like, I mean, him being a doctor.

Now, we can take the say, anything's with.

This will now take a cliff, you can put in my car, Under the influence of weed? Can you say to me to sort of

look at how can you say, you, prescribe yourself?

Can you prescribe medications to yourself, usually not usually need a, you know, secondary physician to give you that.

I'll otherwise a lot of doctors would be prescribing themselves painkillers and so, did the doctor, makes you know, do that today? I mean, I'm not saying in spot

me else, but yeah, has been done, but it's considered unethical. You're not supposed to treat

your friends or your family as I say, Yes.

But everyone called does it at this point?

I'm first year, medical school and I'm expected by my family to like everything just just treat. Look at, look at all their

ailments. I've got two young cousins,

one's to Juan's 5 and anything that ever slightest cough, I'm called ring Elm with my stethoscope and also like there's nothing wrong with them, but you kind of expected.

You don't even know what all see the ball here.

Good to have you on the show. Good to have you back Tyrone?

So thank you to my bosses at work, which is, which is never fun season. Sees your birthday.

You should and a half-assed job and everyone treat.

Yeah, I should have really, really short of.

This is like this, this is the answer.

Just well, I did let my, my, studio Arts could start five minutes earlier than the rest. Sometimes, the like, are we

really read the public yet to start and then that was still in Reading time. So I'd.

Yeah. So this is Live recorded over

just if I don't understand, But I did write on the sheet that it was ten minutes reading time when they gave everybody else 15 and I was like well if it doesn't show you can do it.

I didn't really care that point. So yeah, that's 15 minutes.

Reading time sounds like a long time.

It is a long time. It's wasteful times.

It depends what you reading. What are you reading?

What's the studio Arts exam? Which is still really hot

reading up, is reading a reading over the exam for you wearing what are you reading that 15 minutes?

Reading the exam, the questions you know pretty much that's it.

It's not that long. Long filigree the exam, but

don't mark it. Yeah.

So Mark the paper, you know, we don't we don't even get reading time anymore, really good? Yeah.

It's what's your name down? Start good that.

Well, that's how it should be though.

Like, reading time you say I cannot read this and reload and then in, yes, that's chasing work yourself into a frenzy.

The, I don't know this, I don't know as I can to as accountants.

Well, when are you going to exam because like, I've cream like five minutes before that, I just want to write everything out of the package so straight away. Because if only 40 minutes

really Forget everything. It's like is a mess existed.

Then make this Thanksgiving Mexican like a ring top home already and I'm losing it. Well today at today, I work for

this. You told specialist practice

exam, they forgot to put a like a was a cast, like a sheet of different, that formula sheet, they've got the print on the formula sheet for the kids and the kids like what the hell's, a pharmacy? Right, what's a formula?

Should I do now? I'm not a math teacher.

So he increases the Frozen for the year 12.

And I ask that one of the Teacher in charge.

He's like I am they forgot to print on getting printed now so I'm just like this is just yeah it's going going beautifully.

But not my problem, not my class, don't care.

I've got other people because your loan.

Yes, characters, you're in the thing.

This is like this is why I went to Camp with this one.

She's our tonight's topic before.

But before we get into the cart dates is best cheap track day cars. Interesting enough.

You can have a lot of fun with not a lot of money.

So people think you need to have like a Porsche 911 to get on, you know, to go to the racetrack.

No, you don't. We did it with Paseo and it

lasted surprising after he got beaten on, but we'll get, we'll get to that in a little bit. Car updates will start with

Tyrone's truck update, Tyrone, even what's happening with this truck? Laughs is on the road.

Now, but it was. Where was it last and us this

Saturday? And Saturday though, before that

to win past working from the city, Flinders line drive up to get loaded, turn the truck off because we're waiting a bit and then went to turn it back on and start it up.

Put it together and just conked out.

Just do it. Okay off.

Yeah, just killed it. Oh yeah.

Saddle up again. Just crank crank crank crank

over. Oh my God.

Yeah. Perfect.

What in the middle of the job? It was a little bit of the city.

Oh, We're about to come up with the engine malfunction on the dash. As soon as I came up I stopped.

I just go. You know you like you know,

something's going to happen. So because if these was got fuel

and compression at all, yeah, generally removed.

So what happened baiting really? I've called you a quarter of the

tauri, got the tow truck to tow it to Campbell Fields.

Can yellow truck? The truck tow truck.

Yeah, the heavy haulage? That's, that's a serious charge.

Yeah, that is a serious though joke.

Yeah, lift it up. The whole truck from the back

from the rear because he couldn't get to the phone cause as a barrier at the front. Yeah, yeah a little rough on the

back and yeah, she told me all the way from the city to Chamber filled with we went in to scan your question.

Did you take any tag off? Who me?

Yeah. No I didn't actually see through

your charge from here. So I don't know if it'll be

chose day because I was going backwards.

Still it'll beep underneath the thing and seriously delinquent just running right angle. No.

Not necessarily trucks up on an angle because I was like pretty high up on an angle. Anyways, whatever it is.

It is seven bucks. Big deal.

So my sister could help you with your next meal blaming and yes, I took it there. They had a look at it that

pulled at the fuel pump the fuel pump on, there you go.

It's clogged like clogged clogged kind of cute running in that my Costco like my old man popped up once and he's far away from it. Yeah, yeah, for something.

Obviously, it depends on every truck as alone but We stay partial to the premium diesel, at caltex the one that's in Cal feel as well, okay? It's like two cents worth of

diesel. The Costco stuff.

I'm just glad he's in my car feeling.

Fine, that's been all right. It's taking it's going to take a

few years till it. Anyways, say no I say.

And they also notice that to injectors with them.

So they're there and then they were saying that there was some metal shavings in the fuel tank. Oh my God.

Yeah. Goddamn to clean out the fuel

tank clean. It was a handful of metal

shavings. Actually got them to clean up,

their fuel tank, but both fuel tanks change something sabotage.

Yeah. Change the pump brand-new pump

on there, would you know that they don't sell that?

I sell brand new injectors, they will reconsider reconditioning.

Yeah. So yeah, the reconditioning.

So to inject is as well and Wells and expensive to get.

They are very clear and every day, dude.

And then there Do they did another service which I had already done a week before that, so I did a service and then stuffed up, and then they go, you know, be on the safe side miles to do it that way, it's the old change.

Did it will filter change and yeah, everything was up and running. All right.

Oh yeah, it is a work truck here, work a this I'm assuming and now it is mine. I'm sure it's yours.

Okay, any bit about ten and a half Grand later?

Oh yeah. Yeah, but it's funny how.

So that's all it is. Today's for first.

I actually second day that it how many cows are you 511?

Yeah, baby. Let's go Nia.

Yeah Nia. Yeah, that's nothing.

Where am I broke down? Am I and I don't know you.

That's gonna, man. Yeah, it does.

The job is broken and few times over the last 10 or 12 years.

Yeah, yeah. I'm guessing you didn't get a

new that truck. No.

No. How many cases when you go to,

when it was 4460, I see you haven't done that.

