1
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:09,039
Speaker 1: It's a very special app this week as we go

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,800
Speaker 1: direct to La to get all the goss on the

3
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 1: Megan Fox machine gun Kelli engagement ladies and gentlemen, our

4
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: Hollywood correspondents, Polly, Oh my good, poorly tell us the latest.

5
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 2: Ah, I'm not going to reciprocate with an accent, because

6
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 2: my accent's are shit. Ouse.

7
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: Look at you over in La Live in the LifeStyle's.

8
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: Beautiful tan on me as well, don't you think?

9
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you just look like you've put a

10
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: bunch of soy sauce and a water pistol and gone nuts.

11
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 2: I've been eating incredibly unhealthily over here.

12
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: Have you gotten into the barbecue?

13
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, we did barbecue last night. I've had in and

14
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,279
Speaker 2: out too many times, I hoped too many times. I

15
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: think you're gonna have to roll me onto the plane.

16
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 2: It'll be disgusting.

17
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 1: But anyway, Oh, is that the seven four seven you

18
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: quite enjoy flying as an engineer on his Instagram page

19
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: was the best post I've ever seen as an engineer.

20
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: It's such an honor to be on this plane wearing

21
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: these sensible slacks. Love you. Here's a deal, right, So

22
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: Paul gets flown over there for I'm just going by

23
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: what I know so far for some sort of Bentley convention.

24
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: Give's the deal. You get flown over there first class.

25
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: We need to work on your fashion because you posted

26
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: this photo of yourself in first class as an engineer

27
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: on A seven four seven, I'm like, what is he doing?

28
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 2: What is he doing? I was meant to be going

29
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 2: over on a Dreamliner and they switched it out for

30
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: the A three eighty and I just love that plane,

31
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 2: so as an engineer, So yeah, it was fascinating.

32
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah. You know what else is fascinating? Just when

33
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: you thought Rivers was going out of business. No, they're

34
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: not Paul's dress head to toe. Couldn't you have just

35
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: thrown on the Conics pj's or something.

36
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: You know what's funny. When I used to live in

37
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,119
Speaker 2: a bit of a shitty area, I threw a set

38
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 2: of business class pajamas out and I went down to

39
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 2: our shops like the three or four days after, and

40
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 2: there was a dude sitting there like begging for money,

41
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 2: wearing the Quantus pajamas that I threw in our bin.

42
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: And then you bent down as if you were going

43
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: to give him money, and you just whispered, give those back.

44
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 2: Now, I just took the shirt off that. Thanks.

45
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: You ripped the pants and shirt off him in front

46
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: of everybody.

47
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 2: I will say, though, So I've been over here driving

48
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 2: the Bentley Flying Spur hybrid. So here in the States

49
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: there's huge incentives, especially in California, for hybrids and electric vehicles,

50
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 2: and Bentley sells an incredible amount of Continentals and Flying

51
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 2: Spurs here, especially in California. Now that they're bringing the

52
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 2: hybrid version out. It's a plug in hybrid, which means

53
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 2: you've got a little over forty kilometers of driving range,

54
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 2: and it's like the epitome of luxury. So it really

55
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: blends in beautifully down here, and it's just the weirdest dichotomies.

56
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 2: We were staying in Beverly Hills and you'll drive a

57
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 2: little out of Beverly Hills and you'll pull up to

58
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: an intersection where and homelessness is out of control in

59
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 2: Los Angeles at the moment after the pandemic. You'll pull

60
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: up to an intersection where you'll have someone begging for money.

61
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: They'll have a cardboard cut out with something written on it,

62
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: and at the traffic lights there will be like a

63
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: may Bark, a G sixty three wagon Ferrari, and it's like,

64
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 2: this is just so wrong that you've got a dude

65
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 2: asking for money and then you're in this area where

66
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: someone's driving around in a three or four hundred thousand

67
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 2: dollars you may buck. It's it is just the weirdest

68
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 2: thing in the world. And I think this is probably

69
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 2: like the only place in the world where that happens,

70
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 2: where you've got the two extremes of poverty and then

71
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 2: just just wealth. It's just so bizarre.

72
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got friends living over there and they've never

73
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: seen the divide so big. I can't remember the name

74
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: of the street, but you drive for miles and it's

75
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: literally tense city ten after ten after ten.

