just along for the ride weren't invested in the car you were using it was even weird when Alex pointed out that everyone was them selves when the camera was rolling but you 😂
100% on the car community helping each other out. It reminds me of when I lost my oil filler cap down my engine bay on the London to Brighton this year and 4 or 5 guys came around to help me fish it out with various improvised tools. One particularly slender handed gent was the winner though & managed to get it.
You guys should do a Gumbalkan Trip next summer I'm sure its going to be lot of fun and content to make. It's what this channel is about cheap, questionable cars and hope making it through!
This channel is honestly incredible, I pay 4 quid a month as a channel member, and this is why. By far and away the best content, and what a series it is, amazing people, amazing experiences, all skillfully constructed into 30 minutes portions of pure entertainment bliss. This channel is everything! Edit: Just a quick question too, is there a possibilty of releasing the full podcast videos, or even just the full podcast sound on youtube, because anyone, including myself, using youtube music is missing out. Would love to see it released on YT music.
I've been driving for just over 40 years and i've never really appreciated the car community , that was until i recently got a 07 Saab 9-3 Aero vert.. Can't speak for others but the Saab community is absolutely amazing,
Amazing support from Tom and Charlie, thank you gentlemen, you make us proud to see that there are still good hearted people in this world. WELL DONE and thank you again gents. 🍻
@@schrodingerscat8621 i think auto alex and team would disagree and tell you to do one. Car community all helping out and having fun here. Dont be a cock jockey.
The refreshing part of all this is that there are still GOOD PEOPLE out there and in todays day and age people like Charlie are few and far between great episode can't wait for the installment 😂
This series is great, so many people have tried to replicate top gear road trip/cheap car challenges on TH-cam but you guys have nailed it. It’s original, unforced, comedic and informative at the same time. From all subscribers thank you
Bruv I’ve watched this lad for years and to see him branch off and start his own Chanel and then for someone like Charlie one of Alex’s fans to help out like soo… fucking beautiful lads! So happy to see Alex doing so well ❤
Honestly, I'm bitterly disappointed that Alex didn't go for an MG ZS 180 as the V6 option - it would certainly have got him there more reliably than the Alfa...
This has VERY VERY quickly become my favorite TH-cam channel and the videos y’all are putting out are absolute gold 💛 laughter from beginning to end, love y’all!
This is such an epic series so credit to the writers 😉 but in all seriousness, your passion and humour shine through, and I hope you do more challenges like this.
This was a great episode. These guys together are really , genuine, humorous, a bit rude but always respectful to each other . A real adventure. I can’t wait for the new episode
I grew up watching Top Gear and became an automotive journalist like Alex. But now i would rather be a part of this channel any day! The content is always SO ON POINT! The humor is perfect and doesnt feel forced or over the edge. LOVE IT!!! LOVE! IT!
seeing you guys driving around my home town is awesome, so glad you lot moved to Reading. hope to bump into yous for a selfie one day 😊 your the best thing on youtube!
Who knew that driving 400 miles at normal motorway speeds could destroy a car and cripple two more, leaving the only reliable car as the one with a plywood grille and a wifi anti-roll bar! Amazing content gents - absolutely brilliant. Can't wait for the finale.
Hey Alex cover it up a little better, at around 3:18 you can definitely spot the wheels, wing mirror etc, and it’s then really easy to tell what car is the V10… You give it away a few minutes later, but anyway… cheers! Great video, can’t wait for the next!
I’ve paused this to come here and express how much Tavarish’s seat belts in Taylor’s car are terrifying me! The buckle (which should be on or below your belly button) being on your chest is basically guaranteed massive injuries if you have an accident. Broken ribs at LEAST. If even one person reads this and remembers to do up your lap belts tight before you attach and tighten your shoulder straps, it will have been worth this mini-rant. Right back to the video!
Loving the longer video, more mayhem in one sitting. Love it. Love all your videos to be fair. But, what, no discount from Quad Lock....seriously c'mon now!!!
Alex should get the Nobel prize for writing this script. Jokes aside, this content is miles better than what Top Gear has been producing since the trio left. Can't wait for the next episode!
FYI for the alfa if she is salvagable, next time put a piece of cardboard on it that says NO OIL as its what they do on roadkill when doing all that to keep track of it, and not do that same thing, and list everything else they need to do on it in a rush. also immobilizer with the jag, they age and fail and then do that.
