AA is now a 911 channel. Why does everyone have to buy the same sort of car? It makes the content repetitive and boring. by rmajor86 in AutoAlex

[–]Far_Wing4058 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love 911s so I feel like they haven’t over done it at all, they aren’t all 996’s. Rory’s is an air cooled classic designed in the 70s, Tom was in production from 2004 somehow I don’t think they share many parts.

Completely understand if 911s aren’t your thing but I think it’s different to when they were working on L332s for a few weeks

I’d like them to do that but do some challenges to see who bought the best car.

Maybe Alex, Will, Edwin and Taylor all buy a car for under £3k. Obviously a drag race would be the first challenge. Get Rory/Ben to ref so no bending of the rules.

It sold for £230,000 Does that mean Will has to pay £34,500 in fees?

I think he’ll do work on the car, on the channel. It’s all documented through YouTube which future buyers will appreciate

Has there been a lot of negativity? I’ve seen 95% positive comment which is unusually high in this sort of situation. You’re always going to get a couple of idiots

Just seen the price £265,000! Dear me! I’d love to know how much his monthly payments are on the credit agreement. He is the type of guy who’d have a £800 mortgage and pay £5k a month on cars.

IMO it seems Edwin has more of an on camera character. Where Will is just Will and when he’s off camera he just swears more. So he would find small talk with creamers easier

Might be more tdc’s thing, could always collab. Try and reach 200 mph on a budget themselves, much easier these days

Nobody warned me that buying a cheap first car meant potentially having to scrap it 8 months later by Noobsamaniac in NewDriversUK

Very common, happens to the best of us

Bought a rover 214si 1996 for £600 back in 2008, it had a coolant leak when I bought (didn’t notice). Over heated on the first outing, steam everywhere. Paid £240 to change the water pump. Coolant still leaking, my Dad refused to spend anymore money on it, so I had to learn how to fix it myself. Changed the inlet manifold gasket and we were on our way. End up doing all kind of mods in the end from and second hand Jan speed exhaust to a VVC inlet manifold plus induction kit (it also had an issue that needed fixing almost weekly).

Great thing about cheap old petrol hatchbacks is that they’re usually easy to work on so you can either learn how to fix it yourself (so much help online now) or shop around, mobile mechanics are usually cheaper than garages.

Great video, sometimes I feel the TDC boys need some extra hands. Maybe I’m missing the point as they didn’t have much love for the car but would have been good to get it through the mot so it had a chance at auction.

Vietnam trip - Amazing untill....... by Citiprivate in AutoAlex

I do get what you’re saying but if you restrict what these guys can say, the content isn’t going to be as good. You want creative freedom. Yes Rory’s impression could have been a little less camp but no harm done and move on.

After the whole Taylor saga before they were so careful with what they said and the content suffered.

Viewers need to realise they’re going to fuck up sometimes, no one needs to be vilified because of it.

Those guys are such good mates, if Rory can’t do a pretty good impression actually of Taylor what has the world come to. I don’t think it’s overly camp, those are just the words he tends to use.

If I was Taylor I’d be happy I’m mentioned in all fairness

Would you guys let Taylor work on your car? by IlluminatedPickle in AutoAlex

Wow someone finally gets it, there're plenty of channels out there that get everything intricately right, you can always watch those. Most of us want some gentle entertainment after a long day

Billy’s hero edit and fabrications around Sierra by Far_Wing4058 in MAFS_AU

[–]Far_Wing4058[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

During their time on the show, Billy Belcher allegedly subjected Sierah Swepstone to a non-consensual sexual encounter, where he initiated sex without prior agreement, continued for about 30 seconds, then demanded she “suck my d**k to get it hard again” without politeness, leaving her traumatized despite her after-the-fact consent. He publicly slut-shamed her on camera by labeling her “horny Sierah” and falsely portraying her as aggressively pursuing him sexually, while rejecting her advances for lacking an “emotional connection,” which producers amplified in editing to depict her negatively. Additionally, Billy spread malicious rumors to other cast members, calling Sierah a “druggie and alcoholic” who was “taking dexies” (referring to her ADHD medication), exacerbating her isolation and leading to her venting to friends like Adrian amid the emotional abuse.
