Alex bought Felix the RX8 from me when I was buying and selling RX8's. Came with his Mum and his dog when he came to see the car. Not sure if it was Maise as a few years ago now. Was good to then watch the prep and engine rebuild series on Car Throttle. Nice guy, Alex and deserves the success he's having with Autoalex. 👏

@@anonysend6532 I really don’t understand why anyone uses it at all there are several reputable checks available for a fraction of the price. The only USP they have are photos of previous write offs which never appear whenever any KZbinr does one, and what do the photos matter anyway? They don’t. If you are buying a cat N or S and know you are you don’t care, and if you do an HPI and find out a car you want is a write off and you didn’t know then you aren’t going to buy it. It’s not as good of a USP as they think it is.

After promising it for a while, this is the video where this channel has cracked the big time, in terms of 2000's Top Gear (not the later failed versions). Congrats lads, top entertainment. You just bested the BBC in my humble opinion, without the licence fee budget.

[@TheStruggleBus43]

I was so excited for this series I was worried it'd be disappointing. Turned out I was right to be excited. Genuinely didn't want the episode to end I don't like new people being added to content but Tom is naturally entertaining and Rory fits in so well as the third musketeer. I demand you never stop making these videos

[@michelangeloboldri9893]

So, why is the Brera in the "unreliable car" category? Those have issues with power steering reservoir ( the part was later updated I think) the M32 gerarbox ( which was substituted with an updated Fiat gearbox that goes back to 147/156/GT days and was much better than that getrag box) and maybe front subrame rusting ( but not the whole car, usually). That seems like less issues than a Passat from the same era?
