All-round tyres is proud to provide umchongs and sco-spineers.
You can fit two sausage rolls in one hand.
I've bought a Lamborghini Glace.
Hello, and welcome back to the Cars Rule Everything Around Me podcast with myself, Will,
Edwin, to the right of me. Hello.
Just no one behind the camera today.
No one.
I may ask AI to do an artistic recreation of where Ben is right now, but he's not
behind the camera. Ben is in Mallorca.
He's just straight up holidaying.
He's so rich.
Ignoring our messages.
Just left.
Searching for Spanish emergency services to block.
Anyway, we'll get on to a little bit more Ben bullying a little bit later on,
probably.
He's not here to defend himself, so it's great.
It's nothing he can do.
But before that, at the beginning of every single one of these podcasts,
we ask ourselves, to Cars Rule, of ruin everything around us.
Would you like to...
It's a ruin.
It's a ruin.
It is a ruin.
A for what is behind me.
So for those of you not blessed with sight, behind us, we have a Nissan 300ZX,
which I bought alongside Jack from all the gear.
We went 50-50 on this car.
Back when it was at Carthorough.
This car is a Carthorough car.
It was going to get scrapped because the company wasn't going to do anything with it.
So we said, give us a go on then.
We'll give you some money.
That's the actual recording of Jack Joyce saying that.
So yeah, we bought the car and it sat for years.
We thought, today, now is the time to get it back up and going.
But it's not been going well.
Yeah, it's been...
Everything that could have got...
Nothing's gone like badly wrong.
No.
Which is very small.
It's just very small.
Yeah, because it's an older car where there's bits like,
oh, sorry, you haven't got the 1991 version of that.
Therefore, it doesn't fit.
So this car was supposed to be done by the end of today.
Today's Friday.
This engine is still a part.
Now that the other thing is I bought these wheels.
Really nice BBSRG wheels.
They're like a period optional thing on lots of Japanese cars.
And I didn't check that the sandball was correct.
And so I had to have the machined out.
And now they're too close to the caliper.
So now I need to get some spacers.
So it's all going well.
It's going well.
And then worse than that is that last night was on the way home
and I was going off a hill in my M3.
And I could hear pinging.
Pinging?
Pinging.
Pinging.
People's playing ping pong in the back.
No, pinging, which is another word for detonation,
which happens when the head gasket is starting to go on M3s,
which they go a lot.
They don't go with coolant.
You don't blow a head gasket like with coolant.
You blow it between cylinders.
So that noise is the compression leaking between the cylinders.
I need to get that checked.
So I was excited to bring it to the Chelsea Walsh,
which is happening this weekend.
But the time you've heard this, that will have happened.
But I didn't bring the M3 because that's broken.
That is a tough one.
Any other, no other issues across the fleet?
No.
550 search?
550 search.
No update from Jeremy.
Jeremy, he's playing hot and cold with me.
I've been, I've been,
it's probably because I'm sending him upwards of five emails a day.
How's it going, Jeremy?
Any, any, any progress on that?
We, we moving along or?
Cute morning texts from Edwin.
You, Jeremy, how's France?
You up yet?
It's just to be insurance call or?
The head gasket thing, that is a tough one.
Yeah, it's a tough one.
Ben's going to be listening to that going, yeah.
You laughed at me.
You all laughed at me.
So yeah, it's, no, it's,
we're up in some ways and down in others.
So, hey, that's with all weeks.
I'm going to go with the rule.
Okay.
For a car that I'll mention in a sec.
Other than that, it would have been a ruin because again,
we've got a Chelsea water coming up on Sunday.
It was quite looking forward to that.
And the plan was, is that I was going to take my,
well, I was going to take potential new car
that I will mention.
And if that wasn't ready, I would take my McGann.
And also alongside that, we would have the Jaguar XFR
transported there.
So that can go up the hill as well,
because it sounds very, very cool.
None of those options have worked out.
I will be going in the Range Rover
and probably walking up the hill at this stage.
Oh, we should also say there is the RS6 coming.
But, and that video might not have gone out yet.
We won't spoil it fully.
But there's a bill to get that car going.
There is a bill.
And it's six figures.
No, five figures.
Six figures.
Six figures is a hundred pounds.
It could be six figures.
Maths with TDC never goes well.
Five figures and not, not in a good way.
Well, yeah, we'll leave that for the video,
but that is a cool car.
It's very good.
We really like that car.
But speaking of cool cars,
now Ben's not here.
Also, let's quickly get a check on Ben.
Ben, is it rural or ruin?
Nice one.
Anyway, I think it's ruined probably.
Shall I actually rig it?
Shall I ring it quickly?
Where is it?
Where is it going to be?
Let's disturb his holiday.
Let's let's upset.
New Yorker time right now.
Now let's get a quick Benjamin on the call.
He might, he might be really upset by this.
New Yorker time.
It's only 10 past seven.
It's 10 past seven.
He's out with dinner.
He's got a couple of sangrias.
He's all right.
He's out with dinner.
He's, he's thinking,
I haven't heard from all week.
It's been incredible.
Well, well, well.
No, how do you format this SD card?
I'm joking, Ben.
It's not, it's not for that.
Benjamin, is it a rural or ruin this week?
Is it a podcast?
It's a podcast, mate.
No, it's actually a ruin.
I haven't even driven a car for a week, but.
Okay.
But is it, has it been peaceful?
Has it been tranquil?
Do you know what?
Yeah, it has because I haven't,
I haven't had a car to worry about.
I thought you were going to say,
because you have,
I thought you were going to say,
because you haven't, you two haven't been here.
Well, also that, to be fair.
Okay.
And in the last, in the last,
I've got home in it by the last half an hour.
And I'm now trying to chase him up.
You're back in England.
Oh, sorry.
He's here and he's not on the podcast.
You're back in England.
So, so where's that edit?
And you're not here.
That's what I'm going to ask you the same question.
Okay.
Cool.
Well, I'm glad you're home safe.
But yes, thank you.
Thank you very much, Ben.
We just want to check in.
We can't do it without you.
I don't know.
I appreciate that.
Have a good one.
I hope you have a great one.
Good day.
Bye.
Bye.
There we go, folks.
So he's landed in the UK and he hasn't,
he didn't, he didn't ask.
Also, he would have landed in Heathrow.
He drove past there.
Drive straight past us.
Crazy.
Ben's not here because you've been keeping a secret from Ben.
We've all been attempting to keep a secret from Ben.
I have an inkling that he knows.
He knows.
He knows because he's been,
he's been suspecting something for a while.
I've bought a Lamborghini glass.
Well, it's actually, it was a few weeks ago.
It's the car was miles away in Scotland.
So it's all being, being arranged
and it's meant to be being delivered on Wednesday.
So the day before this goes out.
So the day before this goes out.
So, which is why this can happen.
So Ben wouldn't have seen this cut for the podcast
and he would have seen it in person.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We hope so.
So what's the story?
Tell the story.
So, well, in the background, searching for one,
a manual one, a yellow one.
There's been some others.
Manuals don't come up very, very often.
No, not good ones any.
