This Supercharged Porsche 911 Is The BEST Car EVER: Alex Kersten | 4K
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
- Alex Kersten hops aboard the new (old) Theon BEL001, a restored and enhanced Porsche 911 (964) that has been completely modernised from bumper to bumper. It features a supercharged 3.6-litre air-cooled flat six engine, semi-active suspension and a noise to die for. Could it be the best car Alex has ever driven.

Lovely to see Alex on a more serious note, and he does a great job at it
Autotrader, literally all of your presenters are fantastic. They make this channel interesting and enjoyable af. Thank you. :-D
It's similar to what Hagerty's been doing with their lineup. We're all better off for it!
So happy to see Alex doing amazing things. He's one of my favorite RUclipsrs and he's a fantastic addition to your fleet. Keep him working!
Autotrader you have made a goood move getting alex who ever decided to hire him has done well here
cheque is in the post 😘
@@AutoalexCars I have good things to say on you too, but how big is the cheque for a start?
@@AutoalexCars Will you be doing more reviews? Maybe together with Rory?
I though he was doing his own thing.
@@Nordlicht05 he is, and doing stuff with auto trader, and still does stuff with car throttle, and he likes to wear ladies shoes!
That air-cooled flat six sends chills down my spine. Can't imagine what it must feel like in person.
Alex on Autotrader is Car Journalism paradise.
It's good to see the serious Alex is back on RUclips
We now get the best of both worlds!
Using a supercharger is a pretty good idea. Great power increase but the exhaust sound of the flat six still comes through unfiltered. Nice.
And the best thing is it still retains the instant throttle response
400 HP for such an antique object sounds amazing to me 🔥
Alex AND Rory, well done AutoTrader. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The 964 is so beautiful, with a modern rework, it’s even more so
Isn't a mix of the original 911 (or 901 as it was called at first).
@@pb5x5 I don’t think it’s the original one. It’s the 964
@@frankwu1713 I know it is originally a 964, just they have take the retro look of a 60's/70's 911
I'm like hold on a second that voice sounds familiar! 😄 Alex Kirsten on Autotrader no way!!!😁 Won't be long now before he is on Top Gear🙃
Oh I hope not. The new Top Gear has been sutch a letdown, that they would have to get actual car enthusiast on the show to make it even close to what it ones was.
I prefer RUclipsrs doing more serious reviews in RUclips. To make Alex fit in Top Gear, they would have to get other RUclipsrs so the energy would match.
@MrCTFIN It's been way better than Grand Tour. That has been the real disappointment
*sees autotrader*
*sees alex*
*excitement intensifies*
This is the man auto trader needed alex!!!!
Did you ask Harry Metcalfe if you could use his road test route young man? 😂
Great film Alex, beautiful machine 👌
Alex. Fantastic! As below, brilliant review and yet still You. Yet with insight and seriousness. A car perfect for You to review too. For those at Auto Trader, more Alex reviews and getting together with Rory and Alex too. Thank you.
Auto Trader+Alex=Like without even seeing the video! Greetings from Greece!
Alex is an ideal addition to Autotrader. An engaging and interesting presenter, who's now well proven on RUclips.
I will follow and watch.
@
Alex Kersten, from presenting and messing with old and rusty Mazda's to being a proper presenter on top with those from Top Gear... Alex, you have all my respect and appreciation for your achievements in your career.
Congratulations, go on boy !
Sincerely,
One of your followers from the very beginnings...
Oh please have Alex do many many more reviews of many many cool cars!! So excited to see him out here
Nice. Alex only needed a bit more production funds behind him.
Excellent.
This is seriously the best review channel now.
Yesssss i used to love when he did the ferarri 488 and lambo review on car throttle. So happy this is making a comeback!
I like this move auto trader keep bringing back alex
Is this Alex' first standalone AutoTrader video? Where have you been?
Alex's smiles say it all. The car is beautiful x
Never understood the 911 hype because all Porches look the same but damn that sound, I think I'm in love. Also why did I think Supercar Blondie was gonna show when I read "Alex" ?
Great car and great seeing Alex on auto trader channel
Followed him on his own channel and even then without driving amazing cars he made the vids entertaining
Well, after spending top dollar on “modernizing,” you should definitely feel amazing. As a bone-stock 89 3.2 owner, it is sad to lose one more original 911.
Alex AND Rory, Autotrader got some top talent to work with, nice.
Stunning! And what a great decision getting Alex on board
Fantastic Video - love your positive and enthusiatic vibes that shine through Alex !
Congrats Alex, Hold out your hand 🤝 Mate.
Check out his video with Richard Hammond, great insight to his journey thus far.
Big fan mate and well done🎉
Splendid car, splendid video. Absolutely infectious enthusiasm from Alex. …I think he liked it.
Oh a singer 911…oh wait 😂 good to see another blokes vision of what a reimagined 911 can look drive and feel like
Alex is doing a fantastic job presenting, much love!
