Просмотров 2512 месяца назад
We drive the Combe Laval (note the spelling mistake in the thumbnail lol) in our £900 Audi TT Roadster Convertible Frequently recognized as the most magnificent road in the French Alps, this road through Combe Laval was constructed between 1861 and 1898 and originally served for the transportation of timber from the Forêt de Lente to St-Jean-en-Royans. It’s one of the most famous French balcony...

Our Volvo 345 Fails to Proceed!!!
Really nice cars and France with signs with anything you have some or you don't and french car owners are eclectic and great to see them driving in charente in sept when they do a car show and pedal car, and car collection I was lucky to stay and a wine growers gite where his da had a wicked car, motorbike and pedal car collection and metal car and bar signs in a little place called oint
Great video, as always! 😉 McDonald’s in 🇫🇷 is so different to the 🇺🇸 version! 🤣 Siôn is correct: the back immediately struck me as weird and not cute. 👎 Great retro Fiat jacket, Siôn! 👍
It’s a lovely design, but I think the Mobilize Duo is a much better car type thing. If you want an actual car, the Leapmotor T03 and Dacia Spring are cheaper.
As we say in the Video... The MG ZS EV is cheaper
The rear of the Microlino. Donald Duck?
Great video. Cant wait to see this thing in some daily natural trips/usage cases. Shame we dont have these in Australia.
Great video. These are so much cooler than the Ami. Really funky. I think you're right Sion, looks very like a Xantia stalk on there
Agreed... but SAV or ASS - after sales - are a ... Non-Existent
Lovely.
Le Monobrow! *Wiggles eyebrows* Wouldn't it be so much better if they made a version with doors, pushed the driving position back to give some crumple space and a front boot. Oh, and didn't have headlamps at exactly the right height to blind people. Other than that - yeah! Lovely little tour of a wintery northern France.
I adore these things.
Now, I have liked these since I first saw them
My wife just said the wheels remind her of one of those Dogs backside towel holders and I can't unsee that!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the Microlino is really pitched as a second car for a reasonably affluent household to 'pop into town' and all that. If it were a serious attempt at affordable micromobility then it would cost £10-15,000 and they'd allow it to feel horrible inside for affordability's sake. They also clearly leaned into the '50s European 'Dolce Vita' romanticism if it's got a love seat instead of two proper chairs!
I could quite easily imagine this being something you’d see hoisted from a luxury yacht, so the owners have something to drive around Monte Carlo. Hopefully the next leg of its journey is successful and perhaps maybe you should have a McCafé sponsorship.
To be nice and polite, I'm not yet sure about that Microline in terms of value for money, but that retro FIAT jacket is great!
Siôn loves that jacket
Am still waiting on my parts... and a recall was issued prior to the delivery...and yet not fixed. Next, the date of construction/built of my vehicle, a Pioneer edition, it was actually based on parts more than 3 years old!!! It is insane. I could have built this car in my garage!
Brilliant video! Love it 😊
We are quite proud of our little video on this as it was very on the fly as we were actually working
@ so you should be. Can’t wait to see Siôns driving impressions
Plugged into a 13A socket - maybe electronics realised that 16A wasn’t available - do they have 16A outlets sur la continent ?
16amp would be a heating circuit
@@alsodriven Here, yes, but on the continent ? Dunno !! Just seemed strange that there would be a 16A selection on a regular plug. 🤷♂!
@Mancozeb100 as we said... Why does it have to be so complicated
@@alsodriven 😆😂
We have McCafé in Canada, and I am pretty sure it's in the US as well at some locations.
Yeah but you dont get macaroons and croissants
Mini donuts, muffins, and cookies.
@VincentLander so no tiramisu then? Call that a McCafe???
😹
Surprisingly big boot - I think if they did an electric Messerschmidt KR200 that'd be my first EV!
@@ProjektAgnetha they do... It's made in Spain
@@alsodriven Oh no!! 😅
Key looks just like the one off my 20 year old Audi!
Yeah - it’s standard old skool VW/Skoda/Seat and Audi ! My B5 Passat had that style fob too.