76
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: Yes, skid rows. It used to just be one street

77
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 2: in sort of the Los Angeles downtown area that's now

78
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 2: become blocks of tents. Now under pretty much every overpass

79
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 2: you'll see tent city set up. And I've been coming

80
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: to the States for two or three times a year

81
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: for the past five ten years, and I've never seen

82
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 2: it this bad. So it is really sad to see.

83
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 2: And I know this is a car podcast, but yeah,

84
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 2: it is really sad to see. It makes you feel

85
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 2: shit driving around in a Bentley that's worth like seven

86
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars. You pull up at the lights and

87
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 2: there's some bloke there that that hasn't eaten for a week,

88
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 2: begging for money, and it's just a I don't know.

89
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure you get used to it living here, but

90
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 2: to me, it was just a real odd feeling. It

91
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: just makes you feel really strange about yourself.

92
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: You did tell me that you got over that after

93
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: half an hour as you scoffed down a lobster and

94
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: cavia role.

95
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: Well, this is this is how ridiculous it is. Like

96
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 2: we I needed to get some money out and I

97
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 2: had this money. It was just this nightmare of a

98
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 2: thing getting money out. And anyway, I said to the

99
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: hotel concierge, can you just tell me where I can

100
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 2: get money out? And he's like, oh, at the right aid,

101
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 2: they've got like a money order facility, and he goes,

102
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 2: do you need a lift there? And I said, oh, look,

103
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 2: that would be amazing. So he says, I'll get our

104
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 2: driver to give you a lift, and he pulls up

105
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: out the front in a rolls Royce ghost and I

106
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 2: said oh god, Okay, So I jump in the back

107
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 2: and he pulls up at the front of the pharmacy

108
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 2: and I get out rolls Royce to get into the sea.

109
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: It's just like a roll of homeless people to yourself,

110
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: gold plated condoms, anybody. Wow?

111
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 2: So yeah, look look bet Bentley Flying Spur hybrid. Awesome car.

112
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 2: The thing I love about it it's got such a

113
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: clever system. And I don't know why more plug in

114
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,559
Speaker 2: hybrids don't use this, but it has a hybrid mode

115
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 2: and it interacts with the GPS and if you set

116
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 2: a location that's you know, five hundred kilometers away or

117
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 2: even one hundred and fifty one whatever distance away, what

118
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 2: the car is able to do is look at the

119
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 2: topography of the route. So for us, we did a

120
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 2: drive sort of in through some canyons and down toward Ventura.

121
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 2: And what the car was able to do is in

122
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 2: situations where it was more efficient to run on the

123
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 2: electric motor, it would do that, and then in downhill

124
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 2: it would switch the internal combustion engine off and then

125
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 2: recharge the battery while it was going downhill using region

126
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 2: And the end result is you arrive at your destination

127
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 2: with no battery left because you've used the most efficient

128
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 2: form of internal combustion engine plus EV drive train to

129
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 2: get there. I thought that is a really cool implementation

130
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 2: of this technology, which kind of makes sense in a

131
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 2: vehicle like this.

132
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: That is pretty cool. And so when you start, does

133
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: that mean effectively you're running on no you're running on

134
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: no juice.

135
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, so when you start, the idea is that you

136
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: fill the battery completely. And what Bentley was saying is

137
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 2: that of their owners, something like seventy percent of owners

138
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 2: had an EV of some sort, so whether it was

139
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 2: a plug in hybrid Bentley or a Tesla or just

140
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: any other EV. And of those people, ninety seven percent

141
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: had charging at home. So these are people that have houses.

142
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 2: They're obviously not living in a terrace in Sydney or

143
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 2: something like that. They've got houses and charging infrastructure. So

144
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 2: a lot of these people will charge when they get home,

145
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 2: and they will drive to their destination, which is generally

146
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 2: not very far away, and it'll be all on electric.

147
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 2: You might be switching the engine on. So it's just

148
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 2: a really fascinating setup and I think that they've done

149
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: a good job there in terms of just making it

150
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 2: all work.

151
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: You know, once you get to this sort of elite

152
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: level of cars, I find that they have their own

153
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: languide in terms of Larks, in terms of.

154
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: How they drive.

155
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: You know, they say nothing drives like a Bentley, Nothing

156
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: drives like a Rolls. How's the transition been from say,

157
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: internal combustion Bentley to hybrid you know what I mean? Like,

158
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: does it still feel like a Bentley?

