Yo soy Johnny Smith.

Yo soy Richard Porter.

Y esto es Smith & Sniff, un podcast en el que dos amigos hablan de carros y muchas otras cosas.

Déjame decirles sobre el U-turn de Traveler Sight en Wales que hice hace dos días.

Ok.

Fue following my sat-nav.

Y esto no solo me ha ocurrido.

Porque se ha ocurrido en las fotos antes,

donde estoy llegando a una foto.

Y así es como el videógrafo.

Y tenemos el mismo link.

Tenemos el mismo link de adresión.

Y puedes justificarlo en tu mapa de Google o tal.

Y él murió ahí de la hotel en ocho minutos.

Y después de un día,

me explico por qué.

Me explico por qué.

Y también.

En el medio del mundo, en el sur de Wales,

intentando encontrar una barra,

una muy buena barra.

Y sabía que el hombre vivía en una farm.

Y entonces me subí a un rato,

que me pareció muy bien.

Y fue muy rápido,

y también muy...

¡Fleitipi!

Y me dijeron,

¡Mmmh!

He encontrado una construcción de Ramshackle,

en el lado de la derecha,

que me hiciste una foto,

porque pensé, ¿Es la construcción de ese hombre?

Esa era una construcción muy pequeña.

Y alguien había sprayado un aerosol,

CCTV en el lado de la barra,

en las letras de 7 ft.

Pero no he visto ninguna cámara.

Solo decía CCTV.

Ok.

Y también ha habido una construcción de eso.

Y unos pequeños, pequeños всquínticos,

y me addícieron casi como sagte para ayudar.

Una vez me estaba preocupado en todo lo que había hecho.

Y sabía que habría salvado a ellos.

Pero, de la stitches,

he involucrado y tirando a episodio.

Y me ha encontrado.

Pero, no...

Tuve una foto y has stosado

dos chumas en tu bolso.

Honestamente,

he estado como un...

¿Cómo se va a tener una així visita?

No hay mucha ruina en una barra.

No lo sé.

Sí.

Tengo una barra por la razón de lo explicaré un minuto.

Pero, me quedé más abajo en el tren, y el tren se murió a los brazos.

Y yo estaba diciendo, ¡Muy bien, esto es un trato raro!

No puedo creer que este hombre estaría aquí, está en carros y no sé cómo esto va a funcionar.

Me quedé cerca de lo que parecía una construcción en la distancia.

Y luego, la rueda se arrojó y pensé que no iba a entrar en ese tipo de área.

Voy a entrar en el right-hand fork, que fue un gato a un río que había sido completamente arrojado

por un vehículo, al punto en el que era de U-shape.

Era completamente de U-shape, un gato muy substancial galvanizado, pero era como un gran U.

Y había sido tostado a la izquierda, y pensé, ¡Bloodya!

Entonces, fui a este río, y era un río que estaba subiendo a un río que tenía que

ir un poco de camino para salir de los tranchos.

Para ir a la venta estúpida, y para salir de la venta.

Y cuando me subí a la venta, miré donde había ido el left-hand fork,

donde vi un construcción, y era un sitio de viajes.

Y cuando me subí a la venta, yo y mi gran van,

eran muy noticias, y vi algunas personas escrablando a un tipper transitario.

Entonces, cuando llegué hacia el río, a donde el fork estaba en el río de Broken Brick,

había un tipper transitario, empiezo el río, y me subí a la venta,

y era right behind me, al punto en el que pensé que estaba subiendo a la venta.

Y tenía que ir a, no sé, unos 10 miles de hora sobre Broken Bricks,

porque pensé que no quería ir a la venta, en particular.

Había que salir, pasé a las kittens en la cctv,

y then headed into the town,

thinking this is clearly not the right location.

Phoning Phil to say, this is not the right location, are you there?

And then he was trying, my phone stopped working,

and I still don't know why, it just would not process whatever I was asking it to do.

And I was being chased by some angry men in a transit tipper,

three abreast, always a danger sign, three abreast in a tipper.

So I just ended up having to wait for my navigation to try and boot up and work.

Whilst being chased down some streets by a transit tipper.

Bear in mind this was rush hour as well,

so we were doing about, I don't know, 20 miles an hour,

between 20 and 30 most of the time.

Finally got through to Phil,

and went Phil, you've got to send me the details of this shoot,

because I don't know where I'm going and I'm being chased by travelers.

It's quite urgent, but I had to detour about 12 miles

in order to shake off these people before arriving

an hour late to my barn find, extremely flustered.

And so that was the start of my morning,

but it ended really well because that evening I went,

I finished the barn find and I went to go and pick up some matrimonio parts,

hence the van.

And I met one of the most SSGs out there,

and I want to just say what a lovely man Dick Husband is.

Dick Husband?

I met a man called Dick Husband who owns Angel Motors,

Dick at Angel Motors, and what a nice guy.

He runs this little business and he has an eBay shop

and he hasn't asked me to say any of this,

but I feel like I've got to.

He's one of those older guys who's so committed to saving cars

and trying to repurpose new old stock parts.

And he specializes in like Talbot, Simca, Peugeot,

and Land Rover and Triumph.

Oh, I was going to say,

if you were about to say he specializes in Talbot parts,

I was like, I bet the little bell on the door of his shop

doesn't ring very often because that's a niche.

Yeah, he needs to make friends with some French people,

most definitely.

No, it's fine, we're good for parts.

Thank you very much.

But Dick Husband is, he welcomed me in,

he dug out some parts from when he converted a run show

years ago, working for a dealer, to disability,

mobility spec, which is what mine is.

And he said, I've got a brand new rear seat

and rear headrests and everything.

And he said, for all I know,

it could be out of your car, who knows.

So I bought those and many other things

and then went on a tour with a head torch in his building,

which I did take my vlog camera.

But he said, oh, you know, I'm just,

they've put the costs up of this enormous unit that I'm in.

They've over doubled it in the last year

and they said, I don't want to throw all this stuff away,

I want to sell it.

