"like the last, the last Evo that they did rare car, really cool car. You know, it's it's a lot of like that era of relly bread, yakaza Mitsubishi, they're not going to do anything like that anymore because it's gonna be making crossovers Mazda. MX-5 I've RF with the two later, so current shape, crunchy in deism, tractable Fastback, really like them or can they argue?"
"That's not a lot of people like, but I actually have a model. Is what do you like Adrian? The Jaguar F-Type. Oh, I can't believe you said that, my friend at work, is it's behind me. We're having this discussion"

One of the can talk. I'm a DJ in the studio with Ed
Tyrone and Adrienne. How are we gentlemen?
Hi Maddie pretty good. Hi Maddie.
I don't know if you guys have a lovely introduction was it was that better than just saying hello.
We Pleasant conversation with you guys is it that's done will happen when pigs fly like these just never happened.
You okay. But just bad do that was that I
was at a bit introduction for you.
And yeah, that was nice. Hello you guys anyway though,
it's been, it's been a week. It's been a good week.
So far. Lasers running smooth.
Look at the clasp in a good week.
Is it broke? I did break.
Both, do candidates mascara updates.
Let's go, what's good? Now, car updates.
So we like to start our show with the actor update.
So we cuddle me because I are you going Moscow?
So, laser was driving good. I had the fuel per having done.
Well, laser was driving, well. This is why I'm an art teacher,
but see us are teachers. We still need to know English,
you need to write stuff. So yeah, if you have great art
skills, you are amazing. You artistic - is qualities and
you've got good skills in artistic - no.
So fuel pumps. Being done was driving, really
well, it and then it starts to sputter a little bit like Like, like the throttle stuck because that is mmm.
Yeah, mmm. That's a very good answer.
Erratic bit sporadic. Sort of like an older Old
English English motor. So got to take it in scanned, it
came up with the map sensor was was at fault.
So I map stands for yes, manifold.
Absolute absolute pressure think, that's right.
Yeah, my friend told me last night and I still have almost half forgot it, but I think that's right.
Yeah. And the other one is math.
Yes. Manifest, massive air flow or
something. Yeah, that's it.
So yeah, so yeah, it said that was playing up.
So I went to the Wreckers where there was an SR-22, the motor was really good in that one. So I just took the took that
with a little Tim miltan, real spider, popped it on, and then call me to go to work. Is he still in Kauai?
So you still never been. So, mad invite Matt made in
volume for you, see, convert. So yeah, it's it's on, it's
driving better. Yeah, it's good to be, just
driving back out. Was like, it was just good back
to normal, which is good. I mean, when a car is done that
many cases, you know, you can allow a few things to go to go especially when you're running in an engine and, you know, you know funny and he's giving you a few ribs on board have giving it a few reps on board. Get a nice drive.
Do you have a nice drive? Yes, I took it down the bits
Down The Great Ocean Road. And then we went on to a lovely
road. Should we stay?
Or should we keep that secret that road are?
You know, it's a. Yeah, I think it's well, known,
is it? He did not.
I know exactly the try to talk about it, so isn't it?
He didn't ruin it. Okay.
So I can't say anything about what that rotis, no.
Because every no no, okay? Because every good car will want
to go on it. Yeah, right.
And buses. No, I didn't because I forgot
about it on the way back. I want to.
Yeah, well it's too many people, too many buses and people are just Prix. They just dawdle know.
They just they don't know how to look behind them and they think that they're the only ones on the road.
It's very frustrating. We had this happen to us the
other day, we did what was in front of us, was that I have Transit. Do something that was like a
blind eye. I'll over there was a crafter.
What was it across? It was a Renault trafic traffic.
Yeah, that's something yeah, mr. Truck main problem too?
Yeah. Who's the cause of the problem
is the cause of the problem. The truck driver, without truck
stops. Who's going to bring down your
your nude glass from Brisbane to that.
The trucks, you know, the bowden's product.
What is it? New mean, green and let you with
dreams and all that. He's gonna bring that down to
your store. Anyway, if you're a truck driver
and you're on the when there's no one in front of.
Yeah. It's all right.
Tell her what you got to say for that to that.
I should be anyone in the left lane.
Beside the truck to go into the left lane to Overtake the truck that decided to sit in there and then bumper, he ignores the fact that the truck need to turn right soon.
That is the voice of if he's a gentleman, Ella is what it's looked at the studio. Just listen to some idiot.
Talk about some map sensor in his car or something.
And I got a bit enthralled with that.
They see that that enticed you in.
Yes. Yes, I would come in earlier but
there's a potato cake but I'd finished.
Yeah I love it. So yeah, that's my update on my
end. Eduardo.
Well, it's been an interesting week.
Yeah. I was going to say the hail
storm on Sunday, you know, I've avoided all the others but it got me this time. Oh dear Welch and the Canberra
one was really bad so it's lucky.
You're in Melbourne actually I'm very happy.
My uncle sent me a link and I was like oh that's nasty.
I could be going back to my apartment like a smashed window or something. Yeah, it's not my problem.
It's not a WRX exact. So yeah, the Jazz got machine
gunned down in the street, which I wasn't so worried about.
I mean it, you know, what do you do?
So I couldn't do anything about it.
Act of God, Act of God. The S-Class though was in the
street and I was like, oh no. I had the garage with the 190
diesel was in there in the Caravan was in the garage.
