What you said about these knives included some lies and some gross exagerations that might as well be lies. Come on Alex, I thought you had some integrity!
21:41 I see a buick roadmaster estate wagon. Corvette lt1 power. Last of the large American wagons. Rwd
Its a scam
alex the smurf
Google the brand please. They're the Raycons of knives.
Taylor must stay for the entire duration of this channel 👍👍
He also needs his own channel
I completely agree we need more Taylor 🙏🙏🙏
It would be nice to keep Taylor around and involved. But I'm opting to letting Taylor choose for himself.
100% he’s hilarious
@@OwensRacingCorner Yeah but everyone would stop watching Alexs channel and just watch Taylors lmao
The 159 is almost 20 years old now and still looks amazing!
It looks better than Giulia.
I have one and i love it every day more and more
i cant beleve they took shitty bmw insted of alfa
@@moscowhq9978 I actually can believe. As much as Alfa looks better and cheaper in repairs, BMW is much more luxurious. We'll see how much it will take for it to break down again lol.
@@moscowhq9978 Alfa still has a very poor image and reputation since the change in management. Italian cars are also the lowest ranking on the reliability surveys. If maintained as demanded by the manual, German cars are far more reliable, but many people do not service their cars at all, and they all fall apart
The "hasn't hung up the phone" bit had me rolling 😂. We've all been there lol
The 159 is such a beautiful car. I would love to see you buy a 159 sportswagon. Its the exact example of a italian saloon in full beauty
Me too but don't get your hopes up when Mr meat is on as all he ever buys is bmws.
I had one of em and let me tell as beautiful as it is it's true what they say about Alfas. I had major problems nealry every month with this car and put about 3x what I paid into it before selling it
@@calvingaa9918 My dad had a 159 too. New timing chain. New steering rack. New rear suspension.
That was on a 4-year-old car between 23,000-30,000 miles. Thankfully all done under dealership used car warranty. He promptly punted it after the year warranty was up and bought a Mazda.
Fun fact - Alfa put the wrong grade of steering fluid in every 159 they made.
@@muckspreader1able well, BMWs are just very good cars. Sporty and luxurious. What do you want more ? And if you take care of them, they don’t necessarily have much problems either.
@@_carfreak_2812 Something Italian.
New challenge : buy a car from grindr!
Been there done that…
That can go down hill very fast..
@@louissanderson719 When they say "Meet me in the car park near the bushes" you have to worry slightly.
When you think you’re going to go buy a Ram from a guy on Grindr but you get rammed instead
@@bitchassmcgee9708 brilliant 😂
These are the videos we truly cherish🙌
Yes
Adding extra videos in the week is a great little bonus.
“I’ve never bought a car from a pirate before” whilst the guy was still on the phone 😂😂
Why the pirate reference?
@@elcasho Because the owner chipped it to give it more power.
@@filipeferreirac no. Because he had a Southampton accent
@@surviigecko7058 that sounds way more West…
How is it possible that 4 lads sat in a car going through car listings is a million times more entertaining than half the shit on TV? Bloody brilliant!!
Can’t believe Taylor realised it was an N47 engine, and they still went ahead with it
my first thought 🤨
And then it N47'd itself
I honestly can’t believe how many of those 2.0 diesels they bought
What’s so bad about N47?
@@jimdcars for starters the timing chain and guides are very delicate, also they are located behind the engine.
‘What is your opinion on the Mini Clubman?’ ‘No’ ‘good answer’ instantly🤣🤣🤣
Would have liked to see an Alfa on the channel. The 159 still looks great especially in TI spec
I'd take mine down for them to put on the channel
@@james1242xbl would you sell yours for 2 grand? 👀
Omg how good is Taylor. He needs to be in every video from now on.
amen
I like Rory, he puts up with so much “loveliness” from you Alex 😂😂
I was really hoping you'd get the alfa, love those 159s ❤️
To be honest, I was really hoping you'd buy an Alfa Romeo 159. I personally have one, and it is truly an amazing car. Makes driving fun, handling and suspension is on point. And if you take good care of it, contrary to popular opinion, it doesn't break down at all :D
Furthermore, in Poland, 159 drivers greet each other on the road with their hand :D. True car guys, love this comminity.
