    Rory has completely transformed this channel in the past couple years since he joined. Pretty dire before lol
  • @botarnav6817
    Thank u for the review. After analysing both the cars deeply, I have gone with Toyota Corolla
  • @SoveratosPrime
    Rory laughing after saying “there’s a second nipple on the right hand side of the steering wheel” just made my day.
  • @jamesoylk
    This guy is the most unreal car reviewer on YouTube. Full of positivity at the detriment of reality
  • That's why I dont believe in buying cars online. Have to see the car colour in person, it's crazy how something that small can diminish the ownership experience.
  • @mkzwrld7641
    The way AutoTrader have levelled up since Rory came around is incredible. This channel used to be soooo boring.
  • I have the GLE and was surprised that the different driving modes weren't mentioned. In Comfort mode the car is a lovely drive but you need Sports mode (or Individual Mode) for more of a drivers car. You can personalise the Individual Mode to give you sporting suspension, steering and gearbox but leave the engine in comfort mode etc. The GLE also has the option of the Head Up Display and Distronic which are both super. The BMW may have these features as well of course but I don't know. I used to have the older GLE and the new one is just superb.

    The dark blue colour looks good man. Don’t worry about it.
  • This guy makes you wanna buy every vehicles he reviewed, that's a skill many don't have...
  • @Tripp55
    I haven't driven either of the new generations but the interior of the GLE is just gorgeous.
  • @chigweyari5254
    Did he just say the face of the Merc is miserable? Like really? Wow, I never thought I would hear someone say that in my lifetime.
  • @mbizozo6271
    Drove the X5 when it was released. Never knew why people bought the things. After my drive, I wanted one.
  • @RuthlessFocus_
    Here from Twitter! This guy inspires me so much. I started my car YouTube channel because of his inspiration! I hope I will meet him one day !
  • @AH_Hamburg
    I have exactly the same colour combination - carbon black outside and white insight. I love it and even with my two kids it's easy to clean. What I love most: the combination of the brilliant engine in my X5 45e and the smooth airsuspension. Incredible comfortable! You bought the right car 👍👍👍
  • I hope AutoTrader pays you well Rori. You deserve it. Watching car reviews of the same vehicle with other presenters... Your videos are always better. Much props!
  • @TheoDaJunk
    That is such a mat watson thumbnail😂😂😂brilliant video mate I had no idea so much goes wrong with these cars , my Honda hasn't had a problem since the day we bought it
  • @fabbas01
    Both my X5’s had digital rear controls and USB plugs. I am thinking it’s an option in UK market.
  • @ghibli608
    Very honest report. Love it ! Definitely when you are able to put in your own experience as an owner. Thank you, Rory.
