Do we sound check? That's what I'm saying. Sound check, sound check. Is it?
It's just... Gaines there. Yeah, it's okay. All good.
It's working? I'm buzzing your wheels. Sorry. I think I can't stop.
I can't stop. Good morning, good evening. I'm listening to the old talk cop on cars hosted by Peter Arranis joining me tonight is Mr. Roscoe Lettis.
We're here at the Hill of Hunters. I have to reveal. Enjoying people to live in Castle Hill where I sound. Oh my God, is it?
I don't know where your harness hill is. Yeah, we try to keep it up. I'm sorry for everyone. Yeah, it's just a little bit.
Just below dended all cells. It's it's... Frank's done. Where you buy your...
What? What did you buy now? New parts already. You just announced it before we...
Yeah, date on my wife. She doesn't. She doesn't. Okay.
So what? The rain driver is sitting in a... Oh, rain driver? You're just in the last one?
I was in the last one. The last one? Yeah. What's I called?
I'm like, I'm just going to rain driver. Is that it? Yeah, it just rain. You're all comfortable with the new badges.
The guy still rings me from a dealership. If you've listened to the last episode about the colour change. Just see me do that. Yeah, going, so we have an order in front.
I'm like, we did that already. Can you give me a service deal on the car that I bought in Melbourne? Loser? Yeah.
Go service it then. One, two, three. Take the warranty work then. I'm only going to get some money work.
Yeah. I don't think so. Do I? Okay.
Are we going to put a bet now live? I'm going to bet you that I bet you the first three years of ownership. Three years of ownership? It's going to last that long in your house.
Okay. The first 12 months of ownership. 12 months. 12 months of romance.
No, I will not have one single mechanical issue with that car. Mechanical. I'm saying warranty. You want to take it back on not on a service schedule for what?
For something. You want to take it back at least once in 12. It's already there now. No, it's not.
It's not. It's not. No, no. If you did that, break it and I started laughing.
You did get it at once. I reckon. Yeah, I reckon with this. So you're saying it's not going back?
I'm saying in the next 12 months from the day. So from tomorrow you pick it up. You will not go back. Not going back for unscheduled stuff.
No, it's scheduled. No, not going for a service. Yeah. Not going for a service.
Yeah. I'm saying it will. Yeah. What are you betting?
If it does go back, I'll take you for any restaurant you want. Any restaurant you want. Any restaurant you want. You're not coming to sleep.
They're just uninvited. I'll take you after dinner. Yeah, wait. Anyway, the world.
It's like a good van. We'll get one of those van. Yeah. It's like the water.
It was like the water. Leave the water. Come on top. We've got a few.
There's a lot of wheels. We'll go to the range. Already. We've got the car.
I know, but I like to get ahead of the game. We'll have some. They should sponsor us. We'll have wheels and tyres.
We'll have wheels and tyres. I don't know. Even someone joking. We'll have the range.
I'm not called a vogue. What do you mean? We'll have to get those. You know, God.
No, we'll get a 23. So there's 23. You can get a 22. Can you just check before you fucking lose your warranty that you can do that?
I won't. I need to take it back for warranty work. I'm just going to make it with you. I'm going to get the car.
What is it? I don't know. You don't do what you did to the art store. We want to do a life-drowned whiskey.
What do you do to the art store? What do you do to the art store? I took my Volkswagen for service. My art store has got...
It's up for us 15 seconds. It's up for us 15 seconds. It's up for us 15 seconds. It's got it's gone for us 15,000.
It's called the Local Vaux. You go, what's this? What do you mean? You go, what's it?
I can't service this. I said, why not? I said, what have you done with this? I said, what have you done with this?
I said, I've done a high-frit-turb, down-pipe, down-pipe, down-pipe, down-pipe, down-pipe, down-pipe. The exhaust system. I've ripped the speed to that. I've ripped the coil over the roof.
I've put sound system in it. I did a tune on the DS3. He goes, you take it somewhere. I was about to cover it.
He goes, if I service it, I'm going to wipe the tune. Anyway, he didn't want to touch it. So you've got the art team downstairs. The art team downstairs.
The ranger over not called the vogue. He's sitting in Minto where he picked up. And there's a ratty-use. How's the ratty going?
The best ratty. The best ratty. The best ratty. The best ratty.
The best ratty. The best ratty. Three years with the best ratty. It's been amazing.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. But it's not really a best ratty spot. My wife, we're driving home. We happened to be at a school function, watching my son play basketball on Friday night.
She's driving home. She's in front of me. She says, hey, there's a slight noise in the back right. I think I've got a flat tire.
And I said, I'm driving. She's pretty colluded. I don't know why. I didn't think I'd let her fly tight.
She goes, no, there's a wearing noise. It's a little bit out. She did actually say to me a couple of weeks ago, I think the camber on the rees out. Yeah.
Okay. Because compared to my wife, the lights down from the yellow to red. Okay. So my wife's quite colluded.
