer over the course of the 3 races 😮🤔
Ha ha, that was a *GENIUS* move ! Great to see you and Harry guesting on the channel. That was a very enjoyable watch. Hope there'll be more collaborations between you three.
Smh... how does Rory do it?
You missed a trick there. Should have said best of three and got a LeMans style start with four people for the last one.
You did well mate hopefully Tom lenthall gives it the love it needs to continue on for along time to come . Massively enjoyed this
Long time Jag owner here… pushability is very important.
Great to see both Alex and Harry guesting on the channel. That was a very enjoyable watch !
It was great to have them both on!
Unfortunately, Alex is very Marmite - and I loathe him!@@Drivetribe
I mean put in some adblock and you can actually enjoy a car show again.
@@HJ-vs7lf I don't get the adblock reference. I watch YT on my laptop and never see ads, just the sponsored content shout outs during videos that have partner support, and I'm ok with that.
They forgot to invite me! Mine would be the slowest Jag on TH-cam.
I absolutely screamed with joy when Harry came on the scene 😂 Completely unexpected!
I began clapping when Harry came on, and the wife was like; "What's happened!?"
When I saw Harry and the Project 8 I was like 🎉🎉
He really did steal the show! 😊
Harry and Richard are my favourite guys on You Tube by a country mile.
What a cameo appearance!
Best drivetribe video yet. Please bring Alex and Harry back in the future. :)
Watch this space!
What an awesome crossover with Harry the legend himself!
Would have loved to see him bring his Jaguar XJC V12
Didn't expect Harry here what a treat! The more appropriate jag for him to drive would be the gorgeous xjc to complete the manual swapped trio but still what a surprise!
I think Harry turning up in the Project 8 was a moment of genius. This was like something from best era Top Gear. 👏👏
This is where Tom Lenthal rocks up with a mental fast jag hes hidden somewhere...
Harry couldn't let me have this one, could he 😂 that Project 8 is 🔥 👌
Been obsessed with the project 8 since seeing it launch, proper jaaaaag
The smile on my face when Harry turned up in his Project 8 was something to behold. I didn't see that coming!! 😁
Wouldn't have been a proper YT Jag-off without one of Harry's Projects, thank you!!
Many were begging Carwow to have a running race between Yianni and Mat; well played on actually delivering! (and making it relevant) and props to Alex for not only coming up with the idea but actually fulfilling and being victorious! What was his qtr/mile time? 😸
The crew still can’t believe both Mike and Alex went the full quarter mile!
@@Drivetribe well, Mike didn't...
Jimmy Jag "looked" cooler 😂
I also suspect that Alex and Rory have a lot more experience pushing cars
Also finished the three races combined in a faster time.
"We're having ourselves a Jag-off". Whaaaa....😲🤭
Already laughing and it's not even started yet. 🤣
So glad Rory’s legs refusing to leg made the edit at the end 😂😂😂
Poor Rory! He’s a great sport 👍🏻
HAHA! Harry randomly dropping in had me in stitches! "Hello!"
What a legend!
@@Drivetribe Proper! Absolutely loved this one! Amazing job.
With Harry Metcalfe showing up you could almost hear him say “you chaps have brought knives to a gun fight”. This was a fabulous episode.
How fantastic with Harry turning up on the line in his project 8 😂
This is what Top Gear needs! Mike, Alex and Harry 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Harry turning up was brilliant. wasnt expecting that
and he just whaft's along ha ha
Love the AutoAlex channel. Great to see him on Drivetribe and the Jaaaag race finally happening.
Aaaaaah I loved this one!!! So cool to see Harry in this Video. I was not expecting this at all. Great collab guys! Please more like this!
Yes Harry, brilliant cameo!
I could not believe when I saw that shot of the Project 8 lining up with those golden wheels and thought: "Hey, I know this car. It''s Harry!"". Then the man himself showed up like a complete boss.

These old Jags are just so beautiful i would still choose them over the newer models.
You're definitely gonna have to have Alex on again. This was a right laugh
Great vid. Absolutely quality to see Harry on the line in the project 8!
This was cool. Cool to see Alex on here and cool to see Harry obviously!
Harry's garage just murdered all with that 'Hello' entrance
More episodes with other channels please! That was awesome!
Great to see Harry have some fun with the boys! More from these two. Well done, Mike! 👍
Great video, loved Harry's surprise. I wont say anything about British cars needing a push. Cheers.
Why does it feel like the results from Round 2 have significant relevance in the Jaguar community?
Loved it when Harry just coolly rocked up… ‘Hello’ 💪💪
This is such an unfair race. Everyone knows Alex is a qualified racing driver
Surprise Harry Metcalfe apperance was class
The tension between these two is funny 😂😂
8:11 to see why you clicked.. for those who haven't got all day
It always baffles me how close Mike sits to the wheel. He’s basically got his knees wrapped around the steering column with the keys resting on his leg 😂 8:50

@@JackWarr3n no racing drivers sit gangster style with arms at full stretch!
At a guess, from seeing him at the NEC, Mike is around 5'9-10 at most. But yeah, his seating position is slightly unusual.
The moment of confused recognition on Harry’s face when he heard “I’ve been Mike” was priceless.
That was funny!
I’ve never understood the whole “I’ve been Mike” thing.