Well, no, manuals really.
So I've been searching in the background.
I've had absolutely every search going
and actually it was a few podcasts ago.
It's probably about a month,
maybe five weeks ago.
We filmed a podcast, finished podcast,
looked at my phone, saw a notification that just said
it was a piston heads one, I think, that said,
new cars, new search results available.
Gallardo in Aberdeen.
It was on some horrible wheels,
but it was the perfect Gallardo.
I'll put it up for right now.
It'll be on the site.
Oh, it's still on the site.
Okay.
And I just sent them a message straight away.
I was like, I didn't even know how it was going to happen,
but I was like, I need to just message them and get in with it.
The next morning, they sent me...
The peaceful thing called finance would have to happen, right?
The next morning, I got a call from them.
They basically sent me loads of videos.
Because again, this car was like 10 hours from me.
You're in America.
You're going, hell, that's just down the road, buddy.
Oh, look at that.
That's so good.
So the color is?
Color is Jellomidas, I believe.
Which is a couple of other ones,
which is a super like a pearly yellow.
Imagine an early Gallardo.
And it's got your favorite wheels on earth.
Yeah.
It's got the wheels that I really hate.
I was rather hoping that those wheels would really put people off
and I thought, no, I was going to want this.
When I got a call from the guy, he said,
and again, some of this might be sales field,
but I've met the guys.
I don't think it's that.
And they said, this is one of the most popular cars we've had.
It like off the bat.
And they had, I was the second person to inquire about it.
And as soon as he told me that,
I was like, I will give you a deposit right now.
Please.
And then since then, I've been trying to sort it out.
I've been to see it.
It is just amazing.
I've been so excited by it.
I only have two photos of it.
I took one photo of the back and one of the front,
so I could send it to my mom and to my dad,
to my girlfriend up there.
And other than that, all I've just been doing
is looking at these photos, going, wow.
I keep showing my girlfriend, going, look at that.
I know this guy.
I was there.
Yeah, it's cool.
And I go, it's a Lamborghini.
It's a Lamborghini.
And it is a gated manual.
Gated manual with very, very, it's like 10,000 miles,
which is, which worried me a little bit,
but it means to me, that is to a collector,
that's wow, but that way, and it'll make money.
To me, I now have a ceiling.
Put loads of miles on it and be at the same as everyone else.
I'll be at the same as everyone else.
So yeah, it's straight piped, very, very loud.
I need to sort that out.
I always make more wheels for it.
Make it louder.
Yeah, yeah, make it louder.
I actually don't think it can get louder.
You showed the video, the video, the basin,
which is the car is in the distance
and you can't see it yet.
And it's as if it's going past you.
And then it comes around the corner
as a spec in the distance.
I took my girlfriend, we flew up to Aberdeen
and to go and look at the car, basically,
after I'd agreed to buy it, which is a great idea.
I would have been sold on it either way.
And he started it because Paul, who was dealing with it,
says that the Auto Lounge, he said to me, he's like,
it's loud. I said, that's fine.
He said, no, it's loud.
It's loud.
I was like, okay.
And then he started it up and it wasn't a warehouse
and it's disgustingly loud.
So that might, which I was 18, great.
And your neighbors just a few feet away from?
Yeah, kind of connected to your house.
Yeah, they should be, they should be fine with it.
They should be fine with it.
Doris, do you like the 5-liter over the 5-2?
My next door neighbor has a Morgan.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
That's sort of loud, but I don't think he'd appreciate.
No.
You know, a sort of GT3 car starting up on the next door neighbor.
But yeah, hopefully it should be here Wednesday.
It needs a small issue fixing.
I'm very scared.
But so we have, well, you have, but with the aid of all of us
being trying to keep it from Ben, because Ben keeps going,
well, when you're buying a Colorado van
and it became funny to try and keep it from Ben.
Yeah.
I don't even know why, but it's just, it is funny.
It's funny.
It's nice.
But there's, there was, there've been a couple of slip-ups.
Taylor, Taylor, Taylor did and went,
when are you getting this Colorado?
Well, and then we went, we went.
So, um, when one comes up, yeah.
Whenever one comes up, I'll look into it, you know.
And then, well, there's been a couple of Instagram stories recently
that one was a, there was a holy story that we both did.
And I mentioned that I'd just flown to see a car
and Ben sent me a message and sent,
just flown to see a car.
He sent the Dokes meme from next to that.
And I got, I got out of it on that one.
I think he said, okay, you've wiggled your way out of this one.
And then I posted about asking you about car storage,
which I think I'm still looking for at this stage.
And he, and I put a picture of the McGann on for good reason.
Good, good.
Diversion.
And he said, hmm,
interest.
Reeks of galardo in here.
So Ben may see it arrive and say it and just go, oh.
It'll go, yeah, no, I was, I already rug up the show room
and got them to give me your address.
So yeah, that should happen next week.
I'm very excited.
But that is, that is incredible.
Already bought wheels for it.
Yep. Originals.
Original wheels, tires.
Spaces, of course.
Spaces are ordered as well.
There's a few bits needed.
It's been like slightly modified in a way that I'm not that keen on,
but it's all reversible stuff.
But yeah, huge.
Absolutely huge.
One half of the cream dream car lineup done.
Jeremy, mate, come on.
Come on, brother.
Although actually, not regrettably,
because I'm very much looking forward to the galardo.
In the last week, a Mercy Largo came up in a,
what would almost be the perfect fashion.
This was a Japanese car.
Yep.
No history at the auctions.
I think the starting price was about 108,000 US dollars,
which is obviously a hell of a lot.
But bearing in mind in the UK,
these are selling at three, 400,000 pounds now
for a manual one.
They had yellow seats, which you liked.
I thought it was kind of cool.
I wasn't so keen on,
but these are things you can change.
Other than that, it was absolutely perfect.
But Japanese auctions are really,
I found out two days before the auction started,
it's difficult to do anything about that
when there's already a galardo on the way.
So if you thought that and you paid 8.50, good luck.
Also, horrible financial ruin to get a galardo.
Oh, let me put it one step further.
Let me get the mafia involved in a loan shark.
I did have someone almost immediately
asked to buy the galardo from me.
I talked to a specialist and he went,
Oh, is that a 10,000 mile gated manual galardo?
Yeah, you went, sounds mad, but would you sell it?
Because that's Rob from Strataspares who said,
Hey, I could also, because I said,
sell Ferrari parts.
So you can find some 550 parts.
You can put one together for me.
I can, but they will still be expensive.
Okay, great.
TDC's, well, Creamer's really moved,
moved from ship boxes to very expensive cars.
And it's quite worrying.
I can't, yeah.
I'm very extremely worried about it.
But don't worry if you're listening to this going,
Oh, I want to see there's a Fira.
Hey, we're more probably more excited
about the Zafira than the other stuff.
That is coming.
It's coming.
You brought me here.
I'm a massive creamer.
Yeah.
So I was, I was filling up the other day at the petrol station
and a man, I was on the far left side of the pumps at Tesco's,
which is the self fill up thing.
A man pulled up a TT on the far right.
