I was like 1920 21 Yeah She was made in the back seat of a 1990 car. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so She'll pop up when she's a cus she's conceived it So I'll go through the 90s cus it's like usually when you buy a car They'd appreciate with their brand new and then they find a flat spot with about 20 years old and then all of a sudden I remember them and they just fucking start so linkers they start to take off so that we're common or swap what 1990 so we're gonna go through the See after the real finish the 78 so the like the real walkage offer is 20 yeah, no, and now it's like 20 so so it's a book based on goals Chapman It's a English book, but I don't pick up the cars that relate to us So basically there's a lot of like when I went through it There's a lot of iconic cars from the 90s and cars that started so it starts off in the late 80s the Land Rover discovery What a flat so we can see it the discovery that's an awful freaking car It was a shit car shit turning circles shit car But that design that square like made out of Lego that square design much box when they brought the new the new current Discovery when it went rounded people stopped wanted really yeah, because I want the square box the square box is worth more I hate those cars. I know but you know what I'm getting at and they're about to drop the discovery next early 80s I call car you love car dick to your next five That's started 89 with the pop-up lights my most general made beautiful car light had the NC You feel like you're going far so you look down the speed are you doing 60? Yeah, the only bad thing about them made the fees are targets are still the most animals Yeah, and that's a nice wheels and that's a limited edition of British racing green It's still an iconic car to date if you forgot your own no so be and see so I'm you sir I'm still looking for the end sees the biggest one that will fit me the new ones are too small So you brought for you daughter.

Yeah, I know that she's got a beetle now. So what about the Calibra Calibra? Yes Sorry, is that an Australian book or a it's an English but I mean but the Calibra came to Australia was the most They were dynamic can it's time and but was like 60 grand back in the late in the early 90s. We had that four by four turbo They'll slow shit.

They win tunnel test that yeah, but they look fucking hard going Because the V or walk ashore was the first car to be wind-tune Commodore to be wind tunnel test tested But when they're gonna race it that it changes the design because you know the feel had that that glass at the back Yeah, when they put the kit that that little kid it covered the glass and had to expose it for the limited run Like it was based on production car that included the glass as Zero dynamic, but and then the iconic three series They were something popped up on The other day what with the with a race where one of those in freeze were chasing broke in the vk Yeah, that was a run. Yeah in the small tracks. Yeah, that's that get even alive, but in the small track like they they steered They handled their a weapon on the right track if you had a lot of petera Terago Tera so everybody in the 80s you had that square was based on a van yeah, but then in the 90s that it was a massive It was like the egg that was a big he's the most ever done in a car. That's what it was like a van by an egg No, it was like really took off and they had a mid engine the engine was like that.

Yeah, it was like underneath the seat Whatever that there. Yeah, I'm wrong. They're under the seat like a van. You know, they're not who needs seat warmers Well, that's right.

So so I remember my dad was gonna buy to ride at the 80s when he was there grandparents Clarity did fucking buy it. That's what that's what happened. So we just got only two cars, so So you got the chicken chicken chicken That's um Just we stop and then the 90s had the golf the mark three That's when it started and the mark and the mark for the mark for wasn't that great But the are the famous thing with the mark for was the R32 that came out of limited numbers. That's all right.

Yeah Yeah, that's the R32 they dropped the V6 engine in it. I think they brought a handful of Australia their numbers good So um, they're not bad in a Ford 1 day No, that was you in Australia. Yeah, so that came out And then we've got some super cars So remember the Jaguar XJ 220 They dropped in very and then they went beyond they promised them of the 12. Yeah, instead they gave them a one-day Oh, I mentioned a six-cylinder turbo They work with many now, but they plotted it and the 220 is that how much thing any of them come out with before?