Have encasing it 50,000. So, 50,000 since fehb That's

fairly in context. Yes, that's cause we're doing

three to five hundred calories a day.

Depending well and this is a trend on this isn't, this isn't like Interstate hauling. This is the same that much but

there is a few case. Yeah, they get along.

So, um, so yeah, that's what, that's what has been a by others owners on. Anyhow, got a new fuel pump in

there, which you got four months warranty on it, so you don't have to worry about that. Yeah.

Like the Costco. I probably won't be going to

Costco in his home soon. I'm just going to be filling up

their BPA, pre premium in there for now, I've always been, he's been running all this life until you got it.

So yeah. So I think I'm just going to be

sticking to be B premium for now until it gets gets a bit more lubricated. Yeah.

Get the injectors gone a bit more and stuff but other than that, yeah, seems alright so far.

Truck and both of you have a quick actually not awake, probably probably a couple of days before that, I had a touch problem. So I come onto the freeway on to

from Flemington Road onto the telephony way.

And in about 60 in the cruiser said about 80, you know.

So I'll press the reset to go up to 80 and it was decided going.

And this thing just all of a sudden just revved like over-revved, oh, what it normally does, you know, I'm like, well, well not the Hell's wrong with this thing.

So, anyways, I dropped it took off the cruise and then I started, I started using my using accelerator to get gain speed and then it just kept raving and I wouldn't change.

I maybe it was maybe it was surging from probably was the pump was done at the fail at that point, I don't know.

And then so then where's that? I get, I'll get, I'm on the

freeway and I can't stop anyone the freeway.

So I'll get to pass the airport because we're going to bulla, get depart the airport, pull over.

Turn the truck off. Isolated do everything because

Also to shut everything down. Yeah we started up again I'll

check the clutch because you can check the clutch disc the percentage in it. 60% I can't be clutch, not wrong, that's not

all that bad, put the gear and take the happen to get, put the take the handbrake off and the whole thing just starts to lock you should look Bunny Hop. Is if the clutch is engaged.

Not gauging him? Yeah.

Had a load on me as well. Mike that so I'm like what the

hell am I gonna do now? And I said it was only in the

first First first gear. So which was the third gear that

it took off in? Hmm, so it was only in that.

So anyways I'll get going a chicken all the other gears.

Everything was all fun get their tip-off corpse Kenny other girl bring it in. So I brought it in there, they

had a look at it. Apparently the clutch plate had

moved away. So they just adjust our

computer. Reprogrammed, it remapped it

Riri adapted it to the gearbox and It was insane at.

All right, Happy Days. Yeah, so I thought 60% a guy not

surely can't be the clutch. Yeah this is another

two-and-a-half Grand gonna get. Yeah, exactly.

So so yeah, nice. So hopefully that's all right.

But now everything else here apart from there seems the runs.

All right runs actually better now because can feel it pulling now because it's not the fuel pumps are clogged.

Yeah. So you can feel something more

Ginger. CU least.

You're, you're a smart tough truck.

Eat our own you, you know, when to kind of Lay back and look like just, leave the truck alone or just, you know, get it fixed before anything else goes wrong. One of our family friends, he

the same struggles, my dad, he used to the same line of work.

Now, some long has taken over, he's doing tipping, he's got a, you know, ride till I die attitude and he for some reason, I think his oil pump went on a strike, so, do periodically.

Get the oil warning, light oil pressure, And he wasn't sure what's going on. So he's like, I just kept road

driving, it drove on the freeway and stuff.

It went away and came back. He's like I thought it'd be fine

and he's going to eat the thing. Is that so many times not just

with trucks with it was a I think it's a forty five thousand dollar job. Yeah.

Begin to rebuild. Yeah.

Well he would have Army would have starved, it of oil and that was it. And a lot of people over the

years, of said, I, you know, my old pressure, light is flickering on or whatever and all the oil, like them.

So, we'll Pressure, the say all the oil eyes flicker on, but I check the level and it was fine. So I thought, I must be a faulty

like, no, just keep driving. It's like, no, it's an oil

pressure. Like it's not an oil level, like

some cars. Have both some cars at once on

yards of the other but nine out of ten, it's pressure, it's not level. So you might have plenty of

blood in your body. If your heart stops pump stops,

pumping it. Well, you still read it again,

you know. So that's the same thing.

Your oil pump. Not pumping for whatever reason

or clogged or the pickup's clogged or something.

That's what I, that's what was wrong with the fuel to high pressure. Fuel pump was, was that like ten

PSI ml does look really, really down here and what it was supposed to be? Yeah, I think you'll like this

on our goodnight Julian. Here we go.

And his master six, he he was already for a service overview and how long overdue are, no. But he was going back and forth

between band style. So I wouldn't be a bit and he he

claimed his oil light was periodically flashing on and off. I said, well, did you check it?

That's why we get. So he checks a dipstick, it's

not even on the dipstick who, okay?

And with the Assumption I went under is, if you cause a spinning a bit of oil. Usually, if it's not on the

dipstick, it's kind of your on that one leader.

Mark that you usually off assuming that it's right at the bottom of the dip stick. Yeah, that's the Assumption.

I went on because I didn't think you would let the car get that far gone. So I just said by leader from

the sushi bar and we'll just fill it up and it should be back to level you. Really, that's kind of your it's

if it's on the bottom of the stick.

Yeah actually. But if it's cut I assume it look

II scene. I have far under.

Yeah, so we put in a leader does not register how far does the district actually go down. If what I took us on behalf of a

barometer and I went and like there was tons of space between the sump. So between the base of like,

like the base of this up and the end as the end of the stick.

Okay. So he must have been really

like, it'll be different Eventually yeah yeah did generally between low and high is about a little yeah you know not every car probably but it's not a rule here somewhere that's what I assumed if it's on low and you can still see it, then you go. Okay, I've got a, I've got a

leader or so ago but if it's not even registering, I could be anything I wasn't there at the time and then I eventually got there. And yeah, yeah, so what happened

there? The leader in and it did not

register on another later. Yeah, so what I thought look,

either something Is really really gone wrong or he's missing a couple liters and I wasn't sure which way to go because I'm not going to make him buy you know at five liter bottle because if we buy another lead at, why not register again, but we just decide playsafe got like a 5 liter bottle.

Yeah, I think we put in another 2 or so leaders from that bottle. So here and then you had

something. Yeah, so three leaders down.

Wow. So if you three ladies down,

that's probably a 5-liter thump on a master 6, give or take obviously a bit less than that. Maybe four point eight.

Four point five. Yeah.

So if he Really long. Another, with what?

Three Dan's that he was dead. You gotta see, like, what lies

under to, I know, I know in the ranger.

It's a 9 point, something L? Yeah, it's a big one.

Yeah, I know there's because I know I've got to give them to really to bother you two bottles, yeah, two bottles of 5 liters most Paul drives after all, it'll be about 4 L will for thing for me because I had some worry.

So you got to. Yeah, you that's that's alright.

That's why sometimes. Giving giving you mechanics the

part sometimes you learn. Yes.