939 Alfas are amazing. I am looking to get Brera next year.
Recently found your channel and I have to say, you Brit’s make the best car content on the planet. Keep it up!
Should've got the 159!! Fantastic cars, I just sold mine (for another Alfa) and I do miss it. 20 years on and they still look modern, gorgeous things and the handling on my 1750 ti was amazing.
I love the enthusiasm of the group when it comes to finding cars
Chris is so simple it’s hilarious 🤣🤣 I would’ve took the blue one straight back on a trailer
I see that Buick Roadmaster behind them at 22:40. What a beautiful land barge.
@6:33... That Aussie Ford Fairlane is lost! Definitely didn't expect that car to pop up 😂
Taylor is amazing. Rory is alright I guess. Alex is short.
Channel review😂
Alex, Taylor and Rory. A trio like an old tv show some years ago..❤
The Chipmunks?
@@philtaylor1019 Pretty sure it was Charlie’s Angels
@@philtaylor1019 just with more bass in their voices
The 159 is one of my favourite cars, it was great to see Alfa's getting some love. The odd GTV with the 3.0 V6 pops up for a few grand now and then that would be awesome to see on the channel! We had the Phase 3 with the 3.2L it was a brilliant engine.
There is so much amazing cars when you go from a 1K budget, to 2K 😁
Yeah also horror storeys and big bills if you don’t know what your looking at 🤣
"Never bought from a pirate before"
"He's still on the phone" 😂
Rory should get a medal for withstanding all your shenanigans :)) he's a really good camera operator! Big ups man
Haven't had this much fun while watching a video for quite some time - this extra truly made my day guys, you're a cool gang - huge thanks! 😊
I want that Grillfather apron!
I haven't got through the whole clip yet, but I own a 2010 159 ti sw in red with the revised and improved 2.0 diesel. Hoping the Alfa makes it through! Mine is an absolute motorway mile muncher - people notice this car in their rear-view mirrors and move over just to see what car it is overtaking them!
Sadly they've gone for a stupid bmw again
I used to have the 2.0JTDm too. Fantastic car, I had no issues with it at all, until the handbrake failed! I still miss it...
C'mon guys :) You go for an e61 because alfas are unreliable, e61 goes up in smoke the very next day. Then what? You go for another e61, because alfas are unreliable :) My daily is 2007 159 SW 1.9 jts and during 3 years and ~38000 km all it asked for was front brake discs/pads, front wheel bearing and power steering pump.
@@Costantino718 well objectively the BMW is the better car. Both are not really reliable, but the BMW is sporty AND luxurious. The Alfa is just sporty and that’s it. The interior of the Alfa is not even comparable to the BMW.
@@gruzas2956 maybe you are just lucky. In general Alfas are definitely not more reliable than an BMW. If you look it up in the internet, Alfa Romeos do make quite a lot of problems. If you are lucky you got a good one, but most of them are far off beeing reliable. It’s the same for the BMW.
Just get Taylor to make every phone call from this point onwards, always cracks me up 🤣
I bought a car there with no fuel as well 🤣 Esso next door tho!!
" Iv never bought a car from a pirate " line of the bloody century 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That e61 in Oxford Green is stunning.
Appreciate how good you have it with the used car market, in Ireland you're currently looking at paying €1500-2000 for a high mileage Toyota Yaris from 2005, I'm not joking.
Really loving the way the channel is moving! Great laughs and chemistry
Great thing to do Alex, second car looks much cleaner. Never buy a car that is wet or in the dark, I've learnt that lesson after buying a car from a main dealer.
Definitely should have gone with the 2.4 5cyl Alfa estate. One of the best cars I’ve ever owned. Very rare in Australia and sadly mine was written off after hitting a kangaroo
What happened to the kangaroo...?
That has to be the most Australian way to crash a car haha
@@TermlessHGW a policeman came out and shot it. It was pretty mangled.
