Entremos en este programa para llevarles un mensaje importante de Wayfair.
Wayfair tiene tips de estilo para cada casa.
Esos son los estilos de Mackenzie que ayudan a hacer esas rupturas.
Hoy es el tip de estilo.
Cuando viene a hacer un comentario,
tríbalas de patas como neutros.
Vámonos.
Como un animal untamado por un río en el área
bajo una tabla de farmacéutica de Wayfair.com.
¡Fairos!
Esto ha sido tu tip de Wayfair de estilo para mantener esos interiores.
Wayfair, todo estilo, todo casa.
Porque fue un día hermoso y me lo forzco a mí también.
Sí.
No voy a entrar en los detalles, pero tenía que pasar menos de lo normal
porque había una situación potencial de Paula Radcliffe.
Pero eso no es el motivo por el que voy a llevar esto a Richard.
Gracias a Dios.
Sí, voy a llevar esto porque he notado
una renaissance
en la cruz y la cruz.
Sí.
Una renaissance real.
Yo estaba viajando, viajando.
Estaba viajando.
Esa es una gran forma.
Me fui a pasar por un río esta mañana en un carro.
No, yo...
¿Qué pasó hace unos años?
Que alguien se disqualificó de una gran maritona
o un iron man o algo porque...
Entonces, esto fue para pros o semipros.
Se había de admitir que se había hecho parte de esto en un carro.
¡Suscríbete!
Esto es como...
Pero una parte de su defensa fue...
¡Suscríbete!
Me olvidé de que llegué a alguien en un carro
y me llevaron un par de kilómetros por la cruz.
Y se dieron...
¡Es eso un carro!
He escuchado sobre estas cosas,
pero no me di cuenta que eso fue lo que llamó un carro.
Siempre han sido describidos a mí,
pero pensé que parecían brown
y había cuatro pies.
Pero ahora creo que estoy pensando en un hogar.
Sí.
Pensé que era un hogar,
solo un gran hogar.
Y era asesado a caminar.
Aquí vamos.
La línea de cabeza dice,
Leading ultramaritan runner,
band for using car.
No lo sé, pero es...
Leading, esto es de...
2023.
Leading british ultramaritan runner
has been banned for 12 months
by a UK athletics disciplinary panel
for using a car during a 50 mile race.
¿Qué es eso?
Y then accepting the trophy for third place.
¿Qué?
Sí, entonces...
Josiah Zakrowowski,
¿Zakrow...
Oh, me siento,
polislistas, no sé,
pero creo que eso es polis
y no puedo pronunciarlo.
Pero, Josiah...
Josiah...
Oh, Dios mío, no lo sé.
Bueno, ella admitió,
ella subió a su vehículo de amigos
durante el 2023,
GB Ultras,
Manchester y Liverpool Races,
pero decían que solo lo hiciera
después de decir que Martel
estaba inundado y no más competió.
Pero ella took the trophy.
No hace nada.
No, no.
Eso es una ruta.
Eso es terrible, ¿no?
¿Sabes qué era el caro?
No es que sea importante.
No, es importante.
Y, por supuesto, dice...
¿Es algo muy discreto?
No puede haber sido flasheo.
No piensas que era un
Lamborghini Jalper o algo.
Fue como,
¡No veas, no veas!
¡Suscríbete!
¿No es el famoso
ultrarrunner en el pasaje?
Era uno de esos
quadriciclos de Ligier
que son muy vibratorios.
Oh, Dios mío.
Y se siente que estás sonido
en tus ojos cuando estás dirigiendo.
No, pero seguramente sería más rápido
para el ron.
Sí, sí.
Pero...
Sí.
En una carta de la panel,
ella escribió,
Yo acepté mis acciones en el día
que yo viajé en un carro
y luego completé el ron
cruzando la línea de fin
y inapropiado recibiendo
un medal y un tráfico
que yo no regresé
inmediatamente como debería.
Bueno, mira...
Perdón,
yo estoy completamente de la historia, ¿no?
No, eso es mucho mejor que mi historia.
Así que, como yo estaba viajando,
yo estaba observando el mañana
como yo iba
y mirando
los carros en el ron.
Y yo justamente noté
que hay una cantidad de
stop locks y disc locks.
Y yo pensé...
Sí.
Esto se siente como
que vamos de tiempo
para el sistema mecánico
antithéftico
que se ha sortido abandonado
por un largo tiempo.
No sé que los Landrovers
y los Range Rovers
han tenido este problema
porque...
Bueno, los Landrovers y los Range Rovers
no son muy seguros en los carros.
Bueno, espérate.
Vamos a...
Vamos a qualificar eso
posiblemente por las razones legales.
Porque he mirado esto un poco.
Y he encontrado no evidencia
que los modernos Landrovers y los Range Rovers
son más o menos seguros
que cualquier otro caro.
Lo que son
es más
atractivo a los thieves
porque...
No, yo estaba contado
con un par de personas
incluyendo un ex Landrover delirio.
Los precios de partes
son tan altos
que las empresas de inseguridad
tendrán a veces
a la costa de reparar
un rango de Range Rovers, digamos.
Y autorizar el uso
de partes de la segunda mano
para salvar el dinero.
Así que partes de la segunda mano
para los Range Rovers
y los defendientes y demás
son muy valiosas.
Sí.
Así que es en el interés de los thieves.
Es lo mismo con
cómo los BNW
están tomando sus airbags.
Porque...
Bueno, y en el momento
de que se están tomando sus airbags, ¿no?
Sí, sí.
Oh, sí.
Hay eso también,
lo que es
un poco
elegido de
crecer un rango
pero también ha sido disputado.
Pero esto es lo que pasa.
¿Me recuerda cuando
los BNW M3
están tomando sus miras?
Oh, Dios mío.
Sí.
Porque...
Están tomando los E36.
Creo que sí.
Sí.
Eso es el primer para ellos.
Porque tienen
distintos y únicos
miras de la puerta
y personas con menos de tres series
que les quisieran fitarlos.
Pero fueron muy expensivos
si se tomaban sus BNW
y se les daban las imágenes.
Así que es una cosa simple
y demandante.
La demanda está ahí.
Las personas menos honestas
intentan meter esa demanda
por nique.
Y eso ha hecho
Range Rover
particularmente muy atractiva
porque entonces
podrían romperlos.