No, they'll mean to people have deposits and they came out with six of them to turbo engines and the 220 is meant to say how fast I was gonna go top speed of 120 miles It didn't get to 21 I had the ed on Amazon. It looked the fast fast part. It got to 230 miles per hour So really so should we call next day two one three six and a But next to it and even to date is a McLaren F1 That was the central seat with the two seats on either side Centrally what centrally seated yeah, but was it ever allowed to be? I don't think so and a BMW v12 and the engine baby's got played it because it was the best material that good But the heat and mate that was untouchable and if you write one off mr.

Bean has got one and he wrote he's off They repaired it because it was so much. Yeah, but have you ever seen one here in Australia? No, I think so okay You just said that they never came out here. I don't think but either did the gaddies and we've seen one remember I saw an eB 110 we seen it in the yard in that yard.

We're gonna have to the window. Oh, yeah That's the Veyron. Yeah, they're here. They're here.

They're private imports the vira Yeah, but the Veyron is not a 90s carpet. That's up your Gaddy EB 110 I saw one of them in Australia the factory would bankrupt after two three years They built it in the early 90s. There was a recession so but then you're going with money now It's X they were not worth nothing. Oh, no, we're 40 grand and then all of a sudden they've these are boosted But you know it's still worth nothing the SL that's next up that came out of the There was an iconic shape.

That's why the SL actually meant something I remember that is so if you rolled it the windscreen would pop up roll bar though. Yes, that's right But if that went off is it was a part like 10 grand to put back down I don't know so that was a 90s car and then you had the three five five Ferrari And then you had the three five five five that's that made Ferrari, okay? It's the start of a every day for our Yeah, did you have a three five five five? That's right.

Yeah, that's right. That's right and I treated like any other car. What was it like to do love it? Hey, I'll everyone get the boring it Everyone put the boring the car.

I wanted to take my wife out in at once. Yeah, stay at the observatory hotel in town And the nutrition yeah was supposed to have it that weekend and he got angry with me, but your car yeah, but every weekend someone had it Was a trouble free motoring was alright or was it killed a car? Yeah, but I think I drive it to kill it You have to that's how they go that's that they that's a my favorite So there's a couple of Ferraris in the 90s and that's a V12 for a little that's a five 50s No, four five six is a four five fifty because that was the four five six was the four door. It's a four seater Of course tell that is that no two see that what's a big off front engine?

So yeah, so it's a four five six. Yeah, and that's the and that's the 50 you can't reach to them here, but there's something where the F40 was an 80s F50 They were slowly pick up and now they're untouchable and they remember the voxel car to the lotus that was like a quick car It was based on the one we're here. Nothing. It's like a ve that was based on the VN So the VN commortals boat based on the Independent suspension of that remember when Brockie went haywire and put independent rear in his last couple of deals.

Yeah, that's an iconic car And now we're getting to some limousines you like them the Lexus LS 400 came out I didn't mind that it's a bit squirry, but it wasn't bad. I know which car you like it Yeah, I know but before I get to that what the Lexus did to Merck and BMW is what the other 60 the Ferrari when the NSX came out The japs are in their glory days in the 90s and the Lexus LS 400 was a big limo the VA. It was silent It was smooth. There was no panel gaps It was built to last and then you had that big tank of an SL.

Yeah, that was massive That was it was to be my dad had one of those that had double glaze ring. Yeah, the green one. It was double glaze We do so I took away with me once I took it to Well, I'm past will about once we drove to the northern F1 in that we counted will board coming back 108 buttons on the dashboard we counted every button well to and we found the button the boys the back was sleeping But if you push the button the head is for The most and we kept get knocking them over and then the 90s was also some Americana Dodge Viper and the prowler with a power That was meant to be only came out of 600 as well. They did really go They did fuck all so there's some bucket of piss then we go to Sweden and this was SARS last or R With the 900 the 9000 that work I seem to like the start to late though like the last couple because I got how do they say it said have that square is shit They saw like we're a bit round they could go round eat a couple of weird colors and even that front end.

