The ice cream van would make a really good campavan conversion due to the height of the back. And those big windows! I want to see you do a drag race together.
Marley has to become the AutoAlex merch van! Pull up on the 28th and open for business! Terry can move your bikes around. Marley wins 😂 not laughed so much in ages! What happened to the trade up challenge?
We need to see you try and make ice creams while Taylor drives you around a track, and vice versa! This has been an absolute banger of an episode and 100% lifted my mood.
And eat some straw in the back of Alex's Transit :) ...Just not off the floor, that will have been bedding for sheep, cattle/calves, ponies, pigs or something and is likely to have whatever species of feces left from them too. It looks like they've used a cheap van instead of a livestock trailer, or to transport more in one go while also towing a trailer. It would definitely explain the floor rotting off next to the side door as that's where everything whatever animal was in there produced will have pooled, until it corroded its own drain obviously.
These two have such a great bond of friendship, the way they just bounce of each other and jell so well is so effortless. Would love to go on a night out with them 🎉
Bring both vans to the Nurburgring and get Misha to try and set a new Transit lap record, but the ice cream van has to be playing music for the full lap (assuming it makes it)
I've not laughed so much in ages 😂😂😂 the epitome of two mates pissing about in Vans, it doesn't get much better than that! Thanks for cheering up my day, love your videos and Taylor 😂
Man, I haven't laughed that much for a while, you know, the kind of silent, wheezing, struggling to breath laughing! Keep it up guys, whatever challenges you do, how about a destruction derby for the last one?
The chemistry/dynamic between Taylor and Alex is just incredible. I could die laughing watching them do just about anything. Love this channel. Also the guinea pig comment had me in tears lol. Of all the things to imagine as animals that could have been in the back lol. The image of that van filled to the brim with guinea pigs back there XD
Oh this might be the best series yet! And not a BMW in sight. Can't wait to see what you guys do. Definitely want to see some track action - see if you guys can get some air on a bump or lift a corner on a tight turn.
After watching Taylor hitting the steering wheel and Alex's reaction causing them both to laugh hysterically for ages, I just want to spend a day with these lads. They are an aboslute vibing duo. Would love to meet them some day
You lads never cease to put a smile on my face. We need more content Alex! Find my myself wishing time away looking forward to the next one! No matter what it is, it's always entertaining. Please keep it coming! ❤
this by far is the funniest episode you guys have done! absolutely a riot! the steering wheel wipers spitting water bit was amazing! id love a diesel transit to make a camper in. theyre just so nice to build in
Two guys, one van, in the middle of the field. GOLD, pure GOLD. Turn them into proper campers and go camping somewhere nice! Enjoy! Can't wait to see it happen! Cheers
THIS is what I want from UA-cam, we got all the epic projects like binky, driftworks etc but I want to see a load of lads arseing around in cars like I used to, I wish I lived closer so I could be a car friend
Dear god, the part at the end when Taylor smacks the steering wheel R U I N E D me. I almost passed out from laughing at you two. It would be awesome if you went to the shops with each others vans, and decorated each as a caravan for the other to spend a night in. Vamping in each others "creation"
Oh for crying out loud, I had to choose that moment to take a sip of water when Taylor hit the steering wheel. Absolutely brilliant. Also do a clean up first of those rancid interiors and do a living in it video and then stripping it out at a track for a race.
I bought a 1998 Smiley face Transhit in 2006 for £250. All it needed was 4 tyres, new front discs & pads, new front springs, new hard brake lines, (which I made), and an engine. All in, on the road, including MOT, tax & insurance, it cost a grand. It lasted another 7 years until the body dissolved beyond the point of welding it up. 'Manny the Tranny' was that van's name. 2.5 litre, 4 pot, non-turbo diseasel. Flat out at 74mph, whether it was empty or fully loaded & towing a trailer with a race car on. It would run on diesel, kerosene, petrol & diesel mixed, cooking oil, BBQ Lighting fluid, or even used engine oil. The motor I put in it had been to the Sun & back and would run on just about anything flammable. 👍 It was a good camper in later years too, as once the rear floor rusted out you didn't have to get out in the middle of the night to go for a pee, you just aimed through one of the larger holes in the floor.
Screw the budget, that would be hilarious. Fit the biggest, most powerful engine you can and then take it drag racing and try to get a sub 10 second time. (do what Guy Martin did to his)