Can you elaborate, please? I, and I'm sure a few others, have never understood Mike's signature sign-off phrase. Is that something Harry used to say, or maybe someone at Evo? I watch Harry's Garage regularly and haven't heard that phrase or anything like it on there before.
Been waiting so long for this, my money is on Alex's Jag.
SPOILERS!!! :D
Ffs why post this???
There fixed it sorry 😂 wasn't thinking clearly
Great to see another car channel colab, more please 🙏🏻 😎🇬🇧
Glad you enjoyed it!
Alex’s channel reminds me of old top gear when they used to do the cheap car challenges those were the best
It’s cool and interesting to see content like this and a glimpse of what the future of motoring content might look like, especially with shows like both Top Gear and The Grand Tour coming to an end
Love seeing Harry. He should be a regular. Maybe Stephanie from I Drive A Classic too.
I nerded out so bad when Harry came into shot. When you mentioned fastest Jag my inner monologue said "I thought Harry has the fastest Jag on TH-cam".
Pushing is a big part of the jag ownership experience. Unquestionably valid race
It's funny, because when I saw "Who has the fastest Jag on TH-cam?", I thought, "Harry Metcalfe". 🤣 I love this.
Great to see Harry pulling up in his Project 8.
The calmness of Harry put these punks to shame.
Any idea how to upvote this multiple times?
Fantastic cameo by the legend that is Harry. And a top bit of viewing all round. Awesome.
I'm really not sure why everyone desperately wants the trio to get back to top gear (Well I do... but) - The content available in this field has never been better - Like seriously amazing - Let the TV die, it's had it's time.
Aaaanyone else really enjoy the chemistry between Alex and Fernie? Drivetribe… give the people what we want (more motoring long form now we’ve no more Top Gear or Grand Tour).
Lots of fun, even Harry showed up!
Alex and Rory have arrived, if you aren’t subscribed to AutoAlex you really should check the boys out.
must point out the podcasts are dangerous, i have spent too many wednesday drives home from work crying with laughter at the wheel
Awesome! Just awesome!
Remember pushing friends car (she insisted to try to push start with first gear and easing the clutch) a couple of kilometers... no this car was not 1700 kg, but about 1400... everytime I tried to tell don't ease the clutch... just release it when I say... but nope... she slowly released the clutch... My legs, my back felt that pain a couple of weeks afterwards...
Love the ending with Harry sneaking in to the race too!
That was a great episode... fabtastic to see Alex and Harry join you. 😊
Based on the quality of their fleet the AutoAlex crew must have a lot of experience pushing cars around 😂
We need more collaborations like this! This was brilliant!
Pure entertainment Thank you Alex Mike & Harry !
This is what we want!
More collabs please 👍😎
Harry pulled up like a James Bond villain. Gangsta asf.
I laughed so hard when Harry pulled up in the P8 🤣
Alex vs Harry would make such a great continuous battle/ head vs head contribution to the DriveTribe channel! So many different combinations and tasks they could compete in...Let the games commence!!!
When someone said “fastest Jag on TH-cam” I immediately raised an eye brow and thought of Harry’s …
Mike and Ben came to my little coffee trailer last year to review a lancia delta in my village. Mike was literally the most down to earth dude ever honestly such a easy guy to serve although he didn’t have anything.
Ben did and the following video they shot was very funny and you can clearly see the effects of the extra shot he had in his americano.
They then drove past a few times waving.. what a day
This was a great collaboration! You guys had me laughing! You just earned another crossover subscriber from the Auto Alex channel! Looking forward to checking out your content.
My dad had an XK140 for about 40 years. Pushing it is definitely a required skill.
This made me smile like crazy, and I really needed that today!
Nice one! Let's see how you would do against Harry's XJC?
Surprised Tom lenthal didn’t turn up in his XJ… will look forward to Tom’s vid with Harry..two beautiful xjc’s
5:22. Mike your the reason we have those infernal safety nozzles on fuel cans!!!!
Alex and Harry Jagging off on TH-cam, it’s a crazy world 😂
What a fantastic video! I bet that was fun to film… I want to see the outtakes!
Great to see you all together having fun. Well played.
My goodness that Project 8 sounds godly, proper jaguar V8 growl 🤤😍
Sorry MIke, but have to point out, at 5:12, 1st take mark where can had been on 1st try, and product "not easier to use", as you spill 1/2 the can on the paint work
Absolutely love auto alex he brings prime top gear vibes
Great to see Harry on Drive tribe.
That was fantastic when Harry turned up in his project 8 that was like AC DC gate crashing a take that concert
Alex, Harry and Mike would make an amazing Top Gear revival.
Very enjoyable video, glad Harry blew all your Jag doors off!
I was literally saying to myself ‘surely Harry Metcalfe has the fastest Jag on TH-cam’ and then🤣
This paralympic competition was pretty nice and fun 😄
This is an amazing duo we didint know that we absolutly need on TH-cam😍
Now you have to drag race Harry’s manual XJC-12, because you did say, the fastest Manual Jag on TH-cam. Although Roadkill has a blown-hemi XJ12 from a few years ago.
BTW - Great ending!
The autoalex hold out your hand is unrivalled and unbeatable
What a great day, & thanks to Harry for showing you both up, Rj in Oz
Just two grown men JAAAAGing off together.
We love both channels ❤
I want these three to do Car Trek UK.
That cameo appearance at the end was legendary 😂
harry showing up was such a lovely touch
