Added 2023-05-14 17:00:05 +0000 UTCJonny has a great idea for Jim Ratcliffe and Richard’s having trouble with his trousers. Also in this episode, lost wheeltrims, why cloth is better than leather, getting spare keys made, filler flap bung update, barn find clothing dilemma, the lazy Repair Shop and insensitive Car SOS, Jonny’s controversial new TV show, the problem with Oasis’s Be Here Now sleeve, Liam Gallagher is a Mancunian penguin, a keytar on the roof of a mk1 MR2, DJ Khalid at the Miami GP, handdryer solutions, Bryan Adams’s Land Rover again, arguing with the idea of guilty pleasures, and King Charles’s softly sprung carriage.

It needs to be one of the tracks where Liam has to pronounce words containing the syllable 'Sh' which he drawls out to ssssscchiiiii eg "spend your days in the sun ssssschiiiiinnne" or "is it worth the aggrivasssssschhhhuuuunnnn" or finally from 'Hello' the line "Wipe the sccchiiiittttt from your scchhhhoooooze"

2023-05-16 16:38:48 +0000 UTCThat did happen once with a Reliant Robin (I think) the undercarriage was just too far gone. Usually they state that changing the chassis means it is no longer "the owner's car" hence why they try to avoid it at all costs...

2023-05-16 13:42:07 +0000 UTCI sometimes wonder with Car SOS whether it would just be cheaper just to go and buy another car considering the state some of them are in. Still not seen a jet towel but somewhere in your emails is a photo of an ‘Airdri Quarto’ hand dryer. I wondered if someone in the naming department at Airdri was a fan of a certain 80s rally car…

2023-05-15 15:49:23 +0000 UTCTremendous episode boys, paedo car death challenge, I'd watch it. Though not death too good for them... Oasis in a sentence, nailed it Mr Porter.... Best pod to date!

2023-05-15 15:43:20 +0000 UTCSpeaking of trim levels, it always amuses me on those daytime TV competitions where they give away a car and the voiceover always highlights unremarkable features. “You could win this brand new Mercedes A Class worth over £40,000! It comes with all the mod cons, including metallic paint AND alloy wheels!” It’s like whoever wrote the script for it hasn’t seen a car since the late 90s and doesn’t realise those things are essentially standard now

2023-05-15 10:05:38 +0000 UTCI am a lawyer and happy to tell you that the offence of committing a disgraced entertainer to almost-certain death would be the same as if it were, for example, a neonatal intensive care nurse being given the same treatment. You may get a lesser sentence for the paedo, of course, but you’d still be convicted.

2023-05-15 09:10:57 +0000 UTCI think Jonny's spiteful Car SOS should take the prized cars but instead of scrapping them, save them all up to the end and then have a banger race spin off show meeting featuring the disgraced TV entertainers. The bangers are really badly prepped with the sills deliberately weakened, no seatbelts or safety cages and the petrol tank moved to a really vulnerable position. Then a 12 lap race and let them battle it out. The surviving winner is then allowed to parade around the track in the open back lap car, whilst the distraught Car SOS families who've seen a beloved family car get totalled, fire live rifles at the winner.

2023-05-15 07:56:06 +0000 UTCMay I suggest a new spin on "it's a knockout" Disgraced Celebrities spar with heavyweight boxers..... Or in the case of both of your trousers, "It's a Cockout"

2023-05-15 07:15:05 +0000 UTCI finally saw, and used, my first ever Jet Towel last Monday. I was thrilled! It also had the bag attachment discussed in this episode. This exciting find was at Calke Abbey, Derbyshire.

2023-05-15 06:07:59 +0000 UTCYou mentioned Knebworth just as I was driving South on the A1 past Knebworth. Not interesting, but true.

2023-05-15 02:01:50 +0000 UTCThe release date of Be Here Now is forever etched in my mind, it was the release day for my GCSE results and they were a mixed bag just like Be Here Now. As a young Oasis fan, I rushed out to buy what was a fairly shit album. To think tracks like Do You Wanna be a Spaceman, Rocking Chair and Half The World Away were relegated to B-sides when tracks like "All Around The World" were released as singles.