Not being able to meet you on the way out to the Nurburgring was a massive shame but after this video and the last one it all makes perfect sense lol. (and of course I met you on the way back) CANNOT wait for the next installment, when we get to see what you guys told me about 7 men and big Pete. 😅
I don't know if the QV has this, but my 164 Lusso had electrically reclinable rear seats - with the buttons down by the transmission tunnel, so the driver could reach back and recline the rear passengers seats "remotely"! Good for a laugh...
This has been a wholesome af journey. Loving this crew so much. Freddie is a fucking legend. When he's not on Car Trek or rebuilding crazy cars, he's featuring in other great channels
I grew up watching Top Gear and was super sad when it ended. @autoalex you guys are doing a fantastic job and love it! You guys are the modern day Top Gear!
The good Samaritan trailer offer happened to me when I broke down with my motorcycle once.. so totally believe this random piece of luck was genuine. Still good people out there :)
Auto Alex needs to do a US trip and all 3 of them get 3 different American Muscle cars. One ford, one dodge, one Chevy. Would be an awesome end of year vid or maybe first vid of 24
I think people will forget that these past few episodes have been spread out in comparison to the amount of time it was filmed over . If my ruff estimation is right all these episodes happened roughly within a week including next weeks episode with makes all this even more nuts that it happened like it did
GET YOUR QUAD LOCK PHONE MOUNTS AND CASES HERE: bit.ly/QuadLock-AutoAlex
But Alex, I have no use for one 🤷
Link doesnt work. 403 forbidden
quadlocks are actual the fkn best too, i got one last month, its so solid.
This better than most Top Gears I've watched! So good!!!!
these are so much fun to watch..
thanks for doing what you do..
What a fun time! Let's never do it again.
I could honestly see you never wanting to come back to the UK after this 😂 I Genuinely felt bad when the Jag broke down.
I hope you didn't drive the burrowed XKR.. 🤞
you guys are all about brexit ha ha ha ha ha ha
just along for the ride weren't invested in the car you were using it was even weird when Alex pointed out that everyone was them selves when the camera was rolling but you 😂
next challenge idea. You all buy a crashed/flooded/burned supercar. That you fix and drive on the ring.
Tom Lenthall is an absolute hero - I feel genuinely bad for the guy fixing all of Alex's shit. I hope he's being paid well 😂
Paying him time and a half at least hopefully.
@@luissera1296 Publicity is good mind you
I expect he won't have a free slot at his garage for the next few years.
He probably also has guaranteed work from these daft buggers 😆
What a legend Tom is and Charlie
So...Freddy's in a great mood, and nobody's talking about the scuffs on Alex's knees.
😂😂
"Oh no, because we're only bringing 3 cars they've only booked us 3 hotel rooms. Looks like we're going to have to share. Haha, what a shame."
Under rated comment
hahaha@@drunkenhobo8020
Patreon only for that I think buddy! 😂
I wish these episodes were uploaded more than once a week, I can't wait to watch them!
I never expected you to watch this type of content its sick
Not only more than once a week but they should be longer as well.
There's no need for short and quick car fixing montages
Do what I tend to do... I wait for most of them to be released and then watch them...
It does kill the cliffhanger concept though for the creator.

People like Charlie and Tom are the reason the world keeps spinning
Spot on👍
Toms a fucking legend ,passion for what he does true hero !
Yeah Alex I’m going to need that series finale right now please. This was absolutely hilarious 😂
Charlie and Tom are absolute old school legends!!! Love the car community we are all a part of!! Great video lads
When Alex organizes a trip to the Ring, it usually turns into a weird survival experience.
You guys should do a Gumbalkan Trip next summer I'm sure its going to be lot of fun and content to make. It's what this channel is about cheap, questionable cars and hope making it through!
Agreed, definetely should join gumbalkan :D
These cars would probably fit there better.
I think they all would get raped somewhere in Slovakia :))
@@WARXion that is so true :D

Mark Mccann Just became my new favorite hero. That car is a rolling meme, and I am absolutely here for it.
I've been driving for just over 40 years and i've never really appreciated the car community , that was until i recently got a 07 Saab 9-3 Aero vert.. Can't speak for others but the Saab community is absolutely amazing,
Amazing support from Tom and Charlie, thank you gentlemen, you make us proud to see that there are still good hearted people in this world. WELL DONE and thank you again gents. 🍻
This is epic! Tavarish needs to be a regular on the channel
He needs to move over here.