So I couldn't just sort of put a straight in the house, but I put the garage door. So I was in the garage on the
housetop started, I sort of tilted at half up, jumped in the S, reversed it back. So it's a half under the garage
door that was sort of tilted. And I ran into, I've just got
dunas, you know, and roles of foam from the garages just plaid plaid it with stuff on there, which helped, I'm sure it helped. I've got a video of a shown you,
but yet still got a little bit of hail on the boot to Bonnet in the roof but nothing like the machine going on the Jazz touch with the S will be alright, so do nothing.
If we got held up a little bit, the bottom of the roof.
So you absolutely covered by well I think it got that but I put my things on. Worse.
Whatever will be way worse. So you reckon there are people
that specifically have overvalued cars on insurance specifically put their cars out when they know there's a hail storm coming. Probably.
Yes, yes, this is true. That would happen and insurance
companies are exactly the nicest people.
I'm sure there's people that would do that.
Well, I know somebody that's got issues with the vehicle and when these were happening, like I'm going to go for a drive.
And ticketed trophy in. So it's but happen.
What are you driving? These
crops like sugarcane took him out and he goes come look at this. Went up just after this
hailstorm and he said, where did hailed was absolutely flattened and where it hadn't was was all standing upright and perfect and he said it was that patchy. Hail doesn't do a whole area.
You know, it doesn't just though there's a suburb bang every streets here. It could be that streets hit and
the next one isn't. And then actually it's real say
it's random. So he said in this proved it.
You know, you could see all the little Patchwork quilt of where the hell had gone. Yeah.
You think how would we do a bigger?
You think it would be more? I thought it would be.
More broad than that. But apparently not.
I remember in the in the Christmas house don't we had a few years ago, 2010 wasn't 2011 somewhere in my next door neighbor. Had a really really nice and you
know brand-new I think was like six months old, SS SS V wagon like ve Wagon on format or come on boys for those listeners who may not be familiar with the. Yeah it's yes.
It's a, that's a, that's a Holden Commodore ve.
So basically, He was he just finished polishing the like the day before and then when it started to come down his his wife's car was underneath the covers like they got.
That could be shared. So he's out there jumping on the
car trying to look, he's copying all the hail storms.
He's like, I'm trying to take my car to a think we're car and there's a big body size dent in the room where he body slammed pretty much. But yeah, that was, that was a
funny time. But anyway, nasty Taro not that
with you. No nothing for me.
Oh, the Rexy has gone in for the service.
Yes, I was told by our lovely mechanic that you can say shit, know what? Hey, wait, no, no, no, no, no.
I spoke to I spoke to my mother who was there at the time and he's like, yeah Tuesday Wednesday.
Tuesday, all Wednesdays and I say it's Tuesday.
Today is Tuesday and he said, you ain't said shit.
No, I don't know. He's unlucky Falcon him because
like they still come to this. Who's this?
Your dad's one? Yes this is the one I originally
owned and allegedly thrash but I never.
Is it a wag? Not just a sedan.
Eager sir he gets it and I cannot help.
He could you life and Battery? Yeah.
Yeah. Green green colored one your the
green rocket color with the same words.
And it's so environmental needs it because it's sometimes back.
Yeah. But a few months ago, the
starter motor on that died. Yeah.
Well, my parents were at the temple, so they simply had it towed to using our SUVs assist, it got towed back home, and they sent somebody in a van, the next day to do the starter motor and I suspect he did a crap job of it because there's a very similar metallic sound that you get.
Like, if you try and start a car that's already started, that.
Yeah, it's caught sort of similar to that, but not as intense. So I think he hasn't installed
it properly. Lovely and it's kind of hitting
the, the ring gears and ringing. Yeah, once in a while, but so we
haven't like, we stopped driving yesterday.
It realistically probably should have been driven a while ago, but my parents being people, they're just don't figure out the problems until it's probably a bigger problem that needs to be. So, as soon as I get the Rex you
back, I'm going to drop you off if it is something to do with the starter motor. Then our is who's going to get a
beer talking to? It should be warranty though.
Yeah, because they do, you know, like the mobile van does batteries and yeah, that amazing, maybe even alternators, I don't know. But, you know, they do all those
those as common consumer believe.
I think there's 12 month warranty.
At least 10 has only been a few months that have to be it.
How? I don't know what the Press is
going to be, if it's just stammers actually just gone which it probably the starts just fine but it's just an install issue than I don't know. Do we is this some kind of
recourse against? I would I would, how long does
it done for three months? Oh yeah. 100% this that's got a
guarantee on it. Yeah.
Definitely. But is it going to in the actual
install? Like do they would be if they if
they did ya get the money back from from them.
I'm not going to get them account to come out and yeah I'd say so do it himself. I've already got the car for
service there. Anyway so much to do that unless
it's something else it also because it sounded metallic.
I'm like is The exhaust dragging on the floor I thought it was you just not sure sir that's any case on that car.
Only like 120,000. I think it's pretty low.
Yeah, I got it 56. And yeah, it's been we have we
do average about ten ten thousand cases a year.
Yeah. It's pretty low.
Yeah, but yeah, that one's was little bit trouble which is because like my mom's want you to should have be a mark 2 e gas and that did like 170,000 cage never gave one issue.
Like you just kept going and you'll one, I don't know what the hell happened. What he is, did you monitor?
She owned it for probably a good, five, six years.
Okay, so I feel that's the the biggest play with these.
Like, when I was saying things like, these can do Mill in case they can but they do something about three years or so.
Hmm and then they kind of like just a saddle man, driving it with the yellow color remaining on it, that kind of thing until they eventually just get you know, parted where As L1, we've had it for, you know, at this point.
