Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, you pair of absolute concert grade flautists. Seeing this video appear on the YT is most welcome, most welcome indeed.
I realise this is a common theme in your comments, siiting poolside on hollibobs (yeah, i said it, sorry), stifling my snorts and guffsws as you pair of flutes go on about jingle horses and such. What a joy. Thanks guys 😁
FYI, "Jingle bells" song, is actually about a couple having a "good jolly time" together, after he takes her on a horse ride. Listen to the lyrics carefully and disconnected from the Christmas theme that was given to it, and you'll figure it out. Enjoy the holidays from now on.
My Aunt has owned a beetle V5 from new. Maintained money no object and some subtle mods to keep it relevent. It has a custom exhaust that sounds AMAZING! Not too loud, but it sounds better than any beetle should. 😅
The Beetle conversation was interesting, as a VW enthoooziast of that era who owned a couple different MkIV Golfs, I always really liked them and got comfortable working on them...they're not so bad to wrench on with a few special tools, a lot of their parts aren't expensive either. And VWs from ~03 to 2010 or so actually got quite reliable, despite their spotty reputation. A Beetle of that vintage actually seems a really solid buy for someone who just...needs a car.
EU has recently changed the law over lighting to allow lit up badging. That'll include UK market too. I've already seen a few VWs with lit badging on the front and rear.
Quick question guys, are you speccing the Renault 5 with the coffee machine or the full size table football in the Renault accessories shop? Or at you going for a surfboard or skis? Also some pub-spec arcade machines in the sale 😮
The jingle horse being the literal translation of reindeer (in our heads at least) reminds me that the Chinese translation of the penguin is supposedly “business goose”. Sadly debunked apparently but I wish it were true.
Can someone please explain to me what the point is in cars like the iX2, Renault Arkana, Citroen C4X etc. The ghastly old BMW X6 that seemed so pointless at the time seems to have spawned this weird segment of giant, fastback-ish, semi offroad, chunky coupe things, and I just cannot work out what they're meant to be for. They can't do a single thing better than a conventional hatch or SUV surely?
Friend of mine has just bought an ID5 (?? the Passat sized one) .. and that has an illuminated rear badge ... looks awful because its not RED ... its Pink !!! ... not for me ....
Feel a little bit sorry for the staff at bee-enterlay, they sound like good folk from what richard says. It seems that they make generally lovely cars that are largely purchased buy footballers and similar oxygen thieves.....shame.
Happy New Year, you flutemasters!

He's been on the podcast before but it's been a few years since we've heard about the cash wasting enthusiast Lewis Martin.

Sweet Sweet guys
"... a jingle horse is a special horse that is used to round up all of the other horses that were left to graze."

Oh man, now I would love to hear these guys talking about Allo Allo...

Lads, it's called a Conversation Pit!
Is it??
@TheLateBrakeShow No lying. Your image searches will take you down a wonderfully kitsch path.
YES! I wanted to shout it the whole time!
Bad Decision Works is making a highly spicy Tjorven atm. Perhaps DAF was used because the CVT was good for post work?

Yeah the face lifted Golf has it I believe, separate cruise control sensor thingy.
Guys! Guys! Holy Jingle Horses!!!!!
I have just realised that as the podcast plays, the picture is getting smaller and smaller.
By Jove!

Any Reindeer will now always be referred to by myself as a "Jingle Horse"
Maybe the law-maker for illuminated badges has a psychological aversion to Wolseleys.🤔

Has the G60 met the same fate as the VR6 ?

I'd give Gladiator 2 a wide berth, unless you want a good laugh at its ridiculousness. We're talking sharks in the Colusium!

I think that RS4 is BR15TDL 🤓
It is. I just checked 🤓. In 2023 it failed MOT because of a lack of registration plate conformity (!).
G'day! 🥳

Should footballers drive old Fiesta Zetecs then?
