I think Alex needs a full on car transporter at this point, not a fleet of small trailers?

Taylor cleaning himself with quick detailer is probably the most car guy thing I've ever seen

I would love to see the S600 get fixed and running. That is too good of a vehicle to just scrap.

As a auto enthusiast, it pains me to say this: You may have a problem Alex

I think this is one of the best episodes in awhile. I would love to see full series dedicated to barn finds of just regular cars that you can bring back to life and get back on the road again. They don't need to be fancy or expensive but cars people in England and Europe used to drive every day and people miss them.

Taylor: “it’s not a dip stick it’s a sword” 😂 Alex’s Tom Lenthall impression is too funny. 😂

I am SO GLAD this series is back. Been really wanting to see what you were going to do with this and was beginning to think you had given up. Super excited to see this series continue and can't wait to see that 993! PS: Don't forget about your E30 touring too

Hopefully out of tragedy something positive will emerge. To the family, I'm sorry for your loss. Your dad was obviously a man of awesome taste. Great car collection!

I love Taylor’s positive attitude, never lose that as it’s rare and a superb quality.

I love how respectful you were throughout the entire episode. It does not go unnoticed ❤

absolutely prime autoalex content this lads

I think that S600 with that low miles is definitely worth a deeper dive video, seems to be a well optioned one too so even a good clean up and exploration would be pretty interesting. Wonder how far the recall goes on it, maybe the dealer will do the loom too if its covered?

Ah back to the norm! These are the episodes I love the most, old sheds (possibly) brought back to life!

Just started watching. The van and trailer must make up a big chunk of the £10,000, regardless of what the rest are like

The alarm noise on the MG F is the immobiliser. On most Rover/MGs of the 90s, press the unlock button on the key and the immobiliser will disengage.

Love this restoration stuff! I’m about to start today to get my old V70 back on the road. Needs a recon auto box, and power steering is leaking but once all that done should just need it’s MOT. Looking forward to the heated arm chair seats. Was going to sell for scrap on eBay until I sat in it, got it started and remembered what it was like on long journeys. I said to the wife my heart may be ruling my head but I couldn’t pass it on to someone else to have the joy of it……….I’m a sucker for bringing old stuff back to life so love it when you guys too! That jag? Lovely idea. But can’t see it without THOUSANDS being spent.

I love how Alex ties to hide his addiction for buying cars under the "trading up" series!! I suppose it comes in as a handy excuse with the Mrs! Well done

I absolutely loved this video, Alex's content just keeps gettinf better and better I'm with Taylor would love to see that Daimler back on the road

been waiting for this it was mentioned on the podcast Also the transporter must be Taylors new Van as it has his plate on it

PLEASE make a video on getting the Daimler running. That would be so cool seeing that old car work again.

What a title! Looking forward to this video. Calling it, high views on this one!!!

The S600 is definitely a big risk, but the color is absolutely georgeous. Very rare. The electric issues can be a really painful but also let`s not forget, that there is also another elefant in the room: the ABC-suspension and this could be really expensive. If the rust is not a big deal and the engine in good condition, it`s worth a try to get it back on the road. But the interior is also a challenge. I´m hyped for the next episodes. Good luck and greetings from Germany 😉

Nice episode guys, well done for helping out this family. It's so difficult when you have a situation like this. Last year I had to do the same for my Dad's collection which comprised of a Toyota Hilux, Caravan, a 1/4 scale working Burrell traction engine and a couple of trailers. They all went to great homes and it really helped with my Mum's peace of mind. Not easy but it was a job well done.

So now I'm all up to date, I have spent the past 5 days watching every single video on the channel from the start to this. I absolutely love the channel, and I absolutely love shitbox's. You guys are doing incredibly well, and I hope to see so much more! Hopefully next year I will be in Reading for work, I really would love to meet all of you, let me know of some great places in and around Reading for amazing meals and beer. For now, I have the V2 channel to catch up on, keep up the amazing work!

Alex yet again showing he has a heart and is a genuine gent.

Epic stuff, I think there’s a good chance you come out ahead on this one. The van + trailer is likely worth the asking price alone.

Taylor has to be the best addition to this channel

This is so weird seeing this barn on your channel. I snuck around in here whilst delivering rural parcels for Royal Mail in the Dorchester area last summer. There is so much stuff tucked away in rural Dorset. I have a small list of some barn finds I have found over the past couple of years locally. Awesome to see these cars finally getting a new home.

This is the content I subscribed for. Glad to see it back.

I'm excited for the next episode when Alex buys a semi-truck to carry around all the cars he's buying 😂

The Daimler and the Mercedes-Benz can be restored. Probably a project restoration for the Daimler by a specialist if not then spare parts. A terrific barn find. The VW would make a good day campervan or camera van for big Pete doesn't work.