So he's got his eBay shop

and he's got his email address, he's on WhatsApp

and he's just trying to find homes

for all of this lovely stuff.

Just boxes of new old stock things

and nice second hand things.

So big shout out to Dick Husband at Angel Motors.

He's in Whitland or Whitland in South Wales.

I'll put his details in various places

but a sweet, sweet guy and invited me

and insisted I had a ginger biscuit.

Yeah, and it was just, it was great joy.

And I think the world needs more Dick Husbands.

I never thought I'd say that, but I think it does.

Because, yeah, he's just extremely dedicated

and it's almost not about the money.

It's just about making sure that this part of these stuff

doesn't turn into landfill,

which is what he kept saying.

I just don't want it to all just get binned and.

It's so, it's like that.

It's a strange situation that in as much as

he's probably got parts there

that are incredibly rare

and somebody will need them, but perhaps not today.

They'll need them in a couple of years time.

And so he, it's admirable

that he's not just chucking them in a skip

but it's just sad that also people may not realize

that they need what he's got until it's too late.

So that's, it's the same logic I use with my wife

when she goes, well, are you gonna throw that away?

And I'll go, no, I might need it.

And she's like, when will you need it?

I don't know, a couple of years time.

And she's like, but it's just gonna sit

and do nothing.

In the kitchen for two years, yeah.

But that's the point, isn't it?

Well, you don't want not.

Yeah, yeah, it is.

It always happens though.

I'll just go, oh, I don't, do you know what?

We've got all this chicken wire.

I don't need chicken wire.

I'm going at the tip.

I'll throw the chicken wire away.

And then a week later go, oh shit,

there's a huge hole in the fence.

I wish I had some chicken wire.

I'd like to also talk about

on the way home last night

when I was in the same van

but with lots of Matarancho parts.

Lovely, lovely things,

including a new old stock front panel.

Yeah, I want to talk to you

about the pillowy gargoyle

that I saw sat in an Audi SQ7

in the services.

Can I talk to you about that?

What's it?

You're gonna have to now.

It's a man.

It's raised more questions than it's answered.

Well, a man in an SQ7

parked opposite me in this car park,

services car park.

I was minding my own business

just eating my dinner in the van.

Engine turned off.

And he was in the passenger seat.

The engine was running.

And he was eating.

I think he got one of those fluorescent yellow chow mains

that you get from services.

You know the ones.

But the alarm went off.

So he hurriedly shuffled out of the SQ7,

ran around to the driver's side,

got in it, did something

and then got back out and got into the passenger seat

and carried on eating.

And then about four minutes later

the alarm went off again.

And he had to do this.

He did this three times.

And I can only describe his face

looked like a child had made a gargoyle

using an old bedroom pillow.

It's the only way I can describe it.

It's a pillowy gargoyle of a man.

But with also a big necklace.

And I don't think gargoyles wear necklaces,

but maybe they do.

And so I watched this unravel for ages.

And do you know what?

I don't have any sympathy for him,

which is why I'm calling him a pillowy gargoyle

because I don't understand why you'd sit

for 20 minutes in the services car park

with your fucking engine running.

It's stupid, isn't it?

It is stupid and annoying.

And it's stupid.

It's just stupid.

You're costing yourself money.

Unless there is a problem with the car

which it sounds like maybe the electrics

on that car were not tip top.

Yeah.

Perhaps if he shut it off,

then he wouldn't be able to get it started again.

Something like that.

It's got a weak battery or something.

So there may be some circumstances

we're not aware of,

but otherwise no, he's just a prick.

Just like, if I tell you a story

about my mate Big John

when he had to get his car going.

He has an old Austin Cambridge from the 60s.

Yeah, my brother had one of those.

He got it going,

but he couldn't then turn it off

because it would be an absolute bastard.

I can't remember why,

but there was some reason why

it would be very difficult to restart.

And he had to drive from, I think,

it was Birmingham to Ipswich.

A long way.

It's a long way.

He stopped for fuel,

he just left the car running

in the petrol station

and he had a spare key to unlock the filler flap

and lock the door while he went into the shop.

Oh, that's great.

Because I said to him,

but people not look slightly concerned

that there was a car being filled up

with the engine running,

because I know sometimes you go to other countries

and you see them doing that,

but certainly here it is very much a no-no

to fill up a running car.

I've done it through absolute necessity.

In fact, I did it with my Boxster

when I first bought it

because the ECU was,

I knew that it wouldn't start again

and I had to get to an MOT station,

but I did feel slight guilt.

Although, the Boxster's quite vocal on idle.

Amoris Oxford or Austin Cambridge

has a very, very low idle.

That's exactly what John said.

When I said,

were people not alarmed at a running car

in a petrol station, he said,

no, the B-series has a very quiet idle

and that's shut me up.

It's so true.

My brothers used to idle at like 500 RPM.

It was amazing.

They do.

I mean, the A-series is the same.

Those Austin engines,

they, particularly when they're warmed up,

they idle low and quiet.

People think that the A-series engines

are quite noisy,

but usually it's because of minis and metros.

It's the gear wind that makes them noisy.

The engine itself is whisper quiet.

It's an idle.

Anyway, but John,

when John,

when John was doing his Birmingham 2 Ipswich,

honestly, in a car, he could not switch off.

He was getting closer to Ipswich

when he got a message, I think,

from a very old friend of his

because he's from that area,

who said,

I've just split up with my boyfriend,

I'm in this pub that he knew.

And John was a bit like,

oh, oh, oh, I better go and see her

because that's really bad.

So he drove to this pub,

he parked up,

he left the car running,

locked it with the spare key,

went in to console his old friend.

But then he's sitting there going,

I know, oh, he was never right for you.

Oh, no, no,

you're better off without him.

Trying to be a good friend.

Whilst in the back of his head going,

oh, God,

it only had about an eighth of a tank left.

So he's trying to speed things along purely

because he'd got a running Austin Cambridge

in the car park.

Oh, my gosh.

That sounds horrible.