You learn from how much all it is a real.

Yeah. Or just read the manual says, in

the manual or do your own service.

Like a man. Well, we'll just take it in on

time by the sticker. Well, not hard.

Those 2.3 liter 4 cylinder is that it came in as a 6 they also

came to them as the three, my sister's husband and her SP 23 Portland or six cylinder before some other for so long before.

Um anyway they do they were down to use a bit of oil, that's just what they do. So yeah.

It's I don't have a bird's, I don't know what they use oil.

Like if they like VW engines, they just use a crap load of oil, but that, that 2.3 liter in specifically, I found any

offenders are because, like, my sister's, like, our cars running bit crappy can have a look at it and she had, she had no oil in it and either put a lock, then, come on.

I've started even cut kind of remember.

So either would like probably a couple good leaders of oiling it. And then I checked it.

Like a few months later, I was down again.

So that I did my research and it's, yeah, the 2.3, that's what

that might have specifically. Just, it just, they just use oil

after some engines just use well in all engines due to a point.

But some are more than others for it.

Yeah, I know the direct see when I initially had it lose about a liter between six months or so and close again.

It says that's pretty normal, that's fine.

But now I'm quite intrigued because it says I've got the gaskets and done stuff done. I don't think it's lost much at

all. So even at 250,000 case, it's

not. Burning burning at all which is

a pretty sweet about the to the good to later.

Excellent. Yeah.

And I'm responsible for about fifty thousand dollars.

Lucky on the truck. Yeah we're trucks.

Are many trucks. If you guys seen any many trucks

on the market you can you get nothing list in looking at average. Maybe seven seven to eight

hundred thousand case. Wow trucks.

They built the building What would you expect to get out of that engine out of that engine? Probably close to a mil and a

half? Yeah.

So Tony had only a third done. Yeah, it's nothing.

It's totally a baby. Yeah, it's a baby.

So you love this because like my old man's been driving a truck for the last 12 years, and I think is it was a few years old when we got it. It was quite over a few times, I

mean is he still at like six hundred thousand or something?

It's not that we do about 300 cases a week before decays away say that's what I'll do that in a day.

Yeah that's right. Because today, I hope it's got

that nice suspension seat, so it's about.

Yeah, yeah, right. See that's the stuff he gets

carsick on those know, just can't figure.

Never, is it? Heated.

I know you like a hated, exactly.

He hates of spending the amount of years.

I did on the passenger side, there's no springs is now, there's no excuse me. Well, how is your welcome to

truck talk? We're going to talk talk with

with, with Tom Dick and Harry and I have a good, you're a different name. Now, I'll do it.

Yeah, doctor dr. Nick Riviera groovy, right.

Yeah, he got called dr. Nick, Riviera of his iPad, took

him a legal moot. So I was in the I think it's the

high court of Australia, ya doing?

It's a little conjoint program. We do with law students at a

new. Yep.

And the medical students are pretend doctor's as expert witnesses. That a judge from the court that

comes in. Yeah, obviously is everything

and Jose dr. Nick Riviera.

And I was, I was standing up for the bad guys.

I was just buying them. Well, I guess it's my dude right

there. That's a TV show.

I would watch that. Hi everybody.

Hi dr. Elam, come on.

Sweet corn. Sweet.

But that's to go to my mind. Do I trade it for what?

And you STI. Oh, it's bigger.

I'm not going standard premium or anything else?

Pecker, I think you should. I've driven.

Someone liked it. Not too bad.

It's all right. Mmm.

But this is brand brand-new. Yeah.

Like, you're the first owner in the book now.

Can be a little congratulatory really like some people buy themselves. A nice watch when they start a

new job or something because of those riskiness of nitrogen ice.

Rex? Yeah, that's the plan.

It's a good idea. How your cars going it.

How is now we have, yo, one of the million cars go.

Well, you know, it's kind of like to bring it for you to fruit salad, to the terrible, all different colors, the 16.

That's what the white 16, I drove the first time last A I put the trade plate on, it took that for a Fang, it was getting a little hot, so I brought it back to my mates and he bled the cooling system because those are a sealed system quite Advanced for the 1960s and, and that is settle down.

It was fine after that, just did a big sort of burps.

I don't think it had quite enough in it and I did put the heater on so that probably chewed a bit through the system and yeah. Anyway, came good.

So that was fine. So, I'm quite happy with the way

that car drives and I found out of a history on that car, which I didn't know before, which is good.

So I think You know, if the time being that just needs a few little other bits like rear seat.

Trim top of that done and wheels painted and I'll just chip away at it. The other 16 yellow one.

I was driving in the piecing re the wipers now work, which is good. It was a fuse, didn't look like

a fuse but it was a fuse. So, you know, top tip always

check for users like actually pull them out.

Don't just glance at them. Anyway so wipers work.

I drove it down to the peninsula and just as I got there, My mates place with a trailer on the back.

It was like, glunk glunk, glunk glunk from the right front.

Wasn't a quack, quack, like a drive shaft, but it was a real grind grind. And I think it's, I think it's

just done a drive shaft and I did notice that it was because it was raining, you know, you get that lovely rainbow staying and when there's a lot of work it was a big rainbow staying under it. I think it's the drive shaft is

somehow come out of the either the gear box, where it comes from, or the wheel end and leaked Greece until.

And so, we something that's had a big we so, I don't know.

Something's going on with it. So I just packed that.

Luckily, I was close enough, and lift the trailer there, and jumped another car. Again, there we go.

Let's class, let's close this class, which is tropical still rattling. Is it cattle in the color face?

Look at that dumb dude, that's this.

Yeah, it depends. What happens with it.

You got yourself a new pen, gyro not for you.

But for your own online, know, the family has another page that makes four page diesels. And I said to someone today, do

you think we have a problem? You've got an issue.

You didn't sort of, it's not like it's not like you like, mr.

Shit, he's too much, just those ones page diesel.

So it happened organically, as I said to a friend you know my sister got one and then dad's looking for a car that's a good catch that. Nothing goes wrong.

They get one of them bang to then my brother, then three and the fourth. So I'm the only one in the

family without a page. Diesel burn, good one.

I'm thinking about, I'm thinking about it.

And I'm gonna get heated seats to.

I'm going to leave them on, just started to shake ride ride.

So that's your the 16th a bit deadliest cost is going to be.

There's always something going on.

Well get stuck on and you never going to be able to turn it off but you'd never get to be able to be stuck on it.

That things don't get stuck on a job.

It'll work. It'll be right.

It'll work. Yeah.

What about you miss? You care about nothing.

Me nothing with me. Same as Sims last week.

So, that was last week. Nothing's, moving, nothing's

moving. Everything's all packed when he

turned up to the country and back on and it was you already talking beautifully and you drive a backing.

Yeah. As you as you quite honestly,

say it's quite better than the sum of its parts.

It's better than the sum of its parts.

Yeah, it is even despite the asbestos interior, which would storage below. That says, base does the salt I

don't think so it's quality Kahlua.

My brother had a driver but he was grinning, he liked it.

