Taylor from AutoAlex on How He Never Planned to Be on Camera | EP46

​​In this episode of Talkin’ Shop we’re joined by Taylor from TaylorMade Cars & AutoAlex, the man who went from fixing cars in a leaky chicken shed to becoming one of YouTube’s most-loved mechanics. Taylor opens up about how it all started, selling a £25 BMW that changed his life, meeting Alex Kirsten in a Costco car park, and how one unplanned video became a 1.8 million view viral hit. He shares the real side of YouTube: the stress, the pressure, and the sleepless nights trying to finish builds before road trips, including the emotional story of the one car that broke him. You’ll also hear hilarious behind-the-scenes moments, from cake-covered workshops to unforgettable road trip chaos across Europe. If you love cars and honest conversations about success, burnout, and passion, this episode is a must-listen.