159
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 2: Look Bentley. Bentley's interesting because they don't want to be

160
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 2: Rolls Royce, and when you think Rolls Royce you kind

161
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 2: of think old person. Bentley is really targeting a younger market,

162
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 2: a broader spread of people, to the point where you

163
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 2: have fifty nine billion combinations of colors, interior specs, trims,

164
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 2: you know, anything you want you can customize on the car,

165
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 2: and it means that you can really personalize this and

166
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 2: it's unlikely that you'll ever see another Bentley on the

167
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 2: road that's configured the exact same as yours. And they've

168
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 2: gone down the path with the cabins of just really

169
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: going to town on luxury and making you feel good

170
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 2: whether you're sitting in the front or the back. They've

171
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 2: now also gone down the path of eliminating leather. If

172
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 2: you don't want it, so you can get a full

173
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 2: vegan interior. So yeah, they really have thought about everything here.

174
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,959
Speaker 2: And I think that Rolls Royce should be worried because

175
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 2: Bentley really is now coming with cars that are as

176
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 2: luxury as, if not more luxuriers, but just have a

177
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 2: different vibe and image to them.

178
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I reckon Rolls was a bit slow to the

179
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: party with that sort of stuff. I heard this really

180
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: cool story. I don't know if it's true, but pretty

181
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: much the head the CEO of Rolls Royce was walking

182
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: into a cafe and saw Rolls out the front with

183
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: a black grill, black Spirit of Ecstasy, you know, maybe

184
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: a Matt Finish and stuff like that, and he said, wow,

185
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: how did you get that? Looks fantastic. How did you

186
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: get this sort of car? And he said, oh, Rolls

187
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: Royce doesn't do it. This driver obviously had no idea

188
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: who the guy was. Rolls Royce doesn't do it. So

189
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: I went out about and saw about getting it myself.

190
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: And that's pretty much apparently the backstory to how the

191
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: Black Edition.

192
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 2: Came out interesting because they hang their hat on that

193
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 2: basically blacking out all the highlights and just really sort

194
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 2: of murdering the thing out, and they have to do

195
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 2: that because the mographic of their buyers just wants something

196
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 2: that's different, but wants everyone to know that it's a

197
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 2: Rolls Royce and if you don't give them the option

198
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 2: of configuring that, you're just never going to sell them

199
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 2: a car. They'll just go to go and buy Bentley instead.

200
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: There's some amazing roles out there, like now that you can.

201
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: They have allowed a lot of customizable options and stuff

202
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: like that. There was a black one for sale in

203
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,839
Speaker 1: Sydney and it was sort of like a gun metal

204
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: gray there. It was a black addition convertible, completely bright

205
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: orange interior and they had this line on the outside

206
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: of the car that was matching the interior, so this

207
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: kind of hand painted orange line on the outside. I

208
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: think they valued it. It was up for sale for

209
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: just on a million bucks and I'm just like, wow,

210
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: what a what an insane car? I can't see. I mean,

211
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: to me, that's you wouldn't see an old person driving

212
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: that sort of car. I mean that would be that

213
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: would be your wrapper or whoever. But yeah, very cool,

214
00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 1: I like Paul from Yeah, but yeah, hey we should

215
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: talk before we talk. I twenty n we should talk

216
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 1: a quick bit of car news actually before you before

217
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: we proceed. Is there anything really interesting that you've seen

218
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: over there apart from homeless people.

219
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I've just seen so much random stuff

220
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 2: over here. So I'm driving at the moment outside of

221
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: the Bentley stuff. The update at F one fifty. Yeah,

222
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,959
Speaker 2: and god, this thing is just a technological masterpiece. And

223
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,079
Speaker 2: head to my instagram if you want to just see

224
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 2: some of the random stuff that it does. But they've

225
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 2: got like a seat that will fold completely flat, so

226
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 2: you can technically sleep in it if you want to.

227
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 2: The gearstick is electric and it moves out of the

228
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 2: way so that you can set up a work bench.

229
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 2: It even has an onboard generator that allows you to

230
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,719
Speaker 2: run seven point two kilo wots of energy out the

231
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 2: back of it. These things are absolutely remarkable. They're not

232
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 2: just a standard work sit anymore.

233
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 1: I saw that, and what I loved about it was

234
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 1: they're doing stuff that you just don't see in workites

235
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: and they've really thought about it. Like the load on

236
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: the of the tray there, Yes, the tech will tell

237
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: you how much you're loading in and same with the

238
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: tail lights.