He's American lol not possible
They need heavy planning to meet up in Germany for the American. Us Scots and brits can easily get the Eurotrain but it's still a day of effort
No he doesn’t. I watch the show for the British charm, Tavish in the group is like a turd in the punch bowl

This is a really great episode!!…. Well written, good acting and great cinematography… 😂
The jag breaking down is not what i expected 😅
😂😂😂 sure 😊
Note to self don't read the comments until after the video. Now I'm expecting the Jag to break down.
What absolute legends Charlie and Tom Lenthal are!!!
This series is great, so many people have tried to replicate top gear road trip/cheap car challenges on TH-cam but you guys have nailed it. It’s original, unforced, comedic and informative at the same time.
From all subscribers thank you
Met the guys on the Belgium/German border. Everyone one was down to earth. Great experience❤ keep the good work up❤
Bruv I’ve watched this lad for years and to see him branch off and start his own Chanel and then for someone like Charlie one of Alex’s fans to help out like soo… fucking beautiful lads! So happy to see Alex doing so well ❤
Old top gear vibes I expect, personally would have had an Abarth 595 for the I4 engine but that Z3 is amazing
Could you get an abarth 595 within budget?
Honestly, I'm bitterly disappointed that Alex didn't go for an MG ZS 180 as the V6 option - it would certainly have got him there more reliably than the Alfa...
@@AWMJoeyjoejoePossible, just difficult
@@AWMJoeyjoejoe Easily, I'm always looking because my Dad wants to upgrade his Fiat 500 but he'd like a facelift.
@MotorHeartAT Cheap run around to keep miles off top spec Octavia,done some cosmetic stuff to it
Oi! Where's my new episode? Helloooo...!
This has VERY VERY quickly become my favorite TH-cam channel and the videos y’all are putting out are absolute gold 💛 laughter from beginning to end, love y’all!
The 4 of you should do a cross Europe trip in the best Grand Tourers you can find for 8 grand. There's alot of interesting choices in that pricepoint.
OK, you guys have done it. Officially better than the main stream boys. Genuine and epic. Looking forward to the next one 👍
Mark never fails to beat expectations
This is such an epic series so credit to the writers 😉 but in all seriousness, your passion and humour shine through, and I hope you do more challenges like this.
This series has been just so naturally fun, theres lots of videos of xxxx£ car buying challenges, but this one’s been so exciting!
Round of applause for Charlie and Tom, absolute heroes
This was a great episode. These guys together are really , genuine, humorous, a bit rude but always respectful to each other . A real adventure. I can’t wait for the new episode
Actually in love with Taylor he's hilarious
I grew up watching Top Gear and became an automotive journalist like Alex.
But now i would rather be a part of this channel any day!
The content is always SO ON POINT! The humor is perfect and doesnt feel forced or over the edge. LOVE IT!!! LOVE! IT!
Fair play to Tom, man thats not just the extra mile... its the extra few 100!. Oh and top man Charlie.
15:57 - Charlie is a Seattle Seahawks fan! I like him already! LOL
seeing you guys driving around my home town is awesome, so glad you lot moved to Reading. hope to bump into yous for a selfie one day 😊 your the best thing on youtube!
Ditto.. quite curious where the unit is.. met Alex before once (whilst boarding a plane!) He is really nice IRL too :)
More Tom Love! That man is a true car/jag guy through and through. I respect the commitment
Who knew that driving 400 miles at normal motorway speeds could destroy a car and cripple two more, leaving the only reliable car as the one with a plywood grille and a wifi anti-roll bar!
Amazing content gents - absolutely brilliant. Can't wait for the finale.
Hey Alex cover it up a little better, at around 3:18 you can definitely spot the wheels, wing mirror etc, and it’s then really easy to tell what car is the V10… You give it away a few minutes later, but anyway… cheers! Great video, can’t wait for the next!
We absolutely need more of these. More guests, more chaos.
What a fking chad that guy Charlie, hats off dude :)
The man eating a pastry in the background when the Alfa broke down was excellent
14:22 I think Tom is going for a bit more than an extra mile. Plenty of miles.
The amount of help that people gave was very heartwarming
I must say Alex, I broke awy from your channel a long while back and im not sure why but you are much more entertaining than i remember, good stuff!
God damn Car Throttle screwed up when they let Alex slip away. This channel is going places
I’ve paused this to come here and express how much Tavarish’s seat belts in Taylor’s car are terrifying me!
The buckle (which should be on or below your belly button) being on your chest is basically guaranteed massive injuries if you have an accident. Broken ribs at LEAST.
If even one person reads this and remembers to do up your lap belts tight before you attach and tighten your shoulder straps, it will have been worth this mini-rant.
