Imagine driving by and seeing Alex doing his intro in the hard shoulder xD

[simonpowell]

Not that it's much use now. For reference, hold the select button on gear leaver and press the start/stop button. It will complain about the gear box and offer to put it into neutral. That's how I got my 2011 F11 to move after the cam chain failed.

I think taking the car out of park on a scissor jack may have been the stupidest thing I've seen on YouTube for a while 😂😂 A little bit of rolling and Taylor would've had the flat stomach he's always wanted

[jvmiata]

@13:35 I think it's absolutely insane that the level of restoration Miles has had within the last 5 years, and the almost new paint is already bubbling with rust.

[Black_Templar_Marshal]

Please Taylor don’t go under a car while using a scissor jack again

[joemacleod-iredale]

TDC’s Cadillac would make a splendid daily!

[cvwright]

Ok, I like you guys and know you’re both not stupid(ish). But please please never fucking do what Taylor did and go UNDER a car on a scissor jack. Nothing is worth that risk.

[royfrewer]

"I love this car " just not enough to put oil in it 😂😅😂😅

[RayTheFPSGamer]

If you're looking for a new daily driver and care about safety for your newborn how about a Volvo V60? It's safe, practical, can be fast (if you get the more powerful models), reliable, comfortable, relatively economical

[gitaarmovies]

The N57 is a very, very reliable engine if you take care of it, especially the single turbo variants. Sounds like you might have a high pressure diesel pump issue or timing chain. If you fix it, the car will easily bring you many more miles. My N57 currently has 400.000km on the clock, starts and runs every time, doesn’t use a drip of oil. Just change the oil every 12k miles at most and you’ll be golden

[JeremiBulakowski]

Whoa Alex, your oil interval really amazes me. Didn't know that there's a petrolhead really believing that oil in high output diesel can be changed every 15k miles or even further.

[tamasd]

If I'm not mistaken, every. single. BMW. has broken down under Alex and the crew.

[dronez]

Taylor just respawned into this timeline after he got crushed by a BMW in the last timeline.

[callumfosbraey]

Unrelated but i adore Taylor’s Omega Aqua Terra. Serious bit of kit and I love that he’s not too afraid to wear it whilst working on cars. He’s always got it on and I feel like it’s often unnoticed. beautiful. Alex’s Knut Gadd Cult Chrono is okay too.

[asimmalik]

I was in your shoes a few years ago Alex. Serial BMW owner but with a small child added to the family, unexpected and expensive repairs were something which were no longer on the menu. I decided a Lexus V8 was the best choice for reliability, whilst still being an interesting motor. After much research and scrolling through many car ads, I finally found and bought my V8 barge. A BMW 550i 😁.

[Bauwowwow]

Skoda Superb Laurent & Klement - huge, can be fast as fook with a good map and honestly one of the most comfortable cars ever made

[heed]

Superb 280 Laurin & Klement - megaspec, 5.5 0-60, understated and 35 mpg. Winning

[JoosySmooyay]

The way I winced when Taylor got under the car on that jack. I wouldn't even put my hand under the car like that lmao

[madloufos]

As a father of a 2 year old boy and a 2 year old Labrador retriever, I would highly recommend either a BMW F25 X3 2.0d/3.0d (the M sport suspension makes it a bit harsh) or if you need extra space then get a BMW F15 X5 3.0d/4.0d with the M Sport package but without the optional air springs. Both vehicles got 5 stars at the NCAP, which made me consider them in the first place as my personal vehicle when I needed to buy one.

[bene.]

I would not get under a car on a scissor jack and force it out of park for ANYBODY. Taylor is a good friend. With a bit of a death wish.