I forget.
I don't know.
I don't think I got your name when he came over,
but he said he was on the complete other side of the petrol station
and he shouted from the other side of the petrol station,
I'm a massive creamer.
And everyone in the petrol station looked over,
kind of a little bit worried, but more confused
and kind of angry towards me,
towards the person that they, the person he had said it to.
So I got quite a lot of worried looks there.
I love it.
I think it's funny.
You're a creamer.
Why is he shouting at that man?
It turns out he doesn't watch the podcast.
Are they having fun?
He doesn't watch the podcast at all.
He was just letting something else.
He's just letting me know.
But yeah, shout out to you for letting me know.
Say it slightly more peacefully.
It was aggressive the way he said it.
It should almost feel like it should be a bit more discreet.
You do it secretly go, by the way, I'm a massive creamer.
Huge creamer.
No, not across the floor.
You have a massive creamer.
It's not to be shouted, it's to be just subtle.
We're an underground society.
Being a creamer is...
You speak in hushed tones.
First rule of creaming, don't talk about creaming.
We don't talk about cream club.
Next up on here we have Too Fast, If You're Us Mustang.
Yes, I've got no idea what this is in reference to.
I watched Too Fast If You're Us.
Here's one I made earlier.
I attempted to...
Is it this right here?
It is.
It's just Selene.
It's a Selene S281.
Which I think it looks cool in there.
I love it.
Because it's one of the few cars in that film that aren't mad, mad.
Like in terms of graphics and stuff.
Whereas like the Evo looks like ass.
Yeah.
But that, I thought, looks quite nice.
I remember what...
Sorry, actually you care a lot.
No, mine's an anecdote to add to it.
Oh fair.
Well, I'll tell you my only thought again.
I tried to watch...
I did watch Too Fast If You're Us.
I thought, let me have them.
I'll watch it with my girlfriend.
Do you mean the best movie I've ever made?
Yeah.
Yeah, Ben's going...
I actually believe that.
That's my favorite movie.
It's not my favorite movie, but it is.
I can easily watch the first 20 to 25 minutes.
After that, I get...
A little bit, yeah.
I'm sort of Eva Mendes.
Anyway.
But anyway, there's Mustang that I'm trying to get to.
What a horrific death.
For what he's actually...
Like I don't know if it's...
I don't actually know what rating it is.
But it's not...
It's a 13.
Yeah, it's nothing mad.
That is like...
That's an awful way to die.
That's final destination.
Yeah.
For those of you that haven't seen it,
there are two trucks, two 18-wheelers, big rigs,
driving along in, for some reason, the far right lane,
and then the far...
Well, in our four-lane motorway, on the third lane.
So there's a space in between.
Straight up, I think that's illegal.
I'm pretty sure.
I know it's illegal here.
Maybe it's not illegal in America.
But one...
The protagonists ying up the middle of the two trailers,
and then for some reason,
they start both merging into the middle lane,
the Mustang gets caught on the back wheel
and slides under the rear wheels of the truck.
The truck trailer goes over the top
and crashes the roof in on the sling.
Dead.
You're dead.
You're done.
Dead.
I actually...
You're turned into a piece of gammon.
And then a C5 Corvette crashes into
what was left of the Mustang and rolls.
I watched it.
I thought...
Which wasn't scripted, by the way.
I've seen this a million times,
and I just thought,
no, it's actually...
He's dead.
He's dead.
He's dead.
That is a full death in this bus.
He's just dead.
I wonder if the editor, they looked at us and went,
Jesus.
Also, the way it starts is like,
yeah, bend over, boy.
Yeah.
Running, chasing.
And then, yeah.
Then scene act two, going to kill a man.
No, he's just dead.
Yeah.
Like obliterated.
Yeah.
And then after that, they're going to...
Everyone's going to pull up
and they're going to be happy
and they're going to be cheering again.
But open cast kit, forget it.
But we won't forget about the death.
Yeah, he's dead.
But yeah, that car, that's quite cool.
That car, there was a Craig Liebman video on it.
It was...
They wanted more cars for more variety,
which is why all of that race was kind of put in.
And that car, Celine, actually provided.
It's painted.
I want to say it's called Liz Stick,
instead of Liz Stick.
Because the wife of Celine, man,
Celine man, is Celine Dion,
is called Liz.
Again, don't know why I know that.
But yeah, that car was provided
and they wrecked, they had a real one
and then two fakes.
And the one that got crushed,
the guy that also, the one that got crushed,
got rebuilt.
I know that as a fact.
Yeah.
That's kind of weird.
But yeah, that was a thought about that film.
Also, again, watching that,
there was the scene where
Mr. Walker, Mr. O'Connor and Mr. Gibson,
they go to a party.
No, it wasn't.
Just a take off.
Right.
Just a take off.
Right, O'Connor and Paul Walker.
And they go to a party by a thing
and there's lots of women and there's cars.
And then my girlfriend,
this is when she lost interest,
she just looked at me and went,
I can see why you liked this movie.
It's a child.
Hey man.
Look, that's a child.
Yeah.
I'm watching it right now.
That's, there are so many good quotes.
Ben's missing out.
Ben is.
I don't care if you,
I get it.
If you're like a,
watch movies for the plot supposition.
I much prefer a Slovakian movie in black and white.
Honestly, it's amazing.
It's not about that at the same,
but Too Fast If You're Us is a fun movie.
Yeah.
Both of these things wired up like I've never seen before.
Even if you don't take it seriously,
you go, that's a cheesy line.
Yeah.
I will quite,
I will quite often say to people who've never watched Fast and Furious,
let's see if you've got the balls kid.
And they will often be just completely baffled.
Real funny, Fonzie.
Alien inferno.
This could, this podcast could be at least
Too Fast If You're Us length,
of course.
Getting them ever so slightly wrong.
Yeah.
It's just slightly wrong.
You've put in a Toyota or,
sorry, Toyota turns.
Oh, I'm assuming it's Toyota.
That is, I was in the,
I went to go and collect these wheels the other day.
And I was in the old Land Cruiser,
the, it's like a 98 Amazon Land Cruiser,
the one that the guys have got,
actually might be newer anyway.
And across from me at Junction was a 2025 plate
Aorus or something.
And I realized our indicators
were moving at the exact same speed.
Nice.
Identical.
But that implies Toyota has never changed the speed
of their indicator signals,
which makes sense.
Why would you?
Is there like an industry standard?
But I've never, but they're not,
because then sometimes you see them
they go out of sync with another car.
So it's satisfying when you get them in sync
and then they move out.
I don't know why, why does that happen?
But so manufacturers are different,
but do they then change over time?
Does some new Coda come in and go,
I don't like the 0.2 seconds.
I'm moving to a 0.25.
That's always a blink of an eye if possible.
But crazy, Toyota just said,
choose one.
Keep it.
Keep it.
That's the same.
And that'll be the same for 20 years.
Even if the car's old.
Yeah, same.
1930s Toyota.
No matter the bulb.
Same.
Make it LED.
Make it the same.
The next one, I can't read out loud.
No, because it would spoil it.