Quality of videos has gone through the roof! You need to take that old Daimler to the Smallest Cog - Drivetribe collab perhaps??

That Daimler is gorgeous! I hope you get it running and driving, because what a machine that is!

that transporter is nice and probably most of the value in that collection, it would be cool to see what you could do with it

This is a great video! Love how much fun you had looking at these barn finds! It is also quite funny Alex is doing a heartfelt piece to camera and Taylor is just cleaning himself 😂

$10k car collection, most of the value is in the trailer. That good ol car collector's haul. Love it.

10 grand is a bloody good deal especially getting a VW Transporter which is worth a fair chunk of that money and by the look of it what Mark just needs a refresh and a clean good 4 to 5 grand there lol

2 videos this week what a dream

Man, I really like those daimlers! Also, you might not need to replace the wiring loom! On the w211 you replace a short part of the loom, with an additional inline plug that's leak proof. This stops the leak going any further. Cleaning out the ecu's usually gets them working again, and although the residue oil seeps out through use over the next year or so, you can just clean it off when it throws a code until it's all gone. So you might have to drive a v12 for a year before you sell it.

Condolences to the family who owned the cars 🙏🏻 Awesome video with amazing content. Can’t wait to see what happens with the new additions to the fleet 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Could you call this an automotive addiction already?

Alex Rory and Taylor, you’re all living the dream. As a currently unemployed car enthusiast i WISH I could be a part of this.

Hey alex, MG F Enthusiast here, i have owned several of these and the way to disarm the immobiliser is on the key fob, being rover/MG you have to make sure all the doors are closed including the frunk and the boot, lock the car with the key fob, unlock the car and put the key in the ignition, the little ALARM light in the centre of the Dash should go out indicating the immobiliser has been deactivated so it should turn over. Love the videos, cant wait to see your take on the little MG (the suspension is also a bit funky they use spheres filled with gas, make sure the spheres are not perished as this can cost a fair bit to replace but to get them pumped up you will need a specialist for. if there is no gas in the spheres you wont get the correct ride height making the car very low and scrape on everything)

I really want to see you get that 911 one day. Keep trading up Alex!

Just when you think this content can’t get any better you go and hit another home run fair play Alex and the boys keep up the good work

These videos just got better and better. Thank you Alex, I’m proud of you.

always impressed by Taylor’s diagnostic skills

I've been watching you guys for a while and this is one of my favourite episodes. I must admit to loving the Daimler 250 despite it needing a full resto. My best friend who recently died wanted an MGTF! I do love the K series engine, despite the obvious head gasket issues it's a brilliant engine.

First like is from me❤🎉. You are doing this great guys keep it up. Love from sri lanka❤

That daimler/jag is so exciting for me. My dad was a classic Jag mechanic for a long time and while I no longer have contact with him, he had a fully restored Mk1 in British Racing Green, body coloured wire wheels, with about 220 horse from i believe a 3.4L inline 6. It was built as a Hawthorn replica and was rapid!

The Daimler has potential. It's definitely the most interesting car out of the lot. Get it running, see what happens after.

No matter what happens with these cars, you've done a great thing for a family with a lot going on, good stuff Alex & co

I wanna see that S600 into its former glory. Those cars are so sleek, smooth to drive. It's so stylish for its era. Please restore this purple beauty.

The EGS control unit won't stop it starting. It's most likely the transmission plug seal leaking ATF. VERY common! Cheap and easy to fix. If you are definitely getting fuel to the injectors then I would start looking at the front SAM control units.

Really enjoyed this. Thanks . looking forward to the in depth look into the Mercedes

Alex paying tribute to the dad and Taylors just pumping away on the rapid detailer 😂

2 videos in a week? Amazing

Nice to see a Daimler V8! My old man had one for over 20 years...a very slow restoration project. Had the pleasure of driving it to the Goodwood Revival and then breaking down on the drive home in it and getting back home at midnight on the back of a low loader. Good times..

Oil in the wiring harness is not a massive issue. That’s happened to many other manufacturers over the years (BMW, Perkins, etc). Oil is an insulator don’t forget. Replacing the faulty sensor and just washing the harness connectors with isopropyl alcohol is all you need. Oil in the module is also not bad unless there are temp sensors or air pressure sensors inside - that’s where things go wrong. I’d love that Merc to be honest!!

Would love to see more episodes like this. A barn finds series would be amazing and fit nice and snug with your other content

Few tips for you trading cars. 1) scrap yards are very helpful places. 2) don’t buy Vauxhalls. Nobody buys them (plus they are crap) 3) smaller cars with smaller engines usually sell better seeing as they are cheaper for tax and insurance. Also more appealing for young drivers. 4) people carriers sell pretty well. No estates and saloons. They are usually more of a struggle. Thought I’d just share some of the info I know here but I’m sure Taylor knows what he’s doing. 🎉

Taylor casually detailing himself at the end is comedy gold.

