For those wondering about location, this was filmed at the Rhigos mountain, literally where the South Wales Valleys meets the bottom of the Brecon Beacons. It’s one hell of a road (despite the potholes and surprise bumps) and that is a hell of a car. Absolutely well done Alex, I hope you love and cherish it, it’s so good to see you’ve been able to achieve your dream!!

Congratulations Alex, you deserve it brother. Loved coming on this automotive ride with you over the last few years. Now with yourself Taylor and Rory it seems like you have hit the sweet spot with your crew. Keep up all the hard work, and thanks for sharing your journey. Peace

Makes a change from BMW'S 😂 I love the 911 it is a beautiful car that drives so well. This trading up series is great.

this felt so much like an old school topgear review/segment that I was waiting for it to cut back to the live audience shot when it finished!

Congratulations! I'm in a similar situation. Just turned 40 earlier this year, and managed to buy my dream car with a 991.1 C2 a few months ago. Put quite a few miles on it already over several road trips. Plan to keep it forever, drive the hell out of it, and maintain it well. Enjoy! You've earned it!

Love the realness of this channel. A nice fella and his friends doing carstuff with cars from the period I love them the most. Great pick this 993, awesome color and a smart move to get a driver with miles so you can just add to them without having to second guess if you should, when it was a garage kept low mileage example. Could see the joy and emotion, very excited and happy for you Alex.

Amazing cinematography, spine-tingling noises and a man chuffed to bits with an amazing car. Bloody brilliant to watch! From the bottom of my heart, congratulations with achieving this boyhood dream and thanks for getting me and lots of others through tough times with your brilliant channel together with Taylor, Rory and the team. Keep them coming! Your videos are truly on par with the Top Gear glory days and dare I say it? Maybe some are even better

Alex the pleasure is all ours. Given far too many happy moments to me, so seeing you so happy and making such a beautiful video about your dream car is the best way to finish a week off. I’m glad we could “help” you, but you did more helping to far more people than you could ever realise. Once again congrats on achieving the dream many of us probably won’t. You fully deserve it and more 😊

Really enjoyed this video, have a 993 Turbo myself. The best thing about this video is you, mate. Your joy, enthusiasm and character. It’s contagious and I can’t wait to take out my car as soon as weather permits. Thanks for sharing of yourself.

Your trade up series deserves huge respect, you actually make an effort get cars to very good conditions and deal with problems and sort them rather than some who will buy a car give it a quick wash and sell for a huge profit

Congratulations!! I've been telling myself for about 15 years that when I'm 55 I will buy whatever my dream car is at the time. I'm 55 in August this year, and my dream car is a lexus lc500. I can't wait to feel like you do when you are driving that Porsche.

Absolute credit to you Alex, the passion and love was oozing and your emotions of driving that car across some quiet country roads in wales. I’d enjoy seeing more driving/review style videos, just going back to old school of enjoying a car and having a nice drive, even though the crazy things you come up with are great. It would be nice to have that split, brilliant content and I’ll support you and the channels and whatever else you do no matter what. Thank you for the content, the laughs and a place to enjoy cars.

Alex, I am genuinely happy to see you grow and achieve your dream goal! From Throttle House to this, I have been watching your content with so much excitement. Porsche 993, what can I say but what a fantastic machine! So much character in this car, I could not drool over this video’s shots of the car. Fantastic work, Alex! Proud of you

Absolutely inspiring video. Beautifully filmed and heart felt to watch. I’m genuinely so happy for you, such a beautiful car. Keep up the good work guys, you’re a credit to KZread! Also happy birthday Alex!

@@r016976 yeah the "money banked" in the intro was a load of nonsense. Any car you currently own is worth nothing until you actually sell it. Or rather what it's theoretically worth is meaningless.

