Chris Evans you mean? He only survive one season. sadly TG didn't give him another season to learn or show what he had improve. I remember during the first season Rory in, he is not good enough too. second season I see light improvement. But I was surprise he do auto trader so well compare too top gear time. Maybe top gear is just a transition for him to learn. Rory is doing great at auto trader now.
@@eshanmirash2456 totally agree,flintoff and paddy are awful. Harris,Rory and Jodie Kidd would make a good trio for me but trying to recreate the original 3 is pointless. Evans was a terrible mistake,it’s been on a downward spiral ever since in my opinion. Maybe go back to a car show as the comedy effort is unwatchable for me.
@@wingcommanderdaltonwalton67 For me, Chris Harris, Henry Catchpole and Steve Sutcliffe would be a match made in heaven. They have the right amount of car knowledge and passion and I feel that we could get some good banter between them.
Rory Reid is fantastic, such a great writer and presenter, love his story and the honesty, his charisma shines thru on camera, such a joy to watch, hope he keeps making superb content!
Really loved this interview!! Top Gear's loss is Autotrader's gain!! There is not only talent to consider but endearment that is important.. and Rory definitely has that quality!! I've said it before and I'll say it again... Rory is The Don of Car Reviews!!👍👊
No it’s all our loss. The only Top Gear that’s been correct since the originals left, is LeBlanc/Harris/Reed. Only one I can stand on the new show is Harris
Rory was actually my favorite in the TG reboot. Chris Harris was too serious, Matt was actually good, but Rory was more relatable to me. We're just going to ignore the Chris Evans era like it didn't exist. Big thanks to you Rory for entertaining us.
Strange youtube will allow someone with the username 'dronestrike1776' to comment an opinion but make it difficult for anyone to reply. I was trying to 'respectfully disagree' with this person but apparently that isn't allowed now? Gotta laugh at the hipocracy, eh youtube!?? Anyway i found a way to post so shall now say... Rory Reid is/was a terrible top gear presenter and has a lot of cheek criticising Chris Evens, who was also terrible at the top gear job but is better at presenting than Rory can ever hope to be! Hope this passes the scrutiny and isn't deemed hate speech just because of disagreement and dislike!? Will be interesting to keep tabs on responses so please do....
For me my favourite in the TG reboot now called throttle house, its a tier Thomas and James. James is like a collaboration of jeremy clarkson and richard hammond. Thomas is a non toxics Canadian clarkson BMW fanboy ... somehow its works its way much better the reboot and the current Top Gear. I can even say its doing better than grand tour even.
The dynamic with Le Blanc just wasn't right. Big Hollywood star with 2 local blokes? However Reed and Harris worked well together - should have kept those 2, and brought in another guy. Instead we have those awful Northern donkeys
The first time I saw Rory on Top Gear I was smitten. He is clever, speaks from the heart and soulful, but also devastatingly authentic and articulate. There is an x factor that I have not seen in another presenter and it keeps me hooked. Thank you for sharing your manifestation and determination story. It is a reminder to keep the eyes on the prize no matter what obstacles come across your path.
Are you an AI? Something definitely not,,,,,,, um,,,, I'll use the word "Normal" in the way you communicate with others, don't get me wrong I'm not criticising or trying to bring you down quite the opposite in fact, your writing is almost at a professional level as far as I'm concerned it's suspiciously Flawless and you just never see that on TH-cam, English scholar level perfection just as an AI would write a comment praising an episode, other clues that make me SUSPICIOUS AF is the sheer number of incorrect statements that simply don't pass the credibility test. You can be a big fan of Rory but the things you were carrying on about were so over the top over exaggerated just not natural for a human being to say to another human being especially car guys never speak like that. Yeah I suppose I could be wrong. Meant no disrespect.
ok mate, my bad 👍 Just curious, spoken so highly of Rory just wondering your thoughts on Chris Harris, if you were aware of his work pre joining TG plus everything else he does on the side?
This video touched my heart and brought tears to my eyes, Rory. It's a powerful reminder of the impact our emotions can have. Let's embrace our emotions, pursue our dreams, and make a positive difference in the world. Keep spreading love and inspiration!