Buzzing this series is back! Love a good trade up challenge :D!

I absolutely love the Barn finds! Once my friend In the garage had a 3 years sitting '89 e30 320i m20b20 with only 100k kms on the clock which is very weird in Egypt! Car is %100 stock and also had the original 320i badge on it, needed atleast 10k egp spent on it and would run as new 😍 Unfortunately I couldn't hear it as battery was dead, car obviously starts you can see the m20 m30 engines on youtube!

We gotta see and hear that V12 running and then getting straight piped 🤩 Great video👌

Never comment on things, but today i feel i must say thankyou guys for being brilliant and bringing me hours of smiles and laughs. Keep being you. Oh, good luck with that red pile of rust. Did a mk2 in that condition, the whole floor had to be replaced 😞

I love these vids Alex! You and Taylor are a laugh to watch, anyone else notice the top right brake light out on the transporter !?

Cant wait to see the progress on all of these. That little MG is such a peach. Would love to see it tarted up maybe as a road rally car and taken on track at the three sisters and Curborough. 🏎🏁

If you have something like the van, where the battery is really really low don't connect jumpers to it. It has a big voltage drop / draws power from your jumpers that can't be used to start the engine. This is probably why you needed so many jumpers. You're often better off disconnecting the battery and trying it with just the jumpers or another car/battery, because then you've got the whole power for the engine and not a majority for charging the death battery.

Look forward to seeing part 2 and the cars being brought back into use

the upload schedule is mad !!!! Thanks really needed this

We need a food review channel with Taylor.

Van to camper conversion next with that barn find van

This is why we love you bunch, taking huge risks for a good cause, proper proper good people

love that this series is back

Much prefer this sort of content to the "...and then we took it to the Nurburgring" stuff. I get that has a place, but this just seems much more organic and really brings out the chemistry and humanity of all involved.

Great job guys! One episode for each car would be great! Looking forward to some more content / the Supercock 😅

Another cracking video, you boys never disappoint, keep up the good work!

23:08 - It's Rendang - Which is Indonesian slow cooked beef curry. It's probably the nicest thing I've ever eaten, especially whilst in Indonesia itself.

23:15 - Beef Rendang is actually a common festive dish from South East Asia, especially Malaysia, Singapore & Indonesia.

MG Fs have gone up a bit the last few years. Good ones are north of 5k, rarer models (VVCs and Trophys) a bit more. Rough ones you can still get for grand. That one looks solid, probably around 2.5k with the timing belts done! They're great fun, I've had several now and in VVC flavour (dare I say it) I preferred it to my old MX5. Screaming up to 8000rpm in a tiny mid-engined car is a laugh! If you need parts I'd recommend DMGRS. They were extremely helpful!

Hey Alex, nice video, loving it🔥 If you do videos like this in the future where you see if a car can start, can you then please mount a mic to the camera? (I did not notice especially the mg had startede before I saw the faces of you guys;)

YES YES YES MORE OF THIS! Could this segway into a classic restoration project of its own?

I have two of those exact cat jump packs, used them for years and theyve never let me down. Can inflate a tyre from dead flat too

Finally, was waiting for this series.

I wonder if that Daimler will see a banger track or if Tom can get it to a restorer who will save it. It doesnt look in best condition but there might be hope depending on how crusty it is underneath

Yesss please keep this series going!!

Petition to get these guys as the new Top Gear crew

Really enjoyed this one. More footage of your trailer convoy and trailer reversing skills are requested! 😌

Podcast, videos, road trips, and three fools that rival Clarkson and the boys, well done! Cheers from Canada, where we know what a GTO is ;)

I see taylor has treated himself to the transporter lol looking forward to this series!

This was the best video yet. Keep up the great work

Taylor just genuinely dashboard spraying himself at the end XD

No matter how shit of a day I'm having, Taylor, Alex, and Rory, you chaps always make me laugh and brighten my day. Massive love

Thanks, John, for sharing your quirky collection!

Unreal Alex! Not to make you jealous but I bought my dream car recently at 29 years of age 🙈😂 87 325i sport m tech in dolphin grey with Alpina’s on 😎 can’t wait to see what you and Taylor do with your E30 Tourings! If you’re ever in Ireland hit me up. Top work as always 👊🏻❤️

Another fantastic series awaits us 😂👍🏻, cannot wait to hear and see these run again 👍🏻

Haha Taylor casually using McGuires tyre shine to clean up🙈😂 I use that stuff on my work boots! 23:53

Can't believe you guys were just up the road from me. Lots of cars for lots of intriguing content. I hope we get to see them all up and running and living on.