What's great is being on the journey with you for all these years and seeing the dream come true, this is what it's all about. The visceral experience of classics and the smiles they put on our faces, the trials and tribulations we go through with them, they are an extended part of us enthusiasts. Congratulations Alex - Well deserved !! Also well done team for the beautiful filming, locations and choice of music in clips, the closest thing to OG Top Gear we are all ever going to continue experiencing. I think it's safe to say the challis has well and truly been handed down to the 'new' trio ;)

Iwas about to say lets take a moment to appreciate Rory's camera work but you beat me to it, was a great bit of filming. I'm just pleased that Alex bought a 993 and not a 996, the front of a 996 is horrible and the only 911 I would walk away from.

Achieving your dream is something to behold! You deserve every bit of it and can see how genuine it is on your face. Congrats man!

So pleased for you. I had a 993 Carrera 2 in 1995 when living in Germany. What a car! I had a commute that had a short stretch of unrestricted Autobahn on the way home. Changing down from 6th to third and running it from 60mph to 150mph was a daily occurrence. That chainsaw howl from the aircooled engine was intoxicating. Trying to drive it on summer tyres in the snow was quite amusing too - more time looking out the side windows than the windscreen...

First Richards STI, now Alex's 993.. love seeing people achieve their dream, and driving cars they genuenly love to drive. Its also fun to be along for the drive, just a conversation fueled by excitement, makes me want to do something like this myself

Been watching since day one and beyond, Project Phil days. Massive congratulations to you Alex and all the team, massive hard work behind the scenes and it shows. Amazing car and what a video. Here is to more to come in 2024!

Mate! Over the moon for ya. We all deserve some happiness in our lives, seeing your beaming face makes me smile and i can imagine your other viewers. Keep up the good work and please document your progress on any upgrades to it or repairs, I'll watch them all. Also a big thanks to everyone that helped Alex too, you're all really good friends. ❤❤☮☮✌✌

Congrats dude, lovely to see another Porsche on the channel! Excited to see what you do with this one 🤙

Fair play Alex, lovely to see your joy and the true expression of car passion I’ve not seen on KZread for years - whether it’s a Mini or Maserati the joy and passion is real, live your life!!

This is my favourite video of this channel, actual car loving, pure happiness and joy that can only be achieved by a car lover loving a car, its absolutely beautiful just perfect, this episode it reminds me of all the good reasons i love cars, and the reason i follow you, sometimes this channel is too much tom foolery, is good to see only alex sometimes like old car throttle days, and this is what we as a car community have to fight for, to make sure that we show that cars are not only a means of transportation and they cant take out freedom, our choice, our love for real cars, this passion that we have, its sad but if we have to fight for it, then we should because to anyone who ever worked hard and sacrificed a lot to have a car of their dreams, or feel the pain of letting a old mechanical friend go, the feelings, the emotions, its love, its impossible to describe, its only felt.

Incredible achievement. Watching you on KZread for years between car throttle and auto Alex and you deserve it! The hours of entertainment you’ve provided have been fantastic, even when you don’t feel like laughing you end up in knots. Thanks for all the laughs and well wear with the new car!

I dont think ive seen a youtuber more deserving of their dream car. We've watched you for close to a decade driving shitboxes daily while entertaining us all

Well done Alex. I’ve been following your car career since car throttle and I know you’ve mention once before about wanting to own a car like this. Congrats on finally achieving that and you’re so right on how long we all live for. Sometimes it’s worth to take that opportunity before it never comes back again. Love ya mate 👍🏻

Absolutely incredible! Soo happy for you Alex! The content you guys have been creating has been soo good! Always eagerly waiting for the next! Thank you 🙏

Love this! You looked so happy in the opening shot announcing it was your 993 - it was so wholesome! Keep up the great work and enjoy the car!

Hi Alex, What a lovely Porsche you've bagged! I've been watching your progress from Car Throttle right through to where you are now. To be honest it's not just Mike Brewer who knew you've got what it takes to make it, I think we all did, and it's still early days for you yet. Love your content, very entertaining, keep doing what you're doing Alex👍

I'm genuinely happy for you Alex! You seem like a top bloke, that deserves all the great things that have happened to you, all the opportunities, all the praise and nice comments! Keep up the hard and very good work that you do, and on to the next dream!