The side door is a easy fix. Cut a hole on door card to left of inside handle. Get someone to try and use handle and feel how it works from inside door. Theres a metal catch the handle has slipped past with ruff use. Push it past handle the your thumb. Dont yank handle to open door click it open with handle and pull from right at roller.
My Caterham Super 7 race car uses a T5 transmission that also saw use in FR transit vans. One of the modifications we made to the gearbox was utilizing the hardened shift forks found almost exclusively in these transit vans we never got in the USA. There’s something hilarious and satisfying about knowing there’s a component that is shared between an ice cream van and my racecar.
Honestly a ice cream van as a merch van seems like a amazing idea. Dont even need to setup a tent, build a shelf to hold Tshirts inside and sell directly out of the van.
As someone who's just turned a van into a camper and toured Australia I think you should make campervans and tour the UK with mini challenges along the way. Top gear style 😉
This episode could be the funniest you three have done, you improve every episode and have hit your stride, for real! Great job to all of you, hugs all around ! Cheers from Canada
Maybe in the future you could turn these into camper vans, and maybe get the engines re-mapped if worth it. Love the videos and love how much Taylor and Alex laugh so much 🤣🤣
I realized i actually missed this video and i won't forget myself for it! Proof that you can actually have ridiculous fun independent of your budget😇😂 Taylor's laugh is highly infectious, btw😊
Campers would be a good one, pitch up in camp sites across England (South to North and back), do a race or two, deliver this to here, gas mileage challenges all with the "Who can make it the most comfortable" with the remainder of the £3000 after the fees Alex mentioned. That way Alex gets more to work with cash wise but has more repairs/parts to get... and he can't get his friends to do them for him, he has to do them himself. Taylor on the other hand has to exclusively shop at Walmart {or the local equivalent} for this challenge.
This has to be one of the most chaotic videos I’ve seen from you lot and given it’s you guys that says a lot! I genuinely would like to see Taylor restore the ice cream van and you could take it to shows to actually sell ice cream from hahaha or merch?
Oh yes! Love it. Van Diesel looks like it was carpeted at some point and then it was all ripped out badly 🫣 Definitely speak to Leigh of Combe Valley Campers about so stuff to get the vans looking pukka. Also got campers and coffee event in Hellingly Hailsham in a couple weeks on Sunday 10th September. Camping on the Saturday night too. Maybe bring them along for the show, I could totally see Taylor sleeping in an ice cream truck 😄😄😄
I’m in a Vietnamese hostel crying with laughter at the steering wheel punch 😭😭 these videos are something I look forward to every week, best content anywhere right now, keep it up guys
As an idea: use the icecream van for what it's made to do, sell icecream. Use the money u earn for restoring the transit and give it to a person in need, like u did with Michael.
You guys are just great, good mates having a right laugh. Reminds me of the old school Top Gear days, speaking of which what about a "Drag Race" towing challenge and tailgating test not very original I know but loved those TG episodes
Challenges: handbrake turns! Load them up with tools and materials and see which one makes it back in one piece. I'd die to see the ice cream van in the tradies corner at b&q. Final round, posh campervan conversion
17:21 Taylor. *Thump* *gasp* Alex *nearly chokes on water Taylor *only dogs can hear you* That interaction alone, im in pain from laughing so much 😂😂😂😂
The iced cream van would be the perfect merch van. Wrapped up in auto Alex vinyl with the fridges removed and shelving for the merch. But I want to see a full weekend ( Friday arvo until late sunday ) camping trip in these vans. £500 rv conversion and off you go
I haven't had such a good life from watching a video since the old episodes of TG. I literally had to stop the video because I was laughing so hard when Taylor rammed the wheel and the wipers turned on😂
This was funny. Loved wiper trick, might try that.....now.....I think you should do an overlanding adventure in the van. BF Goodrich, lift kits, beds and a proper cook out.

