Patreon exclusive - podcast 189 ON VIDEO
Added 2023-12-10 18:09:03 +0000 UTCHello gang. No show notes this week but instead we have a rare treat, only for Patrons. The lovely people at Stellantis filmed us on stage during our live show on Thursday night and you can watch it here.
This isn't just the podcast as you'll hear it on the audio-only version because the video comes with our walk-on and a load of rambling audience chat before we get on with the actual show. So even if you weren't there, you'll get a sense of what it was like. A bit shambolic is the most obvious answer. Anyway, hope you enjoy it.

Our Abarth 595 had the number plate CIAO . What’s that worth ?

2023-12-24 00:43:59 +0000 UTCHi chaps, one of my favourite ever numberplate spots was YAR1S on a very ratty green first generation diesel Yaris. Admittedly it would be even weirder on a non-Yaris, but you'd think Toyota would put it on a press car or something...

2023-12-15 23:55:05 +0000 UTCI assume going to be spammed by aussies about this... NSW 1 plate for sale, at 8 million so far... https://www.lloydsonline.com.au/LotDetails.aspx?smode=0&aid=47033&lid=4617672&fbclid=IwAR0K-y9-VZBKiMkOMEK_-7G3hnHxoRi5bLyCLxqnPqdaFKdL8D2Rxp6A3xc

2023-12-14 04:32:59 +0000 UTCI think the numberplate 1 F falls into the discussed category….

2023-12-13 22:47:38 +0000 UTCI have no idea about the shape. Mind you this is the country where everyone has their own mattress (twin, queen or king sized mattresses are "special order" and when you move from one rented apartment to the next you have to bring the kitchen with you because it is "personal" ?!?!??!

2023-12-12 10:50:29 +0000 UTCthose chocolate makers play it fast and loose with shapes. I mean if we are to believe toblerone the alps are all one height and in a row.

2023-12-12 10:44:24 +0000 UTCWhy would a square be practical? Maybe they have done some study to find the optimal shape of a chocolate bar

2023-12-12 08:49:51 +0000 UTCThis expensive numberplate thing is completely alien to me as, over here, a personalized plate costs a one-time fee of $100, then $40 annually. The only trick is that you have to come up with a unique plate that someone else hasn't already nicked, and also you have to be quite clever if you want to be rude. There is an orange F-Type near me - the owner previously had an orange Mitsubishi Eclipse - that has the personalized plate: PLATE. Which, good for them. There is also a trend where people get a vanity plate of the car they are driving - e.g. G63 AMG - and frankly, those people should be issued immediate driving bans. Regarding Richard's celebrity name car mashup game, one S&S perennial pops to mind, even if the execution is awful. I know she has an RX-8, but: Saudi.

2023-12-12 02:03:31 +0000 UTCBack in the early 2000s, I regularly saw a Peugeot 106 in Coventry with the numberplate (if I remember right), 9N.

2023-12-11 19:21:51 +0000 UTCI remember in, maybe, the late 80s/ early 90s often seeing "H1" on a burgandy Merc 190 (if I remember correctly) and then laterly on a shabby white Corolla and I was always impressed by the inverse plate-to-car value ratio.

2023-12-11 11:42:54 +0000 UTCRitter Sport is indeed German and is actually made not far from where I live. Their slogan for years was "Square. Practical. Good" (Quadratisch. Praktisch. Gut) A.hhh... those catchy German marketing slogans... An acquaintance of my mother-in-laws called his wife that after she had had their first child and she was complaining about losing her figure.... I think they got back together a few years later....

2023-12-11 10:34:33 +0000 UTCOn the subject of Euro-spec chocolate, one of my colleagues is Romanian and quite often plies me for favours with bars of Rom, which is a chocolate bar about the size of a Club with a rum filling.