Eso es, aparentemente, lo que pasó.
Es solo porque
lo hice hace un rato.
Y fue un poco...
¿Por qué
¿Por qué la seguridad de Range Rover
es tan rara?
Y aparentemente no.
Es solo los caras
de atractiva
para
crímenes.
¿Eres un víctima de su propio suceso?
Bueno, eso es lo que pasa.
¿Eres un víctima de su propio suceso?
Pero no,
no, no, no, vamos a dejar
a Land Rover
a la puerta aquí.
Es también un víctima de su propio suceso
porque, como sé
de la experiencia,
sus partes
son muy, muy expensivos.
Y las raíces laborales
de sus teléfonos
son increíbles.
Eso no es falso.
Especialmente,
sabes que vas a usarlos mucho.
Bueno, un gran servicio
para mi viejo defender,
que, no se olvide,
tiene un 4 teléfonos en su teléfono.
Era más de £1,000
en un teléfonos que he probado.
No, no de manera.
Obviamente.
Eso es falso.
No puedo seguir adelante con eso.
Sí.
Sí.
El mismo teléfonos
que he hecho un servicio menor
para mi,
creo que $600
o algo así
y he intentado
arreglarme más
para arreglar el muro
incluso aunque
sé que no podía haber hecho eso
porque me he arreglado
a la parte superior del día antes.
Espérate un minuto.
Un servicio menor,
$600, ¿dónde dices?
Creo que sí.
A ese punto,
probablemente
el carro es relativamente nuevo.
Eso es solo
el transporte de transporte,
el filtro de oliva
Sí.
Y el filtro de aire.
Y, tal vez,
algo como un gáscete de plástico.
Y...
Y luego...
Sí, y luego
me he arreglado
creo que $8
para el muro
que no necesitaba.
He probado el FIB
que, tal vez,
la tecnología
había arreglado
el nuevo muro
y pudo ponerle algo nuevo.
Entonces,
regresé de nuevo.
Y luego
me dijeron en el carro
y se había
un puro de oliva
en la fabricación
de color límico.
Oh, Dios mío.
El Land Rover de la experiencia del dealer.
Así que, sí,
he visto estos stop locks,
stop locks y disc locks
y
por algún motivo
pensé que esto es como el 90 de nuevo
y
entonces me empezé a cantar
The Return to Innocence
por Enigma
mientras estaba ronrando
en mi propio...
lo hago.
Pero me empezé
pero me cambié de inocencia
a disc locks
The Return to Innocence
ah, ah, ah pools
ah��
And I couldn't remember
if that song was 90s
or early nauties
I think it's on a Papa.
Aahh, I thought it was
I'm fairly sure
it was 90s,
yeah, because it was that
it was around the same time as
oh, gosh, what's the one
That is huge
It's 1993
it's well into the 90s
What was that one
that was
that was absolutely massive
by Enigma.
The kick drum is huge.
No puedo, es cool.
Hang on, I bought it on single, I should know.
It's got pan pipes in it, it's called sadness.
That's it. Part 2 or something.
Sadness part 1, but they spell sadness wrong.
What?
It's sadness. S-A-D-E-N-E-S-S.
Yeah, I don't know why.
Yeah, it came out.
What on sleeve?
Yeah, I think so, yeah.
Yeah, and it came out in...
Sadness.
Sadness and it came out in 1990.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Not sadness, surely, shardiness.
Shardiness.
Oh my god, shardiness.
I flip and love this song.
I know it was a bit pan-pipy and stuff,
but it was quite dreamy and there was something about it that lured me in as an 11-year-old.
I quite liked it.
I just started, that was the year I started secondary school, when sadness came out, shardiness.
No, no, no, no, no.
I didn't spell with extra E.
Is this because Enigma were from a country where English was not their first language?
I think Enigma were Italian.
A lot of electronic music.
Probably they were sort of tail end of, they were like ex-Italo house producers who decide to go in for that dreaminess.
It's the only song which I'm thinking...
It's the only song I fully accepted pan-pipes, electronic pan-pipes on I think, but...
Yes.
But hey...
Oh no, wait, hang on, no.
Enigma con German, aparentemente.
¿Pero qué?
Oh, Dios!
Entonces, ahí estoy
Jogando por la mañana en el 20 de marzo
Admirando a todos los discos y cruxes
Metrostoplox
Lo que sea
Sí, cantando Return to Innocence
Con Enigma
Pero también he visto algo más
Que no es tan interesante
Pero te voy a decir de alguna manera
En este podcast
No puedo ir de alguna manera
Recuerda la semana que hablaba de la ham
Como steamroller
Sí
Al menos una persona ha mensajado a mí
Para decir
Y yo lo hice
Pero me olvidé de ponerla
Así que lo voy a poner en nuestra Instagram
O algo así
Sí, he encontrado una foto de una de estas rodas
Y lo voy a poner en nuestra Instagram
En nuestra patria, perdón
¿Pero que no?
Me siento para volver
A Shardiness por Enigma
Pero la excelente
Y muy chica rítmica
Es un sample
De Keep On Moving, por Soul to Soul
¡Oh, claro que es!
Que explica por qué es tan bueno
Porque esa era de Soul to Soul y de vuelta a la vida
No sé qué drummachines se usan
Pero siempre han tenido
Absolutamente brillante
Música kick drum
Muy limpio
¡Sí!
Es muy limpio, sí
Ok
Veo la ham la semana pasada
Bueno, como estaba viajando alrededor
Al final de la ciudad
Estaba cerca de la A1
Y esta es la ruta de Rusia
Veo una cosa
Que estaba agregando el tráfico
Y era un bomag
Y este bomag
Era un otro tipo de rola
Pero se pareció como que tenía
Cualquier rola
Cualquier rola frontal
Cualquier batalla
Tal vez 6 o 8 en un gran cilindro
Y el tipo estaba muy alto
Y se iba alrededor
De una dirección
Espero que no se subiera a la A1
Porque se subía a la A1 en unos 12 miles
Una hora
Pero lo que me hizo
Fue un rato
Y tenía que ir por un rato
Y estaba viajando totalmente de lado
¡Oh!
Todo el control
Fue 90 grados al rato del bomag
Así que...