Oh, no, it's stressful, isn't it?

It's a stressful situation.

That's like a stress sandwich.

You've got stress upon stress

with a little bit of ham stress in the middle.

Stress sandwich.

I've been doing a little bit of motorway work

in the past week or so.

And there's something which I keep meaning to bring up

because I assume other people have noticed this as well.

Truck drivers driving with no trousers or pants on,

just t-shirts.

No.

Oh, okay.

How would you know about that?

Well, I don't know.

I just guessed.

Okay.

No.

It's about the Volkswagen ID buzz,

which, when that car was announced,

I thought, God, they're going to be everywhere.

Yeah.

Because it looks so cool.

People are going to love that.

Yeah.

But actually, you don't really see them around so much,

do you?

No.

I had this thought about a year ago.

And it is a surprise.

I don't know whether it's purely a financial thing

or whether it coincided with,

I think they're being a bit of a revolt against EVs,

which seems to have escalated.

I don't know.

It seems to have escalated.

I think in base model form,

they're excellent value.

I mean, there was...

They have to be base model.

Gosh, it was probably almost two years ago now.

Suddenly, some very, very cheap PCP or lease deals on them,

relative to what they normally are.

I mean, it was temperingly cheap,

but I almost just jumped on it.

But hadn't ever driven an ID buzz.

And then I did drive one and I went,

oh, thank God, I didn't buy one of these because...

You didn't like it?

I didn't...

It's fine, but I think it's still got

a lot of that Volkswagen irritation-based infotainment system

with the touch-sensitive controls, and it's all shit.

And I thought it was okay to drive,

but the range was not brilliant.

Did you think so?

I think the range is really good and truthful.

It was...

Well, it was sort of truthful,

because I did a lot of motorways.

It was when we went to do our live show in Glasgow,

so I drove from here to Scotland in it.

So it was a long, old track.

That is a long, yeah.

And I think it wasn't brilliant at motorway work,

because it's got a frontal area, isn't it?

It's just got a big frontal area, pushing air out of the way,

and it's going to damage your range.

But I just found it sort of generally

a little bit underwhelming.

I was expecting more.

I still love the way they look.

The reason I bring them up is because it's like,

I don't think they're selling.

You don't seem to see a lot around.

Not the way I thought you would.

No.

Which I think is a shame, actually.

I do think it's a real shame.

The only people who seem to have gone all in on the ID buzz,

a company called Meaty or Mighty.

Yeah, on my term.

M-I-T-I-E.

Yes, I've seen those.

Yeah.

They are all over the place,

but what throws me off about them is,

because I still can't really go,

oh, look, someone's bought an ID buzz.

But they've also decided to put one of those

red nose day things that used to be popular

a few years ago on the front.

Yes, it's like a red plastic bowl.

Exactly.

Cable tied to the grill.

Those Meaty,

I'm probably saying this wrong.

We seem to pronounce everything wrong, don't we?

But Meaty,

they're like a sort of building maintenance company.

Yes.

Meaty.

I've got a Meaty building.

Meaty.

They,

they, every time I go,

why has someone put a red nose day thing on the front?

Oh, it's that office maintenance company, right.

I get it.

It throws me every single time.

I don't know if I'm alone in this.

I like those Meaty vans

because they're base models,

they've got, I think they've got

gray bumpers and steel wheels.

And that's the way you want

an ID buzz, I think.

I like them.

Well, that's, I would say in general,

I see,

I feel like I see more ID buzz vans

than I do the regular carry inversion.

Yeah.

It's cost, I think.

It's a lot of,

a lot of money when you get into the well-spec people carrier.

I mean, I know, I really like the buzz.

I've driven about four of them.

And I,

I really enjoy all of them

to the point where I could see myself owning one,

but I've just never,

I've just thought to myself,

yeah, they are quite expensive.

They're,

they're a really good size

and they've got a very practical boot

compared to an awful lot of other

expensive prestige cars that people do buy.

Like,

Gargle faced SQ7 guy.

I mean, how much is a new SQ7?

I'm not saying his is new,

but even if it was two years old,

it's still going to be massively expensive, isn't it?

Oh yeah.

No, they're not cheap.

No.

And I'd rather have an ID buzz

than one of those.

I like the buzz a lot.

That's the only reason why

I think it must be not as successful

unless people feel so strongly

about the shit buttons

and troublesome infotainment.

People do feel strongly about that,

don't they?

Yeah.

I was talking to a mate last week

who was thinking of getting

a second hand VW ID3.

I was able to say

go and try one at the very least

because I think you will find it

a profoundly annoying car to live with

and you should probably think of something else.

It's a fair point now Rich, fair do's, fair point.

Fair play mate, fair play.

Fair play, fair play.

No, I think it's,

and they know because they fixed it now, haven't they?

The steering wheel buttons are now actual buttons

and they've modified the controls

and they're going to,

if you look at the interior of what's going to be,

they've just announced it's going to be called

the ID Polo,

the new electric small car.

Is that, mate, I'm guessing

that's to celebrate the fact

that Polo's 50, isn't it, this year?

So...

Well, it's more that there's been a change in policy

that rather than try and make the ID range

a whole separate thing in parallel

to the sort of hierarchy we know

of kind of Polo and Elf's Passat,

they will just do mirror image,

so assume that the ID3 will become

or its replacement will be the ID Golf.

Yeah, no, I'm most looking forward to the ID2

which I think a version of the ID2

might have been shown at the recent Munich Mocho.

I was a bit reticent to talk about the Munich Mocho

because we might go down a really car-heavy,

newsy podcast and people might get crossed with us

because regular listeners sometimes get crossed with us

for being too car-y.

By the way, the ID2 is what's going to be

the ID Polo now, that's the thing

That's it, that's it.

Yeah, so they've got rid of two

and put Polo in its place,

which I'd get

because the other thing is it's like

if everything proceeds as it's currently supposed to

in the UK and the EU,

there will come a point where

there will be no Polo

because they can't sell internal combustion engines anymore.

Right, right.