Love this! Super wholesome content! Congratulations man! ❤

Love to see another fellow car guy join the club in making his young self proud! I done it last year with my E30 and im glad to see you do it as well makes me honestly truly happy! Enjoy it and cherish this moment!

Some serious boy maths going on here with the speculative prices for the trading up cars, happy to see that we all do it lmao. Such a great buy Alex, enjoy it! So great to see. Looking forward to seeing those odometer readings rise.

Hands down Alex you have achieved what some of us can only dream of. The happiness in your face and voice says it all, and gives me joy just witnessing your progress. I can say that we are all waiting for plenty more videos from this. And of course a must on that mountain climb in 2nd and 3rd gear 😅, after you fix that oil leak of course

Hey Alex, huge congrats mate, you’re an inspiration to the true car-hearted among us, been a follower for many years, thank you for it all, keep going on adventures and share them with the world. But first, go and enjoy your achievement bro 💪 cheers from a fellow London based car lover

The smile on Alex's face is the exact same as mine was when I had finally got to the point where i could drive my dream car for the first time. Reminding me all the time on my back underneath the t2 was worth it. Glad to see the joy in your face Alex

Congrats! I've had mine for 23 years and love it to bits

Congratulations on this huge achievement! In my childhood a guy had one in the same exact color and I loved it so much. The video itself is perfect, brings back memories of the old top gear. Can't wait to see what the projects are for it.

Exactly how i felt when i got my Audi 4.2 s5 manual. Just the smile on my face constantly makes my day. Yes its not a b7 RS4 but it makes me happy and makes my life so joyful driving it and looking after it. Congrats Alex!!! My next step would be something similar to your 993

The smile on your face reminds me of my 18th birthday when we were on holiday on one of the Dutch Wadden isles. It was the first time I was allowed to drive on my own, and I spent the whole day definitely keeping my speed under the speed limit in our family's Skoda Octavia Combi, cruising around the island on my own. It was a feeling which I will never forget!

Absolutely fantastic video of a wonderful car! I'm looks forward to seeing the upcoming videos. Congratulations and happy belated birthday.

Absolutely fantastic video. I think this maybe your best yet Alex. Watching how much that means to you gives me goosebumps... legend.

One of the greatest videos on this channel so far. Its simplicity and the cinematic cuts and the right colour correction make it absolutely beautiful. Well done Rory well done boys.

Congratulations Alex, the 993 looks great 🎉 Big step up in filming too! Well done to the camera crew/editors, some lovely sequences.

i had a similar situation with my recently purchased e30 318is, wasnt even for sale anywhere, off a post on facebook got a message and it was the only one i went to view, and its absolutely amazing so far for the 2 weeks ive owned it, can fault a thing.

Congrats from Chicago on your new wheels. See, dreams do come true . Love your channel! Keep it going!

This is some of the most moving, high quality stuff you guys have put out. Well done to the whole team and congratulations to you, Alex.

Huge Congratulations. I think you’ve achieved many people’s childhood dreams there! If ever you need a Porsche specialist that I’ve always trusted, go to Dave and the team at RSR Independent. They’re small, but produce some amazing work and have some amazing experience between them all

I like car throttle and still watch regularly, but lets face it Alex, this may never have happened if you'd have stayed with CT. I am so so happy you had the balls to move off and start your own channel, and to see the gamble pay off with rewards like this, while seeing genuine happiness and gratitude fills me with nothing but joy. Enjoy every second of that beautiful motor mate, you deserve it!!

Finally! Ever since the podcast I was waiting for this video, although we got sneak peaks in other videos I was wondering about a full reveal video. So proud of you mate! Keep going! You are an inspiration!!

Congratulations mate. Always love your videos mate.

Best KZreadr ! Keep it up ! 👍

You genuinely deserve everything you have, and i cant wait to see you in a GT2 club sport some time soon.

