Taylor messing with cars is always a great watch

[@TomoHawKzZ]

Honestly it motivates me seeing someone so knowledgeable and skilled with cars faff about and get covered in shit as much as I do 😂 also it's a really inspiring attitude to have to stay silly and keep it fun somehow

[@rg6982]

Whoever thought of having a second channel just for DIYs needs a pay rise! Great idea, love these vids

[@dinispaulino7512]

After a terribly exhausting and depressing week, I cannot stress enough how much this made my mood better. I absolutely love Taylor, he is such a laugh!😂 Definitley keep these videos coming, he is a great presenter as well!

[@TCCcompetition]

Hope you're ok mate

[@dinispaulino7512]

@@TCCcompetition Thanks, I'm ok, I'm just really tired.

[@doddacakes1974]

Will someone let car vertical know we get the idea

[@brkr3311]

Love these videos guys but please please make them longer! You could honestly show a more in depth side to the mechanics and it would be no less engaging and it would be just as entertaining because of how good you guys are! Plus it’s really annoying waiting for another upload to only get 15 mins 😂 Oh and Taylor Tuesdays and Taylor Thursdays should defo be a thing 😂 Love you guys ❤

[@GedPaul-z2g]

Totally agree never long enough please longer video’s 🙏🙏

[@AI-Records24]

I second this too, sometimes it’s a tad too simple. Taylor knows his stuff and is very good at explaining said stuff so it’d be nice to go more in depth with it all.

[@F1dude.]

Completely agree 👍 👍 ( 69 likes nice)

[@no9scrum]

The only thing i would add to these videos is a little more description for what each thing means or does… Gareth is incredible at it when hes on camera, he just quickly says what an LPG conversion actually is for the people who love the channel but aren’t as mechanically in the know… I suspect theres alot of people like me who are really interested in the auto world but are not coming from a background of knowledge… like i said, Gareth is the perfect example every time hes called in to help…

[@derekgrayjr]

10:43 - lmao, whoever added that sound effect deserves a cookie hahaha

[@georgeoliver8300]

This is becoming Taylor’s channel and I couldn’t be happier about it

[@-s3m-]

More Taylor & Rory videos as extra’s from time to time! Incredible Watch!

[@jordonsmith1371]

Taylor was the best addition to autoalex...the guys hilarious

[@CarObsession]

I'm really enjoying the fact Taylor gets the chance to do his own stuff on the V2 channel, long may it continue!

[@steveworld3457]

BMR Performance Ltd, Turner Hills, Crawley, Sussex are responsible for multiple ALPINA B3 manual conversion. Early 2018 I first visited them and there was a B3S 3.4 Touring converted to 6spd manual there… Come ‘22 group of us went to the Ring and the same B3S Touring & a B3 3.3 coupe present, both 6spd manual conversions by BMR Performance Ltd! Also responsible building two E39 M5 Tourings, so OEM you’d swear they were built by BMW in Dingolfing!

[@154RW]

When Taylor was taking down the transmission I'm sure that his Saturday night telling people to shut up and making funny noises😂😂

[@EmoryChurchil]

Love watching Taylor attempt mechanicing

[@joxer]

If that diff were a Torsen, then the opposite side wheel would turn in the same direction, no?

[@LordClunk]

Bit late now. But a Vauxhall Senator I had developed a gearbox fault that was untraceable. Turned out, the headlamp wiper fuse had blown. Apparently it was also the fuse for the gearbox brain. Maybe something on your car shared a fuse with the box?

[@JimCarreyyyy]

Invisible 993 in the background 🤫

[@jrd11297]

Has AutoAlex V2 just become Taylor’s channel? If so, I’m not mad at all - great content!

[@MatsGarage]

Just put this stuff out uncut and be shocked at how many of us will watch the whole thing from start to finish because watching you guys is easier than dealing with our own projects. :)

[@Kozza_-jc5xw]

If you actually gonna do the road trip to Poland, you'll see many many many many LPG conversions like that😂

[@frekouille5563]

Taylor getting exited like a kid makes want even more videos like this ! ☺️😂

[@70bonnevilleguy53]

The Porsche just chillin

[@Dunkelzeitgeist]

So the V2 channel is Taylor's now? I'm here for it!

[@benhigginson9763]

Love your videos guys, always make me chuckle. Is there a nail/screw in the offside rear or is it just a stone? It's a good job you have a tyre sponsor!!! Keep up the great content. 👍

[@acton909]

Great choice Taylor. Lovely car!

[@stefangrobler1874]

Roooaaawwwwy! …V2 very fast becoming my fav channel!

[@andrewkdkgeubru]

once again another video ive loved because of taylor! love the car taylor your certainly a lovely man that i always enjoy watching your 100% ment to be infront of a camera! thank you for the videos!