Again, same trip I was driving.
And I don't know about you,
but I quite often like,
I like looking into other people's cars.
Oh, I see.
I'm a peeping Tom, as it were.
People watch.
I'm a caring Tom.
And I saw one of the most incredible ones I've ever seen.
And my girlfriend will back this up,
because I said,
is that what I think that is?
She looked over and went,
my God, yes that is.
We'd left the services.
It was a man in a small van,
like a sight hand or like a combo van.
And he was dual wielding two sausage rolls in his hand.
Hell.
Now, not, you could quite, I could say, right,
cream classic line,
you can fit two sausage rolls in one hand.
Well, I don't know why you need to.
Right.
Could you not just finish one?
Also, one could be put down.
But he had, he was holding at 10 and two,
but like with the backs of his hands,
because the fronts were holding two sausage rolls
behind the steering wheel.
But the interesting thing,
one was in the bag, one was not.
One was loose.
One was just crumbs everywhere.
Just a straight up pastry,
just pastry sausage roll in hand, bagging the other.
That's, that's, that is psychotic.
And I, we were alongside him for long enough
to know that it wasn't like he was just picking one up
and putting one down.
He was rolling.
He was riding it out.
That's how I'm driving.
He was straight up raw dog in two sausage rolls in hand.
I'm on the motorway for the next 50 miles.
Let's eat boys.
He's probably listening going,
what's wrong with that?
I don't get it.
I had three at one point.
He is, he is exercising his free will.
Can, can I hold two sausage rolls?
Do I have two hands on the wheel?
Officer, is it illegal?
Oh, it is.
I'm sorry.
Sorry, my hands need to touch the wheel,
not the sausage rolls.
Excellent.
But I, I love that.
I love looking,
I love looking at what people are doing.
And that's one of the most bizarre things in cars.
Really incredible.
I can't, I think we talked about this before,
but it's the people that are on the phone in the car.
And I look at it and it's a 2025 car.
Yeah.
You have the ability.
You have Bluetooth.
You have this or that they have the face time
and people doing wild things.
So that's, that's a classic.
So I'm going to keep my out for more,
but dual sausage roll, a Kimbo sausage rolls,
hard to beat.
Now the creamers must have some stories.
But if you have, if you have a scene in public,
a scene, a candid driving spot,
let us know in the comments.
We'll know if you're lying as well.
It can't be more extreme than two-spot sausage rolls.
Don't say like two donuts, mate.
We've seen it.
We've done it.
We've done it.
You know, the best foods to eat.
Can I, can I interact?
It's not on the list,
but someone a, a,
someone messaged in this morning.
I don't have the name, but,
but thank you very much for sending it in.
It was an addition to Bullshit High Names.
Oh yeah.
Now I'm going to start,
I'm going to start with the,
the first one that he said in,
I'm going to do them in order.
Firstly, we've got this,
which I have seen before.
These are.
A wonder?
The wonders.
I like that.
W-A-N-D-A, the wonders.
Nice.
I don't think it's that crazy.
It's not the worst.
But it's an interesting one.
Now we're going to move over to the,
now he, he said he works for in,
golf cart maintenance.
Nice.
So different tires there than,
than what we see around them out.
We're moving over to the second one here.
I mean, can you read that one?
That is a, that is a junkie.
That's the junkies.
So the J-U-N-K,
and then AI.
So it could be junk AI,
but I like the junkies.
Now the final,
the final and by far best.
This was my favourite one.
This is, Hall of Fame already,
is the M-Chongs.
That is the,
that is M-M-C-H-O-N-G.
Now the M-Chongs.
And the logo,
like the little sort of symbol they've got.
It is like a little caterpillar sort of thing.
With a hat on.
Yeah.
Now these are the sort of companies that
they probably could go into car tyres.
And if you do,
on get in touch.
On a long enough timeline,
the M-Chongs,
they're out there.
M-Chongs will be the Mercedes-Benz tyre choice.
tyre partner.
We did actually recently buy tyres for the E-55.
Yeah.
And that was the K-PATOS.
The K-PATOS.
But we were saying,
there is a,
there is a long enough timeline on which
cream gets its own tyre.
We could make it happen.
And we do,
we were coming,
we were spitballing some tyre names,
some ideas for tyre names.
We could run a set of creamers.
We had running creamers.
We were thinking about the Ben Rogers.
Oh, a couple of Rogers.
A couple of Rogers.
We were also thinking it would be Ben Rogers.
And then he's just full of dress on the other side
is the model.
That would be a type of thing.
Like I won't say that out loud.
Then Ben right now.
Right to the type of thing.
No, no, no, no, no, wait.
What there was something else that we had
that was quite good?
Lots of Ben.
Oh, there was,
there was the Debbie McBingles.
Debbie McBingles,
I'm running a couple of Debbie's out front.
Couple Debbie's.
Debbie's out front and some Rogers out back.
I've got the McBingle 4S on this one. These are nice.
These are the wet tyres.
But Mchongs, I'm very... If you own Mchong or you work there, we're very interested in having a car station.
I'm actually going to have a quick look and just check if they have made any car tyres.
It might be because I've got an import only. We need to import some Mchong tyres.
If we can get... It's for the micro car.
Mchongs.
Oh, now that.
It's the two M's.
Now, what's interesting is I... Google literally has nothing about that.
Nothing about Mchongs.
It doesn't exist.
We could be being had.
So that might be the only Mchong on earth.
In which case...
Got one off.
Let us...
He just made that tyre.
If you are a tyre brand, you've got links to the tyre industry.
Get in touch. We're up for making our own tyres.
Please, can we have our own tyres?
And they can be like 44p.
We can just call them ditch finders.
That would be good.
Can we have just called ditch finders?
Can we have creamed ditch finders?
Some tyre kickers and some ditch finders.
And some all-round tyres.
All-round tyres we like.
All-round tyres, tyre kickers and some ditch finders.
People are buying those tyres.
All-round tyres is the thing we said in one of our previous videos.
And there was a comment saying, why isn't this a thing yet?
It's all-round tyres.
Nobody steal that.
That's awesome.
Black circles and as the tyres are going...
Okay. Hold on.
We might make that one up.
All-round tyres is proud to provide umchongs and skospeneers.
Moving on to the next thing on the list.
We have the Elise VHPK.
Now, I am going to mention before I go into this,
that this news is ben in nature.
Is it misinformation?
I merely saw...
It's not even misinformation.
I have no information.
I have minimal information.
It is an Elise.
It's it.
That's what it is.
Because it's not full information.
With a seat in the middle.
Oh.
Okay.
Now, this is the...
From what I could find on Google.
Yeah, that's the only site I've seen.
Series one Elise.
With, yes, a coming like a client F1.
I should have researched it.
But the seat in the middle is what interested me,
because I thought a small, light automobile.
English.
English.
With a seat in the middle,
preferably possibly being made by a man with a zesty shirt and a moustache.
We don't know.
Therefore, 25 million pounds, please.
Please charge the money.
I don't know what engine is it.
I know what engine is in it.
I remember reading it.
This could be lies.