Now, at that point,

why would you throw away names like Polo and Golf

because people know them?

Well, I never understood the ID thing

for that reason.

Like you say, I think Golf E or E Golf was fine

and E Polo, Polo E

or Polo Electric, whatever you want to call it.

It's just so obvious.

You don't need to overthink it, do you?

I know, because also

someone says so,

what are you driving at the moment?

You'd go, I've got a Polo.

But if you've got an electric one,

you go, so what are you driving?

You go, oh, I've got an ID Polo.

Yeah.

Sorry, what?

Almost it would like Polo ID

would have made more sense

or, like you say, just E Polo.

Yeah.

Why not?

Volkswagen has a really strong hierarchy

that a lot of other people don't.

Like, you know, even up,

the up was around for long enough,

you go up Polo Golf percent.

Everybody sorts of knows that.

Yeah, I know.

And they've abandoned it, seemingly.

Well, that's the thing.

So, I mean, even if they seem like

they are bringing it back

but they maybe just need to decide

where the ID goes

or if in fact it doesn't

because it's like just, yeah,

E Polo and then when

there are no internal combustion polos,

it just becomes the Polo.

Yeah, I think we should do that.

I think it's going to be,

it's going to be a good one.

I'm very excited about that,

like I said before.

So, we're at a seesaw.

Should we talk about some new cars

or there's some unfinished business

in the world of 60s person?

Well, I was just going to mention

because we forgot to last week

and apologies for being cary

but there are a couple of things.

One of them,

the Audi Concept F&C.

Oh, yes.

It was announced.

Sort of.

Sort of inspired a bit

by the original TT,

a bit by

auto union racing cars

from the 1930s.

Yes.

Overall,

I personally,

I rather like it.

I think it's interesting.

The only thing I don't get

is the narrow grille.

I think the grille is too narrow.

Now, Audi grilles

were getting extravagant

and horrible.

Yeah.

I think that's fair to say.

And I don't understand

why are they blacking

in the logo now?

I don't know.

Is it because lots of people

who like Audi

like murdered out stuff?

I think

the Audi brand

is a murdered out type of brand.

But they're not alone.

This is the weird thing.

It's obviously a trend

because Audi do it,

Vox all do it.

Yeah.

Quite a few companies

actually blacking out the logo

and it seems so weird

because, you know,

these old school European car companies,

like their image,

their logo, their name

is one of their weapons

against all these incoming Chinese companies

that you've never heard of before.

Yeah.

I think they'd want to shout it proudly.

You think they'd want to be like,

remember a few years ago,

Citroen was sort of having

one of its identity crises.

Yeah.

It felt like the double chevron logo

just kept getting bigger

and bigger on the cars.

Yeah.

Why are they not

actually making the logos

more prominent?

Because surely

if you're the kind of person

who thinks that

a modern Audi SUV

is a really nice looking car,

then you want people to know

you've got an Audi.

I don't,

I do not understand that.

It's almost like

Audi grill is starting to look

half of a kidney grill

and at a time when BMW

have gone

for the Neuer class

style

original

sized

two little beaver teeth grill.

Yes.

Well that was something else

I was going to bring up

is that new iX3

they just announced.

Yeah.

Which uses the Neuer class

style

designed language,

hasn't it?

Yeah.

This is

no, I don't care

but BMW

basically is going to be

a whole new generation

of BMWs.

So they're calling it a Neuer class.

I'd like they did

when they sort of reset

the whole range

in the 60s.

Same thing.

And

of course, yeah.

Yeah, that's right.

So they did

if there've been concepts

that sort of preview

what this is all going to look like

and it looked promising.

It was a bit like

oh look they're going to go back

to sort of basically

better looking cars.

Fewer

weird random

bits of sculpting

on the body

and sort of

mismatched angles

and needless detailing

all over the bumpers

and things like that.

Yeah.

So it was all quite

quite interesting

and hopeful

but the first example

of the Neuer class

is the new iX3

and

Wrong example

I give I think.

It's profoundly disappointing.

It's got piss

awful wheel arches

for a star.

You know the Peugeot 207

always looked like

they'd done the clay model

with some sort of very

rounded

big arches

and then go

no, it's too wide

and just sliced them off

with a rasp

and it looked shit.

That's what this car's got

and it doesn't

I don't think it works.

No, it doesn't.

It is a bit cleaner

than some recent BMs

but it's still got

that piss awful

thing in the front bumper

where they just go

angle there,

angle there

well that doesn't line up

with that other one

doesn't matter

and I just don't get it.

Yeah, I think if you

kind of put your fingers

up to your eyes

and make a letter box

platform

not platform

viewing oval

you can see that

this could work

in a three series

really nicely

if it was all slimmed down

and less chunky

and it's a very upright car

because it's an IX

but yeah,

in general

the Neuer class of face

is a positive move

but I think they've just

used the wrong car

to showcase it

that's what I would say

whereas the F-ing

F-ing C concept

that you just mentioned

do you know my favorite

part of that car

is the steering wheel

Oh

have you seen the steering wheel

it's very sexy

three spoke

almost cylindrical

rotary

dial switches

on there

and it's just

and it's very

all very thin

and purposeful

I like it a lot

it's um

I think Audi's

might be going back

to being

subtle again

they've discovered

subtlety again

which they were

very good at

yeah

on that sort of things

on that subtlety

funny cause

I like the outside of that

Audi concept

in general

and it's interesting

that it's got

it is

kind of minimalist

there's not an awful lot

going on

I mean it's obviously very

sophisticated and there's been

an awful lot of work

gone into it

and the sort of modeling

and the sculpting of it

but fundamentally

it's quite clean

in the way that

Audi's used to be

and actually

what it

shows as well

is I think

this sort of look

very kind of simple

almost brutal

is going to be

that jagged concept

of course

in the vanguard of it

and at the time everyone

went

but I think in general

this is where

car design is supposed to be heading

and then the interior

I love the way the interior

is very simple

and very clean as well

it's really nice

did you see though

that

the

the head of

Mercedes design

was asked by Top Gear

what he thought

of that Audi concept

and he said

the interior looks like

was designed in 1995

it is a little bit too known

and there is too little tech

I have always claimed

that I am a big fan

of hyper analog things

but you cannot ignore a screen

when you have a small screen

you automatically send the message

congratulations

you are sitting in a small car

what?