I have to say, the cinematography is beautiful, I am guessing Rory, has done a fantastic job. Some of the best video content I have seen on KZread in ages, well done mate! Also gorgeous car Alex, Nigel has a similar shade of red to Phil's Mazda Soul Red.

Congratulations Alex, like many have said in the comments " you deserve it mate " You truly do mate. Enjoy and keep do you mate. You truly are an inspiration to so many. Even this grumpy old man. I thank you and the WHOLE team for fantastic times and good laughs with what has become for many of us as our home.

This is honestly the best car related video I’ve ever seen on KZread. The music, the cinematography, the editing it’s all 👌 Your words as well Alex are spot on we truly don’t know how long we’ve got left so life is for living. Keep up the amazing work!

Genuinely have the biggest grin on my face watching this. Hearing how much you’ve wanted one and seeing the absolute delight it gives you makes me happy….so I can only imagine what it does to you. Well done Alex. You frigging deserve it ❤️

Congrats Alex! Hearing you talk about your dream car while driving it at a rapid clip through the mountains is truly incredible, and everything you said echoes how I felt buying my own long-term dream car last year. The sound of a flat 6 that you've waited so much of your life to control is a truly special feeling (as I found out 6 months ago myself, a 3.3L unit in the front); I hope yours gives you many more trouble-free miles! Great car with a great personal story behind it; that's what it's all about, isn't it?

Massive congratulations Alex. Fair play to you squire for achieving your dreams. That smile says it all. I think we are all smiling alongside you. 😊

Couldn’t have happened to a better person, I’ve been watching since the days of Phil having his rust repaired. I can say that your videos are the reason I’ve ended up with the wacky, bunch of cars I currently own. Me and all my car friends of similar age have watched yourself since we were in school. Thank you for being such and inspiration

i hope the clutches are easy to change in these 😅 but also congrats

Wether you see this or not I just want to say a big congratulations on achieving this goal Alex, I’ve been a subscriber to your channel and seen it grow, always love tuning in to a video of yours but this video in particular has really connected with me. I drive a mk5 gti and it’s my pride and joy, I was passenger in the car for 2 years before i bought it. Walked to work and back for 6 months and saved most of my monthly minimum wage pay to buy it. The car is one of the few things that really makes me happy and although now 5 years later I have been in a very bad situation,the car is falling apart and roof being complete destroyed with laquer peel I’m scared to lose it, although I cannot upgrade it right now it lights me up inside just like you mentioned in this video and I have a strong sentimental attachment to it. So this video really connected with me! Once again man a big well done and congratulations and keep up the great work you guys. Please keep the content coming! Kind regards, Dan.

As a 1996 993 C2 owner (who does his own maintenance) the typical leaks are doable. The lower valve cover gaskets are the usual culprit coz they leak onto the heat exchangers. Timing chain covers and varioram resonace valve are other potentials. Also don't overlook some pillock who didn't tighten the smaller oil filter properly. Good luck! (Yes, that exhaust note is... sonorous!)

@methaniel Possible. However, I'd first check the age and condition of the three 'fan belts' (drive belts). If even one is iffy, you should replace all three. I've done this myself. Actually when they have all three off, and can thus spin the alternator freely, THAT will surely indicate the condition of the bearings, housing etc.

Well deserved Alex and really proud of you to achieve that dream and the car looks fantastic. Thanks for all the content you post.

What a triumph of a video. Really enjoyed watching this. Seeing someone fulfil their dream after years of hard work. Good for you Alex

Have to say Alex that's the best video I've ever seen you make!!👍I can feel your love and emotion for that car! (probably through your lack of pissing about! ...Lol)...I've been a fan of the 911 since I was a kid in the 70's and nothing comes close ( you can shove your BMWs Audis etc) and I can only dream of owning something like that so well done you!....You deserve it (lucky sod) just take care and look after it.

Nice to see how much it means to you, congratulations and enjoy the car. Looks very good, especially considering the mileage