It could be my memory playing up.
It's a K series as in a...
An original Rover.
But with like 240, 50 horsepower.
Wow.
Again, could be lies.
Could it be an actual K series that doesn't make that standard?
Could be.
Okay, that makes...
Didn't read that far.
Okay.
You know what?
You really have channeled Ben, I thought Ben needs to...
Ben, right now listen to the podcast.
Yes.
That's right.
I love not knowing anything at all.
I've learned so much, but also so little.
But send to see.
That's cool.
I guess that might be one of the easiest cars on earth to do a send to see.
Yeah.
Like no cables, no space for cables,
because the VX220 didn't have a tunnel, did it?
There will be cables.
No, it's in their cables,
but they didn't go through a big tunnel in the middle.
No, it's just there for...
So you could just take the seat out and move it.
We bolt it down.
But leave the gear stick where it is.
So you're just...
You're driving, it's like...
So you're like double sausage roll, man.
You let go of both hands on the wheel, shift, and then back on the wheel.
You're actually...
It's more of pitching the nose down than changing gear.
But send to see that the steering wheel is still on the right.
Yes.
The pedals are just still over there.
It's just like supposedly what driver you're couldn't ask is.
Where you're just from the Italians.
It's a fantastic driving position.
This is your beautiful car for me.
The pedals are just out of reach.
It's nice.
But yeah, so if you would like to know more about our car,
feel free to Google it.
Feel free to Google it, which by the time this episode comes out,
it'll probably be out, have been sold fully,
and be back in production.
Or just not happening at all.
Next thing on here, we've got a piece of JLR news that should maybe laugh.
Yes, there was a cyber attack recently,
which I wasn't even aware of was even happening.
There was a massive cyber attack happening,
and I was none the wiser despite the JLR link that we have here.
But our JLR link, Mr. Tom Lenthal, is how we knew,
because our Jaguar XFR, I mentioned earlier,
is currently being a little bastard at his at Tom Lenthal's,
having its brain rearranged.
And it doesn't actually know.
It's had a lobotomy.
It really has.
It has had a lobotomy.
But Tom basically said,
I can't order any parts because we've been cyber attacked.
Well, not Tom has, but as in Jaguar has.
So anyone wanting to buy genuine Jaguar parts
hasn't been able to do it,
because a small boy on the internet
decided to hack into Jaguar.
Can I let you know something?
When we bought all of the parts through JLR for the XFR,
it was all your details.
Just so you know that.
Oh, great.
So it is your details they have.
So they know that Mr. Chandler works out of this address.
And they're going to sell out information to the high screener.
Enjoy that, Russia.
In Russia?
Yes, they are working on a 300.
He's in XFR.
I'm not doing there.
He's also slightly Dutch.
JLR reportedly does not know
where 40,000 vehicles built before the cyber attack
are currently located.
So these are brand new cars that haven't been delivered,
obviously.
So obviously, JLR, lots of Jaguar stuff.
They're not actually making any,
but I assume there are still cars hanging around that they are selling.
And there's lots of Range Rovers, blah, blah, blah.
They just don't have 40,000 cars.
So then they just went, where did they go?
If you live near a dock or something,
and there's just, you can see new Jaguar Land Rovers
or Jaguar Land Rovers or Range Rovers,
but stickers on them, just nick one.
Just do it.
They have nowhere of knowing.
I have no idea where it is.
Never seen that car before in my life.
Jaguar going around to everyone.
Mate, is this one of your cars?
Is this a 2002 S-type?
No.
Ah, OK.
Don't worry.
If you see one, let me know, though.
But I just want to know how you do that.
Because it's a lot of cars.
40,000 vehicles.
Also, surely they exist on a physical list somewhere?
Yeah.
Surely it can't all be digital?
It can't be like a dealership,
and then someone walks in and goes, where did that car come from?
I don't remember that being there yesterday.
Could I just ask all the dealers?
Yeah.
Do you have it?
What have you got?
Deal right now.
Nothing.
Deal it.
Always sold them all.
Promise.
Promise it's gone.
Sold them all.
Can I have more?
Meanwhile, the parts are going out back.
Five evokes on this driveway.
Just quickly disassembling them.
That's all parts.
Couple of SVRs out back.
I've never seen that before.
No.
That was 40,000 vehicles.
But when they come out, well, how do you do that?
I mean, that's just insane.
So did that hack then, they just wiped the system?
I'm assuming so.
Because unless, if they didn't,
then that's just someone who can't remember that password.
The list is in here.
I just can't get to it.
Don't know where they are.
Why are you picking on JLR?
We beat them when they're down.
They've got their own problems to deal with right now.
And you're going, you know what?
Well, you know, hack them.
You know what?
Screw these guys.
You know what?
I hate that, Jaguar.
So that rebrand, you know what?
Go, won't go broke.
Brackets.
I'm cyber attacking you.
D-dosing your brand.
But if anyone knows where the cars are, let's know.
Send the DM.
Well, there's 40,000 rain drivers on my street.
We'll have one.
They're probably just in like airport parking somewhere.
They're just going, yeah.
Racking up fire.
Yeah.
Do you know what?
We're going to find out about some of these cars in like 20 years.
Yeah.
This is a one of one spec rain driver or Jag that's, you know, gone missing.
Next up, you've put in here the Ian H comment.
I think I know what this is.
This was lost.
Lost podcast.
We were the wonderful.
We talked about the fact that 007, 007 Ian H was a plate.
Yep.
And not only was there one comment that you saw.
I saw another one this morning that said it's Ian Fleming was the guy
that wrote the books, you idiots.
Are you stupid?
Do you understand alphabets?
Ian H.
And Mr. Fleming.
Mr. Fleming, writing the books of James Bond.
I thought for a moment that you could.
No, you can't.
Okay.
That's a great point.
I was thinking you could potentially, could you make an H an F?
Well, you saw it.
But I saw it and it was quite visibly an H.
Could you?
You to yourself?
No, mate.
I don't think you could.
I saw it.
So I understand who wrote the books and the creator of James Bond.
I don't think you understand, Will.
But I don't think he drives an I-Pace currently.
Ian H is the man who didn't write James Bond.
So of course it makes sense.
Ian H. Fleming.
Oh, wait.
Actually, hold on.
Hold on.
Now we may be under wraps up.
Perhaps Ian F. wasn't available.
So Ian Fleming, his full name, Ian Lancaster Fleming.
So.
L.
L.
And it's an L for you who commented.
It's an L for you.
Do you know what?
We could potentially at the same time,
to speaking of comments,
we could move on to our number one hater.
We've got other bits to get to,
but our biggest hater has been revealed.
We do.
And we're not going to say his name,
because it's quite fun.
We think that would appease him.
We think that would make him pleased.
But he's left many hateful comments.
And we're nice people.
We talked with Cav a few episodes ago
about the fact that on YouTube,
you can see when someone comments,
you can click on the name
and it shows you every one of their other comments.
And we have seen a name consistently popping up
always with some poison to spew,
which to be fair, I'm on board for.
It's fine.
It is a open forum.