Looking at chris then alex you can see the experience of being behind a camera. That come back at 3:49 was just genius 👌
Great vid! Bit gutted you guys didn't go for the 159 SW though, what a looker 😍
Shame the 159 wasn't picked up! Hope you enjoy the touring Chris 💪
The moment I saw Alex in a chef's hat I decided to watch the sponsor segment lmao
I never thought 4 blokes sitting in a car trying to buy a car could be so entertaining!
Alex: Hmm it needs new spark plugs
Taylor: Hey it sounds great 😂😂
I watch tons of RUclips and I mean TONS. Alex, your videos are the only videos I take the time to like. Thanks for the content you make 😊
I think I nearly died at the pirate bit 😂
YESS love the B5 Audi S4 WAGON!!! He's already got the perfect daily! Mine's tuned and in perfect condition even going on 242,000 Miles!
West kebab Ethan and Jack are the big things missing from this.
Is that a fiat coupe in the background with its headlights out!? Great vid as ever! And we love Rory!😜✌️
So one of his main criteria was a car in an interesting color... And he ended up with a silver one. Good job, guys! 🤣
And skips the red Alfa...
This channel is pure organised chaos.. and I love it 😂😂😂😂😂
I wish we had more “estate” cars here in the U.S. Everyone loves SUVs and the really cool cars you get in Europe never get sold over here.
I like Chris’s humour. Would like to see him in more videos
DON'T SCRAP THE PASSAT
Yeah its sad but it being more than a parts doner wouldnt make any sense. Especially if the frame, engine or gearbox are done
@@DrBonesFolo Considering the frame is probably done both front and back, it's probably not worth fixing it. Which is a shame.
I've got parts!
Taylor is my favourite, he’s the funnest
I have an alfa 159 sedan 3.2 v6 q4 as my first car, and I have to say - it's amazing.
That is one hell of a first car!
@@basmca1 It sure is!
He got the rigth car in the end, with an inline 6, sweet! What an upgrade from a Passat! 🙂
How on earth are these cars so cheap in the UK? They'd be 10x the amount of money in the rest of Europe!
I've a 159 diesel for work I've put 40k miles on it this year and spent a tenner on a glowplug, great car and looks great
Alfa 159 are an awesome car. Suppose the BMW will have to do.
Love your work 👍
I know you didn’t say “Grindr probably” hahahahhahaha. I’m dying 😂😂😭😩
Love all the lower budget videos. Fantastic work
Omg!!!! Is that an RS4 that you guys are sitting in? Can we have some content about it ? Because it's one of my favourite Audi's and it looks mental. Really nice video as always. You are killing it
Excellent gesture, i love seeing things like this when mates help each other out really good to see well done boys, did you get your money back on the knackered one 👍🤣
I agree an update from the car sales man is needed
@@Dan-cf8yu definitely fella sold them a bag of crap and if he doesn't want a bad advert for his business he should sort the boys out
They got a full refund
@@kayakthelakes9770 that's great thanks very much
they should do considering it's a dealership
Hardly the advertisement sterling motors were after 😂😂 one to avoid!
I'd love to have friends like this, trying to buy my first car with no family or friends that know about cars is an absolute nightmare. Still searching for my 3k beast with history and reliability, thinking of a 2008+ Civic.
Good luck mate, My first car is a 2013 1.6 TDI Skoda Fabia estate, nothing special but reliable and good mpg... I hope you find a car that does you well.
2008 Civic 1.8 is really good, you should get one
Don't spend all your money on the vehicle. There will be unforseen stuff that comes up so set aside some cash for that
Nothing like getting your first car. My Corsa B was thirteen when I got her, and she was 22 when she finally needed to be put to rest
Look at Colt CZT’s :)
Thanks for the chuckle, oh and try and score a T5 ovloV some time soon.
Challenge videos are the one ⛽🔋
Great job guys...
Shame about the first replacement but you pulled through on the second.
Was kinda hoping for the yellow v70 in the thumbnail
850*
Awesome video again.