It's pretty roundy The convertible in a yellow a did that did that will you a he-she if you bought that from the 90s? People question your sexuality if you have a soft convertible a different color The audience is going to use a vote. Yeah, I turned up in that would you be thinking? So you don't like you've got to think of something else if you have a muscle car now But that's pink and white dream which was Special order my car is worth a shitload if there was the 60s where it comes like that the plumb them Even they are gonna be hot.

Yeah, see the plumb and the pinks and the purples Yeah, they are every person who collects those cut once because it was probably only one or two ever made it and unique Yeah, you type in a yellow convertible sub Even if I said I was a dentist it's still a doctor. It's still yeah. Yeah, see you later And then you also Volvo Volvo was getting rid of their square 80s in the night They started going to be roundy so cut like if you brush you won't cut yourself on it Well, apparently the new Volvo's won't hit a Volvo They're programmed to avoid each other. Yeah, I believe a 100% Wait another Volvo if you haven't had a no volvos in you What's that one?

This is the first C class that came out in 1993 and I was a C We were there the C36. Yeah, that's why so the C36 was brought up one of them No, we never got a C one of them to pile something at one someone had my C36 AMG Then they put the V8 made a C43 so that was the first because in the age of the one 90 So you see I had s class of e class and then in the 90s I had the 180 e from BMW yeah, because the three series and they brought that was the first official C class and even now when you look It's a clean car. Yeah, I like my beautiful car. It was before the roundy light one It's that rectangular classic the seas in the 90s.

They were kicking some goals and and you know what I don't mind really a station wagon Mercedes. Yeah, look it's beautiful and then C63 wagons to the top brother Shamed one the other day and some option wasn't I don't know but it just looks hot well They had three's got their state down so they bring them out now we're hitting some Japanese cars If I say Subaru 90 or you think about his all-wheel drive The RX fire seat turbo always 40 grand jumping the pipes going to swimming bottoming up doing wrecking all the bottom You're a member and well, obviously gonna ram rates For their time they were untouchable. Yeah, and even though Liberty Security isn't here because I know maybe that's Subaru remember they had the release to read the magazines a Liberty RS was quicker than a V8 a VN group Yeah, like I used to boast the naughty one hundred time, but Subaru really keep goals in the noise That's the arena those pieces And then you had Jaguar in the 90s XJ those this is pick forward for don't Jagger in the 90s So you have the XJ and that was the first aluminium body XJ they look old but they're quite modern and not bad in its time But fucking nothing about the JG it's boring you have a man. I don't want to and then you got the mark here We go another Man Work on those here.

This is a mark to the audience on a piece of shit box It's a mark to range over a range over a 20 years from the 70s to the 90s. They finally updated it and they really fuck it's a shitbox It's got nothing but problems We bought one of the click that makes somebody on it, but got it needs some work. It needed a lot of work Let me get into some 90s sports cars and some oh no, it's not Second from it so ever records the rap the rap came out in 1994. I reckon the ravels the first compact SUV.

It's bullshit Hey, what was the guitar? Oh, yeah, but rap for made it sporty and fun. Yeah, okay, it's good Scoop. I look at that.

I think I got the guitar up. Yeah, but it made it sporty, but that was the first round four No, you want it? No. No, it's not born.

It's not born so what's that one? I've got five shoes iconic That's not a trouble car and they want some shit boxes again. Yeah, they will they will you came out of the day with dog? I had my name did you?

Oh, really? Yeah, did it work? Yeah, it was a good car. These things were a piece of shit in the 90s I think the torch train English gave it to me because I'm pretty serious.

That was the first time he hugged me and kissed me So the so the day we they were built this is a 90s car But that was a 70s cadet which was a Gemini in Europe So that's a 20 year old design that they would like to like say in Europe the Gemini that we had yeah was called the Opal cadet in Europe What's that overseas? Yeah, didn't we design it? No, I really and they usually sold it to me I'm gonna tell me the other the only cars we designed was Holden which is based on the you know Which is based on the Amiga in Europe anyway, what about the Commodore H and all that? No, the VB was called the Opal Record Yeah, but hang on the the EH EJ no a whole Australian Kingswood Australia Armoured all was based on Opal what about HZ and all that that was out.