now

Gordon

that house you're sitting in

is made of glass

and you've got

a fucking big bag of stones there my friend

because if you see

the interior on that new

GLC

I actually have

I've seen the exterior

and I thought

again Mercedes you had a chance to

change your design language

and it's just not enough

for me

it's just not quite right

the entire dashboard

on the GLC EV

is a screen

it's just too much

and the outside is

it's going to age so appallingly

and it's going to go wrong

in a way whereby

the residuals on it will die

because the screen will have a

I don't know some kid will kick

the one corner of the screen

and you'll find out

the replacement dashboard

is 17,000 quid

oh yeah

it's just all kinds of unnecessary

toss that nobody in the car world

genuinely I just don't think

anybody in the car world

really wants that

but maybe I'm wrong

I'll have a promise

you know

if you're 21

you might in fact

just go what's the problem here

but

I'll tell you what the problem will be

you 21 year old

is when you take it

to have some work done at a dealership

it'll be 400 pounds an hour

and no one at the dealership

will actually know how to repair it

because it's un repairable

that's what'll happen

well first of all

I think designers need to

remind themselves

that driving a car

is not like just sitting in an armchair

fiddling with an iPad

and so you do not have to

merge the two

but also

the other crucial point

for Mercedes

and others

is that

it's all well and good

21 year olds liking this stuff

but most 21 year olds

can't afford

a 60 or 70 grand

no

SUV

so

you know

just it's

I could see this sort of

this is the way it's going

but

I also think

as long as the tech is there

in that Audi

and it can look like that

it's

it's fine isn't it

the screen is not

the screen is sort of symbolic of the tech

beneath

but if it has all the things you want

but let's be honest

is

probably car play or android auto

and

my sister in law

has got an immaculate Audi A1

and it's of the generation

where it has a little pop up screen

in the centre of the dash

I don't know if I mention this

and it reminded me

that those little pop up screens

that are about

I don't know

what are they

maybe five inches across

they just have the basic information on

and then you can put them away

if you want to

and I really marvelled at it

because I thought

shit that's

that's

that was almost as much as we wanted

and then you have

obviously in front of the driver

you have your own

different dash binical

but I was like

that's so cool

but

from

at the Munich mode show

did you see what Skoda did

yes

the vision O concept

oh my word

Skoda

they built a really cool

estate car

and I mean

a really cool estate car

with a very slab back

and a really swoopy roof

it did look excellent

I think it's to

it's a concept isn't it

well it's supposed to

preview what the next

Octavia will look like

which I think

I presume is why it's called vision now

I don't know I do

I'll be honest

I was not wowed by this

I thought the proportions are a bit weird

it's too overhangy

it is

yes it is quite overhangy

it's boxy for practicality

and according to auto car

a modern shape based upon

VW's new SSP platform

hang on a minute

SSP

sweet sweet platform

someone at VW

or Skoda

listens to this damn cast

I swear

but yeah

do you know what that Skoda reminded me of

I know it's actually a

a five door

but the

rear doors are

quite well concealed

and they're rear hinged

so you don't

immediately notice it

and

when I first saw it

I thought that reminds me of

do you know the Chevy Nomad

yeah

I do

that sort of

yeah

the 50's

the 57 is the one that everyone loves

yeah but it's sort of a two door

estate

that's right

yeah

and I thought that Skoda was some kind of

crazy tribute to the Chevy Nomad

yeah

I wasn't blown away by it I'll be honest

but it's

interesting

and it's nice they've tried

they're sort of saying

we're still going to do estates

that and we're going to do estates

and we're going to do some electric estates

and I think

okay I've got time for that

and

Vauxhall did the course

GSE Vision Gran Turismo

like a

a really wide arched

hot hatch

electric thing

guess is it the answer to Renault's

5.3

turbo e whatever it was called

it's from a game isn't it

but they're saying that it's the next

Corsa could be influenced by it

and it looks very cool

yeah and the Cleo came back

as an actual Cleo

not as anything weird

what is happening there

the front of that car

yeah

is again it's one of those ones

ok so you all stood back

in the studio

and you went

yes

that's the one

now we know Renault can design cars

because it's just done the 5 and the 4

yeah

doing retro

and doing it that well

actually is a fuck ton of design work

you don't just go make it look like that

it's really complicated I think to get

it feels as the flavour of the original

but it actually looks modern and new

so they've got good people there

who can do this stuff

now you don't want the Cleo

necessary to be retro

but Cleos have always been

I think very nice looking little cars

and the outgoing one is

you don't seem around so much

but if you look at it

it's really neat

it's a really nice subtle touches on it

it's a sweet sweet little car

and this is a pig faced horror

this has got quite a face

are they doing it intentionally

so that everyone will buy the Twingo

which is going to be unveiled in a month's time

I do wonder

there go Cleo

is a Cleo

anyway Twingo

is the Twingo out next month

I think Twingo is coming out

not out to buy

but I think they're launching it

as it's revealing it October

oh yeah that's interesting

yes and I think all eyes

will be on the Twingo

rather than the Cleo

I almost bought a Twingo last week

an old one

I know

and you should have bought it

you prick

I saw what I'm going to sell

I think I still could

but I've

so yes

listener

God touch

because he's selling a Twingo

and he's absolutely not very far from me

so he said you should come and

see it

so I did

have a look at me Twingo

it's really nice

it's very nice

the only thing that is

not sort of absolutely perfect

in Twingo terms

is that it's black

which I think it's not a very Twingo color

he wants it to be in that really nice green

that the early ones are in

or something like that

but hey

the condition of it is really good