It's like Balu on the console. Teak floor on the doors, Tickler

on the console lid tick, learn the seats tick for the everywhere, and then you can't put a dash mad innit.

It's just like, ah, if you sneeze, it's all absorbed by that below. That's disgusting.

That's right. That's what did you get?

It cleaned to see some stuff. I claim this ETA.

With what you shampoo the mall. I didn't want to see receipts

before I sit back and I could trust you.

You got a tip a leader or water into that seat.

You just absorbing it wouldn't it wouldn't stay with it.

Wouldn't do anything like an extra mile with that neoprene seats interior you know it had beat and whatever.

But in yours are just absorb God knows how many liters of fluid that cars absorbed in this part. It be, it's probably heavier

than it needs to be powered a way to probably out, because of all the leaders of the liquid in it.

Well, have to ask a king. Come on when it when it's in the

Sun and was parked, you know, the windows automatically fog up just as all that moisture. Just Fish.

So it's like a greenhouse so terrific.

Anyway, anyway, it is what it is, like, with a bunch of baking soda. Leave like an ozone machine in

there for like three days, whatever happens happens.

Yeah. Radiation.

Yeah, so what they had in Ghostbusters to measure like the the level of the ghost ghost. Yeah, what was it?

The Slime levels and something. Well, if anyways, you get my

battery, I'll be getting at this weekend.

Oh, yes, for your for your Mustang, because your muscles got a dead battery. Charger was Bloody tracking

systems. You've got on wearing at the

factory. It's it's often super how much

capacity at the moment here. Once you can trickle charger and

nobody needs it needs to be changed.

St. N political charge.

Just get one of these ones. Like, I've got that switches

off. You know, tops up and then it

switches off their tops which is, that's all, that's all.

It says, you should be supposed to take the battery out of the car and do it. Yeah.

FCB if I switch it on because this is Snail things. Hang on charger.

Don't know about that and he was contemplating selling it, but he's not he's loaded gun. So what exactly did it did it

did but then the guy came at the girl came the day.

The Monday came to pick it up. Yeah.

But the trial and everything and then he was looking at it it wanted to look at it in dialogue.

Yeah. Okay.

Look at it so I'm gonna get it was looking at it or whatever then he's I'm in an airing about it and he's like all you know the paint's got a bit Ripple here but a triple their life to me. I don't know why but I got is

not for sale anymore. You should see his face but he

was, he He's having to bogging you down a bit.

Now I like it wasn't it wasn't it wasn't no fucking down but he just he wanted basically wanted a say probably a seventy or eighty four thousand dollar car 465.

Not gonna ask you where you're not gonna find.

No no I told him. Okay, if you don't want to get

is a car for so 68 Charger for. So I just came out now.

It's been restored and everything's all right.

He said he wanted to ask you is asking for 92.

Hmm. Okay well now if you want to say

Off the market. If we now have tools to the

noticeable changes week-to-week, love it.

Quit toying with the star. Oh, the truck is working.

Now we've got to find the money somewhere.

Yeah. Exactly.

If it's 10 grand a week in and scan ER then something's got to go. Not a good time, not a good

time. So Mustang first, no, never

never. Nothing.

Maybe I'm just a nice topics, guys, whether it's topics topic.

All right. He likes he likes making things

into plural. I wasn't paying attention.

So like, like, like I could say, for example, how was your weekend, Matt weekends was good. Yeah, thing like that.

Like that? Yeah, it's not all dead in.

Its the, what's the log in makes a greater.

So today's topic is best cheap track day car so cheap as in, let's say, Another 15 grand issue can grant you under 10.

I was thinking under 10 before we head into that topic I think we'll have to go to my next break.

Google is it so that will give me a chance to think of something? Yeah well I already got

something and I did my homework even though you do it BS man.

So we'll see how this. All right you back on car.

Talk on I29 North West FM. Before the break, we discussed

that there were two extra topics for tonight.

The What is it the budget track car I guess and our car of the week which we usually Reserve Kickbacks but but well I wasn't able to do the game. It will make an exception for

today. So start with the budget tracker

but the trucker's. Yes.

Yes I'll start off with Miley so I put mine into a couple of categories for all drivers will drivers and all drivers.

So let's go showing off. I just have one comment.

Well, you definitely give us your car then because I won't be covering if I cannot see. You probably will.

I think a couple me out? Yeah, I mean that I mean that's

that's MX-5 Miata. I mean, that is essentially the,

the one card that you can pretty much say.

It's it'll do the job five. Yeah it's made.

Just put some put some some, some high high temp fluid in it and some are some heavy-duty pads are some really good pads in it. You float out of there all day

and the only thing you probably would need to be concerned about is cooling slightly bigger radiator or something a little newer. Yeah.

And then for the most part, you're sweet.

I know. What is it?

The guy's competition. I took part in Beavis

Motorsport. He pretty much just runs me out

its most time. Okay.

And he goes down to. He have you which racetrack it

is? Want to Phillip Island.

Here's a football. Yeah, he he races there and

every he's also done like small tracks as well. - I think

wrestle Enter as well. But yeah, just me out as most of

time, I mean, obviously fix them up a little bit more.

Yeah. Yeah.

And for what they cost to start off with and what the upgrades will cost, I think it's pretty good.

MB + + BM explodes. Like six grand 5 grand as four

grand. Yeah, there's one for 4200

though. That's an NA you got cheaper

today and these are going up in price.

I think the and it doesn't need to be here for 5 grand.

Pretty sweet. Yeah.

So we'll look if you want really You want 2,500 but they say, the answer is always a mix 5 like always always me out is the answer and most of life's problems.

I mean you've had many depressed, get headaches folk happy get on liking something and don't like your family and want to take him places. Get an MX-5.

Yeah, that's a fair point because it's a to set up thinking about a career and their hairdressing styling industry. Getting everything's fine.

It's the car for you. It's answers all of life's

problems. I want to take your

mother-in-law. Rory wake and then we can

survive, perfect. It's a smart guy like me.

There's a selfish car, but I'd agree with that.

So you said, but the next minute, you're leaving your wife behind, taking him a little with you.

That's terrible time. That's even worse.

MX-5 is on my list to yeah, you know.

Yeah. It's it's kind of the go-to in

terms of and I think all the things that you know if you Google cheap track cars which I did earlier today they truly I mean On my list. Anyway, buddy, I Googled some

others to see what other people thought, just not that you Googled Scania fuel pump, cheap Scania fuel Google, how to get from A to B and they all talked about the handling of you mix find something that there are more powerful cars, verify that and they were comparing it to a WRX.

I think in in one article and that was saying that, you know, WRX is more power. But you won't learn how to drive

a track in that car like you will in.

MX-5, that's so neutral. In the handling.

Yeah I reckon. I've got one the no one of yous

will do really. Don't know which one.

Let's go take a shower. It's a car.

No contact because I don't know. You give us a hint.

It was a clue. What gives a clue.

It's a company that I hope Don't you hate all the company?

It's look up. Please eat.

He hates cars in general but he's still here.