So I was Australian then when we went to VN No VB Commodore is a direct report of the Opal Record. Oh really? It's the same car VB. So that's the 80s.

That's the 80s Did we update it from the updated because then we got stretched for the added we got plastic bars the VN was based on that load as Carlton So we started a platform from them and then we modified it modified extended it made it know that I thought we were the smarties and cricket Spare the GM very smart. Yes. We only see us Australians only want to spend money on developing a car once Well, the VE was modified but the V was the first sort of world but their own plot still I was a lot of Opal and voxel parts underneath but the VE was a truly Australian car because the Ponteo Remember isn't the Ponte over to the GDO? Yeah, the Australian Monaro that went to America.

Yeah, but we sold it then Yeah, yeah, you know that a lot better built here. Yeah, but they had strict rules to go over there tank in the back behind Yeah, like all these modifications. They look they look like with the Ford Capri we sold them a data 11 in the ladies But when it came to General Motors exporting the Commodore in the Monaro They let the first year get built here I know the bugs and then said it's yeah Well, when they said us cars right there fight and we have to fix them When we train when we send cars to them they got all the sudden rules and they're fully loaded too. They had all the all the extras in there So Yeah, so the Commodore is not really an Australian company the vector You know what I like about this car.

It's another yeah, hold it. Yeah, hold it. Again. That's an opal in Europe or a voxel The way the mirrors just came out.

I thought that was amazing even though And then you know a lot of the luxury cars go down. So you had the introduction of the Audi A3 So Audi Mercedes did it. We'll get to the A class So basically you had these European car makers going downgrade one manufacturer would have a more Than if I would hit it So Audi basically the A3 came out and that was based on a golf So you're paying it's that underneath is a golf But you're paying $15,000 more because it's got the four rings from Audi then we get into some sports cars from the M2 Which is based on the 3.5 Yeah 90s or it's not a 90s. Yeah, the book's gonna finish.

No, no, we're gonna finish. You're still not Not a six-wheel get to you I don't think you could seem to see our ex- And then the end of the TV That were like that was made up the mgf the alpha spider. I'm driving with those for three months That would crap and then Mercedes bought out the SLK That's a woman's car but that was the first convertible with a heart top It's a woman's car. No, but the one about the angel is this little K55 Strong ones one And we've been waiting for this car.

Is that a car? That's an alpha. That's a car. It's a car.

It's No, they probably tried to sell it with and they had the Z3 that was a crap car. That was built in America Yeah, it's part of the BMW with the two panels up high. What they call the Z1 with the door slides down. Yeah, the Z1 I was late 80s.

I never cut Australia. Yeah, but the Z3 that was the car that's James why we're in gold and I I think that was a woman's car. You reckon they're so casual. It's gone.

They're by far. Why is a girlfriend? Well, the BMW would be your friends in the Mercedes itself would be vice versa. You'd have to split them up.

You'd have to split them up. Yeah, which one would be Doris car. Or what about the box car? That came in.

That's a girl's car. Man, there's even a girl in the picture. They are. Where are girls cars?

This is when probably the look. I'm just guessing. I'm just guessing but I'm thinking now fuels a problem. What do you mean to fuels a fuel in the 90s?

Yeah, we all got tight. We've become tight-asses for petrol or the The scene the who sells the show. You're making the show up. No, I'm just saying it looks like now looking at this book to me the Arabs, whatever who sell the oil.

Yes, right? Looks like the show. Yeah made a problem now. If you went up or something and that's why we've gone to these little little cars.

What the box the shape? Porsh. It's freaking small. Porsh is about to go bankrupt.

They brought the box there out to save them. Would you buy one of those? A box star. Yeah.

