Alex Gur

Roadside Patrol

Alexander Gur is a Roadside Patrol at The AA, with more than 20 years of hands-on experience across garage and roadside roles, as well as a strong personal interest in performance cars.

Alexander has worked in the motor trade for more than two decades. His background includes 5 years of garage experience, 7 years with Green Flag, and 8 years with The AA. Over that time, he has built strong practical knowledge of vehicle faults, roadside repairs, and day-to-day maintenance across a wide range of makes and models.

His experience in both workshop and roadside environments gives him a clear understanding of the problems drivers face in real-world conditions. That hands-on background helps him offer straightforward, experience-based insight from a technician’s point of view.

Outside of work, Alexander has a particular interest in Volkswagen Group cars. He enjoys going to the gym and working on his own vehicles, including an Audi S3 and a Volkswagen Golf Edition 35.

    Audi Q3

    4.2/5

    Since its launch in 2011, the Q3 has become one of Audi’s most successful models, leaving the brand with little reason to change a winning formula. Instead, the 2026 model is an evolution with sharper styling, a more modern cabin and other refinements to make it more complete than ever. We spent time with the new Audi Q3 265 TFSI to find out whether those changes have produced a more accomplished luxury SUV.