He's a truck correspondent. Is it true correspond?

Yeah, he only likes can use company that you hate Mitsubishi. Missing is Japanese.

The Volvo 747 was a very good rally car.

There's a lot of YouTube videos on it apparently.

Well, they really will drop. It was the exactly what studio

reliable could take a beating. Yeah.

They take a Riverboat, plenty of sideways action.

It's not like he put on a track though.

People do, I've seen them on the truck in terms of sort of rally.

Only type of dirt type stuff, maybe tough up it.

I mean that I mean let's go. It's not coming back, that's

more fun. It's more fun with it.

You won't win you the rally on the right.

It's not as fun was going off the edge of something.

You see you're not going to win an MX-5 Elixir, slow as hell.

So far as hell and this one's on quick.

I'm sorry. I know it hurts.

Thanks. Hello fear of mine.

You liked it. I loved it.

I thought was great but slow as hell.

I remember. So you still got one.

Yeah this right. And it's classes.

Three times the size three times heavier and it's still faster.

Yeah. But it doesn't feel for so quiet

double glazing but that's the point of this class, you kind of you know, feel it, you know, it's not wrong.

They didn't feel anything. Stop working.

When you lie, you want to do just push them down.

So you got MX-5 on their WRX. I had that as well.

Do your ex is on my list. So it like early WRX GCA to

getting a bit pricey but you can probably get a bug eye or a Blow by or even a Hawkeye quite cheap these days.

You get them under 10 grand old all day and that you have still been too many track days and and in those track days are there is a lot of them. Her ex is out there on the track

but there's also a lot of its competition, the Mitsubishi, Evo. Yes, I heard that too.

Yep, which apparently is a fantastic track day car, all you need to do for them is really just pads and fluid brake fluid and you're ready to go in particular, some that are cheap now, Evo sevens because he Basics is a through the roof, buddy, but you can get a night, you can get a nice 07 for just over 10. So I set of pads and your fluid

in, and you're a racer, you're on the truck all day and I've seen a few mechanics and they said, if you want a car, That will go straight to the track just with pads and flawed either, and like, probably three more cases of that to me.

So the like look, if there are over boosted or anything, they just as they are. Yeah, you can be tan and

belonging being on. Good fun, welcome, mats.

Gonna love this guy. The S2000 is one of Hondas

greatest road cars of all time. She does a great guy to fix it

all doesn't like he gave you the news greasy right to review for you Elm. Well, you can rip it out and

still get nothing. Disappointing.

Like a motorbike. It sounds really red metallic.

It's a lot heavier than I thought it was true.

Look at what we know you've got your guards to the S2000.

Mmm, because of the look of that car.

It's a good-looking car looks lovely.

But he's gonna shame just needs one.

Yeah, it's and that was a big issue, Monday.

I really about talk though. Are they, they're, they're,

they're a high ribs company they are hmm.

Which we'll get to with my car the week.

It's a bit of an interesting one.

Well, I had a Honda Civic as a rally, as a track car had Honda Civic. So do I have In kv2.

I are ya know, I didn't go specific down to the model but you know the right Civic with the right level set up good.

Yeah the right Civic lowered. Only entry, I heard that term

like a neon glow, the one that they had it.

Marty come for the faint of events, obviously part for the length of the roll cage that maybe they might die with those to save you. The page of this, got the all

the pollens dust. So you'd think that was one of

the best money. Come on two projects, I must

watch. I haven't seen that one.

It's hilarious. It's actually when they

initially did the trailer for that, they throw it around on a track and everything and there's no sound.

It was just some moves, lovely music.

Yeah. And everyone's like oh man, they

actually, you know, working on a Honda, they're going to make it so cool and fix it because it's completely rice, doubts.

She'll cut of right at the end. It didn't look that far away.

It looks pretty sweet, but Triple-S.

Triple S is a good one. I didn't have that on my list

and 15 and 14 go either. He couldn't ya for day, nothing

for teens better for track for 15.

S better for the look and when your people later.

Yes, Gosselaar drive-through. Well, I mean, they're more than

not you back and specific those in particular have got their own race series as well. So 14 was the one that won

Wheels car. The you 91 enjoyed it.

Intersects with the NSX that's four days now.

Yeah, like that shape 40. And speaking of L of Arizona,

SR20 go, Adrian. If you're listening, You pass

the due date his card. He killed it.

Huh? He killed.

Yeah, he basically the entirety drive-through and he wasn't drive-thru actually. Well he bought another even 10,

15 or so and 14 pulsar and t.i., which is which comes SR20 as

well? I think our windows and I had

symbol or two of these. So he's taking the engine and

gearbox out and putting it in the annex.

Okay, so the NX will live just with the heart transplant, heart transplant but basically I said three months.

It lasted Firebug, wow, so that's so nice of me, getting back on the show, that's not long.

But there's a top tip in their top tip timing changing colors know, that's what it is. Timing chain tensioners?

Yes, chains, sometimes will snap stretch, whatever.

But really, most of the time, the chains are fine.

The plastic cheap tension is the keep the chain tight that are not fine. And I've seen numerous engine

saved by people just changing those timing chain dealers.

When, you know, even if the manufacturers and tell you to that's cheap insurance, it is definitely his top to the constitutive about the Mini Coop.

Yeah, I had many on the egg and they had a 1 May Cry series.

Each other. Yeah, and in fact I made a bit

of a list of 1. May Cry series good.

He's good. But it's been, you know, I don't

run them all at once now obviously that they, they were, they were pretty cool. So they had been, we 30.

So I think there's still a race series below the window.

He thought he was on my list, actually and great handling car if you like a bit of a European Flair, the Milling mini challenge. I had, I think there was an MDF

one, make rice cereal great car, the terrible car.

I will say this, you know, they do head gaskets are not a we're not built very well. Although That but handling wise

I think good because I like midday meal in ginger like the MR2. So you know they I think they're

quite balanced. There was a day we won.

Make seriously, uzuki Swift GDI in the 90s had a one make series laser in the 80s. He really looks series.

Toyota 86, I think now as a one, make the other theories but then we're getting more money there obviously.

But but the pulse 80 turbo sort of Tennessee 80s, ET turbo.

Yep sure do see that that's good.

Like the idea of a one makes Series where it's here's all the car, they're all the same. They're all like X rental what

do nuts? Yeah.

Go your hardest and it comes down to being skinning and being a driver, you know, an actual good driver.

Well, speaking of like those good drivers, like, like drivers, like Dick Johnson Mike's gay from stuff.

They came as my teeth on that stuff they did.

And then like, you know, it was grating, he'll drive the same car, it's the best driver winter.

So I would much rather watch that then to think I was, is yeah. Big money poured in different

teams, blah blah. Just give it, give him all sorts

of X renter. Yaris has and go nuts.

I mean, if you, if you essentially just here's a let's say he's a modern-day Corolla put a, put a, put a cage in it, put some sticky tires and something breaks on it and take a racing, and that's all you need to do.

Go touches are spent in a hotel. Yeah, yeah.