[@gavstenhouse8857]

More content needed these videos are too short 🙌🙌🙌

[@Dan-cf8yu]

we really wouldn't mind if your videos are simple longer and we're not always waiting for part 2 (....better known as "the part we never get" 😂)

[@denttrails5182]

WISH THE EPISODES WERE LONGER

[@melaniezimmermann-jv7th]

This is a wonderful configured and motorised car... A solid flywheel is an absolute mistake on such an automobile. 😉

[@karkarizkburi]

Loved the little F Bomb slip at the beginning 😅

[@manusk40]

I love the Northern Irish reg. Please don't change it

[@rneoman]

Had a 4.8 b10 e39, V8S. Really rare

[@Elkott]

Does Taylor have his own channel? I could watch him bodge cars for hours

[@AK.2425]

He dose actually but he only has a few shorts where he fell from a mobility scooter in the caravan challenge

[@brkr3311]

He defo needs to make his own videos even just vlogging his day to day stuff that we never see! Collecting cars and selling them on and preparing the unit etc, he would probably hit a Mil before Alex from doing hardly anything but being himself lol

[@5ebra1]

So just swap the gearbox and add a gear lever. A clutch pedal might be a good idea!

[@AM-xf8mu]

U know when its a bmw video itll be good

[@orrgazmo]

3:35 sn’t the UK in Europe? 😂

[@athalc]

Taylor drops so many f bombs you missed bleeping one😂

[@porkimond]

AM I a car guy? Yes I am. Do I like BMW? Yes I do. Do I own one? Yes I do. Did I find the right channel? Yes I did. Did I subscribed? Yes I did.

[@sanderbernsen]

Did Alex really say in the ad the engine melted away at the f430? The fire was at the front.

[@Goldieridesbike]

That Citroën BX makes me feel things.

[@willscars]

I see a 993 Porsche in the background there, did Alex already buy it?!

[@ChrisPatrick-q6k]

"some absolute Rocket has previously fitted this car with LPG"

[@betr8er896]

Nice catch mate, great car!

[@24GarrettFPS]

Legendary find.

[@RAGNAAAA]

Alex is rolling in it. And fair play!! He's give RORI and Taylor the v2 platform. Fair play alex 🎉

[@constantinbusse5482]

Guysss have you seen the 993?!

[@stefangrobler1874]

Ooh! Almost forgot… Taylor. Please send a post box address for your fans to send a jacket to, that you have to choose to wear. Wurth.. loose it! Every week you’ll have a new one. If you like it, re-produce and sell. I’d be glad to send one of my gran dads vintage racing jackets to you! 😊

[@Arcturuseyes]

What about your V12 Merc? Is that alive?

[@Gameovermam]

Ohhh what’s that on the white board behind Taylor at 10.50 and onwards ?

[@Arcturuseyes]

I'd love to see you mod a cool car to be the ultimate grand tourer, I love those cars, begin with a super saloon?

[@gadesindigo6503]

all the homies love Bruno

[@leekindell9937]

nice buy....great car for that kinda money, im jealous

[@KevinInQ]

e46 alpina has a happy face XD

[@Headline_Hunter]

Allow me to express an observation; I am merely stating facts. The episodes orchestrated by Taylor exhibit a notably superior level of intrigue, substance, and intellectual depth when compared to those featuring Alex. The latter tend to be conspicuously obnoxious, characterized by excessive volume and a penchant for low-quality humor. Alex seems to believe that the only method to attract an audience and garner attention is by indulging in self-deprecation and causing disarray among those in his proximity. His episodes manifest a dearth of coherence and structure. My earnest plea to Taylor is to continue producing content of this calibre and, if possible, consider assuming a more prominent role within the channel.

[@simonweston33]

How long until Taylor ‘does and Alex’ and goes off and does his own channel?

[@Arnie90]

Is anyone else starting to appreciate the V2 channel more than the original AutoAlex channel? 😛

[@Ben.g762]

I was just about to comment this exact thing!

[@bartjanflikkema]

It's great content indeed 👌🏻

[@w.s.alford6073]

Blasphemy but kind of agree

[@markhouston3404]

I feel like the v2 is for people who listen to the podcast. The committed who should be committed 😅

[@maybenot6075]

Yes because they upload more than once a week 👀

[@Sf_Mason]

Taylor has seriously good taste. E46 - yes B3.3? even better Manual swapped? .. perfect

[@toddcarter4210]

Taylor is an absolute legend! Keep this content coming

[@jamesrennie1227]

Tent

[@chickentonight22]

Always look forward to seeing Taylor, genuinely one of my favourite hosts

[@worstofficerdennis]

I feel like Alex and Taylor is the perfect mix for a channel like this. And Taylor turned out to be an amazing presenter! I love that he's getting his own videos like this, brilliant choice 👌

[@M539Restorations]

And that's how you perform exorcisms on an old BMW and remove the devil.