239
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's got like four LEDs on the tail lights

240
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 2: and as you put more weight in, it just comes

241
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 2: up and tells you when you're at your limit. I

242
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 2: mean it's so cool, and you know, I just think

243
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 2: it's just a really interesting vehicle and you can see

244
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 2: why it's the best selling vehicle in the US, like

245
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 2: it's for a long time running. They've sold like a

246
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 2: million of these a year.

247
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, we used to have one as a family, and

248
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously they've come a long way. But god,

249
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: I hope they really bring the new one out to

250
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: us because it looks sensational.

251
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, And just in terms of other stuff, Yeah,

252
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 2: the driving here is just crazy. The speed people drive

253
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: is just absolutely ridiculous. So it's just interesting to see

254
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,839
Speaker 2: how little enforcement there is when you've got such a

255
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 2: big volume of drivers on the road. It's impossible for

256
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 2: them to enforce really anything. And some of the stuff

257
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 2: they drive on the road as crazy as well. Like

258
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 2: I took a picture of this van that was literally

259
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 2: like a meter and a half two meters off the

260
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 2: ground and I don't even know how you'd get into

261
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 2: this thing, And it's just stuff like that you would

262
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 2: never be allowed to drive on the road in Australia.

263
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty cool, Pretty cool. Hey, some big news, kind

264
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: of some interesting news hitting as this week, which was

265
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: the Porsche ty Can outselling their infamous iconic nine to eleven.

266
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: Which did that surprise you? It surprised me.

267
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it surprised me as well, like I know that

268
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 2: they've sold a lot of Tycons, especially in Australia. In

269
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 2: Australia it was the third best selling EV in the

270
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 2: country and that was behind the Tesla Model three and

271
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 2: the MGSS. Here in La, you see so many Tycons,

272
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 2: and a lot of them are the turbo Wes just

273
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 2: literally the most money you can spend on one. But globally,

274
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 2: Porsche sold just under forty thousand nine to eleven's the ty

275
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 2: Can out sold it at forty two, just under forty

276
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 2: two thousand Tycans in total. So that's a big bit

277
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 2: of news for Porsche because it's it's just signaling change.

278
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 2: We know the new mccahn will be full electric, and

279
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 2: down the track we'll see Boxer and Canan go electric

280
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 2: as well. Obviously, McCann and Cayenne are still the best

281
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 2: selling Porsche models because they're SUVs. But when Porsche does

282
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 2: an electric suv, I reckon this is going to blow

283
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 2: stuff like a Tesla model way out of the water. Yes,

284
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 2: it will be more expensive, but it means that you

285
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 2: can have a Porsche brand a vehicle that is that

286
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 2: is EV powered.

287
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: You know, when the McCann and the kN entered the scene,

288
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: I remember there was such an uproar, but in hindsight

289
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: they were the vehicles that essentially saved Porsche. This is

290
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: really going to change the game once again. This is

291
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 1: an important car for them and I think it's going

292
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: to take them to new places. I mean, and we're

293
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: looking at early days for this car really too, and

294
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: only big things can come from now, you know what

295
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: I mean.

296
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, one hundred percent. I'm excited to see what it

297
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 2: brings because the Tykon was good, fun to drive, and

298
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 2: I think that if they can translate that to McCann

299
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 2: as well, that it would be cool. The one thing

300
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 2: that Bentley's working on is by twenty twenty five they

301
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 2: will have their first EV out and that EV will

302
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 2: sit on a brand new platform that I suspect the

303
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 2: ty Can will eventually go to. So car companies are

304
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 2: now building EV only platforms and I think once that

305
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 2: starts happening, and they're not sort of hybrid platforms with

306
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 2: internal combustion cars. Once that starts happening, we'll see we'll

307
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 2: see a real diversification of the cars you can buy

308
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 2: and how good they are. I think that they will

309
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 2: simply go to the next level when these guys really

310
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 2: get stuck into building EV specific platforms.

311
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: Do you reckon that Bentley's going to keep a petrol car?

312
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 2: Well, they've said that the V sorry, the W twelve

313
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 2: will exist up until they kill they kill the internal

314
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: combustion engine, which is twenty thirty, but it will see

315
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 2: transitions within all of their models, will see transitions towards

316
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 2: plug in hybrid and then eventually full electric, and then

317
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 2: it'll be the end. I mean that there's just no

318
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 2: space for this in regulations in Europe, and that's where

319
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 2: they sell a lot of these cars. So the second

320
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 2: you cut them off at the feet there, it'll just

321
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 2: be EV only.

