Loving the journey of Ethan becoming a car guy against his will.

It's his job, he gets paid to do it. Comedy aside, there is only so long he can play up being the non car guy as he should be learning along the way.

I'm guessing the UK has the system where the car insurance is attached to the car and the person driving rather than just the car. Where I live insurance is valid to anyone driving the car.

@@unknownmenace1957 yes you have to be insured to drive the specific car. Unless you have insurance on another vehicle that you own in which case most companies will allow you to drive another vehicle (not owned by you) third party only as long as that other car is insured by someone else. If you are 25 or over, that is. Ok, someone please jump in and explain what I've just said with better wording 😂

@@mikeh2006 I know the system as I've been to countries that have it. But I don't think you could drive any car as long as you had two insured. Though in all honesty, I hadn't stayed there long enough to have to even worry about insurance in two separate cars much less about driving random peoples cars.
That was brilliant. These 'non-car guy' episodes make me laugh so hard. Please keep them coming!!!! I was having a shit day and i haven't stopped smiling for a good 15 minutes now. Ethan is slowly becoming the man he wished he never was.
He’s so absolutely hopeless it’s actually incredibly entertaining. More please! Get him driving too, if his driving is any worse than his presentation style that’s going to be hilarious

That was the best car review I’ve ever seen in my life. Hilarious!! Please bring this guy back!!!!
I'll level with you guys and I don't say this lightly, this was the most entertaining review I've ever seen
These are the types of videos to watch 😁
Need a lot more of these...

Love the duet review where one pretends not to know. Breaks up the same thing that every other reviewer does.
This was hilarious!! One of the best videos on this channel!!
Loved it! Very refreshing format!
This is your best review till date!
So jealous of you guys, wish we still got the tourings here in the states
I reckon deep down Ethan is the ultimate car guy.. disguised as a non car guy. We’re all just waiting for him to ‘come out’

@@hayyaananwar7856 Here in Sweden it's not that bad, at least we get to pay the "normal" prices. But either way, it's still expensive. And it doesn't help that we pay about 10000 Swedish krona per year on average for new cars in tax. Especially if it's a diesel like that BMW. The Swedish state really hates diesels. In fact you're not allowed to drive in to the centre of Stockholm att all in a car with less than euro 5 emissions standard.
Difficult to tell if they're pretending to be awkward at reviews and idiots, or if they really are awkward at reviews and idiots. I'm going for the latter.

Great to see this kind of content from CT again and great subject; a cool BMW turbo diesel - just love that BMW know how to make brilliant TD engines. And yes, please more non-car guy reviews and more BMW reviews, both new and classic ones.
Way to go Ethan! More of this please

Best car review I've seen in years. Managed to hit pretty much every cliché and I didn't mind a bit. 👍
Carry on with this concept non car guy reviews As a part time car guy its nice to see Ethan point out things i don’t know on a new car
I think we all want more of these videos, they're hilarious!
Brilliant video as always, you guys are so down to earth and realistic, don't take yourselves too seriously, it's what makes you relatable to your audience as normal people and I think its the secret to your success. Don't change guys 👍
PLEASE do more of these.
Absulutely love it!) This format is a complete something else! We have seen many funny tries of a stupid car guy making a car review- now it's time for a smart non car guy, and this looks really fresh! No car specialist, no skilled utilitarian car user, no typical car consumer- it is something in between and nothing close! And together with Alex's remarks this is a true informative car review at the end. Guys, thank you and keep going! (Of course it would be great to see new track built projects or restorations with Gareth- don't lose that format too!)
I enjoyed this lots more than expected
I had an f30 335d and it was an absolute beast so this must be next level, can’t wait until i can get my hands on one