it's got the slide back canvas roof

I drove it

and it was

really peppy

if I can use that word

I will let that

I like the word peppy

so it felt nice to drive

but what I thought was right now

so I've put my beat away for the winter

I don't know if I mentioned this on the podcast

that I've made a tactical mistake with my defender

which is that I forgot

that it is technically a commercial vehicle

yes you

because Landrave had them all

all defenders

even ones with seats in the back

were classified as commercial vehicles

in 2011

so they could keep making them

and not for foul of regs

about airbags and pedestrian safety

but commercial vehicles

have to pay the clean air charge

when they drive into the centre of Bath

slash Bath

where I live

and I forgot

about the reclassification of all defenders

post 2011

so I was barely driving

into the centre of town in it

and then the

fine started arriving

and it cost me quite a bit of money

for my own factlessness

you're a

you're a wand made of bacon Richard

I am an absolute sleeve valve

and now if I want to go into town

or even annoyingly

and it happened the other day

if I want to take

I had to take my son to the GP

and to get to our GP

you have to drive through

this sort of little

bit of the clean air zone

that sort of pokes out

so I had to pay nine quid

just to take my lad to a doctor's appointment

that's not brilliant

so suddenly

the idea that the defender will be

my winter run around

Tain

take the kids to staff

slightly compromised

I mean even just getting out of the city

to the motorway

I've got to take a slightly different route

than what I normally might

because I don't want to drive through the zone

and pay nine quid just to leave town

so this is suboptimal

and I was like

well I don't know if I could get this twingo

and then that'll be the

way to run around with the kittens

but will it though

it's a sort of

well it's a 2002 car

so it's a 23 year old Renault

it's great

that's left hand drive

and three door

and it's a sort of

yes but no situation

where you go you could

but also do I want to

and do I

because it feels like a car

you want to keep nice

I could see myself

rocking up to festival

the unexceptional next summer in it

it does look exceptional

it does

but I just

I know

but I've sort of

I've said no

and

because what I've realised is probably

I do need something to

zip about in the winter

but I probably just need another ear

or

I've been looking at

i3s again

and getting

yep

they're really good value

they are good aren't they

yeah they are really good value

they're a great car

oh

I was talking to a mate yesterday

who's got one

and I said

he's still

he's still like it

he's still happy no problems

he just went I love it

I absolutely love it

it's brilliant and no

not a lick of trouble

and it is

it's I just

just great car

I can't think

what I replaced it with

yeah

and I seem to get this a lot

from I3 people

they're a good urban tender Richard

a good urban tender

yes well

as my mate pointed out

he said it's boring

but they've got an amazing

turning circle

so for town work

they are

absolutely superb

yeah and they're slightly narrow

like the Easter Island heads

that we've talked about before

like a gay car

quite narrow

also you sit a little bit higher

than a regular sort of hatchback

without being sort of

topply tall

you know

and I love the cabin

I love all the raw materials

love the cabin

I think it's great

love the cabin

love the way they look

they drive really nicely

I was looking at the post 2019

they've got the bigger battery

so you know

they've got a really solid range

plenty for

boy I'd need for it

I mean even the early ones

would probably be fine

you should get a

Mr. Porter edition

oh yes

you should

we met our chatpons in a car park

didn't we

we were filming some of you

came over and showed us

his Mr. Porter one

they're very nice looking

cause they're in that sort of

that shade of blue

that was only in those

it was blue

it was like a rich deep blue

but I think it was only on

that model

I've never seen one since

that man in the car park

no

no me neither

did they make like two

and he's got one of them

cause

I'm wondering whether it is that rare

anyway this is

sorry this is a minor distraction

but yes I was

seriously thinking of

buying an old

twingo

for fun

and you should do

there's a whole separate conversation

but yeah

I think I just

I need a

you know like people have working dogs

like on a farm you have a working dog

it doesn't just get to lie

by the

the

the kitchen floor all day

no

and then go for a tour

around the park

and then it's keep

round the sheep whatever

I need a working car

as in a car that does work

that just does functional stuff

like

I need to go and get my haircut

and the place I usually go is in town

but I realize that

I don't want to pay an extra

nine pounds for my haircut

just cause I have to drive down there

in my defender

no that's a completely

absurd thing to do

it's stupid

how much am I ruining my life

with cars

you are being

strange

yeah

I think

cause I said

obviously the metro is still the way being fixed up

but

but at that point

I don't want to use that as a

as a hack about

because it's a classic

pretty much

so that's off the table

yeah

the beat only has two seats

and I don't want to use it in winter

that's off the table

yeah

the defender

it gets

it incurs charges for being used

in the town where I live

that's off the table

you just go

you've got three cars

that you can't use as cars

you absolute dickwit

I mean this is

sort of pretty much the way that my wife is thinking

oh gosh

no it makes me feel much better about me being

well it is isn't it

when you have to go to a go

now look

I think

I've got some problems yeah

cause I can't use that cause of this

and I can't use that cause of this

so I think the solution is to buy another car

and I was like

this makes

no rational sense

but to my mind it does

I'm in with you

well I knew you'd be in

because you have the same disease

that I seem to be

suffering

particularly heavily from at the moment

I blue-toothed it to you

that's what it was

can I

can I change your subject ever so slightly

yeah please do

we've been

incredibly car heavy

so let's

let's carry on from where we were last week

what if I had with an excellent breakfast

of jelly deals

smoked had a confluffy kejere