322
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: Hey, so should we talk twenty Yeah, let's do it.

323
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 1: Let's do it.

324
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 3: The twenty twenty two Hyundai I twenty in this pocket

325
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 3: rocket only comes in a manual transmission and you can

326
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 3: drive it away for just over thirty six thousand dollars,

327
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 3: preferably fast.

328
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: I got a week with the car that I have

329
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: been looking forward to for a while. I finally got

330
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: in one.

331
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 2: What did you think of I think, Oh, well, no, no,

332
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 2: I'll go crazy. Look beauty.

333
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: Okay, do you know My first impressions of this car

334
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: was sheese, it's been a while since I've driven a

335
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 1: stick shift like it has been a while. It has

336
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: been a hot minute. And yeah, I missed it driving

337
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: in in full on, busy Sydney traffic in this thing.

338
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: Oh geez. It was different, and I gotta be honest,

339
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: I didn't enjoy it that much. But yeah, look I

340
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: took I took it for a proper rip around and

341
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: it probably nearly killed me a few times. But I think,

342
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: all up, this was a small bag of fun. This car.

343
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 1: It's interesting because it's comp is what the Apolo GTI

344
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: the yeah for fes st. I was going to say,

345
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 1: the Toyota G a Yaris.

346
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 2: Can you compare technically it is?

347
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: Yeah? Can you compare a four wheel drive to a

348
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: two wheel drive? I think you definitely can.

349
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, I mean technically it is. It is significantly

350
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 2: more expensive, but I mean they sit within the same

351
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 2: segment in terms of size and comparatively doing what they do,

352
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 2: which is being an entry level hot hatch.

353
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 1: Look, I'm gonna say I loved it. Here's the thing

354
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: you look on the outside. It's brilliant what Yanda are

355
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: doing with their design language. I'm all about that. The folds,

356
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: the creases, the sort of I don't know, origami. Feel

357
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: about it if you like very cool eighteen inch black alloys.

358
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 1: The red brake calipers look very cool. They totally pop,

359
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,639
Speaker 1: very body, very strong. You know, it's weird in photos.

360
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: The exhaust doesn't look that big, but Jesus, when you're

361
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: behind that car, decent. It is decent and it sounds brilliant,

362
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: and it's my favorite part of the car, which we'll

363
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: talk about more in a second. But interior is interior

364
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: is an interesting one because I think at first glance,

365
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: it is very simple. The seats are comfortable, you know,

366
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: they've got enough support. They're plastic y. Parts of it

367
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: I thought were a bit cheap. It looks good, but

368
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 1: it's kind of there's a lot of sort of plasticly

369
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: tough scratch.

370
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 2: The interior looks really cheap, like it's good that they

371
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 2: have the two twelve point five or two point two

372
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 2: inch screens. But yeah, the rest of it is just

373
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 2: this nasty plastic from top to bottom. And you know,

374
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 2: it is thirty two four ninety plus on costs, and

375
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 2: it's like, guys, let's make this not look as as

376
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 2: cheap and cheerful as it actually is.

377
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: The razzle dazzle is definitely in the tech in this car,

378
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 1: like the steering wheel, and yeah, the screens for sure.

379
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: I kind of thought to myself, you know what, I'd

380
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: probably throw an extra couple of grand down if they

381
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: boogied up the interior a little bit, you know, got

382
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: rid of those much the exterior, right, yeah, you know,

383
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: and gave it some real kick. I think the I

384
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 1: thirty End Sedan or the I thirty Sedan End, which

385
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: we'll talk about in a future a the seats are

386
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: probably better in that, you know, with the illuminated n

387
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. I just kind of thought, yeah, look,

388
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: it's a very simple, striped back interior. Great. The wow

389
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: factor is definitely obviously in the tuning and the tech

390
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,959
Speaker 1: and all that sort of stuff. But what were your

391
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,719
Speaker 1: first impressions before we talk driving?