Era como si estaba haciendo uno de estos
Posh horse riding
Cualquier ejercicio
Estaba viajando por un tráfico
En mi rato
Era un rato muy casual
Con dos lags por una parte
Y la ruta fue de 90 grados
Y luego pensé a mí
Y luego pensé a mí
¡Oh!
Bomag & Ham
Era un detective inmigrante
Tratado de cambiar
La cultura del rato
Era un alcohólico
Nunca ha sido visto de pantalones
Era un rato para el crimen
Era un rato para algo
Fue Bomag & Ham
Bomag & Ham
Bomag & Ham
Es definitivamente una era de revolver
Es un rato para el rato
Es un rato para el rato
Es también un café artístico
En el norte de Londres
¡Mmm!
Es un rato para una ruta
¡Bomag & Ham!
Es un rato para labores coffees
¡No has escuchado de antes!
¡Perdona!
¡Oh! ¡Tenemos que probar!
Sí. 3 dólares de ojo de rojo
Si te spendas un 20 doble
¡Oh! ¡Un ojo de rojo de rojo en la Ingenia!
Es un chico en la puerta con un estilo de asimismo, y no puedes ver que tiene un chico.
Y no puedes decir que lo traes con él o que lo vive en el café.
Empezas a sospechar que lo traes con él, pero ¿cómo?
Un chico de chicas.
Sí, ¿cómo lo haces con un chico de chicas que se ríe en el suelo?
No sé si el chico está en el suelo, como un paro.
¡Oh, Dios mío!
Es un pirata de Hoxton.
¿Dónde estamos?
Sí.
Entonces, sí, el Bomag y el Ham.
Sí, el combate que nunca sabías.
Sí, perdón, sí.
Lo que pensé fue fantástico.
Pero esto no es el final de mi suelo de la semana, Rich.
¿Por qué?
Porque en los últimos 7 días,
tenía que ir a Silverstone
para hacer un film de previsión de auction
en el show de la tarde.
No me suelto ir a la actual festival.
Yo he estado antes y es genial.
Y he conseguido algunos fomos de no estar ahí.
Pero el día en el que fui,
había muchos testigos en el track,
mucho trabajo en el track,
y cuando me dejé
los días de filmar,
fui un poco tarde,
y me enteré en el boxeo, porque es lo que me enteré.
¿Cuál fue lo que me quedé detrás?
En el fútbol de Silverstone.
¿Eso fue un ham?
No, fue un rollo de steam.
Un rollo de steam de la edad.
Desde los 1880s.
No sé qué hubiera sido.
Un rollo de steam actual,
rollo de steam que está construyendo steam.
Creo que se ha establecido el elemento de steam.
¿Es todo vibrante pintado?
Un rollo de steam.
Sí, tenía un rollo de steam,
tenía algunos luchos,
y hay dos gizas,
uno en el sábado,
y otro en el río.
Y me pregunté,
¿qué es eso haciendo en el fútbol de Silverstone?
He visto muchos carros y exoticas hoy.
No pensé que me quedaría detrás
de un rollo de steam actual.
Pero pensé a mí,
que Silverstone,
en algún momento,
era de ser más inclusivo, no sé.

¿Quién sabe?
¿Puedo cambiar el subjects?
Pero no se olviden, no es solo sobre caras.
Sí, cuidado.
Apologizáme en advance porque es un poco...
Un poco de regreso al subjecto de Julio Iglesias.
Oh, pensé que te diría que retrasar a Innocent.
No, no lo haré.
Julio Iglesias era el subjecto de un poco de...
Un poco de podcast reciente.
Y te traes el hecho que, como un joven, Julio fue en un accidente de carro.
Y esto fue un punto privado en su vida y, por extensión, su carrera.
Pero no pudimos encontrar lo que estaba conduciendo.
No, eso es correcto.
¡Oh, Dios, lo encontró!
Sí.
Un escuchante llamado Andy Enright.
Andy es un agente de carro, que ahora vive en Australia.
Hi Andy.
Sí, me parece que es el mismo Andy, ¿no?
Yo estoy justificando un capo que no puede ser.
Pero estoy bastante seguro.
Es el mismo chap.
¡Hola Andy!
Si tú eres alguien,
él tiene información inerciosa.
¿Qué tiene?
Dice, desde el libro,
en sus ojos,
la historia de Julio Iglesias.
Él se ha traído una escena de la página relevanta.
Y este libro dice,
after piling into Julio's car,
the four guys decided to test the limits
of Julio's new Renault Dofan.
¡Oh!
Exceeding 100 miles per hour,
the car raced ahead in the still of the night.
I'm going to say this book slightly overwritten,
but just based on that sentence.
Everything was going smoothly until Julio
neared a dangerous curve in the road.
It was then that he lost control of the car
and skidded off the road.
Shaken but not visibly injured the four friends,
three of whom had been thrown from the car,
recovered their senses and walked into town for help.
All of them had minor injuries and saw muscles,
but the only thought on their minds
was that they were glad to be alive.
What meanwhile Hula was still in the car,
shouting please help me,
or did Hula...
¡Oh!
Yeah, beautiful tone on the house.
And that's when he realized he had a really good voice.
Yeah, because of that.
So that's a rear-engined Renault, isn't it?
Yes.
Right, so do you think he had a bit of a glasius understeer
going on there?
Glasosteer.
We've got some minor bollocings
about talking about Hula.
Look, this is closure.
We've found out thank you, Andy,
for tipping us off on this.
It's brilliant, great research.
I hope you don't buy that book, especially.
That's it, we know now.
We know.
So we can move on.
And I wanted to move on to something
that is actually car-relevant,
because for ages we've joked
about the Nissan GTR
being 117 years old.
Yes.
And it went off sale in...
Well, I think everywhere except Japan.
Was it pre-COVID?
I don't think so,
but I don't know how many
they were actually importing.
Yeah.
Look this up.
So it was only on sale in Japan.
They'd announced a while back
they could not take any more orders.
That was it.
All the orders were in.
They were only going to keep making for a while
and they were only going to make a certain number of cars.
And they were all spoken for.
But it was never quite clear
if production had ended already
or not, and you know,
Nissan's business, they don't have to tell people.
But last week
they announced that production had
in fact ended.
And there was a picture of the last car coming off the line.
So this is it now.
Pour one out
for the Nissan GTR.
So do you know why they said
look, we just can't take any more orders for it.