Right back to the video!
Best channel on TH-cam! Can't get enough of the realistic budget roadtrips 👌
Don't let anyone stop you doing what you do now Alex, it's brilliant.
Fulcher Motorsport, Alfa Championship legends, well done for stepping in. Doing what Alfa enthusiasts do.
Loving the longer video, more mayhem in one sitting. Love it.
Love all your videos to be fair.
But, what, no discount from Quad Lock....seriously c'mon now!!!
I liked this video purely for Charlie. What an absolute gentleman!!!! A true reminder that there are still kind people in the world.
Alex should get the Nobel prize for writing this script. Jokes aside, this content is miles better than what Top Gear has been producing since the trio left. Can't wait for the next episode!
Misha is a legend! So are you guys!
12:34 my man sleeping standig up xD xD
lol @ alex's face after starting the alfa without oil
14:18 - Wow, just WOW. If I need my Jag working on Mr Lenthal is top of the list - Unreal, no messing about, just get it done. What a guy....!
My favorite series on youtube right now. cant wait for the next episode T_T
With the amount of ads and plugs it actually felt like a daytime TV program, good just job lads
The best channel and bunch of guys with content to match. Absolutely brilliant Alex. You deserve every bit of your success and Taylor, you too. 👏🏻
@fulchermotorsport are total legends!
Champion. You boys are literally living the automotive dream. Mates, cars and a road trip.
You should give Charlie the Jag when you're done to say thank you! What a gentleman!
I like the "not at all scripted parts" of Autoalex xD
Great work writing the script Alex! :)
FYI for the alfa if she is salvagable, next time put a piece of cardboard on it that says NO OIL as its what they do on roadkill when doing all that to keep track of it, and not do that same thing, and list everything else they need to do on it in a rush.

This is like old school Top Gear - brilliant.
This scripting is just world class! I love it!
Absolutely spot on. Everything he was saying !
Love this! Alex & gang I feel are the only ones properly doing this.
IM GOING TO THE GREEN ROOM. funniest thing I seen all year!
Good luck with a straight pipe in the Ring, they make a lot of stress with loud cars ✌️
Congratulations Alex you have made it. Cudos but you deserve it , integrity shows through,!
love the scripting in this episode! was on the edge of my seat throughout the whole thing! Love it, keep it up!
Loved the scriptwriting for this episode, kudos to the writers.
“It’s been banged up the bum but haven’t we all” 😂😂 then Taylor says same 😂 best thing is he’s actually gay, mark and Taylor are great 😂
I don't know if the QV has this, but my 164 Lusso had electrically reclinable rear seats - with the buttons down by the transmission tunnel, so the driver could reach back and recline the rear passengers seats "remotely"! Good for a laugh...
Oh my goodness - been away for a couple of weeks and spent today catching up with TH-cam - you guys are just smashing it!
Thursdays are my new favourite day of the week 🫡
This has been a wholesome af journey. Loving this crew so much.
Freddie is a fucking legend. When he's not on Car Trek or rebuilding crazy cars, he's featuring in other great channels
Tom doesn’t go the extra mile, he goes the extra country.
What a legend for that though
I grew up watching Top Gear and was super sad when it ended. @autoalex you guys are doing a fantastic job and love it! You guys are the modern day Top Gear!
Anyone who has ever had an issue whilst travelling to a destination like this can relate! Awesome work chaps, cant wait for the next one!
You must have spent a fortune on a script for this episode 😂, literally couldnt make it up but fairplay to tom and fulcher motorsport.
Thank you Tom and Charlie!
The good Samaritan trailer offer happened to me when I broke down with my motorcycle once.. so totally believe this random piece of luck was genuine. Still good people out there :)
Mark mcann just makes you smile.
Mark looks like a spare part in all this
That Alfa is such a gorgeous vehicle
Auto Alex needs to do a US trip and all 3 of them get 3 different American Muscle cars. One ford, one dodge, one Chevy. Would be an awesome end of year vid or maybe first vid of 24
This was just great! Can’t wait for the next episode!
You could hear the passion in Toms voice.. damn that man goes all the way!
I think people will forget that these past few episodes have been spread out in comparison to the amount of time it was filmed over . If my ruff estimation is right all these episodes happened roughly within a week including next weeks episode with makes all this even more nuts that it happened like it did
Charlie with the Seahawks cap, way to go 12!
The Alfa looks great!
28:40 Taylor has look of despair mixed with f**** this s****