If you dislike us,
I'm happy for you to let us know.
Thanks.
It's, as we said before,
we worked on Facebook before.
There ain't nothing you can say to her.
But every single time it's always,
oh, that's an interesting comment.
Let me click on their name.
Ah, still watching, are we?
Even though every single time it's,
this is absolute shit.
So one of the first ones
was to do the Gallardo pronunciation,
which I stand by, by the way.
Same.
That Valentino Balboni saying
that the Gallardo was Gallardo, not Gallardo.
We responded to him
and he replied to that in the next episode
and said,
you've just proved my point,
basically, that we're assholes.
Also, as a quick aside,
we were talking about this the other day.
If you want to go down that road,
fine.
It always has to be Porsche then.
Can't be a Porsche.
It cannot be Mercy Lago.
It's Mercy Lago.
It can't be Kuntash,
because that would be Kuntash.
So what is it then?
It's either one,
is either all of them are incorrect
or none of them are incorrect.
It's not how it works.
He learned about the pronunciation
of Febi Bilstein last week,
which is, I don't know,
I'm assuming it'll be Bilstein.
Yeah.
But also, I'm not putting on an accent
for everything I say.
Also, we speak to the guys
at Febi Bilstein every day.
That's how they say it.
Yeah, that's fine.
That's literally, we work for this company
and it's all good.
So to our number one hater,
please keep putting on.
It actually entertains us beyond belief.
Every week it's another comment.
We're going to respond to your hate
with some love.
We love your comments.
We love your work.
Yeah.
Love for you, Muggie.
Love your work.
Yeah.
Please, you know,
say it again tomorrow if possible.
But that's, that is the best thing
about internet hate.
They'll always be back tomorrow.
Even though they hate it,
they'll be back.
He's absolutely fuming
in his pitch right now.
Oh, god, I hate them.
Thursday.
On January 9th,
Greenland 2 is making an impact
across the globe.
Hang on.
Audiences rave.
It's deeply emotional
and better than the first.
I wanted you beginning first, Muggie.
You'll be holding your breath
from start to finish.
Oh, my god.
Grab onto something.
Greenland 2, migration,
ready to PG-13.

What's that?
You got like half an hour through
and went, oh, I hate these guys.
I give them a chance every week.
Well, I wonder what it is that he gets to.
I might have to have a look at
what point each of those bits he has.
He goes, you know what?
I was all good with, you know,
when Ben was lying
and Ben was blocking God.
Not a mention of Ben blocking doctors.
He's on Ben's side.
That's what it is.
He listens for Ben.
No, he listens.
He's Ben's fan and our hater.
So he's much illisting for this podcast.
You...
Also, there may be
others out there that we haven't spotted that.
They're going, is that me?
If the shoe fits, then fine.
But there is one of you out there
and you stand out like a sore thumb.
It's us in other people's comments.
Just be horrible.
We get a comment on your YouTube channel.
Rackets, he doesn't have one.
Tire brand email.
That's the one.
Oh, that's the same one.
Because I think we also had another email
with another brand.
And it was the...
Oh, here we go.
It was an Eskimo.
Oh, the Eskimo.
The Tire brand was called an Eskimo.
If you send that, many thanks.
We are still looking.
We're going to compile a massive list of all the greatest.
And then we're going to message them all
and ask if we can have a special edition Eskimo creamer.
Eskimo creamer.
Now, I'm really hoping that the Eskimo Tires are winter tires.
Oh, yeah.
Let's have a quick check.
Eskimo tires surely cannot be a summer tire.
It would make no sense.
Eskimo tires, that is...
Here we go.
We're entirely right.
That is a passenger winter.
That makes sense.
Lovely.
I like that a lot.
Eskimo tires.
It's by Savva.
It's who makes that tire.
Savva.
Like as in when a French person asks you, how are you doing?
Savva.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That is who they do.
They do the Eskimo S3.
Common Tapple 2.
They do...
Yeah, they just do 73 different S3s.
73 different Eskimos.
Yeah, no, I just pulled it up expecting to see different versions.
And this is what we've got here.
We've just got all of the different fitments of Eskimo tires.
Lovely.
Nice.
With on Rubbex.com, which is actually quite an awful name as well.
Not sure about that.
I think I have to put my ID to get on that site.
Now, last week when we had Ben on here, when he very kindly gave us his time to be on the podcast.
Of course.
Right.
Thankful to him.
He got very, very angry talking about Audi RS6 lights.
He did.
And the meaning of which.
And Edwin, you've had a thought or I think a comment.
Well, I want to save that for next week.
But we have had a lot of people in the comments.
A, who are either friends or do not or are designers who said, you know,
people don't just make up things, but we will get back to this.
But no, I'm going to save that for Ben.
All right.
I'm going to put a little Ben in person on that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a little, you know what, Ben?
First day back, right?
It answer to this then, mate.
Right.
I know I've been away for a week, but what the?
So last thing we have on here, check my list.
I'll check it twice.
Is the forum question.
Okay.
Let's do it.
Now I have a question from, I haven't got his name.
I have got his name.
Ben Ward, 8-7-2-4.
Don't know what those names.
Shout out, Ben.
Those numbers mean forum question.
Hello, cream masters.
Lovely.
I'm just wondering, with you two recently selling your cars,
planning to sell your cars at the sheer amount you've had in the past,
how do you know when it is the right time for you to sell?
For context, I'm 30 years old and living in the UK,
having owned five cars.
I'm assuming that's in the past, not currently.
The last I purchased is my 1986 Mini,
which the previous owner had owned for 25 years.
When he sold it to me, I could see the pain in his eyes
as I don't think he wanted to sell it at all,
but had to due to a divorce and a house move.
I recently have been debating after two years of ownership of selling it on,
but future regret and hindsight is a wonderful thing.
Love all three channels content.
Keep doing you.
Thank you, Ben.
And actually, you've got a question.
And Ben is our number one hater.
We've just revealed it.
That's what he's the one.
He's a big, big hater.
That's a big question for us.
Shout out, Ben.
Thank you very much.
Right.
Will you sign?
It's very difficult to say.
I don't think there is a tangible
here's the time to sell.
Yeah.
For me, there is a feeling right now.
I have that feeling with like the Range Rover.
Yeah.
I have that feeling where it's like,
but that's a natural.
Oh, I'm kind of done with this now.
I feel like moving on to something else.
Not everyone feels like that.
Some people.
I'm just not the person who keeps the cars for years.
Whereas some people want to get rid of a car through
necessity, whether it's broken or because it's costing too much
or because of like you said, a divorce or whatever.
Funny enough, the Gallardo as far as I'm aware is a similar situation.
Guys had it for 12, 13 years, would have kept it forever,
but due to divorce, whatever else, it has to go.
Personal circumstance.
There's obviously those reasons.
But to me, normally it is a,
I get this feeling where I don't feel the same
towards the car anymore.
And I go, well, I should probably get rid of it.
I think if you're considering selling it for any reason,
other than practicality, i.e.
I need to sell this because I have no space in the driveway
or I need the money for X or Y.