They didn't say we're ending it
or anything like that.
They were quite vague with their terminology.
It's because the workforce
who built the GTR
all average about 93
years old.
So they're just getting incredibly decrepit.
And they forget.
Yeah, and they're worried about quality control
because they're sort of like,
ah, I forgot whether I put that
that extra valve in the engine.
Oh, did I?
Because they're just very tired.
Yes, everyone's tired.
Everyone is tired.
Now, the engines
for the GTR.
There's lots of amazing facts.
I'm going to give another plug to Copassetic,
the magazine that's only
on its second issue,
but I've started this year.
But I've written a look
at the Nissan hyperforce concept
for issue two of Copassetic,
which is that now.
And this segues into a eulogy
for the R35 GTR.
And I took out my old notes
from when I went on the American launch
of the GTR.
And some of the stats and the facts
about how like the engine is mounted
at rest, canted slightly forward.
So that under acceleration,
the torque reaction can sit backwards.
And at that point it forms a perfect straight line
with the prop shaft to minimize friction.
Stuff like that.
It's mind boggling.
I've put all this into the Copassetic story.
But one of the things I've forgotten
is that only nine people
were ever allowed
to assemble the engines.
I remember this at the press launch.
I remember them talking in detail
about the sort of artisanal properties of the.
I think they were going down the AMG
type of route.
Yeah.
And seeing how slowly
how much time was labored over the process
and thus why it was going to be so strong
and dependable.
I think Nissan's press release
about the end of production
sort of accidentally allowed you to infer
that it was the same nine people
over the whole life of the car.
And I'm not sure that's true.
I think the point is that at any one time
in the GTR's life
there were only nine people
allowed to assemble the engines for it.
It's a pretty small team
considering that
it wasn't like a
one-a-week kind of car.
So yeah.
Anyway, that's it.
Paul went out for the GTR.
It has finally ended production
after 18 years.
Not 118 as we can say at some point.
Going back to Julio Iglesias.
Ever so briefly.
No.
No.
Only briefly to apologize to a couple of listeners.
Jonathan Wagner
from Offer Florida in America.
He just wrote to us and said,
thanks for getting the focus of the conversation
back on to cars a bit
after jumping the shark with all that Julio Iglesias talk.
Show seems much more focused
and interesting to me now.
But then again I'm from Florida.
Jonathan.
So sorry about going a bit Julio.
It's back.
Really,
I don't know why we talked about it for so long,
but we promise we won't do it again.
We're in sort of a rock and a hard place though
because when we did a show that was very car-chatty,
we've had a few people going,
ah good, thank goodness you're not wanging on
about a Spanish singer for once.
But then we had quite a few people going
steady on lads.
Last week was a bit more bobbins related
and people going, oh few, back to normal.
So it's hard to know how to pitch this really.
Yeah.
I don't know what our path is Rich.
No.
I was going to say also,
I need to follow up on this,
but friend of the show,
Brendan McAleer,
another car journalist in Canada,
said to me on Blue Sky the other day
that with some not inconsiderable effort
he was able to secure an interview
with one of the engine builders for the GTR.
Oh.
He rides a Kawasaki.
Really?
That's all the info I have,
I'll maybe ask Brendan if he has more to share.
We should.
I since remember the engines also were built in a
sort of hermetically sealed room
so that there can be no, you know, dust particles
because all the tolerances are very, very, very fine.
I, yeah, I just love the whole bloody thing.
But I especially love it,
I've said it before the way that they
quite sternly and smugly
said during the extensive press launch
that the engine will not be modifiable
in any shape or form.
And I don't know,
almost felt like within four days
of the cargo on sale
somebody went, yeah,
a thousand horsepower, damn it, easy.
I tried to find out but ran out of time
for my eucoposetic story
how long it took for somebody to tune a GTR
but I couldn't find a definitive answer.
It was definitely not long
no.
And it's amazing how much extra power
people very quickly got out of that car
without doing anything fundamental to the engine.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it was, I think, I think this I knew
looking back at some of the sort of contemporary reports
and press releases,
I sort of got the feeling
what they were trying to say was
you won't need to tune this car.
It's good enough and fast enough
and we've put a lot of effort.
You know, don't start thinking
you need to fiddle with it
but of course that people do.
So going back to Silverstone Festival
lots of interesting things
lots of interesting eye candy
but because I was there for work purposes
and I couldn't get to see all the racing stuff
but parked in the
one of the paddock areas with the race cars
and had the joy of seeing a Fervez Ranger
that strange little short wheelbase
looks like an amphibious mini-moke
but it's based on a Fiat 850
or a Fiat 500
yellow, no roof,
kind of a Doctor Evil vibe to it.
Yeah.
Very rare.
There's one of those being used as a pit car
for a team racing on Ford Mustang.
It might have been Alan Mann
Mustang, actually.
I think it was Red and Gold
which was great
and the other thing
amongst all the other cars in the auction
the iconic auction which I was reporting on
guess what?
I saw some guys coming in to empty the bins
and they were in an immaculate
and I mean immaculate
I actually cooed at it
Fiat fullback pickup truck.
Oh, someone's got the fullback.
Someone's got the fullback
they've got to be
in the not too distant future
one of the rarest pickup trucks of all time
they've got to be.
Yeah.
I mean they're almost like a sort of
nearly new rev but nobody cares.
Yeah.
Surely nobody gives a monkey's toss about this.
They're just like,
what are they,
you just go buy them at Subishi.
I know, right?
That's the thing.
Well it's best not to worry about it too much.
Could I just very quickly do a look?
No.
Okay.
Oh, I was just going to do
a little call back to last week
and whenever we first mentioned this
unusual.
Oh, just a question from the audience
our piston heads and your service show, wasn't it?
About unusual student cars.
We've had loads of these.
I know, I've been getting DMs about those
and all sorts.
It's been, it's one of those ones
where it's like it's quite hard to keep track
so I've sort of almost randomly just pulled out
the first ones I could find including
as someone called himself JF
who's a one of our patrons
as says around the turn of the millennium
I was a graphic design student in Bristol
and earned a bit of cash selling
booze in an off licence.
One of my colleagues was a girl
whose name I can't remember
but her housemate and fellow student
dropped me home one night
in his Lancia Delta integrale.
What the hell?