What? 10 years or so?
Yeah, so I think the overall low km accumulation and time is probably what's kind of done it. So what's going wrong with that
car? It's now spring another coolant
leak. It had just a bunch of starting
difficulties. The cat got blocked.
There's always been something something wrong with it somewhere. There's a few spots with a bit,
too much rust for my liking. Mmm.
That fit and finish their Ford fit and finish quality.
And you're going to just got one that was built on Friday.
Yeah, most likely but that being said like it's hard to beat the 60 cents a liter you know, gas price, when will she be going on a long trip? It's just it's nothing.
Yeah, I think we're averaging about like ten to eleven litres per 100 cars and I'll be good on the gas.
Yeah and it's kind of hard to beat except when you if you're trying to fill up in a Country Town they're trying to sell it to you. A multi-sensor l, then you kind
of get angry but apart from that.
Yeah, because we're pretty, pretty good.
Now, the main one that we've been waiting for.
Yeah, I'm excited. Adrian last week last week now
we get to find out what the crap is and give you more crap.
Yeah, so Adrian you you said, this is the way to do it and I bought. Here we go.
I'm going to guess it. Might last time.
You answer? Yes or no.
And I'll ask you questions, like, okay.
Is it an Australian car? Nope.
Is it Japanese car? What is it?
Like it, like it, like it. What is it?
I want to stretch up with the right on a stretcher.
Get him out of here, he's not well listen Nicole oh boy Madison. What's right with our value?
Seven years warranty. That doesn't make it right.
You sell it and you do it. All right.
That do it yourself. You don't need to have all in
your life. You decide.
I'm gonna freakin dinged up Jazz.
Oh ding. That's an act of God.
You put a Tesla, you bought a Tesla?
No, you did not. We're Americans.
Not the America in there. Working.
Yeah. What kind of what Islam says is
that? The little one?
The big one. The model 3?
Congratulations. Now, let's guess properly, this
time I saw the NX. You saw the next.
How much did you get for it? That's not what he was actually
doing this. Who paid them to take it, okay?
When you say sealed was at those mobs, you 1-800 who come and pick up my car. I did all the give you cash for
kids under cover, you know, they are And came from country. The brand was come on.
It is the car brand-new though. It's not afraid this point.
It's not answering. Just give us some hints now.
Gone, you're making terrible radio.
I don't need an answer, but you said that to happen and it did no. I haven't bought anything, but
you put a deposit on. Say something.
No, I haven't put a deposit to why I went to go and look at a car because I was gonna buy that one in before.
I had the chance to go and get it.
He sold it on me. What was the cut was a kind.
Oh, just a vi list different cars.
So I've gone and taken a 4-cylinder one for a drive.
That was terrible. We'll set them up.
So now I'm going to go take a look to see what I can do.
So this is a car that got sold out from under, it doesn't matter anymore because when I'm going to buy it from underneath, there's another Yes, Tyrone. What was that?
Listen to the show. There has been some cars out
without that'll be new. That we've talked about quite
quite expect extensively that we've, that we've really, really liked pretty much. They're all have Al's.
Yeah, more or less. I've also probably the best
care. They go, Tyrone, internal
sponsored we really. Should we still have our zits.
Vase, not the vase event cherries the lever.
What about Gilly? The Elevate the liver domestic
vehicle. It's not easy.
Over the last 10 years has been some great cars.
And there's been some horrendous Karzai, either Cactus Glen sister. Okay, so it's 2013, the ones we
like these little ones we like do.
So these aren't the ones that we hate.
So the ones that we actually like what are you going to list them are on my list? Well, homework and do the
homework. You never do nothing.
No, you do you were told us when we five minutes before we started. So cars that we would love to
earn from the last decade. So this means that these because
we would actually buy with our money if we had money.
So now Adrian I know you hate BMWs and you own them but there has been to BMW some, the last 10 years that I would love to buy em to em, too. Yeah, that's what you are so
wrong on so many levels for close.
But A1 m, I am yeah whatever an M2 I really like those car did the right thing. 63 AMG that can be yours.
Adrian, that's fun. That's why this within the time
limit its. And yes it is.
He's gonna buy the electric on the hope, the Camry Hybrid.
Well, because it's coming out. But yeah, you want to solve
these new, right? Yeah, so them knew I'd driven
them what's an M1? Sorry.
I want him like 1:00 a.m. Yeah, it's everything.
We like about. BMW rear-drive, beautifully
balanced. Nice powerful straight-6.
Mower very raw. You know, manual only nice and
raw master. Make some love bills, boys, if
you go to the wrong places, maybe.
But I really like, because it, what they will, they're fat looking little car. Yeah, look, I always like that
shape. One series 3082.
Yo, he's even in like a, what is it?
Naturally, aspirated, sort of 125.
I, they were a nice little sweet car to drive and to because the they got fatter and fatter and fatter over the years, like the old E21 3 Series in E30, 3-Series are a fuck.
Fuck range in size from the current.
No 4 Series Coupe. So that the three Series in the
fourth series that came after it, you know, got bigger and bigger whereas those EA T to S. And then the two series that
were placed at I forget the code for those they were definitely more size-wise like an old E30 E36 E46.
So so yeah, there's nothing like putting a big straight-6 into a beautifully balanced to Door BMW.
Chassis. It's a good thing.
It is a good thing. I always kind of liked the one
him. I thought that was like, I had
really flat arches and be. Yeah, I did enough, their
Federal program car. Yeah.