I think I can buy a cave and though. Yeah, but then would you buy one of these ones? This is a zuckey cappuccino. I don't think I could fit it.

You get one and get now. No, can you go again? Yeah, the lotus, at least. I can see it.

They're all small cars. That's right. Now you're understanding I'll do that. I know you're here.

I'd love to find out. What does it say? If petrol, no, because originally when cars come out in America, big cars, big motors, they didn't care for petrol because it was probably worth a couple of cents a litre. And then all of a sudden we moved ahead 20 years later and show or whatever you want to call it.

Mr. Show, Mr. Show, put the prices of oil up and all that. And then Americans went tight answers, smaller motors, you know, it went smaller for fuel economy come up.

They did downsize and they went all plastic too. So it looks like this year was when fuel mattered and the manufacturers went to smaller engines, lighter cars and to women because women started wanting their second car in the family and so like went to them. Well, statistically women have a big saying who buys what car now, but now I think about these cars here, you've already got fricking half a million, you've got two seats, you've got a preammer back seat and all over these cars. Just last half the fucking audience.

So now we're up to downsizing with the Land Rover by another piece of shit. The Freelander came out. I think I've only seen one here. These were so bad that in America they had to change the name to LR4 because the Freelander was so shit that they changed the name of the car to make itself.

So we're heading for late 90s now. And here we go. Oh yes. So the CD's A-Class.

That was my first my first Mercedes overhead. Me too. I had the A190, I had the big block. What did I have?

A190 I think? Yeah, I had the back seat. You could push about and then went up to a booster chair in that. No, I did.

Mine did. Mine did. Mine did. Mine was the later model.

Mine was. I loved it. These were had plastic panels that came click on to clip off. Yes, the car.

Yes, yes. And the tailgate. And it was a sandwich platform. You know, I've said this before on the show.

You know what happened with them. They're doing a test like in front of the media. Yeah, the boost test. Yeah, they decided that's bringing out a show and the thing flipped over.

Yeah, flipped. I've never seen that. That flip cost them. I love them cars.

But they're all easy to park. They were half spots in the city and I could park that. George and Sam, anyway, we're all praying you. And whenever I told them whenever you're going to get a trader, I would buy it.

I'd bought it off them. I took it straight to your brother's garage. We had to go back there. It sat in there for that long, getting everything fixed.

I got everything fixed. There's all that picked it up and went to the city. Bro, went to the city. Got smashed.

It hadn't been detailed yet. Nothing. I was trapped. You got smashed.

I got the car. Why getting this car? It's not driving. I must be that drunk.

Saying in gear, driving, driving, playing the shit, turning off, doing all this. I'm drunk. Right? Anyway, after spending all that money on it, the gearbox.

I don't know. Yeah, it was a fun shift. It was called a bunch of five-speed. Back then to get that fixed was like five grand.

I never had a problem in mind. I had my own. No, no. My mom was auto.

Oh, no. My mom was a fun shift. So it was a fire. The fire speed.

That fire. And had that roof. The leaks. And it leaks if you hit the brakes.

Let's leave for whatever you call it. And then the Audi TTK-Mally 98. That was an iconic warehouse design. Well, we're on 98 now, okay.

What were you? You're born now. I'm two. Are you two?

So 96, what's your name? It's nine months. What month were you born in 96? I guess.

So you're even 95. Look, that picture not show kids in the back. Yeah, the Renault V. So that's what your parents, that's what you were made in the back of that.

Oh, cool. That's what you were made in the back of that. That's still trying to recover from the injury. So the Audi TT, have you driven?

Yes. What do you think of these? It's a girls car. Okay.

It's good. It is. Come on. It is.

It is a girls car. And then the late night is a Ford Focus came out. This put Ford in the map. I brought one of them brand new.

Funny that girls go say that's a girls car. Oh, yeah. But eight. It was for a business to promote it.

You bought a girls car. And it was for a business to promote it. What did it go drive it? What business was it?

Girls did drive it. What was the business? Um, bras. Braz and things.