If you have any feeling of maybe I should consider selling it,
it's time for the car to go.
You don't, you aren't that into it.
Like my M3, I have never, I can genuinely say,
I've never at any point ever considered wanting to get rid of that car.
My C54, and I'm pretty, I'm the opposite.
I think about, I want to keep every car I've ever owned.
Every single car, my little Marcon Clio I sold for 300 quid,
I would have in a perfect world kept that.
Would have never done anything with it.
But if I had the space, I'd keep it and go,
Marcon Clio, for no reason.
Yeah.
So I'm on the flip end of a, the idiot part,
where it's nice to keep everything.
But even my C55, which I realized I haven't spoken about yet,
there was a point where I was like, cool, this is time.
Time to go.
I've had, I've felt what I wanted to feel, time to move on.
And sometimes it's different with like dailies,
or maybe if you're not as much into cars,
you might feel differently about those cars.
Or if it, again, if it's the car you're using every day
to go to work, you don't have the same attachment.
My mum's car recently had a like a timing belt issue,
standard EcoBoost stuff.
So then there was like a, oh, do I fix it
and keep it for another five, 10 years or whatever?
Or do I sell it for a very, very cheap price
and move on to another car?
And then it, so sometimes there's things like that,
where you go, well, okay, so are we going to cost me this?
But then if I put the money in,
I can then keep it for another five years.
But for me, it's normally, I feel like this needs to go
because there's something else.
Normally for me, it's this.
You want to move on?
I've seen another car.
I go, right, that, for that car to be bought,
this one needs to go.
But I think what you said here
about future regret and hindsight, it will always happen.
If that is a car that you've felt anything towards,
i.e. you've loved it to use car people terms,
which I know you probably don't do that as much,
but I will do that.
I still think like a nostalgia.
Every single car I've had, there's always a,
have we liked that car?
And in my head, I go, I would say right now,
I wish I still had it.
Exactly.
I probably don't.
Yeah, that's my point.
It moved on at the right time.
If you, whenever you look back on any car,
you only remember the good times you have the car.
Even when you remember the times it broke down
or left you stranded, you go,
ah, well, I made it through that.
So it was still, it was a bit of character in the end.
You forget about all of the actually annoying times
or things that that car did that annoyed you.
So you go, oh God, if you gave them a chance,
I'd have it back in a moment.
You see it quite a lot.
People buying back a car that they had previously,
they don't keep it forever.
They keep it for another few months and then go,
no, I remember why I sold it.
Yeah, this is.
If you sold it for any reason,
other than necessity for selling, it's time to go.
You've done that.
You've done that car move on.
So it reminded me of the Clio that comment.
I mentioned I sold the Clio, right?
Yes.
The last one.
And I actually, I wanted to mention that obviously,
I sold that car to Taylor and he hasn't sold that on.
He did offer it to me back for the exact same price.
He wasn't expecting to sell it so quickly.
Because of a car.
He bought a very, very cool car that I am very, very annoyed about,
which I can't remember.
We might have mentioned this before.
But now that car is sold.
I actually got a message from the guy who owns it.
So I'm hoping that car will stay amongst the living
because it's a very cool car.
But I had the opportunity to buy that car back
for the exact same price.
And I just thought, well, what it would have been doing
the same thing as it was doing before.
We'd sat on the driveway not doing anything.
It might as well go to someone else
who's actually going to do something with it.
So plus all of your money and time is going to be spent.
Yeah.
And I just don't want the reminder anymore of it going,
that's where all my money went.
There it is.
No, my teeth.
Lovely.
But I don't think I did.
Did I talk about the Mercedes situation last book?
I don't think so.
I don't think I did either.
Basically, I said many moons ago
that I wanted to sell my C55 AMG Merc,
but I didn't want to sell it
being with lots of little bits and bobs
that I needed doing
to someone who may not want to work on it
and it go wrong on them.
So I took it to a local Mercedes specialist
and said, can you please just go through the car
find anything that's kind of wrong
and just do it for me?
So I had seen that there was a drip of transmission fluid somewhere.
So I was like, can you please just have a look into that,
check all that sort of stuff.
Guy said, yeah, cool.
All good.
I got a message like three or four weeks later saying,
which I was like, it's quite taken quite a while,
but fine, we were offered America.
And it said, have you had any luck finding that pipe yet?
I was like, sorry?
They're like, oh yeah,
there's a transmission pipe that is what the leak is from
that is it's just dripping ever so slightly.
Do you want to replace it?
It's no longer available though from Mercedes.
So I thought you were looking for it.
I was like, I haven't heard anything about this.
And they were like, oh, sorry,
I thought we called you about this.
Yeah.
No, can you have a look for one?
I was like, yeah, all right, cool.
So I started looking for one, couldn't find one.
There is a used one that I couldn't find,
but I was like, right,
I reckon I can probably get this by the end of the week.
I got cool last week
and it was the owner of the Merck place.
So I was like, cool, news, something's happened.
As far as I'd been aware,
he had done a transmission service until that point,
but the fluid was dripping out anyway.
So he said, yeah, I said, how are you doing mate?
And he went, yeah, not good.
I'm closing the business down today.
Your C55 actually broke him.
And I was like, what?
And he went, yeah, no, it's just too much stuff going on.
So I'm closing the business, you need to pick up today.
And so I had to turn it up.
He also said, I want cash
because I'm closing the business down.
I was like, okay, I guess I can go.
So I had to pay him for a transmission service.
Bear in mind, this is the first time I've taken my car
to anyone in maybe five years,
other than Uves, who does I'll BMW stuff,
but he's a friend.
I trust him.
He's incredible at his job.
The first time I've taken any car to anywhere
in the last five years,
closed his business down when I was working on my car.
It's not meant to happen.
So I went there and he was like, yeah, battery's dead.
So I still don't have a keyblade for it.
So I had to jump it through the fog light again,
got into the car, jumpstarted it,
and he went, yeah, it's pissing out transmission flow,
by the way, because I haven't put that part back on fully.
So I had to limp it home.
And now it's sitting on the drive at home,
mashed worse than I dropped it to him.
And I look, I get it.
He's had something has gone on in his life.
I didn't ask, I didn't want to ask.
I'm not, I'm not blaming him for that at all.
I'm now in a worse position than I was before with that car.
Free storage?
Well, not free storage, but storage for a little bit.
But I now need to do more work for that car to fix it before I set it on.
So I don't want it.
Like I want rid of it now.
I'm in this position where I want it sold,
but it's just sitting there.
But I might try and drive that over here tomorrow.
So I can do some bits to it.
Because you fair, the McGann has been in a similar situation.
I was meant to mention this earlier.
McGann is similar sort of thing.
They had basically sort of everything on it.
But there's one last thing is where the brake pedal was just soft as hell.
It took it to a track day, soft as hell.
Obviously went to Landau when we went there with everyone else.
And I was very annoyed, drove three hours, had half a lap, like soft brake.
Because it works day over.
Right up until you're like braking from super, super speed,
you know, like 100 mile an hour, whatever.
And then you just lose all the pedal.
It's just not safe.