[@louissanderson719]

Love your channel man!

[@KHarHar]

Taylor is such a natural on camera, could watch this bloke doing his weekly shop and it would be entertaining (and possibly quite long...).

[@jamesrowe9563]

Anyone else notice the 911 which is the one Alex wants?

[@jackfalls1722]

The way Bruno walks in.... Yeah its got a Diff already mate🤣🤣 He knows his stuff!!

[@brkr3311]

He defo needs to make his own videos even just vlogging his day to day stuff that we never see! Collecting cars and selling them on and preparing the unit etc, he would probably hit a Mil before Alex from doing hardly anything but being himself lol

[@justincase2384]

I know Alex has had a bad back but surely Taylor’s will start hurting soon under the strain of carrying this channel

[@DEADPEDAL]

"AHH MY NEM IS BRUNO" got me REAL bad, my eyes are juicy hahaha

[@AshRowland]

LPG!!! Oh no!... who buys an Alpina and does that?? I was tempted to stop watching 🤣

[@shona5512]

There's nothing wrong with an LPG conversion. It's a little bit of extra weight and it's not pretty in the engine bay.. But if it's on a switch, you still get the performance you need on Petrol, and when you're driving a longer distance just switch over to LPG.. Who willingly pays more for fuel?? It's like the only drawback of a performance oriented car. LPG conversion removes that drawback.

[@AshRowland]

@@shona5512 I guess it would be cool to disguise the tank as a NOS bottle and to make all the hoses under the bonnet braided/coloured to help with the appearance of the install

[@shona5512]

@@AshRowland Yeah there's definitely ways to go about making it look nicer. Not that E46s have a nice looking engine bay to begin with. As with most post-2000s cars, it's mostly hidden by plastic covers.

[@bartjanflikkema]

Sits on couch, sees Taylor hitting his head into the tire, hears 'plunk', laughs like hell, 'plunks' head into wall behind him 😂 Great video 👌🏻

[@tunes4life]

That made me laugh so much as well 🤣🤣

[@fredericoespinoza]

ENGINE/GEARBOX The B3 3.3 engine is based on the S52B32 engine from the US-spec E36 M3 3.2 with 240 hp. The cylinder head and the single-VANOS system have more in common with the BMW M50 engine than any M-engine, with a regular M50 intake and hydraulic valve lifters. Alpina increased the bore to 86.4mm as well as a longer stroke (94mm). The cylinder head is tuned in traditional fashion as well a new exhaust manifold. Extremely light pistons as well as a newly developed crankshaft have been used in conjunction with a new torsional-vibration damper, sustaining permanent revs of up to 7200 rpm with ease. The engine produces 280 bhp at 6100 rpm and a torque of 335 Nm at 4300 rpm. The new B3 3.3 is also very frugal, only 9,9 litre/100 km in mixed driving conditions The standard gearbox is a Getrag six-speed unit, optionally a five-speed Switch-Tronic box is available.

[@aizazrehman5153]

Taylor's enthusiasm for rare BMWs just makes me so happy

[@mrslater121]

I love how much Alex has embraced this freedom with his new venture to push not only new channels but also new talent (oi oi). Alex is huge for the community for such a small man (who also slips the clutch).

[@marcbirchley2418]

Yes! We heard Taylor drop the F bomb... amazing! Always wanted some swearing in the show because they work on cars, it's comes hand in hand

[@steve_wins83]

Love it when you guys just film working on your cars and give little updates on the collections and stuff. Keep it up lads!

[@Legoblocks24]

More Taylor as the leading presenter please! Love his videos :)

[@vincenzosgarage]

[@thefamouseccles1827]

Sounds like a possible contender for your next Nurburgring visit. This time with machines you all have had some time to put some love into. Make it a yearly thing - a pilgrimage

[@mattsbeamer]

What a beautiful B3, can’t believe someone would put LPG on one! I do love an Alpina, I grew up with my father Alpina B12 (E32) back in the early 90s. Also my father was hoping to buy an E34 B10 Bi-turbo before the B12, when someone wrote of his E34 535iSe, but the salesman was to lazy to pull it out from the back of the showroom :) I look forward in seeing what happens next to this project. Keep up the good work. I love V2

[@ksiadz164]

LPG is cheaper to run and you get more power from it. It is bollocks that people in uk dont like LPG

[@johnmoruzzi7236]

Don’t dismiss LPG if it makes the car more usable and therefore enjoyable… get it checked and improve the installation, it may have been a Lithuanian lock-up job. And the tanks only have a 10 year lifespan or something before they need replacement.

[@bss325i]

BMR in Kent have not converted E46 Alpina B3’s from auto to manual! BMR in Crawley have converted 3 E46 Alpina B3’s from auto to manual, more than anyone else in the UK!