392
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, look, I reviewed it at the same time

393
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 2: as the ConA End. So we had it at the

394
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 2: proving ground and yeah, look, I think that I did

395
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 2: enjoy it because it weighs twelve hundred kilos, it makes

396
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty kiloots of power two seventy five

397
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 2: new meters, so it is it is a hoot in

398
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 2: terms of those figures. It actually uses a similar engine

399
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 2: to the end line version of the I thirty. They

400
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 2: just have different turbo charges setup and different suspension compared

401
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 2: to the normal Eye twenty, it sits lower as well.

402
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 2: We of course don't get the normal Eye twenty in Australia,

403
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 2: so this is the performance version. It's got a limited

404
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 2: slip differential front, which is good news if you're into

405
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 2: your type fun cornering. What I found with this is

406
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 2: that you can drive it very quickly, and it's surprising

407
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,959
Speaker 2: for such a tiny little car how quickly it moves along.

408
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,400
Speaker 2: And it's really comfortable in and around the city too.

409
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 2: With the ConA end it is extremely firm, whereas this

410
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 2: has that good balance. Ultimately, though yeah, I was disappointed

411
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 2: by that interior. I did love the fact with launch

412
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 2: control you can customize the RPM that it launches from,

413
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,719
Speaker 2: and I just went straight to the maximum five thousand

414
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 2: rpm and you literally just dump the clutch and the

415
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 2: thing just does this, and the thing does this enormous burnout.

416
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 2: It's just a really really cool setup, even the fact

417
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 2: that you're getting a little bit more bump on overboost

418
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 2: as well. So look from a handling perspective, it's really nice.

419
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 2: I think you can do with more sound outside. The

420
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,159
Speaker 2: sound inside I think is fake through the speakers, but

421
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 2: the sound outside I think could just be a little louder,

422
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 2: especially when you compare it to things like the I

423
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 2: thirty N and the ConA and have cracks and pops

424
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 2: and all the emotion. For me, it came down to this.

425
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 2: So I found the Ford Fiesta st a little bit

426
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 2: more raw and just exciting to drive. And then you've

427
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 2: got the Polo GTI, which is the perfect daily because

428
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 2: you can get it in a duel clutch automatic as well.

429
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,120
Speaker 2: So this kind of splits the difference between the two,

430
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 2: and I think that it sits in a good little

431
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 2: middle ground. Yeah, I just a lot of people raved

432
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 2: and raved and raved about it. I just I thought

433
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 2: it was fun, but yeah, I just didn't feel that

434
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 2: it had the sort of nice daily feel that the

435
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 2: Polo GTI has. And then equally, it wasn't as sort

436
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 2: of raw and crazy as the Fiesta st was, So

437
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 2: I was kind of in that sort of middle space.

438
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm glad I'm not alone on this one because

439
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: I was pretty similar. I feel like in terms of

440
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: the drive with this six speed manual, it's got a

441
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: lot of grunt to it. It's direct. There is refinement,

442
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: probably not much as say maybe the Toyota gi Arris,

443
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: but or a Polo for instance. You know, it's direct.

444
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 2: It is very direct. That's a good way to put it.

445
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. The problem I have is would I want to

446
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: drive this as a daily No. I think if you're

447
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: gonna buy this car, you need to one live in

448
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: an area where you're able to chew up some road

449
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: every single day, and two, I reckon you're going to

450
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: need to be able to track it. I don't think

451
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: there's any point in owning this car if you if

452
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: you're not gonna bother tracking it. Because it's got amazing tech,

453
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: it's got it's got like tracks set in there so

454
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 1: you can obviously set times and you know, do all

455
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: sorts of things. There is no point in owning this car.

456
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: If you're not going to have fun with it, and

457
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: there is no point if you are going to be

458
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: sitting in bumper to bumper traffic every day, you won't

459
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: enjoy it. It would be uncomfortable. I don't know. I

460
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: kind of like to have a coffee on the way

461
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: to work and if you're stuck between first and second

462
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 1: for thirty forty minutes, it's just a pain in the ass.

463
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, one hundred percent. I think that's the that's the

464
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 2: point of difference here. But it's just not quite the

465
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 2: daily and I think if it's a weekend car for

466
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 2: you and you're really sort of going to enjoy track

467
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 2: driving as well, fair enough. But if you're not, I

468
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,120
Speaker 2: just I think there are better options out there. So

469
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 2: it did get a lot of rave reviews, and certainly

470
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 2: on the track it's good fun. But yeah, if you're

471
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 2: going to be doing it daily and track driving, I

472
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 2: think it is just worth perhaps looking at other options

473
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 2: as well.