Nice to it. Shut up. I don't want to say too much there. I'm shady.

They could be children. They could be children. And the last chapter goes into the millennium. So now we're turning it to the year two three hours.

And it just sort of predicted a few of the cars that came in. Just snuck in the Volkswagen Beetle. Where the? That did take off, I.

It did. No, no, no, no. The last one. But the flat roof.

That's the push me pull you. That one looks like it's going backwards and forwards. I think about it. It's set on.

Now mine's the next. But you've got one. It doesn't matter. Yeah, it's beautiful.

The one I've got. This one. There's like a two year wait list in America. That's the bar.

It's a bar of the power. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's your brother bought a convertible. You got to ask about the excuse to sell it.

You were kidding. What do you say? It was my wife doesn't like it. He wasn't married.

No, he bought it for a stock member or something. Oh, I never turned up. I was like, he's selling it now. A couple of color, I never turned up the room.

It's true. It's true. That color is beautiful. No, no, I hate that color.

Oh, but there was a Prowler fan club. Yeah, well, the Prowler. They went crazy to start. Then you had the Echo, the Yaris, whatever you were.

Yeah, they went crazy to out. Then there were some weird cars that came out. X5. Yeah, that started the craze.

That started it. Oh, the other one. It was going up. Honda Jazz.

It's still there. They were downsizing, weren't they? Yes, they. It was getting smelly.

It was more. That's it. And the new mini came out. That wasn't downsizing.

That was big. We bought a new mini. Yeah, but the engine, everything, like money, saving. The new mini.

I remember when we bought it. We went to a fundraiser. So we're sitting on the table with thanks, Joseph. Have been just a lady.

I'll give him a plug. The next time, driving a new mini for my wife. It was our first wedding anniversary. It was a green one with a white top with a white stripe.

It was the first one in the second in Sydney. People would point for six months at this car. Have you ever known? I like.

Girls car. Yeah, you girls car. Like, Jeff and I, like how they do the flag of a roof. Yeah, no.

Or have you even known as the taillights of a flag? Yeah, they've got the British. I like that. You know what I think?

I really do. You know what I think? I found that girly. It's not very bad.

I was trying to think of how the queen's voice. But it wasn't. It was passed away. It was passed away.

It was passed away. We liked that. Maybe we should flag it. Maybe we should flag it.

Let's just do Camilla's voice. But to that mini, it was so popular. People would be pointing at us as we're driving past. And that thing held its value for four, three, four years.

We've really got our money back selling it. Because we thought pregnant. And there's no boot. The brand took up the back seat.

So we had to just conceive in the car. No, no, no. Just a make sure it sheds on those. I still have the scars on my leg if we try to conceive in that.

And we basically sold it and bought a Honda Euro. They're called Euro for the. Went from one bad car to another. So I thought Euro was a beautiful car.

A hell of a family car. A hell of a family car. Four years? Oh really?

Yeah, probably one of the cars you've ever had. I know. Because we really turned the boat around. Back in the day.

So that was the cars that normally sold. What would be the op-pig before you go to the audience? There was some start up big with the S-Class and Lexus. That's a jag with the small motor in it.

The X-J-6-20. That you're big? I would have read the NSX. No, the 3.5.

You had the 3.5. Oh, the jags. Isn't it funny to be on a car that we had the N-6? No, we've had a lot of cars.

NSX for me. Oh, we shut it up with that. NSX. But anyway.

So you got your license check? You got the audience. Almost. Almost.

What's wrong? What's wrong? Hey, why are you strapped to said so? Yeah.

So you've been on your house for 10 years, have you? I'm a good driver. Yeah. It's just slow learner.

Yeah, you think so. So when you get your license? Now that we've put them out there. Yeah.

I'll have it in too much. Now the lower. Oh, yeah. So you're going to cap it now.

Yeah, it's funny. If you ever wanted to have a car of your birth year, like I had that car of your birth year. I thought I'd keep it forever. I'm glad I got rid of it.