Don't be, I watch that. Yeah, that's fun giving more a

user. The never break and they're

still going after 58 hours. All still on the right.

Anyone can win. I'm 24 hours of LeMans why I

haven't done that what we want to do but they've introduced all these new stringent activities. Now, it's really it's really

need to have a cage and it's been stripped and and what like and that's what makes it look like it's cheaper to do the Nationals like we do, okay? Would you ask me to my little

different now, they different? Yeah, that's true.

Well, there's that there's obviously very stringent rules and regs as to what you can and can't do but they're still subtleties. That one team can have different

over another everyone cheats when they can.

That's a fact. Mmm.

Oh, the different in design? Yeah.

Which obviously gives different aerodynamic effect spoilers but I dont know much about formula one but yep, formula boy.

Was like, you should be for me what, you know, and you do.

Go ahead, watch it. But they used to have the

celebrity race beforehand and they drove some like BMW 1 series hatches. They had all sorts of Crystal

role of and everything. Yeah, exactly.

They've got like, Grand Denny has rolled again like that was more entertaining to me than the actual Formula 1.

Race. Speaking of those, those ones

who is today gets old like a deals.

I don't think so, because I'm after that, because Ford lasers sr2 when it snows, by car. But, when they first came out,

they had, they had a Wives and girlfriends of the actual V8, Supercar writing, jobs did a series of those are prior to the prior, to the actual main race, their way they'll racing them.

And I think a lot of them got sold off afterwards.

Really? Yeah. - driven demo demo.

Yeah, cuz it was 11 the funds that actually got one nicely running. Not yeah.

You might say how much hammered in yeah.

So X engines, run better after a damn.

Good hammering early on. Like the when I was a beamer,

the they always said, the Diesels, It's like X5 Diesel's or 5:30 diesel 320 Dee's. If you know really good

hammering early on they ran better than any than one that's been covered around you know get the Betadine nicely but then they say it depends on the confidence a few hammered into started opens the valves too much and I knew you wait till it's warm you know way to the old warmed up and then give it a bit of well like we used to running cars for the Press before they would get their hands on them and diesels needed to do 2000 case and all the M cars needed to do 2000k before they'd even let the Near them and that on the Diesels, I didn't noticed that much of a difference.

But on the I had an M5 for the 10 model that I ran in once and for all from when I picked it up with nine kilometers on it, too.

When I gave it back with two thousand, something case after a long weekend of thrashing, when it was warmed up and whatever big difference, huge difference in the way, it just the freeness of it, however, to drive those those victims because it go.

Yeah, probably not, because I know that mechanically not great. I like that.

Yeah, they have their issues. But not to drive.

Great fun popular all spell though.

I took one round down around to work one night and when I picked up my friend and his girlfriend and she was white, she was just like he's like can I get out of the car?

Now she's shaking. That's bad.

It was like it's quick. It's quick they sound good.

I think the other five seconds erode.

Yeah quicker. Which for a big photos alone but

the mainland to that would scare you scare me now.

Yeah, so executive driven. Yeah, no.

Drama things on my list. So as I said, I tol I am kind of

put it in a few different spots, but I've already mentioned either, I get on with it. We've got ya Carla week to do.

Okay, I was found one now obviously.

No, no, I'm still searching. Xr4 Fiesta, they're cheap.

The handle really, really good four-wheel drive, not front-wheel drive from, but they got the bigger Focus 2 liter engine. And I'm like, okay, and melt you

into sin. In the UK, got tons of

aftermarket parts. He and go ahead online going

out. Yeah.

As the three MPS. Yes, because there are the 10

grand. And, you know, that plenty of

put the too much power, but plenty of power, but they actually handled quite well. What about a six?

A six a on my list as well, but I'll be getting a bit big.

They are getting a bit busy life.

I'll give it to her like a proper track.

Tell you that, you know what? Your anything just lightweight.

You want the right sighs. Yeah, then I'll see you in r33

gtst. So the skyline.

Yep, gtst. You 5-speed manual turbocharged.

Tons of aftermarket support everything, mixes, pension, was have been done from. See if you can get them pretty

set for not a lot of money and also getting pretty trashed, a little money. Honda CRX.

Oh, that's a good one but there are over 10 grand now.

Yeah, there's still some undertake, but would you would you beat up a? See our exes are probably

wouldn't now maybe 10 years ago, maybe an EFC be Would ya?

Yeah, but not not. Not as here.

You maybe noticed Eric's. Now I'll be getting a bit too.

Collectible if your office me bit more odd and Astro Sr i-- 2.2, I didn't your might have one and, you know, it was a

great Car, Lot turbo, not, it was a non turbo, but timing chain, not a belt and actually that thing was, was really replace. The tension is no, I never did.

Wait, we're talking about Adam Adams one.

Yeah. What happened to it?

He sold it. You mean it didn't die.

He saw, he saw still alive. It was still alive, and he

wouldn't yell at you, if access is, I don't know.

He went, he went when he was 26. He want something full coverage

next year, apparently coverage. Next year.

He doesn't talk much anymore because you just be watching the station to catch the train until ye Maple have quad region.

Then I was thinking, what about the last gen?

Toyota silicon, because nobody really talks about them.

Probably for good reason. No, they're a good girl.

They were a good car. Look to drive the market in the

very last one they ever did. Without without high-revving. 20

did Might are like to point to that 1.8 1.0 those ones.

Yeah, I know the one. You mean they had 100 white

wedgie? Yeah.

Had 140 kilowatts like, it's not bad.

They rev to like 8,000 RPM, they had the with the lift Toyota's version of eat our. Yeah.

And We've got lift to very reliable to be ads about Toyota with the 02 advantage and it showed the little trumpet, valves, anything that was put that sticker as well.

No, yeah, I bet that'll stick on the cartoon.

So we got select guy Tyrone in a silica, it was actually a nice black one, full body kit, everything on it, but I just didn't, but just didn't bite you.

Rocked up and the guy said, so not for sale anymore.

Bang, they took the car now. There's a bit of Ripple bit of

paint right here. Not for sale.

No, it's like The Soup Nazi on Seinfeld, not astronauts of you come back. One year.

Poor laid next to a more to yeah second gesture.

Yes, secondly. Although they're getting a bit

again five ten years ago? Yes, first-gen n, s.

Jennifer strand. You can see when you chop the

counselors. But what about the surgeon?

They didn't come as a manual here.

I don't think all those little I like them.

Them. They're cool while they more

popular because they are all automatic.

Is that why? Well, there were like Amanda

menu box but there were like a sequentially Shilling shit.

Yeah, and they weren't very good to his are quite a good-looking, little mid-engine e, Road, start.

I like the and people put the suit, the silica Motors, they fit straight in really, and they make like awesome power.

Yeah, so yellow. One, the other day and I was

like that. What about if?

It's just stupid silly speed Auto don't want, but probably good to drive, except for the yeah, the transmission.

Yeah, it's really bad. What about E36 318 is through.

An 8, is was pretty much the same as the thrill night.

I just with a few extra different bits on it, a limited slip diff from memory, the more power, I don't think so.