Luka. And then the then the M2 came
out. Now, people laughed at the empty
because I said it's a bit of a past pain, specialist not result of proper. M car.
Did they laugh at the M2? Because I said, it's doesn't
have it in M specific motor. Like it's actually got one out
of a pretty quick and it's a quicker, it's called.
So I think it's something out of a, the 335, I don't know, what has gotten out of but it's got the E90.
Rediff and fifty four Motors in the end. 55 the 3.5 doctor?
Yeah, it's a it's it's one of those Motors.
I'm still a great drive. And, you know, and if it's not
an M motor, that means there's no rod.
Bearing issues means it actually kind of reliable.
So I was watching, I was watching a review with Chris Harris and and Chris Harris was saying that the the M2 would be what it should be. An M3 is an empty right now,
like, you know, like an original like any 30 E36 M3.
Yeah. Is the size of m 2 and he's like
that. You get to get that feeling from
that. Yeah.
And I'd have one in a manual. In that lovely blue.
I reckon it's I've seen it I've seen around the I'm like, I'm like, damn, it's a BMW that I would own.
This is the M2 and I think it's called Long Beach blue.
Okay. Yeah.
They didn't have had a few different Blues, but that one's particularly nice. They also have it in the x6m
that same. Yeah, your leader.
I saw a I am in near my work that it was nicely hail damage as well that was in Valencia orange.
Oh yeah, that was there. Hey, local as a bit of a hero
color. Yeah.
A chance just give me daggers, do you really hate him that you've given your daggers? Because you will pick the wrong
card? The best car for the last decade
is a Halal H9. Electric power third-row.
So the third row seats, are paraelectric, unbelievable panoramic roof. So you can see everything.
So you can see right down on the side of the pin speaker Infinity. It's a seven-year warranty, you
have to worry about for seven years.
I like a little bit, but I also like the C63 AMG with the 6.2
naturally, aspirated V8, that's now.
I dream snorting, and a nice exhaust.
I don't mind. I don't mind them.
That was the early ones that had the Yeah, that's that's not going to happen.
If I had a larger money, probably equal to the price of the car to spend on maintenance. The C63 would be choices.
It's a lovely car. You gotta balance.
It's over the cars, 30 grand, you need to have 30 grand a ready for the for the maintenance.
With an opposite. You know, you got the offset
account that you can redraw into.
It's like that all the time. Yeah, so you actually just
paying 60 grand for the car. You just don't get over, said
67, the 30 grand offset, but from all accounts though, like that 6.2 liters of pretty bulletproof mode.
I like they're, they're pretty reliable.
Don't really growing. I mean, they have the electronic
Gremlins and stuff, but in terms of like like a good drive like they don't really go wrong. So get it but there's other
stuff like the fact that the heat sorry the seat kind of once you sit down starter out what kind of hugs you and say yes.
Kind of murders over time to where?
Yeah so no more hugs. You no more hugs component,
hugging position that we terrible.
Just constant hugs. You know what?
But the seatbelt Motors, they are they still work these bins?
You know, that's exactly right. One of the better cars that have
come out in the last 10 years is that like celery American Jeep type things around Carry case, just a little challenges that to be rolled on a sick bird. I agree with you there.
I reckon the SRT range is pretty cool.
Like a throttle, everything about the 330.
I mean, look, okay but why? I don't know why I didn't buy
argue. They're going now.
You can bother them because I've got a Birkin BMW sitting.
Here it is still one of Mustang with a broken people.
Still pain a Tesla. Okay.
But a 300, a saute for example. Yes.
The build quality is not the best fiery.
That was really wrong with the valves, in the head, the valve springs. Always floated.
That's beside stuff, but that's because I had a lot of those, like, the other ones had the like, you could shut off the four cylinders, right? So like that, they had those two
had those canvas users. Yeah, but like limp home mode
now. So when you're on the freeway,
I'll charge it. Shut the same for off the whole
time. Am I getting more ring?
Where in one half of the motor than the other?
Probably be cool. But yeah, if you just change the
valve springs to the heavy duty ones fix the issue.
Hmm. Well I mean by judging her
popular they've become like the sot Jason stuff.
They are everywhere and I don't exclusively by people of low repute oh legal refute criminals the underworld yes I do.
The only person that I personally knew that drove it So here's one was stolen. Yeah, some Vin changes and
things going on, okay? Then he also had a stolen from
him by another person of ill repute and you can report to the cops because it was like I say my stolen car.
Don't come here either. But yeah, Drug Money.
Ridiculously overpriced of what you can't have, because I sort of challenge of driving down the road.
I don't like it's looks better than a Mustang, or a Camaro.
But is it just because we can't have it.
You always want what? You can't have Alan, because I
assure you it's available available.
Love it, just in a regular challenge.
It doesn't even have to be the higher end specs.
Then people just feel like So, there was one that was for sale recently that I'm actually it was about 50, 60 Grand.
He also wasn't too expensive. And there's 2011, one that had
the think, side, the 6.1 Hemi in it.
That was a nice car and it just it hurts.
You spiritually buying these cars.
When you know, they less than half the price back in the States. Yeah.
Killer. That's that's the that's the
worst bit. Because we've got to go to a
quick break. We'll be right back after this.
Okay back on. What is this car talk and you'll
have to listen to me. Continuing on the discussion.
The car I wanted to bring in is probably like I don't have a list but probably my favorite car of these last decade.
The SLS AMG. Oh yeah, baby.
But it's a 2010 to 2015. Okay.
So you will see that that's 160 car.
That is a sexy cow even. Now you see those parked or
driving and you just like oh that's a lot of car.
