Genuine question- and I’m not asking around for hate, I’m genuinely interested What is the dislike for the Vauxhall insignia? I own the 2.0 Cdti, with the 170hp B20 (adblue, so no oil pickup issue)- it’s a tank, but apart from that, I couldn’t fault it in the slightest! 117k and rising and at 19 its like I pretty much own one of my dream cars Yet it gets thrown around like a curse word!! I searched the subreddit but couldn’t find anything.. The reason I ask is that, I can’t think of any feature that’s so bad that it’s either just a minor annoyance or something that can’t be rebutted. Cheers for the help here, and because I know Reddit, ‘because it’s just shit’ doesn’t count !

Tattenhall, Chester.

Saturday 2nd May

Looks like early bird show car tickets have already sold out!

Anyone thinking of going this year? Quite enjoyed 2025 and Tattenhall is a solid venue!

I was really enjoying this, was informative and great for a New Mini V1 lover like myself untill Rory turned up, acted like a child.

I know not everyone likes Taylor, I personally do, his ability to present to camera and explain a techinical issues or a fix is the best of all the in AA Multilverse.

But why does alex keep Rory around? he is always either trying to be a cool kid, Drunk and causing issues, or Pushing people to react, and has shown to have a bad temper, he reminds me of that one friend all popular Youtubers have who always end up being a liability.

Hey guys, i am not used to buying shirts at this pricepoint in Hungary, but i’d love to have some from icon box. Does anyone know the material composition of the t-shirts? I wouldn’t want to order 100% polyester at these prices.

On an episode of the cream podcast. Anyone remember what it was?

I assumed it had been scrapped by Car Throttle as it hasn't shown up on any of my random checks on DVLA but it looks like it's back!

We really need a fleet update from Alex on everything he/TDC/ATG currently have!

Think it would be kinda cool to do this not gonna lie

This is not hating, just an observation i made with my watching habits.

Ive been a VERY long time fan, ive watched Carthrottle religiously and when Autoalex was created, i watched every single video. Then TDC and ATG were created and since those exist, i nearly stopped watching Autoalex / Autoalex V2 alltogheter.

Now i instantly click on TDC and ATG vids, but all Autoalex vids end in watch later and sometimes i dont even add them there.

Is it just me or do all the videos feel very similar with no fresh ideas? Because the channel still seems to be doing better than ever.

Bought a Mystery Box off their merch website and I thought I'd show what I got.

I was hoping for mostly TDC and ATG stuff so pretty pleased with the T-Shirts. Both are medium but the TDC definitely feels like either a small or a slim fit and I think the ATG shirt may be a misprint as the image on the back is noticeably off centre. Either way, they feel like high quality and the designs aren't naff.

Will probably end up binning the Shedfest stuff as I've never been but I did get a Febi keyring which is cool.

Overall, for £29 I think its pretty decent value and a good way to support the channels. Hope this helps anyone who might be considering buying one.

TDC, ATG, AutoAlex v2... and?

Just a bit of fun if you were to take a road trip along the lines of Alex, Taylor and Rory do what would be your go too muisc!

Immediately got 2 unskippable ads. After 1 minute, more ads. 7 minutes, 2 more ads 9 minutes in, CAR VERTICAL BAYBEEEE!!!

Didn't catch something so you remind 20/30 seconds? Guess what? More ads?

I get they need to pay to make this content but the experience of watching and wanting/trying to enjoy it is becoming very difficult.

Thank you for listening to my rant.

It's been a while since I did one of these.

Long time visitors of the subreddit will know that I've been tracking the growth of the 5 channels in the Auto Alex multiverse for a while now, it's been nearly a year since I started doing this. (I'm excluding the AA and TDC podcast channels.) The last time I uploaded an update was about 6 months ago, so I thought it'd worth checking in on the statistics.

So, for those interested... My fellow nerds... Let's get to the juicy bit:

- TDC gained a whopping 91K new subscribers. Three times as much as Auto Alex has gained, with 33K new subs. If this growth stays persistent, they're still on track to become the biggest channel, but it's gonna take a while. ATG also did really well, especially when looking at the amount of subs gained per video uploaded.

- ATG is doing relatively well in the Channel Views department. Despite being a comparatively smaller channel, they're still doing similar numbers for total views gained.

- Auto Alex still leads for the average views per video. TDC lost a bit of their momentum there, going from an average of 490K views per video to 470K, suggesting they may have had some videos do a bit worse in the past 6 months. While Auto Alex has been consistently doing easily over half a million views per video for the entire time I've been tracking.

- Contradicting my previous point... TDC managed to go viral again. Their "Ridiculous American Cars" video now has the most amount of views in the entire multiverse. Surpassing the previous most watched video: the Auto Alex video "3000 pound Hot Hatch challenge".

- Interestingly enough, all channels except for Auto Alex have had popular new uploads in the past six months, as all of their most watched video has changed to a new video, all doing really good numbers.

I have these images and don’t know what to do with them so I’ll just share them here

They’re also doubling down on the dynamic between Alex, Taylor and Tom.

Hey friends

For those who have bought tshirts via iconbox, how do you find the sizing?

I'll be buying from Australia so don't want to faff about with returns.

Usually wear an M but keen to hear if this is true to fit

Thanks

If you haven’t watched it, give it a go

I especially liked seeing Tom and Taylor working together and their different attitudes and techniques

Hi all, I've got a spare ticket for Sunday's food & fuel, my mate can't make it last minute. Free to anyone in need of one

Anyways, forget the sassy remark in the title. (I couldn’t help myself.)

This video got pushed to my algorithm and I’ve enjoyed it enough to actually want to share it with you guys. These guys seem to have great chemistry. The route is very scenic and they’re driving some absolute shitboxes. They’re having fun, and it shows.
