You were right not to get carried away and bid. Sadly online auction bidding has been great for the auction house, but not for buyers. Better luck next time.

In big auction you can see when the people in the hall stop bidding, you saw it here as well they stopped at the true assesed value, if your online bid goes against some hall "opponent" bid then you're good to spend a little extra to secure the online buy, but ALWAYS second 3rd and 4th guess yourself because it might even be that those are the only gears working on a car you never seen.

Now there is only few channels to create 1. Auto Alex Podcast 2. Auto Alex Podcast Extras 3. Auto Alex Clips 4. Auto Alex Reacts 5. Auto Alex Shorts
When Alex is the person with some common sense, you know the market is f#@
Much respect for knowing when yere asses were kicked and especially at an auction it's not frustrating it's nearly heartbreaking when you find a gem and it goes mad like that, the market is really gone to shite
It would be interesting to see any "failed" videos on this channel, like videos that aren't good enough for the main channel, but still worth a watch.
I don't think that the result was fail. Shows common sense and that the online auctions nowadays are crazy. Can't wait to see your E30❤
Brilliant! People bidding who haven't a clue. Payed well over the odds. No keys no logbook no idea if it runs. Good buy 😂
Really enjoyed this video. It really captured the whole auction rollercoaster of emotions. Always good to hear more knowledge and insight from Taylor on the various models you encounter. Also, thank you for shooting/uploading in 60fps, albeit a minor personal preference, I feel it also added to the rawness.
A little while back on the e30 reddit, there was some discussion on rust on e30 roofs and basically it came down to that you have to be really really careful when purchasing an e30 with a rusty roof. I didn’t believe it initially but eventually the other guy really made a good statement. Comes down to that you might need to replace the complete roof, which is incredibly hard. 10k is waaaaay too much for this car…

@@bigduphusaj162 I don't know about e30 pricing in the UK but at least in my country a sorted 325i mtechII e30 coupe is like 25-30 grand minimum. This car is basically a massive gamble, definitely not junk though. You might get it running for "cheap" if you get lucky and make massive profit, or you might get stuck with it and it's worthless. But then again I have no clue what these are worth in the UK.
Alex and Taylor content never disappoints, you two could make watching paint dry interesting and funny

Why did i enjoy this video so much. Something about it being loke a "daily vlog" where nothing actualy went to plan made it still entertaining. Just to see what yous get up to on an average day
Well done, best lesson for anyone at an auction. The car was a possible basket case at top dolla. Max risks.
I think the days of getting a bargain at auction are gone with the amount of wild online bids.
More taylor is always good 👍 great stuff always laughing outloud!
I’d definitely love more stuff like auctions and some more down to earth stuff on Autoalex v2, it was really enjoyable and chilled watching you guys just walk around find some great cars, still having a laugh but yeah great content mate
Love the fact there’s a second channel and possibly more content?! Question, will content on this channel differ from the main channel?
Really enjoy watching your videos Alex, such a nice humble guy and Taylor was the perfect addition to the channels. Always a laugh!
"CAN I BUY A REPOSSESSED 80s LEGEND AT AUCTION?" No is the answer. Great start to a new channel😂 Seriously though, good fun to watch, informative, and at least you didn't get carried away and do something stupid just for the Tube-clout.
I fuckin love these auction videos alex!!! Start buying and selling together!!!!
This was a great watch. Well done guys 🧡
God I love these videos. I’m extremely jealous of the fun you must have making and producing content. Not doubting how hard you work at all, but you both look like you LOVE IT 👌🏻👌🏻

Always amazing content you guys ❤
finally the second channel is up and running, 'appy days
Please keep the auction ones coming!! two channels I'm loving it!!!!
Oooo, great first video on the second channel. Shame the E30 went for so much, would have been a nice addition to the channel. I’m sure another one will come around at a better price.
I love the way Taylor says "nice". Naurce.
More of Alex that is exactly what we need; subscribed!
Man like Alex, always good contents. Keep it up. Im waiting for my car Alex 😂
TWO channels now?? That is twice the fun. Dawg you guys are spoiling us.
Enjoyed this video, we need more of these!
Leave some channel space for the rest of us 🤪 Congrats on the growth man keep doing what you guys do best 👌
Brilliant Video TEAM 👍👍I was nervous watching you Guys at the Auction 😀😀
Alex is becoming the Richard Hammond of KZread. I can't scroll through it without seeing his adorable widdle mug everywhere!
YESSS 60FPS ALEX AND TAYLOR. Its so glorious 😊
Hell yeah dude, hyped for the podcast already
Not disappointed at all, you did the right thing in my opinion and did not allow auction fever to grab hold and live to regret it later.
Sold my E30 316i auto last year, had her for 30 years the lad that now owns her brought her up to show standard
Love the Chanel’s can’t wait for the podcast ❤
LOVE the E30. Not generally a massive BMW fan but these cars look so so good. I really love the MCM E30
Perfect way to use the second channel! Love it
I'm sure you contemplated not uploading this, but it was a brilliant, entertaining video and I'm glad you did
E30 is and always be a gem. As a body shop apprentice in 95, we had a sales rep called “Nele” she was sexy af and drove an f plate 325 sport(very well). She threw that thing around and I was besotted by her ( and the 3series )❤❤❤