Yeah, I think there are about 800, something brand-new.
Yeah. Even now they command a premium.
I was looking them up there about 400 plus, but they are beautiful. Am I right in saying there was a
normal SLS and then there was the AMG SLS, Black Series that a black series one. No, those are the newer newer
ones. We've got the AMG GTS and then
he kind of GTs and the GTR. I thought it was one that was
400 something new. Wrong with that.
These are the I know the current AMG GTS there around that price.
Okay, believe the GTR is the 400 and something, right?
The law aspects. Start a bit cheaper.
You're going to sew those Gullwing door SLS?
You know, named Jean. You they were like 800 800.
And even now they're commanding a pyramid about 400 plus.
It's up there. Why did they didn't bring in a
lot? Mclaren has not been It's kind
of like a statement car, isn't it?
It's just like, this is an LS LS, we buy a house.
But instead, I'm going to buy a copy.
Yeah, pretty much. Not much of 120 people, Watchman
blaze it. Depending what you buy a shoe
box in Sydney, Sydney could buy something with a lot of land in Tasmania for that person. Yeah, I don't care about
Tasmania. That's that's the issue is.
That's why it's the number one. Place to go and everything else
gets bombed and you know writing while I'm going to test because you It's got good land, its rich soil.
You can grow veggies and live off it.
Yeah and good roads. LM, so as long as you've got a
car and some land in tazzy, the Laughing, awesome, a couple of levels, I sort of agree with that.
The neck. Seal the yes.
Yes, excellent. Then add the duck mattress.
We save yourselves. As on that New Zealand.
You're not. But like the guy like an easy
loader, guys. He's like, God, he's like,
that's choice is that it's like, it's like, it looks about as the boss comes like, hello box. Anyway, that is beautiful
masterpieces and include some freaks places.
So when you're all over, yes, this is true.
That again, was it. So when you roll over, because
you can't open the doors for those, After the freon gas inside like Takata airbags, you know, toughie it's opening.
Let's it's nice to have a little bit of explosive above your head. So if you roll that, that's
definitely a write-off because it explodes itself.
Yeah. Pretty much well, yeah, yeah.
It's not good. Yeah.
But hopefully a good car that is that is something I spite on the, the Ferrari F40 is more like a.
If I win the lottery kind of thing, that's often the last 10 years. Yes, it's exactly the still it's
one of my dream car lists, but the SLS is when I actually aspire to own and all mortgage my house and sell my children would have to do is take a few more years, but we'll do it and then I'll probably roll it. What if she works?
Just try to roll it next on my list, I have got.
So what we've talked about BMW thought about the CCT 3.
Shall we talk about the fpvcs and HSN?
Don't use the last the last of them.
Yeah, I mean, we can, you know, everybody would have a sneaking.
Does that sneak in in the, in the dam?
Yep, I wouldn't get out of it. Baloo's.
You lost your right to speak in this program.
Milords don't serve a purpose. You serve them alert.
Yeah, it's got the entire train, the back with the only thing you put in there is a slab of beer. Good beer, not not rubbish.
Be at least. I don't like no.
No baby. You do Crown like he's family
but it's way too low to do any kind of actual activity with.
Yeah. Okay.
For me, it is it is the Australian two-door, sports car.
It is what I like Australian cars.
I do you do. So why would I want to destroy a
lead? I don't want it.
All right, Liz. Okay.
Come on. But the genius.
Yes, that is like that was faster around a track than it missing GTR. Like that was just
spectacularly. Good.
It was, it was basically Holdings last hurrah of of just saying, you know, this is what we can do.
Do that once I'm did it one Interpol, no.
WW1 A great room. Oh yes, I saw the pictures.
Yeah much, he's a Malou now. She is 20.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure you could probably get about for a very why they roughly about the 15, 20 mile, quite a tangible for the va's there, about 20 plus, finding all what you get, but if they have GTS can get them know. It is a nice fish if you don't
want a new Supercharger. So, Waukesha cute, all you buy a
Really LS a done one, and your dad, and your sweet.
The sound amazing, they do some good getting on.
Getting on with that. As you were saying LM, you've
got your choice of fpv so I could gdf or in the last of the f6s. Or as I've got a, my list XS X
where X R8 Sprint, one of the one of the last mentioned them before. I think yes, really fully
revised suspension more power. Actually probably the best
Falcons at they made won't fpv. So would just like done in.
In the in the skunk works at Ford skunkworks speak keep me on the Ford topic. The Focus RS is you are a focus
freak I love them I just all over a focus.
What? That is probably the best hatch
of the last decade. I mean, people say, oh, the a 45
but it's it's too highly strategy, highly strong, Focus RS. Yep.
All drive to recharge. See that many though?
Do you see a little bit? I mean, maybe I just ignore
them. And I noticed an odd look so
busy looking at the hulls everywhere of Asia.
I mean I was at starting at 20 and 29 but yeah, but You see a lot more. A 45 AMG is, and you do the new
Focus RS it. I see a 45 degree 45 the way.
It wouldn't 100K a 90k. I don't close.
Watch is a focus. And also the Fiesta ST which is
which is a great little car but getting onto more Japanese stuff. Boo the Mitsubishi Evo 10.
But the final Edition so that was a ten.
Yeah, you return. The final addition just to Evo
10 started in the in then in the naughties.
But the final decision was like their last hurrah, and it ended up I was early 2000s, was it? Like 2000.
So like 2009. I think the Evo 10 came out of
2008, one of the two so early 2010 somewhere.