The sadness I had when Top Gear had gone through one of its many phases and it was apparent Rory was no longer on it was massively apparent, but the sheer delight on seeing him popping up on AutoTrader was immense! Keep doing your thing man!
I do wonder how his segment on EVs would have gone, but ultimately I'm glad that he's here. He does this so well, and to be honest I watch this more than Top Gear now.
What an insight into how RR got into TG by doing a poem for RR! You couldn't have made that one up! This may sound like cliche; fame is temporary, but class is permanent. Rory Reid is evidence of never giving up on your passion through self belief, and it is that very passion that shines through all his auto journalistic content. Keep representing the BAME with your unique creativity and personality RR! Congratulations!!
This gave me goose bumps this Rory, I myself was shortlisted for a presenting job at Auto Trader but in the end was turned down. I just relived every emotion you mentioned in this video! I also was down to the last 5 people for Collecting Cars, but again didn't make the final cut... Earlier this year I was selected for a TV show based on restoring cars, but it all fell through to a legality issue. However I will not give up and I will continue to strive forward! Peace and Love Tom
I genuinely loved seeing Rory on TopGear, not just because of his personality, and the joy he seemed to bring to his role, but as a huge lover of cars, to see someone who looks like you doing something you only wish you could do was/is inspiring. Continue making top shelf content! "If Clarkson and Idris Elba had a love child" ...BRILLIANT!!!
True, however there's a new younger audience that probably relate more to the younger presenters. There's a point where old starts to get old and people want something fresh and new. It's generational change and the oldies can't keep doing the same thing, as their lives change also.
@RB-lt8kt I never really had an issue with the new presenters for a majority of the refreshed top gear after it found its feet A lot of people made a point of boy cotting because of the presenter change but you could always just go watch the grand tour. I watched Top Gear as a car enthusiast so good presenters were just a bonus. As an enthusiast you ended up getting 2 car shows out the whole story, it was a win
ABSOLUTELY love this segment. This is so inspiring Rory. As an actor I know all too well going after a dream only you can see! Alex is so likable too. Congrats to both!
Rory was the best To Gear presenter, they absolutely struck gold with him even if they didnt realise. Glad he's got the Autotrader platform now which suits him perfectly.
I remember Rory way back from the days of CNET's newly launched car section, especially his Nissan GT-R review. Was amazed when he was announced as a TG presenter (me: "wait, THAT Rory Reid? From those grainy mid-2000s reviews?" at a time when seemingly no one else knew him). He's come a LONG way in the last couple of decades and I'm all the happier for it!
Rory, so glad you didn’t give up. I so enjoy your presentations. Entertaining, interesting with style and SO creative. Thank you. You deserve your success. David
Rory and Chris on extra gear were (are) good presenters. They have a real authentic interest in cars and can geek out over the tech. At the time I’d watch extra gear but not Top Gear. Even now I can’t watch Freddie and Paddy’s Top Gear. They should give up in trying to find comical presenters with chemistry, it’s just unnatural and stop churning out the scripts of car challenges and just go back to reviewing cars with real car journalists.
I Love Rory's story...he followed his love, and when he initially failed, he regrouped and learnt and attempted again...on that of that he's poetic in his delivery of car info..... excellent presenter
I’m happy the Focus RS is in the thumbnail, I was so happy watching that review, having owned mine for new in 2016 it was a review I came to relate to a lot. Some people just don’t get hot hatches, but you did and made it dance!
Rory you're the absolute best man! Your story telling, driving ability and car knowledge is incredible. So glad to hear part of your story as it's lived so far. You're an inspiration bro.
Rory is a relatable host. He is fun and engaging yet seems like a regular dude showing you cool cars. I enjoyed the old cast but I like the new ones as well. No comparison because each is great in their own way.
I remember watching Rory review cars before hand on TH-cam, then to see him on my tv on Top Gear was a crazy moment. Everyone was brilliant but Rory bought this flair to the show other then humour and good driving skills. I never really followed up why you left Top Gear, but this episode has been a good look into you're character and where you came from. I can see you've worked wonders with AutoTrader, Just like yourself I'm a petrol head who grew up on Top Gear and would drop everything to be a presenter if I could, thanks for the raw passion you put into you're work. its inspiring.