Well, do they come with the twin cam head?

I don't know. You're the Beamer go.

You should know. No, I don't know that.

I don't know. Or You get a threat you can go

three, two, eight. Oh yeah, you could get bigger

1603 28 in a manual focusing any Beamer 6 from day one, right?

Right through would be a in a manual would be a lovely track car. In fact, in the 30s, they used

to take the three to five E, which is the ETA and yes was built for more load and talk less top end power.

But there are 2.7 even though the badge said 325 either, the

bottom ends 2.7 people would take those and put them in with

the three to five heads on them or whatever.

And create a, my camera. Yeah.

And and have the best of both worlds.

So I've heard of that being done in the in E30 race cars, but but any beam is 6 in a manual 3 Series, I would say Tech, you know, relatively cheap and they always handled beautifully.

I look so I was thinking like if I only get a 328 in a manual, in a coop, we got four door. Actually Garrett, E36 E36.

Yeah, 328. Good drive good dry.

I've been in one like the world's best built car in terms of trimmed Plastics, but the goal arrived.

Yeah, sweet. When they're running, sweet.

They sound good and handle. Well, I want in Barracks when he

came on the show you a convertible 328, manual?

Yeah. Which a bit heavier.

The convertibles it hundred though.

It went good. And he's giving the car a hard

time is. Beating the crap out of it but

it's somehow still going there. Always a sweet sounding motor.

You fire them up in a nice closed, echoey garage.

And this is little back from the Twin Pines.

That's lovely. They were there were strong

motive to like they actually. Yeah, it's written, right?

So, I think we're all right. Yeah, I don't.

I mean some beams, you know, like anything, they'll be able to be a smoke or, you know, use a bit of oil or do valve stem seals, or whatever. But the six is, if well looked

after as a seemingly not bad, good times.

Yeah, I've also got So we don't really talk about Reynolds much on the show, but those thing are we did before, I know 16, did you put Renault 16 on the light there to read the to Collective?

I wouldn't do that to you at home.

I put a McGann 225 like like friend has like a FN Matt yes or a cliff. Yeah, I hear you.

Yeah, I got quite a few people. Look right.

A rocker early Cleo. Early.

Clears and fish. Yeah, very tragic handle.

Well, good power to weight ratio cheap if you get on with the cup chassis. Greg Greg Driver's car because

that was different the stress. Yes, it was another couple.

Yep. Definitely was what was that?

Well, they do. They're just more cross bracing

and I wasn't thinking of sheet metal.

Nah guessing it was like, but it has been more poverty pack as well like in terms of what it has chipped.

Yeah. Like weights.

Yes, it's all about all about the weights.

Yeah, I've got an interesting one here.

I don't know what I was gonna get your take on this guy's.

Honda Prelude. Mmm?

Yeah, yes, it is a bit heavy. It's been nose heavy but they

go, they go right. If you won't like the letter, V

Tech Motors are awesome. Yeah, true.

What do you think? I'll go as long as you can get

an Amanda. Yeah, yeah, you can.

Yeah. They all came in menu.

Yes. I mean, I've always liked the

shape of those. Yeah, the good.

Good looking car. There were a boy, racer car of

choice of people that is as well.

He was one of the ones I could see that happening.

Yeah. Legend not so much not to yeah,

are excited. I had that too.

That's again, bring providing you can maintain it.

Exactly. The maintenance costs I think is

that if you know, a good rotary rotary, be friends with US military mechanic, but they they drive beautifully low.

Like they drive. Very nice.

Okay, gotta drive. Yeah, lovely sneak stick manual,

good kind of drive and suicide doors.

Typical tire and giving us dead end.

Lime green. What about it?

What about a barge true race series of you know, like your LTD or the Volvo 740? Yeah.

Like like what about you know over to ton race series or something. So that's got to be called like

pain Traders or something close to it if he could not be so fun to watch but cheap barges because slamming and wailing around a track rolling over. That's your feet can't break in

time. You just going to rub that if

you so good to watch you never know.

It's in your wheels but that, that would be an epic series.

Ltd's. You'd have old 7 Series Seven,

Seals as the 1990s. Yes, mention these.

All that slamming on the track just kissing asses boom.

W126 has massive boat, body. Roll out of them, fantastic

would be hilarious to watch patent pending which is happening. Now the painting I want to be in

it. And you feel quite safe to

because you got a lot of metal around, you know you wouldn't feel vulnerable at on track. This is true.

I'll go through my last couple before before we go before we get going Exile 5 turbo. You can get them on the 10 grand

now, 5-cylinder sound, awesome, Drive beautifully, but he's my last one in opposition to the Prelude Mazda, MX6, four-wheel, steer four-wheel. Steer, there's a front-wheel

drive, or all-wheel drive, but you can get as a manual, that comes V6 or four cylinder in the earlier ones and the other ones are for some the term only one before cylinder turbo.

Yeah, In January 66? Yeah, yes are pretty.

Do they bit heavy? For those of you that knows

having maybe but I mean the, the same, as the Ford Probe, the worst name ever. But sweets any V6 they, yeah,

they rev really nicely. They are not the handle quite

well for full steel, why not two seconds?

Yeah, not bad. Yeah, it makes six.

Let's see me lies there. Like, Prelude everywhere.

I like that wedgie shape, you know, the lady's pretty.

Yeah. MX6 is bugger all.

I think the I think the big issue with the basics as well, a lot of them came automatic and the orders were expensive to fix when they went wrong. Yeah.

So when they order just blew, they just like tough, the car by yeah, which is sad because that there were there were a lot of their luxury car. We had a mum, had a Messier 66

turbo, that was a front-drive, not for stability point a little but I remember back. Then you could only get the full

steer, I'm pretty sure in an auto We wanted a menu.

And so the whole world might have been the Telstar version, that was only Auto in the forest, just something like that. But as was just front drive

manual, but turbo, it was a nice car.

What doing good? Beautiful a torque steer like

the worst I've ever experienced terrible and we were on our L files and Wales when we had the whoa, so you just change lanes, just talks to you, but there are easy.

That's great dad. Dad didn't quite know what it

was so I was chasing, you know, I was campaigning.

Yeah. Let's get this man has done.

And then the weather, the day after Easter, And the papers or whatever you bring up the insurance company, you know, it's like bloody hell, this thing is, I can't insure this thing. The kids can't drive it.

You know, what have I done? You know, sounds like yes.

Hell yeah, okay, I was, you can drive anything, but when I was on Peas, I wouldn't have been able to drive.

It was to help achieve. It was turbo was a performance

car. Hey, I got written off

inadvertently before that, so it wasn't an issue spewing?

Yeah, no, spoon. Anything else on your list Ed?

Now? I think it's about it.

We can we cover them all? Yep, I think we've ticked off.

Much everything of the week. Charlie, wait for the Wake Elam.

All right, give me a second to bring it up on that their Facebook Marketplace. It is.

Give me one moment. It is a 1990 Volkswagen Golf,

GTI 1990. Now we're talking a Mark 3 to

Mark to Mark to evolve. Oh, what was it a duty?