I have no idea what insurance
must have been for a left hand drive Lancia
in Bristol, but I suspect it was more
than my annual student fees.
That's, I mean...
That's a nearly new car in Bristol right now.
Well, it's wildly futuristic
because it's got a clock standard, yeah.
Well, wildly futuristic.
I don't, that's the style, isn't it?
Chap now again.
I'm going to mangle a name.
I'm going to say...
D-E-J-A-N.
So, Dejan or Dejan.
He's in Slovenia.
Okay.
So I'm going to say there's a soft J there.
So D-D-A-N.
Sorry.
Please do write in and say it's pronounced like this.
You absolute dick quit.
Anyway, he says...
I was a student in the late 90s
and the car park at my university
was full of European cars around his four and five
old BMWs, some old Mercs,
many Zastava 101 and Zastava Ugos.
But there was also a Dodge Charger
like the General Lee from Dukes of Hazard,
but lime green with a black vinyl roof
on stock 13 or 14 inch steel wheels
with big tires.
I don't remember what motor it had,
but we all knew the owner.
He was the son of a big car dealer
and because the noise when he started the V8
could be heard all through the car park.
That's amazing.
A Dodge Charger is a student car.
In the late 90s as well.
Yeah.
Bloody hell.
I mean, it's ridiculous.
I don't know what to say to that.
No.
There's another...
We've sort of gone...
Now, this is like overseas university craziness
this edition.
We had another message from...
Listener Martin,
who's in the Netherlands.
He says,
The father of my aunt by marriage
made his fortune not in finance,
oil or pharmaceuticals,
but in sewer cleaning.
Apparently, there is serious money
in shifting other people's waste.
He spent the 90s living the good life
in a ruber where his runabout
was a Porsche 968 Cabrio
in a suitably breezy color.
Oh wow.
Breezy color.
That's very good.
But he also kept a little something
in Holland for the rare occasion
to do back.
A little something in Holland.
A little something in Holland.
Just a little something.
In this case,
the little something was a BMW 850 CI.
Oh my gosh.
I know.
A little something that's a bit overkill
for Holland.
Isn't it?
Yeah.
Oh, I might need it in case
I need to get it by hill.
Okay.
It sat tucked away
in the Dutch list of writing in Go.
We do have hills actually.
Martin says it sat tucked away
in the garage most of the year
like a forgotten Swiss watch
he taken out when he fancied
a splash of the Autobahn.
But here's the twist.
When the daughters from his second marriage
an eye-catching pair of blond twins
went off to university,
their student wheels weren't the usual
battered micro or moldy polo.
No, they wafted to lectures
in Dad's V12 Grand Chora.
What?
A pair of 20-year-olds casually turning up
in an eight series coupé.
You could imagine the stir it caused
in the university car park.
Yes.
V12.
The rationale here is just so out of whack.
Yes.
We've got a friend of the show
who actually works in the car industry
and I'll just call him Alistair
or he might prefer to be called
the wee Jackie Scorpio enthusiast.
And he sent me a message saying,
hey, I had a mate at school.
This is around 2001
who was Bulgarian,
certainly the son of Eastern European
heavy industry,
possibly and or organized crime,
I don't know.
I remember he had a brand spanking new
BMW E46 M3 SMG,
Gunmetal 18s
and that cinnamon leather on the launch cars.
Sweet, sweet car.
As well as his car,
I remember this individual
was also a popular member of the school community
for selling Eastern European grot DVDs
from a plane black hold all bag.
Sorry.
A plane bag.
Did you say a plane black old, old bag?
Plane black hold all bag.
Oh, hold all.
Hold all.
You know like a cylindrical bag.
Yes.
Cylindrical bag.
Yeah.
Sorry.
I thought you said cylindrical bag.
Cylindrical bag.
Seriously.
One more.
Juro spec,
unusual uni car
from Rodriguez.
He, he said,
I was listening to the most recent podcast
discussing ridiculous student cars.
It made me think back to 2011
when I was studying at the University of Antwerp in Belgium.
During the exam period,
there was a girl who would show up driving
a matte pink Maserati Gran Cabrio.
I was so surprised.
I even took a picture of it.
It was a quality photo taken with an ancient iPhone.
It was 2011.
And sure enough, there is a, a very pink Maser,
which would have been new at that point as well.
Yeah, it would have been.
Would that have been an early vinyl wrap here
or actual paint?
I guess so.
Yeah, matte as well.
So I don't know, but that's,
that's full.
That's like legally blonde spec, basically.
Yeah.
One last one of these,
which is back in the UK,
but I think you'll like
it lends itself to 60s man,
even though this is actually from the 80s.
This is a listener called Tim,
says I was at Cambridge in the 80s.
In general, student cars were banned,
though a friend of mine kept his fiesta
round the corner from our college
and a friend of his,
at one of the more traditional colleges,
flouted the ban by keeping,
not far from the centre of town,
his ancient alvis.
No way.
It was in fairly ropey condition,
but was a runner most of the time.
I had a lift in it a few times
and recall the incompleteness of the interior
in particular,
as well as the time we had to get out
and walk when it wouldn't start.
I'm pretty sure it was four doors,
so I suppose it was most likely
a three litre from the 1950s.
Now this is a very interesting subject
and the reason for that,
because I was going to bring up
the subject of 60s person.
The reason for that
is because I've had a few people saying
please, please,
would you do some more
1960s related conversation?
You see, there's a problem.
I don't know actually what to say.
So I'd like to invite people
to write to us
with maybe some text
of the period, correct text,
or maybe something that's completely
fabricated and is utter bollocks.
The choice is yours,
but please send it to us at the
www.smithandsniff.com
Yes.
I found something out
about woodpeckers this week
and also about
the Kardashians.
Okay.
I think it might be the only interesting
thing about the Kardashians
to me
and it's about one
and unfortunately
I've already forgotten which Kardashian it is.
They all start with a K, don't they?
They all start with a K.
Kim, Khloe, Kit Kat,
Nacobag.
Kylie, yes, but Kylie
is not a Kardashian.
Isn't she a Jenner?
Oh bollocks, I don't know.
I can't say.
Nacobag Kardashian.
It's a silent K.
Amazing country western singer.
See them at South by Southwest.
Oh, as you know, Nacobag would be like
who's that guy, machine gun Kelly?
Oh, yes.
