No wonder. Their videos are actually interesting and they are likeable.

Honestly, AutoAlex is dogshit now.
I still listen to the podcast as that’s usually alright and all they keep banging on about is how they’ve lost their way a bit, want to get back to create better videos etc etc, but then still keep churning out absolute shite
Both TDC and ATG are miles ahead.
If I was Taylor, I’d go it alone in honesty. I’d actually watch if he did proper builds over however many episodes rather than just one episode of him putting Febi parts and BC coilovers on an MX5 for the 17th time

They piss me off with the constant reading of circle jerk messages about how they make everyone not want to throw themselves off bridges.
Get off your own dick guys.
Oh dear oh dear!

That really doesn't look good on Taylor, went off them a while ago, but this guy having Taylor dead to rights with screenshots etc. will be a hard one to get out of. Risks undoing what they've built on the Alex channel if Taylor keeps doing business like that.

I think AutoAlex will be finished by summer, add this video the fact that their content has gone downhill loads over the past six months or so and it does look good.
He’s replied in the comments…this is going to rumble on I recon

I've not watched the video yet but I've said before he doesn't know what he's doing. A glorified AA mechanic who tried his hand at tarting cars up to flog on and only struck lucky because Alex liked him.

Is this seriously 2 grown men trying to out mental health impact themselves?
f**k me. Call each other a pair of c***s, exchange a couple of idle threats and crack on with life.
Whoppers like that squawking about “damaging their mental health” just diminishes those who are actually struggling with their mental health. Pair of plebs.
To be fair to this lad he was pointing out that the AA crew bleat on about how they help folk with mental health issues. Then f**k people around, hold back money and slander a small business to their audience…it’s not really the caring, cuddly persona of a business who gives a f**k about others mental health.
Otherwise I’d agree with you. But that’s the way this generation seem to deal with s**t! Blame it on mental health and hope that’s scares someone away. Pussies
Wow, what a bunch of sketchy c*nts.

"It really impacted my mental health" is the go-to when any YouTuber/influencer gets found out for doing something dodgy these days. They play it to try and win sympathy.
Having watched the video, it seems like the guy who did the work tried to be reasonable, but it was a mistake to open himself up to risk by trying to do them a favour. If I was working with a big channel like that, I'd want a contract in place with agreed deadlines and payment terms. They're big enough to be doing things professionally, not with handshakes and favours.

Two things
- Mr Cresswell needs to stop repeatedly saying “I was doing him a solid”
- He refers to Alex and co as old guys , even goes as far as to say they’re ancient. He can feck off with that s**t, I’ve got at least 10 years on all of them.

Was just about to come and post that video
I think he's nailed it tbh. I know a few people who have bought cars directly from Taylor. One of them had to spend £1500 on his E61 car less than 48 hours into ownership because it was fucked
He's a shady c**t and I bet every single one of their cars have proper bent MOTs, not just emissions or a squiffy bulb sort of stuff. I like watching All the gear and TDC but if they start to follow suit of the other c***s then they have no hope. If I was them I'd use the leg-up from Alex and move on whilst they still have a chance. AutoAlex is w**k these days, I haven't watched any of their most recent videos
I bet they still owe that Jooshy (proper s**t name, grow up) money so that's why he's gone onto do his own thing just filming himself on the drive

"It impacted my mental health."
"No, it impacted my mental health."
This generation of Youtubers are all the same, they all want something for nothing and all think they're gods gift. So so petty.

Ahhh I was wondering why he started doing his own videos.
Completely agree on the other parts. TDC and ATG move on asap, unless they are tied to a shitty contract which they possibly may be.

Hopefully TDC split off from that s**t show and start on their own.

By splitting the channels up. What they actually did was give all the good formats to TDC and ATG.
They left themselves with the dross which is just rinse and repeat. Then when they get called out, they acknowledge it, and just pedal the same s**t the next week.
TDC's view count is far batter even with half the subscribers.

When I heard an interview with the two from TDC, I got the sense that Alex pretty much owns them. They made it sound like they worked for him, but perhaps that was just the way it came across.
Translation, we're going to destroy a small business for calling us out.

Sounds like it’s gon get spicy
AutoAlex just needs to bin off Taylor. He’s a good presenter in front of the camera but from listening to the podcast and what not, he seems like such a liability. Whilst he’s at it, he can bin off Rory as well the fat wanker.

It took me a long time to get into AutoAlex content, on Drive tribe they just came across as a bunch of little pricks that were far too impressed with themselves, then when he setup on his own and left some of the dribblers behind his content got better and I got into it, then the dribblers also left and joined him on TDC and All the gear, I tried with the other blokes but I just don't like them.
I also thought Taylor was the best out of all of them, he's certainly a better presenter, now I think they're all pricks again and my original assessment of them was probably correct.

I think it would be difficult for Alex to sack him. He is probably the best part of his channel now…but he’s got to be on thin ice.
The problem AA has is he has just employed ‘mates’ yeah they all have a laugh. But who’s the big boy? Who’s the leader? Who is keeping s**t in check and actually doing the boring stuff? You’ve just got to look at the complete s**t show that was his ‘shed fest’ now this…looks like Rory is stepping up and taking a more back office role. But im not sure he’s the right guy from what I have seen of him on podcasts. He makes and argues some of his views as fact, when quite often he is talking absolute horseshit
Well fair play to him for holding his hands up and admitting fault, but the pessimist in my senses panic at losing his new found media career and trying to get ahead of it before he's back trying to scrape a living selling dodgy cars.
I'd like to think it's a genuine apology as I thought the bloke was the soundest out the lot of them, but I'm too old and too experienced in dealing with people that are full of sh*t to fully believe him.

It's probably as far from a genuine apology as you can get. It's damage limitation. I don't watch any of their videos but did watch the garage owners video posted on here.

Only have to look at the comment Taylor left under the video, clearly not apologetic and still denying what was quite clear from the screenshotted messages. Has suddenly gained more attention and they’re in full damage control.
Also looks like he deleted his comment on the video….

CLIO 197 CUP,
Taylor from Autoalex shafted a guy doing work on his E28 beemer. Mucked him about for over a year and called him an unreputable garage (or words to that effect on a podcast). Guys called him out and shown all about it. Causing the above apology but not apology