Alex is doing a great job and the show got really interesting
Honestly this presenter is possibly the entertaining one i seen in the U.K
Love to see Alex here! I enjoyed it a lot
Alex is just so genuine its rare to find someone not just in this for the money. Him+Rory=W
Please 🙏 Let this be a sign of more Alex! Alex and Rory ftw 🙌🏽
That's a great review. Not to serious just a good honest review about how it feels. Great job Alex 👏
Alex Kirsten is a great addition to the channel. Good move AutoTrader!!!!
I was hoping it was going to have a supercharger sound, but that Centrifugal supercharger makes it sound turbo'd rather than supercharged... but it's still cool.
.
Would have loved to have heard it with a roots or twin screw (definitely not practical to add to a Porsche though, so I get it)
Brilliantly beautiful built machine🔥🔥🔥
LESSSSGO ALEX
I was never expecting Alex to be here. Welcome and well done 👍
The car was supremely fantastic until Alex revealed the price 😭😭 but great job on the reviews!
Nice video!! Good to see mr. Kersten on Auto trader🤪
Brilliant car. Great photography and sound. Thanks Autotrader
Great review! Love your enthusiasm.
as always, awesome collab!
Well presented and filmed but I prefer my 911s to be NA or Turbo. There's just something that jars about supercharging a 911. For the money I'd prefer a 993 based Kaege Retro. Nevertheless, I wish Theon well and hope the owner enjoys many happy miles.
Good lad Alex. Keeping it jiggy!!
Great to see little Alex has a new job. Well done mate. Nice video mate. Super Porshe. Ps..wears its plates? I know thats a public road, I know the road well....Lol
a car like that is my type of dream car
Wait Alex is on auto trader now??? Did I miss something
I'm absolutely loving it though, well done auto trader.
He quit Car Throttle and started his own channel 7 months ago, it's called Auto Alex, now he's a presenter at Auto Trader too
Let’s please keep everything authentic!
2:09
Intel: and so I took that personal.
This video screams “We the people don't want modern cars with modern car design. We want old car design with modern car technology.” And that's why companies like Theon exist.
RUF and 9FF both do similar, super fast, restomod stuff. Amazing....some of the quickest cars on the road.
My new dream car
Another beautiful 911 upgrade (soooo expensive, but if you’ve got the money, fill your boots!).
Looks like at least the third RUclips channel to use “Harry ‘EVO’ Metcalfe’s - not so secret - test route now (Harry + Number 27 + AutoTrader). I imagine the locals & the local constabulary will be keeping close tabs on vehicular activity now.
I love this new presenter
Great to see Alex here, more more!!!
Love Alex presenting keep it up
I got one itsy-bitsy question: How many 964s are left which are unmolested? Everyone seem to be modifying these...
Great to see Alex on auto trader you know 👏
Damn, didn’t expect to see Alex here. Liking the more serious tone
His voice still reminds me of Car Throttle
😂
First of all, Alex is a gem and I cannot express how happy I am to see him on AT. However, I'm massively sick of all these modernizations of classics going for half a million or more. Hard to get excited for something you can't afford.
I really like this car, inside and out and under the hood! Very elegant design that updates the original car tastefully. I like the Singer cars too, but compared to this they seem a bit OTT.
This host is a bit annoying, like watching a high school sophomore....however this latest Restomod is a thing of beauty!!!
I honestly don't know what else to say apart from I'm gutted I'm poor. And Alex doing a serious review is brilliant honestly this man can do no wrong at the moment. From this to auto alex. Brilliant fantastic amazing
superb review by Alex although hope his sore neck gets better
More from you Alex please fella! You're mint!!
This car sounds and looks absolutely EPIC!
I thought this was the predecessor to the 930? 😬 anyways, what a surprise to see Alex on here ☺️
Anyone else notice the Harry's Garage stretch of road there
Alex driving the same piece of road as Harry's Garage!
King ranch 911 💪💪
Finally a great hire 👍
Auto trader you guys really surprised everyone with Rory and now Alex, it fills a huge void that people craved having good presenters
Nice but it's already been done by two different people in L.A. Will there be any originals left at this rate. This does however appeal to my OCD. Another flavour of the air cooled Porsche 911.
Jeeeeeezzzzzz it's man like Alex
Alex should review all manual cars, then Rory should review all autos hahahhaa
I like this new wiser more grown up version of Alex!
What a cool review and presenter! Lovely car.
Wow alex in autotrader!!!!!!
Imagine the owner finding this dude used his car first.
Is this a one off for alex??
Alex is fantastic. Luv watching
Rory and Alex....Yesssssss.
Top gear eat your heart out - when's the series with the three of you ?
Come on Autotrader - think of the publicity!
Singer are not making any more of their backdate 911, based on the 964. That means companies like Theon will be recieving a lot of attention.
I can't see how someone can say that that reworked 964 looks original. It looks very much like a reworked earlier 911, but not like a 964 gen 911.
Looks very nice though.
that is one beautiful car.
such a beauty
Half a million dollars? What exactly cost 500k to make?
This lads like the village bike of car based RUclips channels
😅
@@AutoalexCars Not a bad thing, been watching your stuff since your video, Living with a Renault Twizy popped up in my recommendations