Nacobag Kardashian.
Lots of tats in places that look like they hurt
and he's a rival to Machine Gun Kelly,
Nacobag Kardashian.
I can't hear the surname Kardashian
without thinking the brilliant
Joel McHale on the
soup if anyone remembers that
fantastic TV show.
He always used to call them the Kardashians
for some reason.
And it's stuck.
Kim Kardashian.
Anyway, sorry, go on.
Woodpecker and Kardashian.
So I'll come on to the Woodpecker
because that's the interesting bit.
They're not related to Kardashians.
One of the Kardashians
shared a picture
on Instagram
that was thrown under our noses.
One of them
bought a P38
Range Rover.
Oh, I saw you put this on
our Instagram.
I shared it on a story
because I was like, what's going on here?
I think it is
one of the
sort of, what do you call them?
Second batch Kardashians.
Oh, hey, it's Kendall.
It's Kendall.
Yes, they've got a
on their Instagram
there's a picture
and it's actually quite badly cropped.
A rear three-quarter of a green
P38 and it says
happiness.
That's the only word.
Well, she's clearly just got it
and has yet to experience any massive
electrical faults. Well, quite.
The suspension looks at the normal height.
There's no aftermarket wheels.
The towing eyes
is intact.
But this totally makes sense to me
because we are now
deeply into an era where
people of a certain age
are really into 80s and 90s
cars.
We saw it at Festival Un Exceptional.
I don't know how old
Kendall Mintcake is, but she's
clearly of that sort of generation
that the Kardashian
family in general seem to like a
Range Rover.
What could be better
for a young woman on the cutting edge
of fashion than to get an amazing
retro Range Rover
from a 90s retro one.
I kind of like it because I've not
I know that the P38
it was going to happen
at some point
but the fact that someone
I could just be a bit
snobby and snooty about this and just say
she doesn't interest me.
She doesn't particularly interest me.
However, the fact that she could
pretty much buy any car
in the world probably
and she's chosen to
hang around that and
broadcast that, interest me.
I like that. I think okay.
That's kind of cool. I've found another
picture of
I believe this is Kendall Jenner though
I'm not 100% on what she looks like
all the time but
I think this must be a photo shoot.
It's definitely a photo shoot because it's really nicely done but she's posing
next to
a metallic brown
Range Rover Classic.
Oh, okay. I think it's an
LSE. Okay.
But I've seen that's a photo
shoot rather than her car.
She's an old Range Rover Collector.
She is
maybe her and with the
aforementioned scooter
chap that
talks over heavy
heavy trance tracks.
I think he likes his Classic Ranges as well, doesn't he?
So he
or is he a Rolls Guy?
We had a message about him, didn't we?
Yeah, we did. It turns out he's
weight a sec.
I've also just
there's a picture here.
This is a picture of Kendall Jenner
in
an 80's Land Cruiser
in that sort of
beige color with brown
and orange side stripes.
Oh wow. She's got good car taste
she has. I know.
Hasn't she? This is great.
This is very sort of cool retro stuff
but tasteful.
It's going back to
the era
when SUVs
were just starting, I think
just starting to get luxurious.
It's an era
I've just driven a car yesterday
and filmed it for The Late Brake Show
one of those brand new
old Land Cruisers
Oh really?
It's a reminder of one
of those Land Cruisers
where you still have
rubber seals around the windows
and largely flat windscreen
and it's all very 80's
and mechanical
and extremely capable off-road
but it feels kind of classy
without trying to push
the luxury too hard
and I like that era.
Johnny, I don't want to get you too excited
but there's another photo here of Kendall Jenner
driving her 1969 Chevrolet Camaro
SS convertible.
Piss off. Okay.
We could actually exchange words then.
I feel like you might have something to talk about.
Yeah, she's
and then
there's another photo of her here
with
a Ferrari
What is that?
I find it so difficult to tell these new Ferraris apart.
SPF 30
SPF 90
and you all like this because I know
that you like brown cars
it's brown, it almost looks like Porsche
Macadamia, similar.
Oh.
Yeah, she's got a brown Ferrari SF90
She looks like she's got
a 59
oh, I think it's a 60.
60. Cadillac El Dorado
Cabrio.
Oh gosh, I wonder if these are her, any of these are hers.
Well, I mean
why would they not be? She's very well off
and I think she likes
cool cars.
There's a picture here.
Oh, this is posed, isn't it?
But there's a picture of her
filling up the Cadillac with petrol.
It's not like it's on a photo shoot or something.
It's just normal stuff.
I think we have to add
Kendall Jenner to our guest
waver list because I feel like
she's got...
She can check cars, yeah.
She's got some stuff to discuss.
This is great.
Photo here of an Audi R8. Jesus.
Wow.
One of she owns that oil company,
Kendall Oil,
which is supposed to be good oil.
I'm not sure if she's affiliated with that.
What?
I've never heard of that and I don't know
what you mean, but yeah.
So we've done that, we've ticked that
the Kendall Jenner.
Woodpeckers.
Not related to motoring at all, although
I guess it's a form of suspension.
I got told the other day
how woodpeckers
avoid head injury when they're
packing.
So I've delved into the BBC website.
Slow motion footage
reveals how woodpeckers
avoid injuries on their brains
as they pack.
The heads move at
6 milliseconds,
6 meters per second.
20 feet per second.
Each pack during a deceleration
more than a thousand times
as of gravity.
But they've realized
that what they do
is they
they manage to wrap their
own tongue around
their skull
to use as a sort of seat belt
cum
shock absorber.
I did not know this until last week.
I saw this on a TV thing.
Incredible.
The tongue hooks up into the back of their skull,
like a brain shock absorber.
Yes, exactly that.
A highly developed bone called a hyoid
which in humans is just above the
Adam's apple has been studied
starting at the underside of the
bird's beaks and it makes a full
loop through their nostrils
under and around the back of their skulls
over the top
and meeting again before the forehead
and the birds have a little
subdural space between their brains
and their skulls so the brain
does not have room
to bump around as it does in us
humans
and their brains are longer top
to bottom than front to back
meaning the force against the skull
is spread over a larger brain area
Well, I never
Because if you tried that
you'd go...