Yeah, but then the final days you come in like 16 or 17.
Oh, okay. We may have been 18 actually
like the last, the last Evo that they did rare car, really cool car. You know, it's it's a lot of
like that era of relly bread, yakaza Mitsubishi, they're not going to do anything like that anymore because it's gonna be making crossovers Mazda. MX-5 I've RF with the two later,
so current shape, crunchy in deism, tractable Fastback, really like them or can they argue?
They're good-looking car and apparently, they drive really well. So, what's sure on them?
When they first came out? I love the sort of look like.
Yeah, that looks great with a tiger.
Anything that goes in the boot and then the more I look at them, like I don't do that roof. I think I'd just go normal
convertible. Like, I just soft up.
Yeah. Okay.
That's fair. I haven't driven one of the new
one. It's got extra weight though,
being that. Yeah but I reckon it's the
concept that's fair. But a good car nonetheless.
Great car. What about you guys?
What's next on your list only had one car.
One kind of last ten years that I'll go and buy terrain.
Shaking his head. What color would it be that I
was excited. You know I thought what was I
excited to see? You know, and like cross the
road to look at one when I first saw it?
So I think this is who could you many the new gym in Eugene?
Yeah, that's the only guy that's really excited.
Me new. You know what?
The Audi R8. I just nothing you've said that
before. Actually like weird one another
One that came into work and I was looking at it's one of the newer ones and you felt nothing just, you know you said do I have a tingle in the groin, or region from this car?
The answer was no I just no movement.
There was no movement. What about the GT86?
Because it was a game-changing car.
Exactly. Like it's not the best car but
it's a good. Yeah.
It's a very good car and it allowed kind of that Revival of a nice. We will drive Sports, little
spoon. It's not affordable sports
audible. Yeah.
Whatever they 30. Normal one is 31, this early 30s
was like, it's yeah, it's very attainable.
So very attainable. It's cheaper than a mix 5 and
that's what people said. Well I could buy one of these
instead of enemies fire. They quite modifiable as well.
Like Easily tweet, they are. Yeah, I mean, the off the
markets that was just crazy. Like, I'm the year that came
out, people just those are really just everything for.
Yeah, that's sort of what I thought, but the latest gen is coming out with a turbo. So it's finally people are just
like, like Toyota and Subaru of listen to us that they're bringing the turbo version of that car.
Hmm. In the next gen.
Yes, it is. So well, they say I was 190
kilowatts, they promised what is it now, what's this?
Dad was like 150. But you got to rivet hard like
I've driven one, you got to really get on it and just bring it to think to get anything out of them which if you are just having fun in a windy road. Yeah they're great.
That can be a great time but since you're not doing that all the time as a daily, I feel you kind of being disappointed all the time. They're not.
I mean I was going well first time I drove one.
I drove pausing. He's got it.
He's going to GDs series to on the show.
He's coming here a few times. I drove his one.
And from all the cancer models reading but instead all the gutless going to talk and I talk and I talk and I talk they weren't that bad that she felt quite nice to drive like it didn't feel super like like didn't feel like there was nothing down below. I mean you know 3,000 RPM but
like you could actually take off and drive quite nice because some cars for example, like when I drove you w XL and I'm going to go to wxia but you always do. Please do.
But yours be. The too late.
I like it felt like download my laser had more power.
I did it nothing. Nothing worse for sure.
As soon as you come past two-and-a-half, it starts coming in and 3604 the peak is. Yeah.
Whereas with the laser I noticed, I was actually quite surprised because I just need to give it a little bit and I'd get, you know what? I need out of it.
What I didn't realize was that was actual Les have to give.
Yeah, but I think it was felt that way because it's like car, If there wasn't anything heavier, it'd be like, yes, crop. But I think the might afford
that if for Driving Experience is really, really good.
Handling wise is pretty damn, pretty damn good.
Like I don't really have a lot of complaints that car, except if you get 150 new duper good tires on it because it hides from their Factory. Crap, what ties do they have
from prettiest eyes? So like, they got like the
really crappy. What did you say?
Prius pressed? I like the echo tires.
Are they don't then the actual ones they put in the previous On the ACT, I got the actual one, but like effect on them.
I've got the bigger wheel but they still got the crappy ties.
But then now the put bigger tires on with the TRD package you can buy from from Toyota Racing developed.
We were racing developments and stuff.
What's that, Tyrone? No matter what you say, Taro,
what's better than a compass? I'll, you know, I might talk to
you then. You know, what's a car?
That's not a lot of people like, but I actually have a model.
Is what do you like Adrian? The Jaguar F-Type.
Oh, I can't believe you said that, my friend at work, is it's behind me. We're having this discussion
about cars. While I stand easy because your
mind is Jaguar F-Type. I love the look of that car.
You don't lines. Sounds amazing.
Yeah. Satan knows how they did
something wrong. You're definitely sexy car.
They're good-looking car. Put some guy here, my stash.
Now I've got great year. Screw you, terrain to you.
Go back to your Jeep. All right, Jesus Jegs, we got
Alum. You know, I'm not huge on all
the Europeans. I do like my Mercedes.
But apart from that, you know, it is what it is.
I want to throw down the alpha rho.
Mayor quadrifoglio. I can't pronounce it.
What? Very foggy out for you.
I can't. I can't do detailing, but, but
you mean the Julia? Yes.
The Julia the photo on. Yeah.
Except the price of come a long way of like.
But in terms of, I'm just watching at straws here.