we said about exploring the

delights of western supermer

we promenaded along the grand pier

and sampled the various rides

in the covered amusement park

my favourite was spending

several pounds and shillings

on a coin-operated tour of the Himalayas

once the coin was deposited in the slot

a wheeled blue elephant

came out of his snow cape

and started weaving his way around the various peaks

it was simply mesmerizing

at one point Oscar and Dory

left me to try their hands at Shovepen

while I stood transfixed

at the little tusk beauty

it made me think

of all the Rajad Kiplings books

I'd read aloud as a child

sitting on the ample laps of the soldiers

in the Rangoon Reform Club

ah, those happy days

feeling a little tipsy from

a flask or two of Oscar's home age snaps

we decided to take Malcolm

our Mini Cooper onto the beach

to stretch its legs a little

Oscar would insist on driving

even though his own silver E-Type was left un-drive

I vividly remember waving

at a group of policemen

or leaning on a big red board

licking ice-creams as we shot

down the steep cobble causeway

leading to the beach

Oscar did graze his knuckles a few times

on the door handle as he attempted to change gear

but all in all he did a credible job

of piloting Malcolm

we skidded, we speeded

and we dashed across the smooth sands

like budding some Malcolm Campbell's

we even wrote our

tire track initials in the sand

with a kind of temporary memento

of the day

we stopped briefly next to one of the barnacle

encrusted peer supports to catch our breaths

we laughed, we smoked charoots

and we drank the last of Oscar's

lovely home age snaps

just as we all think of heading back

to the castle I heard a sharp

rap on my steamed up passenger window

I wiped off the condensation

and saw was none other than

the charming young policeman

I'd noticed earlier

for me to wind my window down

which I did graciously

afternoon gentlemen

did you not see the 12 foot high sign

painted in red at the entrance to the causeway

no officer why

what did it say I inquired

feeling decidedly squiffy

no driving on the beach at any time

except during official land speed record attempts

are you conducting an official

land speed record attempt in your brown mini cooper

it's Laguna beige

but no officer

I did not manage a credible

62 miles an hour on that stretch over there

I thrust my arm out of the window

inches away from the officer's right cheek

and I pulled it in immediately

oops I'm sorry officer

he sniffed a few times

have you been drinking

Oscar pulled out his pewter flask

and offered it to the constable

grinning like a simpleton

please turn off your engine

get out of the vehicle and stand over there please

said the officer in a decidedly more serious tone

we never saw a dear Malcolm again

ever

and he had to take the train back to belgravia

rumor

rumor has it

he was snapped up by the chief constable's wife

and some cd policemen's charity

ball I've tried to track him down

but sadly to no avail

ah well another slightly melancholy

end to an otherwise

absolutely perfect exquisite

day

well thank you for that

Dice, ¡Hola, chicos! No necesitas preguntar a Playtoe.

Richard fue correcto.

Toca es prácticamente un contrato de un carro de torre.

Y puedo decir honestamente que de todas las personas en este planeta,

yo sé mejor que nadie más.

Realmente te gusta el podcast.

Lo mejor es Alan Gow.

Es increíble.

A las personas que no saben quién es Alan Gow.

Alan Gow es un carro de torre.

Es una serie de torre británica.

¿Pero, ¿dónde él es?

¿Dónde él es?

Es un carro de torre británica.

Él dice que él sabe lo que Toca significa.

Porque él realmente lo hace.

Gracias, Alan.

Gracias por estar en contacto.

Gracias por escuchar.

Yo no he parado cuando he escuchado ese mensaje.

No entiendo por qué un hombre tan importante

está perdiendo su tiempo de escuchar este podcast.

Pero, gracias, Alan.

Es genial.

Yo también...

Yo puse esto en mi...

En mi...

En las cosas para leer el folder y luego olvidar.

Es...

Es una lista llamada Roger.

Que...

Dice que congratuló a mí en mi logo británico.

Pero, luego, ha llevado un desafío...

A mí, Johnny.

Oh, joder.

Él dice...

Él piensa que deberías obtener un tatuaje

de una regla de steering.

Oh, un corte.

Sí.

O eso podría ser bueno.

Bueno, él dice que si lo haces,

él lo hará también.

Y, en realidad,

él sugerió que lo haces,

que lo haces para Charity.

Oh, Dios mío.

Roger está en Glasgow.

Él dice que va a venir

desde Glasgow

para tenerlo hecho a un largo nivel.

Esto es cultivo.

Es muy cultivo.

Es un poco, sí.

Un poco cultivo.

Sí.

Pero él dice...

Él dice...

...

para hacer un tatuaje.

Bueno, Scotland lo perdieron por un punto en ese juego,

pero a la mitad de ese juego,

pensé que íbamos a ganar,

así que me pido.

Oh, Dios.

Entonces, tenía que ir por el baño.

Y cuando el álbum de la Prodigía de la Genera,

había un booklet de muertes,

y uno de los álbems era un baño de álbum

que todos podían usar como un satchel

o un tipo de baño de manbag.

Oh, Dios mío, ¿no es eso?

Lo que yo pensé era un logo cool,

así que me pregunté al artista tatuario

para copiar eso.

Y, claro, ¿es este tipo de asesor

o tipo de asesor? ¿Sabes eso?

Creo que lo sé.

He tenido el CD de la Genera de la Genera,

y sé que tiene algo de arte brilhante dentro,

pero...

Sí.

He probablemente tenido eso.

Puedo probablemente extenderlo desde donde he estado.

Estoy mirando un gran par de CDs,

porque, obviamente,

estoy viviendo en Bristol,

incluso si no.

Sí.

Pero, sí.

No, voy a mirarlo.

Voy a mirarlo.

Sí, es así.

Y tiene un tipo de turquoise,

y luego de rojo y orange,

y también...

Es distinto y bastante dramático,

y también se ve.

No puedo decir

que bici de Roger esto es,

pero parece que es bastante grande,

pero...

Es todo el resultado de la bici.

De nada,

él está tirando un baño de álbum para ti,

que...

Te pido tu baño de álbum,

cómo te da a ti.

Es certamente distinto,

y...

Es...

es muy...

muy grande, supongo, pero...

Yo estaba hablando con mi amiga,

el otro mes,

sobre si o no,

si yo hubiera tenido un tatu.

Y he sortido...

He tomado tantas veces

sobre lo que podría o no podría hacer.

Estoy preocupado

de que voy a cambiar mi sabor

y mi mente,

así que creo

que casi me he tomado

una vez.

Sí.

Y en vez de eso,

voy a...

Voy a comprar algunas caras

que se desplazan un poco.

Bueno,

eso es,

lo mismo,

lo mismo logístico,

¿no?