You don't want your tongue to go back into your head
but how clever they are
If you tried that you'd go
just go to the mini morrissons around the corner
like a raisons
I've just remembered I've got a hammer action drill
I'll probably use that to make a hole in the ceiling
rather than trying to use my face
because it's making my brain hurt
With such trats
Well, we're talking about it
We are
At Verizon
The joy just keeps on coming
Right now
you can save on four new phones
and four lines
Critics agree it's the deal
that keeps on giving
Come into Verizon and save on four new phones
and four lines on unlimited welcome
Additional terms applied
See Verizon.com for details
We were talking
off the show
The other day about someone we know
who buys a lot of cars
And you coined a brilliant term
that I've never really thought about before
the phenomenon of the catch and release car buyer
Oh, of course
I nearly forgot about this
Yes, the catch and release
So I'm convinced
I think it seems
to be more of a male thing in the car world
but I could be totally wrong
It's the hunter-gatherer
that's innately within us
Must find the next rare thing
Must chase the bargain car
But when you've got it
sometimes the thrill
ceases and you go
I've got it now
Do I want to use it?
Do I want to rebuild it?
Do I want to MOT it or do the wheel bearing?
Don't know, really
Yeah, I just put it
on Facebook Marketplace again
That is the thing isn't it
The thrill of the chase
There's a huge thrill of the chase
I am in
I was just telling you this before we started recording
I've been a bit of a dilemma
because I've sort of been offered a car
that I would really like
but I absolutely do not need
and I have bought two cars this year already
which is not necessary
No Richard
It's the thrill
of in this case
something sort of landing in your lap a little bit
to turn this down
this thing I absolutely do not need
but I think for some people it's the chase
or it's just the
you know because I'm terrible for this
I suppose I could be worse
I just get a craving for a car
Tell me about it
The Panda 100 horsepower is a great case in point
I was like I won't rest until I've got one of those
but then I sort of foolishly bought a cheap one
to try and make the feeling go away
but some people just give in to those urges
but as soon as they've got it they go
I'll tell you who's like that a little bit
I certainly used to be
Is he a big catch and release guy?
He is a catch and release
I've never really thought about it
but that is the way to describe him
Once a few years ago
he was offered an absolutely immaculate
Citroen Saxo VTS
Oh
I know
There was one at the auction
at the classic car auction at Silverstone
and
we packed up filming it before I'd seen it
and I was really annoyed because I thought
that's actually very very hard to find that car
very hard
This one was tidy as anything
and I think I was thinking
we were making the grand tour at the time
so he was in the office and I think he showed us some pictures on his phone
someone's offered me this Saxo VTS
it's someone I know and I trust
and he says it's good and I believe him
and it's like I've got to get it haven't I
we're like yeah you have got to get it
and so he did and he bought it
he went to the office a couple of times
and we all went oh look at that
that's brilliant he was like yeah it's great
and then the next thing I was like how's the Saxo
and he went oh sold it
he's just like oh I did really need it
I just kind of wanted it but you know
it's like I don't I've got too many cars
so then he just let it go
absolute catch and release
absolute catch and release
there's no River Monsters in Uendo here
it's just the thrill of the automotive chase
but you never entirely know
I'm just going to run after it
I'm going to do a deal
I'm going to get on the train and fetch it
or do a early morning sprint
down to get it with a friend or whatever it might be
it's totally catch and release
you know what Rich I've got to get rid of a car
or two soon
yeah I've got to be quite rational
but the problem is
is the catch and release
within me
doing the job that I do
I've done a barn find
day before yesterday
I won't tell you exactly what it is
but it was small and Japanese
and it was absolutely
time warp
beautiful, now it's not for sale
it's staying in the same family as it's always been
but
pinned on to the wall in the garage
were other little
Japanese cars that this family
had owned
and the original owner
the late dad
was absolutely fastidious
he was a retired detective
in the C11 squad
in Scotland Yard I think
so he was all about pinning things on boards
because he was an old school detective
pre computers
so he had brochures pinned on the wall in the garage
with like asterisks
and things that he definitely would want
things that he definitely didn't want
and they'd owned
prior to the thing in the garage
the Honda Z Coupe
the little orange
beautiful little thing
that was only available in orange
and I kept looking at the post
it was only available in orange
I didn't realise that
and it was pinned on the wall
and all day we were chatting about it
because the lovely guys
who were the family of the barn find
they said oh yeah yeah
he had one of those
he bought it when it was about a year old
and then sold the first gen Civic
to get the car that's in the garage now
so he really loved small Japanese
things
and I looked at this all day
pinned on the wall
you can hear it, it's in my hand
they actually took it off the pin board
you should have this
and it is an original Honda UK
brochure from Power Road
Chisic London
and it's got
the full spec on the back of the Z600
y of course having owned
a fair amount of Hondas
and still own a couple
I'm just going
I want a Z, I want a Z Coupe
I really want, I love orange anyway
and I love small cars
that are quite natally designed
I just want one, so I've started looking for one
it's like no, you've got to get rid of some cars
there's a Honda I need to sell unfortunately
but why am I looking for one
it's the catch and release in me
it is, but in fairness
buying
interesting cars
is arguably part of your job
because you have a successful youtube channel
it's true
I mean I wouldn't say it's true
yes it's successful, I mean it's fairly
successful, I don't mean to say that
hi I'm self congratulatory guys
no no, take to yourself down it is
because I was thinking this the other day
when was this last week
or the week before
I saw a very cheap
Jaguar I-PACE
for sale, en fact I sent it to you
and you willfully ignored me
and I realised that
you didn't want that
absolute bargains now, right now
it did seem so didn't it
now if I had my own youtube channel
in which I shouted guys a lot
but also relied
on the churn of cars
and buying stuff that people are going to go
this is going to go badly
I would be all over that I-PACE
because genuinely as well
just interested to think
well what is the worst
that could happen you know
it's a good car, I had an I-PACE
I thought it was an excellent car
it gave me no trouble, it was new
had it for a couple of years
and it was really good
but this one was sort of like 8 in a bit grand
oh my gosh is that all
I'm just seeing if it's still for sale
it is not so
but sub 10k
executive EVs like that
and the I-PACE was one of the best Jags
in a long long time there's so much effort
put into that car
I really liked it
they're really really nice to drive
and it's actually very useful
loads of room in it
and I
there's a certain little detail
things that lets it down, the earlier ones
a very laggy
infotainment system
it's okay but it wasn't state of the art
I think the later ones have got the better system
and some of those early cars
do have a battery problem
which Jaguar is buying back
affected models
because there's a fire risk for the batteries
LG supplied the batteries
and sounds like they screwed it up
which is rare because LG
were for a long time
the best battery chemistry people
I don't know if they are considered to be
yeah I don't know what the issue
precisely is with these but yes
the affected cars were given
over the air software updates
which restricted charging
to try and mitigate the problem
but ultimately
if you want to Jaguar would
make you an offer on your car
there's actually a picture somewhere online I've seen
a rack, you know scrapyards that have racks
a rack of I-Paces that have been part
of the buyback scheme
are going to be squashed
nothing to make a great car for 8 or 9 grand
bloody hell
I cannot
this car doesn't seem to be for sale anymore
so I'm going to say that it's sold
perhaps I shouldn't have drawn attention to it
on social media
no you shouldn't
anyway, if I was
influencer and I wanted something to talk about
then I would have
well
I've got to mention
two quick things about the Silverstone Festival
I forgot to mention two observations
one of them
the paddock was full of very cool race cars
I couldn't help noticing the frequency
of
busy and modified
K trucks
that were being used to tow
trailers full of slick tyres
and other odds and sorts
and they're really popular
and it's great to see
there's a lot of one-upmanship you can tell
some of them had like megaphone exhaust
some of them had kind of like
slightly bad boy eyebrows
with the headlights
they're really neat
they beat a golf cart any day
years ago now at Le Mans
Audi
the Audi team were using a Honda Acti
quite an old one as well
but it was completely standard
except
they'd stuck an Audi badge on the front
had they?