It has the worlds worst suspension
Weight test, highest KG number wins maybe a lap around a track, with the weight
These have gotta be converted into "caravans" and be used in a '24 in the van' challenge!
£500 conversions
Pretty sure Alex's used to be a converted campervan. Explains the missing bulkhead, the 'hairy' ex insluated walls and the skylight.
nah, just make it 24 hours in a van, as they are
Then a 24hr race making it a 48hr challenge 😂❤
this yes mint
Who ever is the editor, hats off to you for making the windscreen shatter!
Got me for a moment😂
It was cool, but the extra sound effects were a bit childish tho
Brilliantly done!!! 😂
@@Stealth360stealth sorry Steven Spielberg 🙄
My favourite part of the vid. Hats off to our new editor Benjy 👏
Never saw Alex laughing so damn hard.
Yeh same lol
Alex and Taylor are the perfect car comedy duo, so naturally funny
The amount of pure laughter in this just being silly reminds me of my younger years ❤️
02:14 that VFX cracking of the windscreen was high level. props to the editor .
The whole scene with Taylor hitting the steering wheel and Alex's reaction was the funniest thing I've seen in a while.
I just don’t understand what Taylor is saying 😭 please someone has to help me
@@Alessandro7954"it does the transit thing" I think if you hit the transit wheel it does the same and set the wipers off
@@Alessandro7954 think he says,
it does the transit thing
Ohhh yeah you're right! Thanks a lot guys @@fredericoespinoza
Yeah I forgot they all did that 😂
Marley has to become the AutoAlex merch van! Pull up on the 28th and open for business! Terry can move your bikes around. Marley wins 😂 not laughed so much in ages! What happened to the trade up challenge?
I'm imagining them selling tees with a complementary rootbeer or cream soda of their own branding (sorta like James' Gin) out of it in 2-4 years time.
My god this episode was funny & when Taylor slammed his fist on the steering and the wipers turned on 😂🤣😂 Already excited for more episodes to come 👌👌
We need to see you try and make ice creams while Taylor drives you around a track, and vice versa! This has been an absolute banger of an episode and 100% lifted my mood.

The Amount of energy this two have is unmatched 😂😂
A true bromance if ever I saw one
@@utilitarian yesss sir👍🏻
Taylor laughing is so damn infectious that you can’t help but laughing yourself…..🤣
Alex and Taylor’s pairing is the best. Laughing my ass off
Jokes !
Same 😂😂😂
Taylor really has the most infectious laugh! I loved the video :) Two suggestions: 1) lift kit, or 2) lowered
These two have such a great bond of friendship, the way they just bounce of each other and jell so well is so effortless. Would love to go on a night out with them 🎉
The ice cream van could be a great parking lot merch shop for shows/meetups.
Bring both vans to the Nurburgring and get Misha to try and set a new Transit lap record, but the ice cream van has to be playing music for the full lap (assuming it makes it)
They can try and beat sabine shmitz her record in a transit.
@@jonasvandersmissen5449 not a chance sabine was in a 115 trend with all the weight out. Be funny to watch though
Sabine Schmitz tribute holiday trip to the ring! Perfect.
Misha driving a rusty shitbox on the nordschleife? Isn't that kinda dangerous?
Ok, i'm in for it😅
Drive to the ring. Sleep in the van. Next day, lap of the ring.
never thought watching a footage of 2 adult men screaming for reaching 60mph in an ice cream van would be this hilarious.. i love it
I bet you never thought that you write that sentence too ;)
Brilliant! Love it ! This is UA-cam GOLD !!! HOW ON EARTH HASNT THIS PAGE REACHED 1M subs YET ?!
Genuinely one of the funniest UA-cam vids iv'e seen in a long while, you guys never fail to deliver!
Its now in fashion that everytime Taylor will go over budget no matter the situation 😂😂
:0

Trip to Spain 🇪🇸
He needs to learn from Ed and be over budget while being on budget
The ice cream van experience was some of the best stuff I've seen on youtube this year 😂
I've not laughed so much in ages 😂😂😂 the epitome of two mates pissing about in Vans, it doesn't get much better than that! Thanks for cheering up my day, love your videos and Taylor 😂
Man, I haven't laughed that much for a while, you know, the kind of silent, wheezing, struggling to breath laughing! Keep it up guys, whatever challenges you do, how about a destruction derby for the last one?
Love Marley! You should sell merch out of her. Plus, "The Transit Thing" had me launching coffee out both nostrils.
The chemistry/dynamic between Taylor and Alex is just incredible. I could die laughing watching them do just about anything. Love this channel.
Also the guinea pig comment had me in tears lol. Of all the things to imagine as animals that could have been in the back lol. The image of that van filled to the brim with guinea pigs back there XD
-The crack in the window…
-That’s alright it’s nothing!
*proceeds to thundercunt the windscreen*
Fair play, the pair of you properly make me laugh. Been a crap day today but this brought a smile to my face.
Oh this might be the best series yet! And not a BMW in sight. Can't wait to see what you guys do. Definitely want to see some track action - see if you guys can get some air on a bump or lift a corner on a tight turn.
I think terry was a camper. His dandruff is the remains of insulation and that explains the roof hatch.
I think someone kept a pony in there or something lol
@@cryptojim6953 afterwards probably. Things had 5 owners so who knows what horrors terry as witnessed
I have to come clean, Taylor's humour makes these so much more enjoyable 😂
The budget challenge series are always the best, made better by Alex and Taylor crying with laughter 😂
After watching Taylor hitting the steering wheel and Alex's reaction causing them both to laugh hysterically for ages, I just want to spend a day with these lads. They are an aboslute vibing duo. Would love to meet them some day
Honestly, I've not laughed so hard at a vid on youtube in ages! You 2 together are bloody hilarious! Love it!
Anyone else absolutely piss themselves when taylor hit the wheel & the window wipers started going 😭
You lads never cease to put a smile on my face. We need more content Alex! Find my myself wishing time away looking forward to the next one! No matter what it is, it's always entertaining. Please keep it coming! ❤
If they're flogging merch, the ice cream van is a moving shop.
this by far is the funniest episode you guys have done! absolutely a riot! the steering wheel wipers spitting water bit was amazing!