Así que...

Hemos...

Hemos estado viajando

muy mucho

en nuestro podcast recién,

porque hemos sortido para una hora,

y siempre nos parecen overshoot.

Así que voy a decir

que,

en menos de una hora ahora,

es el punto en el que

debemos

lentamente

llevar esto a la banca

para que se desplazan.

Ah, ¿sí?

Bueno,

voy a darlo a la banca.

Ok.

Así que,

voy a empezar el proceso final.

Puedes empezar.

Oye,

es como,

¿sabes, en un teléfono

o algo,

y yo digo,

bueno,

bien hablado,

y eso,

hay un cambio

que tienes que pasar.

Sí, es...

es como una barra,

cuando dices

que la única manera de romper

es

poner el coche

a la revista.

Sí.

Entonces,

estás stillando,

pero...

¡No, no, no!

No, no, no!

Tienes una revista propellerosa,

pero no es realmente

llevarlo a una gran salida.

Así que...

No,

no hay nada.

Sí.

Bueno,

no hay nada más rápido

sobre canales,

todo no es más rápido

sobre canales,

pero...

Estoy pensando sobre...

Me llamo Joe Krumper,

me llamo Krumper,

me llamo Midnight Toca.

Me pregunté ahora

si no Alan Gow

debería mastermindar

todos

los coches

de la tarjeta británica

para limpiar

esa canción,

una canción de música,

que podría...

¿puedes ponerla ahí

para la tarjeta británica?

Bueno,

pensé que dirías

que debería ser

otra serie,

que ocurre

en el medio de la noche,

la serie Midnight Toca.

¡ would be great, wouldn't it?!

Porque todos gustan

la tarjeta británica,

¿no?

Y es una de sus desafíos

y cosas,

es muy fascinante.

Vamos a dejarla

con Alan,

ahora que escuchas.

Suena como una gran banda,

Alan Gow

y los coches de la noche.

¡Gracias!

Bien.

Bueno,

vamos a intentarlo.

Vamos a ver

con...

Rápido por

compartir tres cosas

con ustedes.

La primera es que

Johnny es engañado

en un proyecto muy raro

para forzar

la cantante de former líder

de Marillan

a un gopro

a uno de sus cavidades ocultas.

Y luego

coge

todos los videos de Johnny.

¡Fish Eye Camera!

¡Oh, Dios!

Si eso no es para tu sabor,

es por supuesto

la tarjeta británica.

¿Qué es lo que está

tomando ahí?

Bueno...

Just want to say thanks

to everyone that watched

my Matra Rancho

Episode 1.

It's done much better

than I expected.

And there's an episode

where you can see the enormity

of the rot being hacked out

on Yorkshire Car Restoration's

own channel.

But on my channel

this...

Well, it will have gone out

the day before you listen to this.

It's a barm find.

Again.

Don't type cast me.

And it's of an exceptionally rare

example of the mark

factory right hand drive

Ford Fairlane.

It's in Britain.

So they did make American cars

in right hand drive,

but mostly very low volumes

all made in Canada

for the South African,

Australian and select UK markets.

So these things are...

they are unicorn-esque.

And we found one that's been...

We think it's not been on the road

since the 70s.

And by Jove there's some spiderwebs

and some seedy.

So that one...

Yeah, I did that all

on a beautiful backdrop of

Stotfold.

No, it wasn't Stotfold.

It was...

What's the place near Stotfold?

Stevenage.

San Havana.

Or Sleevenage,

if you were living there, Richard.

Yeah.

Your next door neighbor

would be Sleevy Nicks.

Yeah.

Sleeven Fried.

We could go on.

Sleeve Jobs.

No, no, no, no.

Sleeve Jobs.

So I'm going to shout

the next time my iPhone goes wrong.

Sleeve Jobs.

Except it's Tom Koch now

as in charge, isn't it?

So that doesn't work.

Anyway, so the second thing

I was going to say is that

if you're listening to this podcast

on the day that it was released,

which is Monday the 15th of September,

tonight I'm at the British Motor Museum

being interviewed on stage by Paul Cowland

as part of his Evening With series.

You get some food,

you get access to the museum,

which is valid for a year,

so you can keep coming and going if you want.

And then later on,

you get to hear me talking to Paul on stage.

There'll be a lot of chats about Top Gear.

I'll be playing in some clips from the show

and then talking about how they came about.

Little bit of behind the scenes info.

But that is, tonight, the 15th,

if there are still tickets available

when you hear this,

then you could still grab one, I suppose.

And hopefully I'll see some of you there.

It's not being recorded for public transmission,

so it isn't in the room thing,

which I suppose liberates me to say something about...

James May's trousers.

I might share a secret

about James May's famous rugby shirt, actually,

since she mentioned it.

Oh, I remember you tell me that story.

That's a good one. You should definitely do that.

And the third thing I was going to share with you

is, do you know Harry Mundy,

the famous engine designer,

often credited with, amongst other things,

the Jaguar V12, the BRM V16,

the Lotus Twin Cam.

He was involved in all of those legendary engines.

But what's less well known about Harry Mundy

is that he was Johnny Vaughn's uncle.

Really? That's cool.

Yeah, it's cool, isn't it?

Yeah, that is cool.

Carl, you're good at this trivia nonsense, aren't you?

I try.

Very impressive.

Yeah.

So thank you ever so much for listening.

We're back with Autosot on Friday

and a regular show next Monday.

Until then, goodbye.

Thank you.

Well, you could join our Patreon.

What wonders that it brings.

Early shows and extra notes

on that side of things.

You could buy our merchandise.

We've mugs at hands, but still no ties.

One day we will make those pies.

But in the meantime, guys, hey guys.

Like and subscribe.

And maybe leave a nice review.

Like and subscribe.

We know you know just what to do.

Like and subscribe.

We don't want to take the piss.

Like and subscribe.

But we were told to ask for this.

Like and subscribe.

Just go Richard, go away and buy another car that doesn't quite fit your lifestyle.