otherwise I've got a patriotism
I'll try to get out for our patriot
but yeah
they're cool for little duties like that
I guess aren't they?
and the other thing that I saw
off of the Silverstone Festival
this is just as I was leaving
before I got stuck behind the steam rally
which I did capture on camera
because one private property
I saw a huge American
RV
motorhome
and continuing everyone's favourite game
of the summer
this one was called the Cyclone
and I thought
I thought to myself
if you said
were you alright the other night after that curry
and I just said look
I won't go into details but let's just say
anal cyclone
I think that's all you need to know
I couldn't stop giggling
I was giggling about the anal cyclone
for ages and ages and ages
so thanks to whoever parked their cyclone
at Silverstone Festival
and thanks to everyone who keeps sending in
your imagery
playing the game
tag us in
tag us in to stories on instagram
because we will share these things
if they're funny
because you guys are funnier than we are
ok well that seems like an appropriate note
on which to wrap things up
before we go
the first is that Johnny's got a new project
he's planning to open a restaurant
the gimmick here is that complimentary beverages
will be dispensed by the former lead singer
Marillion
who comes around to refill your glass
from a jug he's literally just topped up
from the tap under the working title
Freshwater Fish
if that's not to your taste
then of course there's the late break show
well it's happened now isn't it
Silverstone Auctions has gone
Silverstone Auctions has gone yet
but what else have you got for us
well this latest one
is from if my memory serves me correct
this is a barn find
a Saab
I think it's my first Saab barn find
a pretty much a one lady owner
Saab 96
and I have to say
this car was in such delightful condition
it was a real joy of a day
and so
and there were some other trinkets
lying around the farm as well
that we were snafling upon
so go and have a look at that
I think this week
I filmed my 71st barn find
or 72nd
I'm not very good at maths
but it's a lot anyway
a lot of the barn finds
and um
before we sign off I must say
I'm selling a vintage ride on mower
so I've decided
I can't, I've got to keep
release catching and releasing
I can't keep these things
you're in release mode aren't you
I'm trying to be because I'm moving house soon
in catch mode and it's not good
oh I love it, I like living through you
when you're in catch mode because it makes me feel better
although I keep getting off of things relentlessly
but um
this is the problem isn't it, you create your own problem
but you create your own situation
your own destiny
look um that's all the smashing
if you want a ride on mower
I don't know, are you going to put some stuff on our
yeah I might do, it's a British Anzani lawn rider
I'm just going to put it out there
there's not a cool the ride on mower
either, from the 60s
that's a negative lawn rider
ok so
the second thing I'll tell you is
we were, I mentioned
a couple of weeks ago that we were on the Waymo channel
watching cars leaving, first of all the exceptional
we went and sat down with Charlie
from Waymo and watched cars leaving
Pistonheads annual service
and that went live last week
so go and seek that out
it's like it's over an hour I think
isn't it, of us just bobbing
a camera that's catching the cars going by
in a very shoddy way
because I thought the bits where I reset
the camera would be cut out but they do split screen now
so if you want to feel a bit seasick
go and watch that
and the third thing
got serious, Biddy Baxter
the legendary boss of Blue Peter
died last month, you might have seen
but what you might not know is that
the very first Blue Peter dog
Petra, who has a statue
in her honour in the grounds of
former television centre
was actually a fake
what, the statue or the dog
well, the dog
Biddy Baxter admitted this a few years later
but basically
the programme got its first dog
hey kids we've got a dog, yay
it didn't get run over the day after
no, it was ill
and it died two days after
it had been on TV
so rather than make a thing of it and upset children
they just went and got a lookalike puppy
and went here she is, yay
and that was it but actually Petra
was the second Petra
sorry if that spoilt anyone's childhood
is Blue Peter still going?
I genuinely don't know
is it? oh okay
okay great
Petra's not, she's long gone
no, she's not
that's why she's got a statue
well next week we'll continue
all the absolute bobbins
we'll go easy on the iglesias
we'll try normal mowers
and catching and releasing
if you've got anything you want to share
hello at smithandsniff.com
if you're Kendall Kardashian you want to come
and talk about brown cars
and vintage Range Rovers
we will clear the schedules for that
if not business as usual next week
goodbye
cheers mate, thanks mate, bye

About this episode
A lively discussion unfolds as the hosts delve into the unexpected intersection of woodpeckers and the Kardashians, revealing a Kardashian's newfound love for a vintage Range Rover. They also explore the curious case of an ultramarathon runner banned for using a car during a race, leading to debates about car theft trends, particularly with Land Rovers. The episode is peppered with anecdotes about unique student cars and the thrill of car buying, culminating in a nostalgic look at the Nissan GTR's production end after 18 years.
