Kamikoto rip-off! kzhead.info/sun/gtSLftWSgYKGdaM/bejne.html 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
@@owenanderson9139 Yeah but everyone would stop watching Alexs channel and just watch Taylors lmao
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 😂
The "hasn't hung up the phone" bit had me rolling 😂. We've all been there lol
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
These are the videos we truly cherish🙌
Yes
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.
“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…
Adding extra videos in the week is a great little bonus.
‘What is your opinion on the Mini Clubman?’ ‘No’ ‘good answer’ instantly🤣🤣🤣
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.
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? 👀
I like Rory, he puts up with so much “loveliness” from you Alex 😂😂
"Never bought from a pirate before" "He's still on the phone" 😂
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.
That e61 in Oxford Green is stunning.
Really loving the way the channel is moving! Great laughs and chemistry
Recently found your channel and I have to say, you Brit’s make the best car content on the planet. Keep it up!
Taylor is amazing. Rory is alright I guess. Alex is short.
Channel review😂
Omg how good is Taylor. He needs to be in every video from now on.
amen
I love the enthusiasm of the group when it comes to finding cars
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!
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 🤣
I see that Buick Roadmaster behind them at 22:40. What a beautiful land barge.
Great vid! Bit gutted you guys didn't go for the 159 SW though, what a looker 😍
Love all the lower budget videos. Fantastic work
Taylor is such fun! Love this guy! And Alex of course😅 Love the new content. Keep up the good work
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.
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.
Love both Alex & Taylor 💪 best duo!
Honestly my favorite channel Great job guys 💙
The moment I saw Alex in a chef's hat I decided to watch the sponsor segment lmao
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!!
Shame the 159 wasn't picked up! Hope you enjoy the touring Chris 💪
Really enjoying these videos makes my day
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
Just get Taylor to make every phone call from this point onwards, always cracks me up 🤣
I think I nearly died at the pirate bit 😂
Rory should get a medal for withstanding all your shenanigans :)) he's a really good camera operator! Big ups man
Love these videos. Keep the good content coming
Rory is the new Ethan! Another great video Alex and Co, keep it up! 😎
Alex: Hmm it needs new spark plugs Taylor: Hey it sounds great 😂😂
first video i’ve seen from you alex and i’m hooked subbed and will be binge watching after work 🤝🤝
I watch tons of KZhead and I mean TONS. Alex, your videos are the only videos I take the time to like. Thanks for the content you make 😊
West kebab Ethan and Jack are the big things missing from this.
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.
Absolutely amazing to see thr cheap car challenge ( my favorite series )
I love the videos where you are searching for a new car, thanks for cheering me up!
Looking at chris then alex you can see the experience of being behind a camera. That come back at 3:49 was just genius 👌
NEW VIDEO? LETS GOOOOOO Btw love these challenges Alex!
The more I watch. Then more I love this channel. Thank you guys
Love these challenges👌🔥😎😅👏 Congrats Chris with the new daily car🥳
Challenge videos are the one ⛽🔋
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.
Fun from Start to finish thanks guys
Brilliant content as always, best channel on KZhead 👍
haha taylor always makes me laugh nice to see him in another video
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...
Everyone needs friends like this, great video.
Chris is so simple it’s hilarious 🤣🤣 I would’ve took the blue one straight back on a trailer
Brilliant content Alex, well done to you all. Taylor is an absolute natural at this. Would love to know what happened to the blue BMW?
Yeah, did Sterling cars take it back?
Would love to know as well
Looked maybe head gasket but that is unusual on that engine I think. Didn't sound like the usual chain or chain guides/tensioner fail
They got a full refund on it
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!
love these type of videos
Quality entertainment - keep it coming!
I'm still laughing 🤣. Great video and a great team.
Crow!! I'd take that jaguar estate!! We never got those here in Canada 🇨🇦
This channel is pure organised chaos.. and I love it 😂😂😂😂😂
@6:33... That Aussie Ford Fairlane is lost! Definitely didn't expect that car to pop up 😂
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.
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!
Every one loves taylor that is actually very true. He's my spirit animal
Woah upload on a Sunday evening!!! Brilliant!!!
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.
Awesome video again. Imagining this channel without Taylor is becoming near impossible now.
Well done boys...well done indeed, I wonder 🤔 if they brought those diesel wagons to the states... I love that body style 5 series
Is that a fiat coupe in the background with its headlights out!? Great vid as ever! And we love Rory!😜✌️
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
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.
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!
Love these sort off videos wish I had 2000 to get a new car after the clutch went on mine keep up the good videos.
Alfa 159 are an awesome car. Suppose the BMW will have to do. Love your work 👍
The red Alfa would have been a more reliable choice
I like Chris’s humour. Would like to see him in more videos
Taylor in the video means it’s a must watch. Roree you’re good too. 🤟
Does Taylor have a channel? Would be cool to watch his wheelings and dealings
No way! Chris had a 145 cloverleaf. I’m 23 and I have a 145 cloverleaf. Chris is an absolute G
I swear this channel was at 300k a couple of months ago.. you're doing numbers
Thanks for the chuckle, oh and try and score a T5 ovloV some time soon.
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
I guess Rory got those rear lights after all then!
That's a great find for the price. I was in the same boat and almost went down the Alfa 159 estate route but the deal fell through last minute and I ended up with a Honda Accord Tourer instead. Great car that is though, did me well so far
this is the only channel that i watch the sponsors on, so entertaining
That's a bargain for a car with full dealer history and looks like it was well cared for and it's got a bigger engine
Alex, thank you son for this. Can we al have an update on the s80 ?
Nice video, this S4 B5 ride was cool. Want to see some more content with it.
I've had to re watch this three times now as you keep losing me on the stake sandwich mmmmmm. So hungry and soo full of flu. Thank you for keeping me going, guys. Wicked episode yet again.
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
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 🤔
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