So I sent it to Beanie Sport, which is a Renault specialist to that.
And this is nothing on them, by the way.
This is a mystery car.
I mean, he's gone above and beyond.
He has gone above and beyond on this car
and spent hours and hours and hours looking at it.
I've spent hours and hours looking at it.
And I've, all of the calipers have been replaced.
Front lines, the rear lines, they've switched out the master cylinder.
Which is a big job.
That car has had more brake fluid through it.
Those brake lines are so, so clean.
There can't be a speck of anything in there.
That pedal should be so rock solid.
It should feel like the ultimate brake pedal,
but it just doesn't feel right.
So he called me the other day and was like,
look, I think I know my stuff with these Megans.
And they do, if you look, go to their place.
And everyone recommends Beanie Sport for that generation of Megan
and just sort of fast Renaults in general.
He's just like, I'm just running out of ideas.
So where he thinks that there's one last thing we might try.
I'm hoping that ABS pump related.
After that, it's up to the gods, I think.
Because I mean, and I'm also, I'm glad I'm not doing that
because it would have taken me far longer to get through everything.
He's taken all the calipers off.
And these are brand new calipers.
Take them off, cleaned everything, make sure it's all working properly.
I mean, he even said he wouldn't charge you for it, right?
Because of how much?
Yeah, he didn't charge me for the diagnosis of it
because he was like, I haven't found anything.
Yeah.
So that to me is always the mark of a good,
of a good specialist or a good shop.
Is they're willing to admit that something took time,
which to be fair, more often than not, I'm happy to pay for.
Because it would have taken me longer.
But whenever they do that and they go,
okay, but we're not going to charge you for it
because we didn't find it, I'm always like, right,
okay, that is a good sign that you are honest.
I can't remember if I mentioned it before,
but when I picked it up from him last time,
they're about 20 minutes from Bedford Auto Drip.
And this was about a week after we came back from Monterey.
I don't know if you know, but we went to Monterey.
We went to Monterey, we haven't mentioned it much.
I haven't mentioned it in a couple of weeks, I think,
just to remind you.
No, we did last week.
Oh, we did.
Yeah, and the week before, the week before.
So next week, yeah, we'll let you know.
Just to remind you.
But I said to him, I'm going to come pick it up.
When I went to pick it up, I said,
oh, I'm just going to take it straight from here to Bedford.
He went, oh, okay.
Baptism of fire.
To the racetrack.
Yeah.
So literally, 20th was down the road, took it to a track,
and it was better, but not, you know, still the same.
It was also the first track day I ever took my girlfriend to.
Great.
And that's the one with the front brakes.
Yeah, I took it.
Didn't he offer to come down to the track?
Briss came to the track and inspected it.
He came down with like a, what do you call it, a gun?
Just shoot the car.
Just shoot me.
Yeah.
Don't bring this back.
He wanted to check the temperatures on all the disc spaces
to make sure it was breaking, like, you know, it was all
that they were actually breaking evenly and whatever.
But yeah, it was great.
Convinced my girlfriend.
I was like, please just come to a track day.
You'll love it.
You'll understand and usually ask it driving a little bit more.
Took her out on the, they do like a, not parade lamp,
what do you call it, like a sighting lamp, that's it.
Where you go out on a queue with everyone else.
And it's genuinely maybe 20 to 30% of what you'd actually do on track.
And we came back in and she went,
I did not like that.
And then I came back in and said,
my brakes are spongy and she heard,
again, to someone who doesn't know, they go,
so your brakes aren't working.
And you're going a hundred miles an hour.
Okay, no, I'm not going back out.
So maybe one day she'll be convinced to go back out
and maybe something that works.
Don't I have the same conversation with my girlfriend.
So I said, I've come to the next track there.
I've got to book on for the end of the year.
She was like, I'm not doing, I'm not doing it again.
She was like a passenger seat,
but it's the passenger seat thing.
I think you can't,
when you don't have something to hold on to
and you're not expect,
you don't know what a car's going to do.
Like I know they're going to start breaking in a second now.
You're just a floppy rag doll.
And that is not fun.
So I think either there should be a handlebar on the dash if you hold
just or a steering wheel,
fake on like a plane reveal, child one.
Or I was thinking it'd be cool if they did that track days,
like a partner slash friends lap,
where they can, your friends who aren't going fast.
Okay.
They can, everyone goes out on like a sedate lap.
Oh, driving around.
You're just driving around the lap.
Just so that any way they want.
Oh, it's like traffic.
There's a line up the middle.
It's just something both of us.
But so that whoever's there who doesn't want to go in your passenger seat,
because my friend's girlfriend,
when we went to Anglesey was the same.
I've never been out.
Went out for one lap.
But it didn't go well.
She was laying on the floor afterwards.
She was like, I'm not, I'm not enjoying this.
Not for me.
No.
But if they were somewhere where it could just,
just be a poodle around.
I don't think track days are the track day organizers.
Can we send like really inexperienced people out?
Just among like, let them loose.
Yeah.
Okay.
Let them loose.
Like, I got that.
Yeah.
I did.
However, I was coming into quite,
quite a lot of speed into a hairpin up at the top.
And I, my hand went to go through the indicator.
Nice.
Which would be quite fine.
Which is also mid Scandinavian flick.
While I was just about to go for Scandinavian flick.
I went, better, better just indicate going right around here.
Check my mirrors.
And maneuver.
Lovely.
Just maneuver over into the pits.
You just pulled over to the right and stopped the vehicle.
Thank you.
Can we do a 3.10 here?
Reverse in the road.
Yeah.
I need to do another track day soon, actually.
I need to have a little look at what's available.
We're going into the worst time of year.
No, well, it is unless you have a road or a car.
Yeah.
I am in a McGann.
So not ideal.
With no brakes as well.
Are you, do you want to say that you're potentially,
you want to, you want to do some videos and raffle that car off?
Yeah.
I would like to give that car away.
At the end of this year, because I have a,
there was another car, another white car,
lingering somewhere in the background.
A really cool project.
I've been being offered for the last four years.
So if the McGann goes, then I can replace it with that.
Very cool.
It's a V8 and I want it bad.
Also, a TEC doesn't narrow it down very much.
No, yeah.
There's lots of V8s around.
There could be.
But it's a white V8.
Right.
I think we've done a forum.
We've done, I was about to say we've done a podcast.
That's true.
We have certainly done one of those.
These are roads as well.
These are roads as well.
For those of you still with us,
that is something I actually said while reviewing the E60M5.
While driving on a road.
We are liquid auto journalists.
These are roads as well.
Thank you very much for listening to the Cars Roll,
everything around me podcast.
We'll be back next week with Benjamin hopefully next time.
And perhaps there'll be a Lamborghini Galardo behind us.
Get only hope.
I could only hope.
You know what? There probably won't be a clear 182.
It's silver by the way.
There may not even be a Ben.
See if he pulls to turn up.
Thank you very much for listening.
Remember, Cars Roll, everything around me.
Cream, get the money.
Dollar, dollar, bill y'all.
See ya.
Still could be much soon.
Maybe.