Never watched Top gear when it changed and despite watching a lot I was never a regular spectator of the show so I only just discovered from this video you were a Top Gear presenter. However I am quite addicted to your Auto trader videos on you tube and love the way you present the cars with all the different analogies. Listening to your story proves you are 100% deserved of your journey and accomplishments!
Chasing, Rebounding, and Making opportunities. Loved hearing the story behind the Top Gear selection. I enjoyed your time on Top Gear. Look forward to more content from Rory as well. Cheers
A story to share. I had known rory from his days at Recombu. Was already a fan. I remember the day he tweeted the news he was going to be on top gear. Absolutely jumped for joy. 🎉🎉
Was a breath of fresh air on Top Gear, iv been a massive fan of TG in all its formats since the onset, Rory is cemented now in TG history, no doubt he will be back on telly at some stage, but for now, he's smashing Auto Trader, there's a couple of TH-cam motoring channels i religiously watch, and Rory's is up there with the best.
Seeing Rory on Top Gear. I knew that mans deserved to be there!! Seeing Rory on Autotrader was even more astonishing. Witnessing him host this channel the first time you could tell there's something special about him. Levels 💯👌🏽 Your a living testimony RR 🙏🏾
Rory and Chris were the best part of new top gear, matt also had his shining moments. But very happy how things have turned with AutoTrader, amazing stuff!
I remember enjoying Extra Gear more than I enjoyed Top Gear, Rory seemed more relaxed, the whole show did, there was a lot more information on the cars rather than theatrical shots with sound bites.. Really good interview this 👍
What a fascinating video - well done Alex and Rory. I really enjoyed listening to Rory's positivity and self-belief - quite inspirational, if I'm honest. Great work, guys... 😎
Rory you're such a breath of fresh air! Your story and journey through to top gear is nothing short of inspirational. I've watched all of your Auto Trader presentations on TH-cam and I've enjoyed them all. Keep it up!👏🏿👏🏿👍🏾
He’s just one of then blokes that you just want to know …. Honest and down to earth kind of guy ….. and a gentleman ….. well done Rory and all the best … you deserve it 👍😁
Everyone needs a friend like Paul in life. The whole rescue story including the ghost video made me all tear up. So emotional. Gotta love it 🥰 Thank You RR 🙏
Great to hear how it all came together for Rory, he's a really highly skilled and charismatic presenter and did the show justice. It just shows, never give up 👍👍
Well that was good! Really enjoyed this film guys. I like the rapport between Rory and Alex, there’s a nice vibe between you both. I was entertained and I learned a lot too. Thanks for making this 👍
This is an incredible video! One of the best inspirational type videos I have ever seen! Amazing quotes on how to ‘get the job’ and how to ‘never give up’ Brilliant idea, thank you for posting!
Why the hell is this non-review video here? Whatever the reason, I couldn't be more grateful. As a long-standing RR appreciator, this feels like the video I've been waiting for since 2015. An impeccable writer, producer, presenter.
I remember reading Top Gear magazine and they asked Chris Evans to list his top 10 best ever cars, after reading it I knew then, he knew Jack about cars. Just coz you have a load of money to buy Ferrari's doesn't make you a car journalist. How he got that job is unbelievable.
Awesome story. One of the great presenters. Love watching auto trader, Now that I found out about your move. Congrats. Keep up the great work. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
I really liked watching this episode. Up until now, I always thought the TG producers dropped Rory. I didn't know that he had left to work with Autotrader. I'm glad that he did, and that it's all working out for him. When I first started watching videos on this channel, it only had over 100k subs, and now it's on its way to 1 million. Keep up the good work. Oh, btw, absolutely loved the part where Rory noticed Alex's odd sock!
Awesome awesome episode. It was amazing to hear the story about how Rory ended up on the second batch of top gear , amazing stories and all the best on future endeavors ❤
What a genuinely nice chap, love his presenting and have definitely been watching more of this channel which I wouldn’t have been without his smooth and authentic presentation style 😎👍
Totally new appreciation for Rory and his work. What I really wanted to know was why he rarely got to drive the top cars, mostly only the economy cars.
Not going to lie, I can't see an episode being better than this one, but prove me wrong! Thanks for the insight Rory. I "listen" to most of my youtube while doing other things but found myself rewinding every second I missed when the DIY tools are going!