It was a 73. Well, it's the bloody home. The chair tells it'll be at the terrago, wouldn't it? Yeah, no.

Well, all the guys we had in my lane now. I've got a 96 model. I know. You're half an octave of grace for my son, 2009.

But you know. 2000, we've got it. This keeps us 2000, like us, my son. Yeah, I know.

What they are, he's eight. I want to do your T1. Right? I'm up with the nature, didn't it?

One more thing. Yeah. And a G-box. It is.

Yeah. It's gonna be hard to bring it back on my lane. Yeah, I know. Inside Jack, you'll need to know what the fuck?

What are they talking about? So you're going to have a late a couple of weeks, tons of race on the fence. Yes, production series. We have Zack.

Who has that cup series happening at Eastern Creek in? Ah, exactly. Sorry. Sorry.

Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. In, don't get a bit tired.

With dyslexic. Yeah. It's getting two weeks time, I think, at Eastern Creek. So I might go there.

What do you reckon? Yeah. We'll do that. Because Rick and all that.

The racing. Yeah, go there. Sorry. Let's see when that's on.

Which we need to have a thing with Zack. Zack is asking about his driving. He's trying to drive four events. Well, he's getting ready for Bathurst.

Get his international license. Yeah. So with the A for Zack, we had Zack on some time ago. And it was on 18 month process for him to get the Bathurst.

So we're nearly there. We're out by there. He's got the car going. Seems to think the cup cars a bit slow.

I'm sure it might be the driver. It's the name behind the wheel. What was that? The name behind the wheel.

I didn't say that Zack. Couple other things. The studio is coming up. Yes.

You've got to move to the new studio. Look how much I offered you. I'm drawing the me for TV in a filing cabinet. I'm just excited to use my new equipment that I've had for a while now.

And we're the yeany mics top mic, but we're going to have our own individual mics. So as soon as TV's in there, let's do it after this. So we're going to... It's got a mad thing.

So that's coming up. And that's it. Great us. What was that?

Frid-taw-kick-it. Yeah, I think it's a frid-taw. Oh, I'm talking about sponsors, Mr. Lika.

Is that cool? I'm not the new sponsor. Well, not yet. Yeah, it's happening.

It's happening. It's a side of the contract. Yeah, that's right. Not like our friends at Mr.

Lika. So we'll have that frid-taw working. Yes. And we'll have some supplements doing the show.

Oh, shit, yeah. So we've got Zack. We've got a few guests coming up. We've got...

I haven't lined up any cars in a live drive yet. I don't like the live drive. Sorry. You've got some nice cars.

You don't ring me for a live drive. You've got to cut your hoodie in it. Why? You would do some of the hoodie in them.

Yeah, no, I know. It's spirit of driving. Sorry, sorry. Spirit of driving.

Just because you get scared the way I drive. You're fucking in that time. Just get the shit out of it. Mate, we're recording the back of the hoodie holding each other.

Spirit of driving. Yeah, it's the first day. The second one. The second one.

The second one had no power. Yeah, I was happy. Good guy. Yeah, I was happy.

But the first drive. Look what me and Rick were trying to do. But yeah, I might even take the mic with me to add like. It's all yours.

But I think so. Forget that. I know you do turn it off. I did turn it off.

Turn it off. So write us a review on it. Send your emails. And also look at that.

Look.com.au. And bye for now. Bye. Bye.

What? How can we color noise it? How can we? It's got to be a transition period from where they went to be like.

The view is a option. At the start they're all big for you. I didn't find out about that. Yeah, they're too big for us.

I like it. The most of it is something wrong because the first book you've called up was a lot bigger. Now it's gone to the living of the public side. I've been with it for decades.

I did. I still did the 2000s. I'm going to show you some of the books I've got. There's a few books there.

Oh, your dynamic lines. There's all these bullshit lines. Good cards. Yeah.