I yes, Mark to yes. Okay.

Yeah. Only when did Mark 3 come?

About 90. We need make it other.

Matt here to tell me that Mark to was late 80s, early 90s, and then Mark, Mark III was 94, mid 90s and then that went to late 90s or early 2000s. Yeah.

And then Mark for which was a nugget that was like 98.

Yeah. And then Mark for came after

that so I don't like that. That was my point in Mark 5.

I was like that kind of change the air that, you know, when you shake. Yeah.

So this is still Very my to is still pretty much a mock one.

Just with a few tweaks. Yeah.

It's just a fellow Marquand. That's what they all say.

Yes. Done.

Quite a few guys. It's a 6-3. 186,000.

It hasn't been up on blocks been.

He's been driven in. Yeah.

It's all original apart from an aftermarket wheel.

The steering wheel and that's quite collectible mr.

Bird I like that pretty good in the manual and the interior looks to be in pretty good. Nick looks very clean.

Well, I like to see ya. Ati's always had good seek

material. Tons.

The fun seats. Yeah.

Like little stripe and the stripes and I just this classic look and dashed. Yeah, that's great.

So nice. He said an Aussie delivered car

didn't sell many gti's here early on?

No, not back. Then they did sell them.

The ones I saw him, GDI, definitely, they sold them here from, but they wouldn't have sold me like, through Kelo Faulkner's out the air and stuff like that.

Like, they They will not ours. Yeah very Boutique.

Not like Volkswagen now. Yeah no way.

It's got apparently an electronic readout for your fuel economy and I think for your speed it's got a little it's like a little mini little Center.

Yeah, that's cool. So yeah, for a car of that V,

how much is this? Delightful GTI?

Be 500. That's not bad.

That's actually and it's red to which is what you want.

It's a really good Nick. That 6500 I mean that has to do

something value-wise. Doesn't it that has?

That has to go on? I mean the person has said it

does need a bit of tail so you can show which you'd expect I guess it wouldn't be perfect. But yeah, it does look very

clean and the steering wheel so square of boxy beautiful turns, like it lost. So turns out then there were

three. So got a Golf GTI 16.

A half mad EJ, you can go like a yogurt.

I went a little bit off the Beaten Track.

I found a 1975 Suzuki LJ 50, which is the predecessor to the Sierra, you know, tiny, little Suzuki four-wheel drive.

They were do with no recuerdo. Yeah, I think so, with no doors,

it's in that lovely yellow, mustard color, you know, think Land Rover but one that works because it's an old Suzuki and a lot cheaper. So, This thing says in my shed

over 20 years genuine 98,000 K taught multiple grandchildren to drive now. Not needed still very good

condition and it's just a really fun little, you know, you run that around South yarra down to a few cafes and around town and what a great, little car. That's a hipster special.

That'll be a cool car. Let's be if you took that to our

that's five grand, it's under 5, grand.

If you took that 2000 coffee, people love it and love that.

Yeah, 100% cute. It is underrated.

And you just step in because there's no Disney doors.

It's not kind of like a cutout where the doors meant to be.

I'm a big fan. You liked it though, right?

You get one of them. What was your car?

Just, I believe it was 1978. Porsche 94-94 49 to 49 24 with

the 944 body kit for ten and a half.

You have to do some bug haggling down to get it, to turn the half. I can accept because you can,

you can there's negotiation BSI, you cannot bring it up.

Now, you got a place. Is this and what's yours,

Matthew? So, speaking of good, high

revving. Honda's or for the track.

Well, a Honda, Honda Integra Type R.

Yes. 2001 DC to nice little quad Light number.

Lovely car clean. Its had a full respray.

Yeah it seems like it's really neat condition that their Championship. What?

Yep the seller says to it's got two hundred seventeen thousand case nine out of ten condition, mighty mods, it's got coilovers engine mounts. Tata headers Mugen, moogan

moogan twin loop exhaust JDM 16-inch, ITR, we also like genuinely Integra Type R Wheels. Yeah.

New Potenza are U W3 tires. Painted, three years ago.

Regional Championship white Factory become are looking to swap for a sky and WX Eve OSS or V8.

So, basically for though, for that money, you'd be looking at 10 grand. How much is he hasn't?

Given is one spot, but fly us with.

Okay. So you reckon about so you're

automatically, disqualified. Ha.

Ha ha, because there's no price, no.

They go for about 10 grand and I do not what they will believe your car of the week. Specifically has no price.

Could make a day off, I'd choose between me, And are so it's down to a Suzuki. What's the price tag?

You know, you've lost 11 Grand to it.

So Maddie it's called, hypothetically say, it's still in. So you got an Integra Type R.

You got it. My little farm mute Suzuki.

And then you'll have, I'm going to Prove you wrong.

I'll hang up so I can go to the type are done Stroh seven cars.

Um did you today? Please don't the cheapest one on

sale. Is what's the most expensive

cheese? I rest my case.

GTI Suzuki LJ 50. None.

I'm angry. Now, that's it.

He's angry because, well, we didn't like it didn't seem Came when I showed him the Suzuki.

So look let's break it down. The Suzuki's got heaps to

factor. It's got that cool color who

color and you'll never see it. Like, it's a very rare car.

These days via car. G eyes got big Juniors.

Gonna see from the Vintage douchebag Factor WG H only ought to do Diablo 2 Diablo. It's a mark to thank you very

much and and I've got more respect for the Mac to than the thinner, lighter GDI? Yeah, so do I please Thunder.

That's what, that's what you. Representing the old school

stuff. So did you ever become be

representing like that? That God, that God gives to the

audience if you're listening and please let us know.

They did it because they were to the GTI festival at the Honda first for the GTI. That is true.

That is a great time. That is true.

You just respecting. I mean, okay look, just just

pick this as thinking. I like the GDI I genuinely like

my two years. I can have a cool car but it's a

that douchebag Factor hips the factor.

And I'm gonna go hips the fact that it's, in fact, a yes, that's it. What he, what he actually said

was? No, no.

All right. Look.

All right. Thank you.

You're going to Gia. Yes, Nikki.

Yeah. Well if it's a car that's going

if it's cars are going to turn heads.

Yeah. If nothing else I bring to this

show a bit of difference. You do not honestly, that car

would turn it more heads and really I I guarantee unless you go g, i first wrote that down to the shops and get out of that thing. With a baguette in your arm,

people are look, I'm just gonna steal People are looking, they won't get away fast. It's only 500 CC of.

This is what happens when you make enemies early on.

You don't get any votes but the GTI still stands strong.

I still like the I respect that choice.

Sort of like, all right. It's like I do like, that's my

second favorite out of the options.

Why did you think that over over the Integra?

Type R? You disqualified, buddy?

Well, now, you don't know. If I'd say, I added this uzuki

and that no comment. No Connie look.

I would probably take, if I was to drive it.

I would take the GDI, but for that pure novelty factor, I would take the yeah, I'm good. Birthday boy, science with me

Thanks, man. I mean, look, they got the dc5