Imagining this channel without Taylor is becoming near impossible now.
Taylor should be part owner of this channel, alex and Taylor are both perfecr together
No way! Chris had a 145 cloverleaf. I’m 23 and I have a 145 cloverleaf. Chris is an absolute G
this is the only channel that i watch the sponsors on, so entertaining
Rory is the new Ethan! Another great video Alex and Co, keep it up! 😎
DESTINED FOR THE SCRAP YARD! It’s bumper is bent and light broke! My iPhone screen has a big scratch down it might as well throw it now😂
Bad advertising for that car sales place lol
I love the videos where you are searching for a new car, thanks for cheering me up!
I'm intrigued to know what happened with the first BMW. What went wrong with it? And, do you get a refund?
Head gasket i'd guess.
I'd also guess no refunds lol
Taylor at the end… “we need to get fuel and a Kit Kat”. Essential items 😂
I couldnt stop laughing for the fact that Chris didnt let his opinion be heard, everyone was choosing cars for the poor sod and was too scared to say no hahaha brilliant video
Ref the pie chart that I don't get a choice 😅 I actually found the first alfa, but I messed that up 🤔
The V50 would have been cool but a luxury diesel BMW with leather interior; wonderful!! And no apologies needed Alex, BMWs are nice.
I have a 159 2.4, had it for about 5 years, never had a problem, amazing car definitely recommend
Edit: they are appreciating in value now so it's a good time to buy one
the problem of BMW fanboys is that they don't consider that the Fiat engines themselves are very reliable (1.9jtd and 2.4jtd) certainly better than the N47
Very true, mine runs very smooth and you can get really good power out of the 2.4. It's soon to be at around 650nm torque and about 290-300hp
The 159 2.4 jtdm is a lot of fun but ours just had the engine blow up a month ago and when we repaired it after a while the crankshaft broke, last owner didn't really take care of it so the crankshaft bearing were all scuffed up and caused issues, they really need a lot of maintenance and care to keep running, don't buy it for someone who doesn't maintain his vehicules.
09:36 Chippenham is near Clarkson’s Farm? Clarkson’s Farm is in Chipping Norton, I know Chippenham and Chipping Norton sound similar but it’s about 50 miles away from Chippenham as the crow flies, 70 depending on the route you take. Aka nowhere near Clarkson’s.
M57 is a gem of an engine. No swirl flaps on the 25d, stage 1 266hp/555tq, 30d turbo and 35d injectors only for 360, pretty sweet.
I subscribed as soon as Alex went on his own. I love all videos but I can't help but think how much better it would be if Jack from Car Throttle made some appearances. Imagine Jack, Taylor, and Alex all in one show. Literally the best combination there could be??? Carlsberg don't make RUclips content but if they did....
Jack and Ethan would make a good trio but Taylor makes up for them with his comedy value and mechanical background. Without Alex car throttles recent content has been a little disappointing.
I swear this channel was at 300k a couple of months ago.. you're doing numbers
To quote mighty car mods Marty, that 520d goes "in the bin" 🤣
That's the same Passat at 0:32 from the "Can I Buy A Car & Beat Public Transport?" video from January!
it is indeed! Sad times :/
NEW VIDEO? LETS GOOOOOO Btw love these challenges Alex!
We all love Taylor……he’s got a wicked sense of humour, and he also gets the channels ethos, mad as f**k at the cheapest possible price……..lol 👍💪🇮🇲🤣
Love both Alex & Taylor 💪 best duo!
I'd say the series' about yr own cars are quite interesting (ignoring the exhaust swap on the XJR ;-) but those challenges on a budget are much more fun to watch!
I guess Rory got those rear lights after all then!
Chippenham is not near clarksons farm, I think you're thinking of Chipping Norton
The red Alfa would have been a more reliable choice
Chris gives off serious Michael Cera in “Scott Pilgrim” vibes 😂😂
Shame you guys didn’t went back to the 159, I think he would have proper felt in love.
That black Saab looked gorgeous 😛
"Rory, who no one likes"
i like rory.