Ha, ha ha. But I look, if I was given a
Julia and I really like the quadrifoglio can, cause everyone's like it's a Ferrari divide, their, I've murdered, you know that nothing no nothing and and that's why it's like, it's a car that you would expect from from them, but you would expect from them because that's what they kind of do.
But anyway, although I agree with you on that one, Like if I was given a standard Julia, be quite sad because you know, you want that twin-turbo V6? Well you pull up next to like a
like a quadrifoglio interval. Okay.
You be like yeah I'm going to hang my head in shame.
It's not like I didn't see that four leaf clover they like okay it's a it was made to compete I guess with you know the M3s and c63s and stuff. Yeah it's just I don't know if I
can no but the the co-stars are probably those very well-liked.
In terms of like in my Affairs. Well, like, I don't know, but it
looks far more beautiful than anything.
They're offering in my opinion, if it like, does the Same by love to hear and I'm still not sold on the front end, very could be better, but still give me a closer look at that.
But, you know, I was it's also, they also make the best-looking SUV. Not that I'd buy an SUV but then
make what I would like. But the story is based off that
anyway. Yeah, it's all that, that same
that same chassis, just getting back to the 86.
It's they remember to 05:55 16. Let's not that, that's all what
amazing is it? But that's just, you bet your
base run but on Tops on, in terms of the quadrifoglio, the reviews are really good but people that have reflect review them have had issues with them as well, being an alpha.
Its long-term test, not so good. Yes.
Just like some by 1 plus was going to buy one I think but I don't know if you actually went through with it, look at that.
In that beautiful white, black silver, whatever it is, it does look good. It's a beautiful-looking.
Cast not unlike a 3 Series from the rear like that.
Wreath recorder is not unlike the current 3 Series.
He's going to Cactus. Are you looking at a cactus you
back saying? Okay, so buttery research.com.
He said that the Citroen C4 Cactus is one of the best cars of the decade. Ha ha ha, he said that murdering
people who are these people admiring research getting him on the show on a pick their brains, next one for me.
The first time I saw on, I was Absolutely blown away.
And then I smitten. And then I sat in one and then I
was like, oh, let me guess. Yeah.
Is that your Lexus yours on about that stupid total thing with a 5 liter motor. There's a called diet,
I mean, the fact that you can get that as a hybrid If we don't be stupid for you environmental but the normalcy 500, the finish on that car is like I reckon Second To None.
The materials just feel beautiful interior was just stunning, it's a car. That's the car that when you
certain you're like, man I wish I could afford an elf, a nothing. Don't do it justice.
When you, when you, when you see it in person, you be like, okay, I get why many jail? I just got there doing something
right with the n a 5-liter V8. You know, they've kept it going.
Yeah. The only keeping in that respect
because you can go get it. Aston Martin V8.
Vantage instead, I don't want to But I'm not going to spare
Castaneda Niche, it is a little bit of a, but as the models cost more and it's going to break and Alexis, you know, how much is an LC 537 second hand, though, what do we do?
Mary, what's the the pricing on LC?
What's up LC by one the cheapest one, what would have a look at that butt? I reckon they are just a
stunning car, all the reviews were at a good.
I like I'm not one for the say, all the reviews are good must be good when I sat in one and like I was still a bit unsure until I sat in one of the groin or reaction when you saw, I'm in like it was just you can't ask him stuff out there.
He gets tingles when he sees Second hand, is that as cheap as they go, what's the harm? There's any hybrids for sale on
at this one, for sale 211 LC 500 H.
But it's just that. It's a very, it's just a bunch
of 28 is, was 17 at 128. That's the cheapest, 138 131.
So they still, are they still up there?
But when you sit in that car, it feels like money.
Like it feels like a, it feels like it was built for a purpose to be a luxury Cruiser, that you go down the highway in engine and a running five, little natural aspirated V8 I do love that motor. It is a beautiful later VA, so,
you know, eventually it looks a bit like a tease Tech inside, you know, the way the door joins up with the dash, like it looks a little bit retro, you know, the interior Mon Ami of a 80s Honda Legend because the doors. Yeah, go go around that way.
Yeah, for the same amount of money, you can get a V12 5.9
liter petrol. Aston Martin V12 Vantage, hmm,
it's a 2014 model and it has 18,000 kilometers on the clock.
Tough choice, buddy, boy, there's a manual.
One or I stand by my eyes, there's a 20-17 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Red Bull Racing Edition for a hundred ninety nine, thousand dollars. I stand by my, let's the 4.7
liter V8, I stand by my lasagna made you stand by was that?
Well that we have to wrap up. Used to it every time we have of
the pluralist if any if anyone's got anything else to say to us was a needless, come on, don't make a better idea, right?
Adrian, Adrian. Ego already said, that's the
mountain, All the Way Tyrone. What do you got last 10 years?
What do you find? That's it.
Any other honorable mentions? No I've only got that letter
from the from the Hilton where we did something.
Right with the LaFerrari apart from the fact of this, it's like unobtanium. Like, the last ten years.
It's been the last 10 years. That's that's fine.
All right. What did the critics?
And they did the what we call it.
The other one, the water Johnny Johnny's, because what's the name as a gamma you've got the Pagani rights I think I thought I got wonder how my brother if money was no object and you walk into Lubbock and you get it you can go buy any car, you want it at the one that I would still buy within a heartbeat 575 Maranello. You like those seven last 10
years? You know, it's not within the
last thing is excluded excluded. Going to have like people use
these costs seriously it's going to be billionaires that just want to do dumb things and how I do it.