Two guys, one van, in the middle of the field. GOLD, pure GOLD. Turn them into proper campers and go camping somewhere nice! Enjoy! Can't wait to see it happen! Cheers
The bit with Taylor hitting the wheel like that Mazda was incredible 😂
I absolutely love this series. Taylor is hilarious and seems to be a genuine guy. Looking forward to more of your antics.
The tears are streaming out my eyes watching this thank you Alex and Taylor you should be prescribed as a cure for Depression absolutely epic.
THIS is what I want from UA-cam, we got all the epic projects like binky, driftworks etc but I want to see a load of lads arseing around in cars like I used to,
I wish I lived closer so I could be a car friend
I absolutely love you two together! There’s never a video I am not splitting my sides at! Keep it up guys!
Looking forward to this becoming another great rolling home for someone!
Dear god, the part at the end when Taylor smacks the steering wheel R U I N E D me. I almost passed out from laughing at you two.
It would be awesome if you went to the shops with each others vans, and decorated each as a caravan for the other to spend a night in. Vamping in each others "creation"
Alex, it was lovely meeting you today at the British Motorshow! Much much love from the Netherlands ♥️🇳🇱
Gotta love this duo. The single best entertainment UA-cam has to offer😍
Well well well if it ain't the rust van
Marley is perfect for selling merch, put boxes of shirts in the freezer and sell them out of the window!
Nothing could've prepared me for Marley! Absolutely amazing! Can't wait to see what hijinks you two get up too!
Oh for crying out loud, I had to choose that moment to take a sip of water when Taylor hit the steering wheel. Absolutely brilliant.

I'd like too see it with 100

These are so funny but there's loads of series with no follow ups! Can't find the episode after this.. same with some of your other series!
They destroyed ice cream Van. You can see it Volvo XC90 episode
Still waiting on what's happening with these.
Ice cream van got crushed, other one was the merch van I think
This is one of the funniest videos i have seen in a while. Thanks Taylor and Alex
This is one of the best episodes of Autoalex ever...pure enjoyment, and properly fucking hilarious.
You definitely need to recreate the Top Gear Van Challenge episode!! Police chase round a race track, furniture moving challenge and a drag race!!!
Bringing up the production values on this I see, love it! Keep em coming

I’ve been binging the last couple of months of videos and I am absolutely loving the content.
Definitely want to see a race with these. However, with them being vans, the race should be with the vans laden with maximum load (max weight).
These two together are just hilarious. Note to self... Remember not to eat and drink whilst watching these videos, as it will end up everywhere 😂😂
That windshield crack…😮💨😮💨😮💨 props to the Editor/VFX artist 👏👏👏
Your content just gets better and better to be honest. If only I lived closer to you all I would love to join in your adventurers
The ice cream van is perfect for flogging merch at events. Alex is just jealous!
If the van's a rocking
it's because
we're churning

the ice cream
🤣
A resto project on the ice cream van would be pretty cool 😅
Genuinely that Ice Cream side hatch looks perfect for selling merch. I imagine this is exactly what Taylor has in mind!
Ice cream van for selling merch would be such a great platform! Be ideal for events ! Be cool to see a modified ice cream van also
I’m in a Vietnamese hostel crying with laughter at the steering wheel punch 😭😭 these videos are something I look forward to every week, best content anywhere right now, keep it up guys
These videos are getting better every week, plus the editing is really impressive, Rorys doing a damn good job. 👍🏽