I do like a Vel Satis
@@PsychicSquirrel they are gloriously french 🥖
For a low volume manufacturer it looks pretty nice. Great video, boys ❤
Why thank you. You obviously pay for the bespoke cuteness and for that it's worth it
New subscriber - great video of this event
Looking forward to it. Just taking a moment though to recognise and appreciate the production on this teaser! The visuals synced to the music and the cut away. V cool!
i have three diesels and a gasoline, i bought one just like this from an 86 year old man for 700€ it was mint ,but as i told some people i know i was ofered two turbo diesels both(and all green) 96 and a 1.8 gasoline from 95 in black as i had for a few monthes when released but i had a XM 3.0 V6 and i kept the XM, now i have all of this plus CX´s , DS´s, BXturbo maybe GTI in dark graphite and in leather inside ,black also a visa with extra power as it a rallye car in reality with larger side plastic panels but where i live no problem all transit control are my friends and smoke my weed indoors white widows, lot´s of electricity not even with the panels and i saw i spent it all in hot water to clean my 96 cars not from the year 96 but number of cars, and also have a very ancient 2CV ,two from the 80´s a nazaré Dyane, three diferent Amis, GS car and van but the second van is the last with a modern dash and better seats, also a mehari for the beach a litle broken in orange glass fiber but plastiqui, also the dupond & Dupond from tintin, car . A black tracion avant and a bordeux less years and perfect inside out ,was in 2007 my daily driver, theses arem my citroen´s, the Xantia is a perfect car and as i have many i climbed a mountain with it using only three wheels and came down with corners and never toutched the supposed to be a road
Thank you for another great video
Ahh..... a wheelie bin you can drive for £20000 🙄👍🇮🇪
It's not plastic
I want that portable, pop-out car radio now! Funny how that’s come back into style with pop out removable Bluetooth speakers in things such as a the Rivian. Italians got there first.
Or the Ami and Topolino!
3:25 "It's basically a brand new metro"... Even brand new metros were rubbish! 😉
But that's why we love em!
Great to see the Fiats again , Jim . Lancia Beta was fab too. Wish I was there.
The Lancias' were the cars of the show for me
Looks like a great time but don't miss doing the stand with my Celica Convertible
It's hard work being there for 4 days, that's for sure!
@@alsodriven and best part is 4pm on sun and all the horns go off
I watch your channel but being in Northern Ireland makes the NEC expensive. Being a squirrel doesn't help either.
True
Good old diesel, I owned a 106 1.5 diesel around 10 years ago now it was amazing on fuel went forever
Nice one guys.
Thanks! 😃
A late, estate, XJ eight just sounds scrumptious in Jim's Ulster accent
😂
One of your 4 viewers here 😁👍🇮🇪
They get around lol
Sions catty remark about everything being Pininfarina really got me! And of course I'd agree with him saying the 306 is prettier ❤
You can't beat the 306 Cab
Some people who watch your channel are in a very recently saddened country across the pond. ❤️😞
The best man won 🤐👍🇮🇪
You get the political leadership you deserve 😢 .
A Italian 90 tipo on a k which is 1992 to 1993 is it not how strange I didn’t like the five door metro neither greetings from Scotland 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hello!
The final iteration of the 127 had great success as the FURA in Spain ( though I am sure SEAT would claim it wasn't the same car lol ) - one of those with the Spanish market 5 door body and the 1100 cc engine would be such an eye catcher
The Spanish always loved making 5 doors from Fiats!
The Limpredi engine 😂 Isn't that a spec below the SemiRedi version? I'll get me coat.....
I know!!!! 😂
Beautiful stuff, thanks for showing it to us ❤
Our pleasure 😊
Wonderful. Are you there all weekend?
No, was just a one day event for us this year
Great review . Very enjoyable. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
It was great to see you both!
Was lovely to catch you and see the Focus!
Is so cute!
Thank you! (We think the same❤️)
Id start with timing, if thats okay, get the Catalytic converter off and see if it runs properly
It was the timing so good guess!
Great to see the car excelling at what it was designed for Mpg 👍, anyone remember the AX diesel advert where the American guy drives it to Scotland to get Salmon and then back on one tank
Might try and recreate that one day !!!
ruclips.net/video/se2IW9g1yTU/видео.htmlsi=MrYsEdoPslmOvHpw
Impressive, my first car was a 106 1.5d I never actually calculated the mpg but I remember it being better than the 125cc 2stroke scooter I had before it. Must have been similar to this 1.4, Amazing.
Def waiting on some cold weather and hopefully hard starts in this 😍😍🙏🏻
Just brought a second hand Citroen DS3 1.6 turbo diesel.Zero tax ,and an average of about 68mpg..