can you not refer to a car as "she", "sexy", and that you were "besotted by her". what a little freak
Refreshing outcome - not just another look how much we spent or we bought a supercar for 10p video! - thanks for keeping it real!
Seeing the numbers shoot up like that makes me so happy as i have an E30. Although it has a TON of work done to it.
Glad there's more content!
😂 You guys make me smile!!! ❤
Best case that needs 10k spending on it, and its still a repo without any paperwork. Worst case the engine needs a load of work too and it owes someone WAAAAAAy more than its worth once done. Alex and Taylor in shock sensible not buying something shock!
Taylor is a great character. great video 2x👍
Taylor and Alex have shown they are actually sensible in this video. Good to see you vying on the side of caution because that would be a headache, unless the former owner bought it because he still has the history and the keys🤔
Cheers lads brilliant to watch best of luck in finding that e30 👍
Love this channel, its like the 'when things go wrong' channel
Keep it coming boys x

@@rich_edwards79 To be fair 9 times out of ten they usually get raced because they are too unfit to go back on the road hence why they put loads of work into them from welding to new panels, but never structurally safe for the road as they are rotten. Good ones they find they usually sort out and keep. I think it’s better to have their last stretch around a track than to be weighed straight in
That auctioneer was working in King's Lynn they sacked him apparently for quick hammering his mates
Great start to the channel on video number 1 ❤👍👍👍
I woud watch Alex and Taylor go to these auctions and just go around checking cars they have in stock, great content for me. V3 channel maybe? 🤔
Outstanding you guy's
Interesting stuff. Cheers fellas
One of the best looking cars ever, loved my e30 in the 90s
Nice to see one of these where you don’t actually end up buying the car. You both did well to resist. Head over heart. More realistic 👍🏼
Great video, as nice as it would've been to see it on the channel it went for silly money! Especially with over 155k miles on the clock 😳
Love it when Alex goes 'Desirable' then Taylor says 'Questionable'
Would this of been on the main channel if you won it? 🤣🤣🤣 good video!
Alex is so small 😂 love the content really!
Funnily enough, I have the key to an E30 but not the car. It was a 320i which belonged to my dad but he woke up one day back in the 90's a noticed he'd been relieved of it in the night.
The cosworth engined granadas were the later mk3 ones. It's really the only fastish ford of that era that prices are still reasonable
Good video.....Nice to see an auction outbid
An update on all your purchases and cars would be great 👍

As soon I saw the E30... my heart sank and I got all love sick for my old E30. By far the best car I ever owned. Been wanting to get another for I think 10 years now and just never able to :( I look forward to some E30 content.
These videos are looking mint 👌🏻
Manor park classics car auction is a great place to go next one in July they have a grey E30 in that auction
Would love to see some more Japanese cars Alex lots of hidden gems 💎
Well done on spotting all the faults. Someone else has mentioned South African built BMW's - worth looking into importing one?
That E30 325i was in K Koke/Maverick Sabre's music video for 'Turn Back' in 2011.
@autoalexcars Big upgrade on the 60fps content and new cameras from what I can see, less filmic but liking it. Direct sunlight is a bit of challenge to film in. Maybe a good excuse for hdr 🎉 Have you done a behind the scenes video yet?
7:01 love you to man 😂😂
nice cheeky little auction video
YAAAY!!! Subbed!
Just amazing even when you dont succeed, its an amazing video and tou put it online ;)
absolutely love e30s! im happy to share my journey with sunroof/ boot rust if you'd like? currently 24v swapping mine
Great video but I have to ask but why is this vid on the 2nd channel that meant for podcasts?
I'm glad that went for £10k. I don't want you guys sullying a genuine E30 325i Sport in Dolphin Grey. 😀 Sure it's strong money considering the condition, but went it's fixed and put right, no owner will regret having it in their garage. It's timeless.
Can’t wait to see the e30 touring u guys buy
E30 325i? N I C E ! ! Had one myself (E30 325i SE auto 4 door) same colour too. They can also rust away in the front foot wells (I had to get mine repaired around the throttle pedal area... LOVED IT, MISS IT DEARLY ! ! ! B R I L L I A N T C A R S ! ! ! Me? Jealous? 😈 Hahaha Oh IF ONLY I had the money I'd get one again, OR an E39 525/530D (LOVE them too). 😎🇬🇧
I very much appreciate the 60fps Alex!
That Granada would be nice, I miss my mark 2 saloon - I still have the recaro seats from it. So rare to see a Granada, nice cars with a v6. They are that rare, the banger racers use E-class mercs now, yet with a 4-pot frog-eye engine instead of a v6.
If car finance companies can do a fast track and get a logbook in their name surely balifs / debt recovery companies can get a logbook too.

You can apply for a V5C at the Post Office. I don't know why there is a common misconception that it is difficult. Dodged that one, the repair and replacement bills from just their cursory inspection was making it look uneconomical. But thats the price of nostalgia today.