That was fantastic both of you - Alex I really really love your presenting but would love the Podcast to be presented as a Video format - I know I'm old but to me Podcasts are like listening to the radio - done that 20 million years ago. Rory - you are a legend - just waiting for the Autotrader Sponsored TV ShowThe ratings would go Cosmic !
Seeing as I wasn't technically on any kind of trolley at the time, I suppose you were correct.
If you’re his mate then everyone needs a mate like you
Where can one make an appointment to fall out of Paul’s trolley?
There is just something so real about Rory’s presenting - no ego, just a guy that loves cars. He deserves all his success.
You don't find him very corny and scripted?
For the life of me, I'll never understand how Rory and Chris didn't end up being the core of Top Gear. They should have offered them almost anything.
Chris Evans you mean? He only survive one season. sadly TG didn't give him another season to learn or show what he had improve.
I remember during the first season Rory in, he is not good enough too. second season I see light improvement. But I was surprise he do auto trader so well compare too top gear time. Maybe top gear is just a transition for him to learn. Rory is doing great at auto trader now.

He might not have been the most polished presenter, but his passion and excitement was visible in every moment. Thats what Top Gear should be about.
Richard, Jeremy & James had something no other presenter or group of presenters will ever have.
The chemistry of old Top Gear is what sold it so well, they were genuinely mates and that made their interactions so natural
@anthsarin070497 old top gear is from the 70's.
True, however there's a new younger audience that probably relate more to the younger presenters. There's a point where old starts to get old and people want something fresh and new. It's generational change and the oldies can't keep doing the same thing, as their lives change also.
But the NEW Top Gear just seems wooden and so scripted but I guess younger people follow Love Island so similar wooden rubbish.

Outstanding interview and it was awesome to hear your story.

Rory is rely good and reminds me of the first few years i started watching top gear,shout out all the way from south africa.
Thanks for showing this side of yourself. Congrats on the journey!
Rory is for sure one of the best carpresenters ever. Like his natural way of doing thinks. Keep on doing this Rory.....

I love this episode, thank you for sharing this
Awesome story. One of the great presenters. Love watching auto trader,
Now that I found out about your move. Congrats. Keep up the great work. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
I really liked watching this episode. Up until now, I always thought the TG producers dropped Rory. I didn't know that he had left to work with Autotrader.
I'm glad that he did, and that it's all working out for him. When I first started watching videos on this channel, it only had over 100k subs, and now it's on its way to 1 million. Keep up the good work.
Oh, btw, absolutely loved the part where Rory noticed Alex's odd sock!
I remember Rory back when he was doing his Rolls Royce rap, and it warms my heart to see how far he’s come since!
Rory’s self-confidence is inspiring.
Awesome awesome episode. It was amazing to hear the story about how Rory ended up on the second batch of top gear , amazing stories and all the best on future endeavors ❤
Brilliant video! Great back story
Go Rory! I'm happy for you.
In every aspect, this was greatly motivating
What a genuinely nice chap, love his presenting and have definitely been watching more of this channel which I wouldn’t have been without his smooth and authentic presentation style 😎👍
Wow, this is really amazing! It's really amazing to hear this story, Rory. Fantastic lad!
Totally new appreciation for Rory and his work. What I really wanted to know was why he rarely got to drive the top cars, mostly only the economy cars.
What an amazing story and testimony!! Glad to have seen this ❤🙌🏽
Great stream, Greater story, thanks Rory 👍
GRANDE RORY! Amazing and epic history!
Thanks for this and all you've done!
I still remember Rory's focus rs review in top review and that's the video that got me hooked to him. Rory indeed is a great story teller ❤
Good to know your driving story and respect to you.
Not going to lie, I can't see an episode being better than this one, but prove me wrong! Thanks for the insight Rory. I "listen" to most of my youtube while doing other things but found myself rewinding every second I missed when the DIY tools are going!
That was fantastic both of you - Alex I really really love your presenting but would love the Podcast to be presented as a Video format - I know I'm old but to me Podcasts are like listening to the radio - done that 20 million years ago.
Rory - you are a legend - just waiting for the Autotrader Sponsored TV ShowThe ratings would go Cosmic !
A video I didn't know I needed. Brilliant