That sounds concert in the showroom.
Have my little glass of wine a little bit of cheese sweetheart you know he's really surprising this a YouTuber gone around his name is Manny and he's got that many hypercars not supercars hyper cars that are all like specced out and he drives him like he's good too worried but he's got like there's parts that are all in 24. Of gold.
He's got a she respect. That is already 24 karat gold,
copper pads on and then he bought another Sheeran.
Got it. So he bought a new one.
That is a white one. And that steamed up with home is
which they're made out of me, is really expensive.
What I like that? Yeah.
Look, at least he's driving the cars.
I'm less interested in the like other branding and gold plating and stuff but I can appreciate the fact that somebody that owns these expensive cars drive them as long as like if Jay Leno by Zircon, it's always a good time because, you know, he's probably gonna go to program, have a go at it, it's really sad.
The mechanics that work from are gonna have a fun time with a couple of these are my couple of honorable, mentions mentions, the last gen GT3 RS. Because apparently that's just
like a jab poker. Are you sure?
It's our last chance. They're with us because they
keep saying that's going to be the last, they're all the same, like John Farnham, just one more time.
For the money on the track. It's just the best fun.
Want to give another shout-out to Kia because key is changes.
This last decade they've come. Yeah, I know, I know I'm getting
kicked away now. I just had a little cough,
they're quite boys. But the key is Stinger, is a
belter of a car. So, and it's, it's good to see
that the company. Like, that's like saying okay,
well, you know, we can build some fun stuff, too.
I like to hinder I30, what it is?
Yes, that was my next thing, yes, that was - I know it's a Kia but that's it's doesn't matter like how you guys are, you know, and they going on the track and they doing it.
But you have to understand is they're having a guy, Ikea, you have to live with the turnaround and love it because it's a seven-year warranty. Then I slowly cares about, but
do lie kids about seven year warranty.
If you don't care about the warranty, you get in this car with what a 270 to kill whales for about 60.
And assuming you wanted your actually take on the people with their Most girls you can see 63 is and what not you can put about 10 into it and you'll get a better, another hundred kilowatts. So I'm not denying that the not
a quick car. What I'm saying is it's a Kia.
What I'm saying is you have to live with the fact that you pulled a cure. Yeah.
But you have to live with the fact that you've bought an M3 that does around and exactly, I've somehow the side, open your mind Adrian, it's I feel small like a mathematical equation where the car's performance has to justify the bad.
Judge hurt Farrah turbo in the story.
But okay, all right, doesn't exist, old sheet thousand kilowatt says otherwise straight machine, how was it?
So yeah, that's what you're going to spend the rest of your life. Begging Atomic xi6 to make you
engines and stuff. Like I don't know because I
don't want that. I'm just saying.
Yes, Matthew yeah, no, no no, no vs Commodore what you wanted. No, I really want to like the
latest jin-tae pass if we talk about, but I just can't.
I'm step. All right now, I just can't like
I do I know dude resumes and John's right?
Agree on. Just right.
I just, I just cannot I couldn't live with that every day and the angle that would get hail damage.
Or even tell ya. It's it's like fate square.
There's angles, everyone on what's going on.
It's just someone didn't my can't back into it.
Or is that factory? I think that's just an tell us.
Just how are you? I'd gone for a service and I'll
be like, you know, your car's hell damage for the last three months. Yeah, imagine a pedal beta.
Just put the poor bastard panel, beater.
It gets one of those in a neck. She has to put it back to
factory no more car. They'll be like that's not how
it came to smooth. The workmanship is beautiful,
but it's not ask me to be sorry for I always kind of had a soft spot for the CR-Z.
I was looking to mention that I'd because it's like a CRX but a hybrid it's newer and hybrid and terrible.
I don't think they're that bad Civic Type R instead of see.
I said they were good. Look at you.
Is nothing short of a wanker. back to like,
When I was able to afford them there with nothing now they worth 10 grand. Well the gone up he has box if
it's like out of my thousand dollar range.
Where I buy my right? Funk I drove on the other day.
My friend Daniel sorry. 8086 black limited.
Did you see touch one of them? It's like 70 grand.
Yes, wow. Um, what time to be alive, 86 is
a date. Just repeat, whatever.
You know, food, there was one that was for sale.
There was one that was for sale, that was 17 grand, which is cheap, one of them these days. And the reason why nobody has
bought it is because it is quite a famous car in Australia.
It's not even trust. No, no.
It's quite a famous chemist area.
Where was that? The brown one that It was all
those drifting of the Escape Route, you take an 89, it's not completely there but it's only, you know, 7089 yeah, it's the old shack.
That's nine grand. So we'll start a GoFundMe,
please donate. Any laws card guy?
How about you guys? Sell your free cars and you'll
be able to afford it or you leave them out in the hell.
I'm not that we would contend that any other any other cars before we end up on the show called, that's it.
I think we do. There's no cars but there's
something I do want to mention quickly.
No, you gonna tell us what color you wanted to buy.
No, it's okay, so, such luck. It just popped up on Facebook
and I was writing about it. There is a Buick GNX, which is
the one that came out and it was an 80s 80s.
Here, they were the ones that came out with the V6 turbos manuals, great cars and neither automatic nor other order sweaters. And I know there was any way,
there was one. That's okay.
There is one that has been at the Buick dealership with 200,000 miles on it. Okay, I've seen this car.
Just get all the story anyway. It was at the Buick dealership.
Yes. Since new never been sold and
it's just been sold now. 450,000 dollars.
Well sure. Showroom demo.