She said a few weeks ago that she thought the camber was out because we were sitting tight on the back. We were quite stepped out on the back. Anyway, she's right. It was out.
And it's literally warmly inside of both of the retires. So she picked up the camber. Eight or three weeks ago. And as she's driving, she heard those sort of sliders.
And I said, oh, you must have just picked up a plastic bag or something. No faster. So she starts ripping it around the baron. It turns off like a sister.
Yeah. She's ripping it across the baron. And I'm on the phone doing it. I'm like, is that getting louder?
She goes, yes, getting louder. I said, is she coming out the back of the car? And it was like cotton. It was like fabric.
This fabric sugar. I thought it was like James Bond. What'd you get? You were good.
I was like, well, well, well. Well, they're not round flats, but it had like the round flat fabric in them. So there was no, there's no steel. It's fabric.
So it's gone through the rubber. They're only on the inside. Yeah. But on both.
So she was right about the camera a month ago. And then there's the left one. The same. The left one's just starting.
Starting. And I'm like, cool. So there was no pressure. I was like, that's actually perfect.
So I went up to my local guy who I've known for a long time, he's used to work. He's a type heroin. Gladesville. Shout out.
So that's Nick up there. The poor bloke. Has to deal with my shit now. And he goes, just drive it.
He goes, it's not going to burst. Like he'll just be attacked. It's like a, it's like a life run. It's almost like you didn't even talk.
Instead of the light. I'm telling you downstairs. I ripped it over the gladesville bridge and I thought, you know what? If it's going to go, it's going to go.
So I'll just be the hill of Hunter's in Melbourne. It's like a dead one. He dead. So I get it over to Tai Power and I'm just dumped it in his front.
Yes, Sanne. Can you get me a sign? No. No, no, no, no.
No, no, no. My son has his own car because he's always out of his car. He's there. So there's only one car downstairs.
Which is the Artin. But we can't do a live drive. And your wife won't drive that. She's out of his car.
She picked up the kids from school. But she's got to be careful in the car. You've got to be careful in the car. You've got to be real.
This car's really low. This car's really low and the exhaust, the Miltek, sits quite low. She's told you they can't. It's fucking the up.
No, no, no. She's just big. Look, it's live. It drives beautiful.
Like it's a really good car. She likes that. It's got a lot of power too. But I didn't realise it's Maserati.
Have Maserati specific tyres. So he says to me, I can perform. So let's go back and again. You've had the car for three years.
Have you had the car for three years? Change tyres in that period? No. Okay, so you're not putting the case on it.
No, probably got 18,000 out of here. No, you're not going to sell it? No. No.
She really loves that car. Yeah, no, I'm not going to sell it. It's a good ticket. So you've never changed it?
No, no, no, no. So we've gone, so he goes, I can put Kumo's on there. Korean. Which are like 200 bucks a tyre.
And then the same size as you need. And I've got any stock. I've got a motor option. He goes, well, you can put a content on.
It's 400 and something dollars. But you need to get the Maserati specific one. There's 600 of the tyres over there now. Content into contact sevens.
Which is the factory Maserati. Yeah, that's the right time. As much as I love modifying things, I'm a factory guy. It comes like that.
Yeah, it's a lot of fire. So I just said, you know what, no, the Kumos. No. I've had Kumos years ago.
They're not bad. Yeah, but you don't need them. No, no, no, the Pareles. Because Pareles have a tyre as well.
I said yes to the Content into all. Which is the specific Maserati tyre. So that's what 400 odd. No, no.
That was for the non-specific one. The same tyre from Content into all. So Pareles was 400 and something. It's like $600 and $9.
That's a spec one. Correct. Yeah. And do they have a content that's not as a spec with the same top and though.
Yeah, no, no. I say, it's a purely for Maserati. I don't need the rear ones, you've got to go, go take them off the front. So it's a square set, you can't rotate them around?
Yeah. It's a square set, but I'm actually, because I haven't changed in tyre so I just said change all four. I was just going 400 times that'd be three fouries old. Yeah.
You've got the dot-code, Yeah. The cars are 22. Well, the cars are 22. The speakers are 22.
I mean, you probably said them, I don't know if you go to the dealership. I saw my first FCT 20 Maserati on the road. I bought a fucking beast. Why would I make the factory ones?
I didn't get a big stance. And I saw a yellow one yesterday and he was sexy. I saw a dark red light that has the ring. He is the way.
Maz and I saw a side profile. Quite interesting in the factory we were watching. They were all hand built. So the way the guys, oh, I don't have any.
I'm asking now. It's half a mill. But just the way they were putting these things together. The guys were like, security one hand.
You're kicking the door. I remember I said this story in the early 90s. We back packed Europe with our ring. And we did a BMW factory tour.
And I was building the E36 series at the Munich line. And they had the Gus Arbeiter, the two German's. They were on the line. That's what the E36 was saying.
I'm thinking, well done guys. I wanted to go back 30 years later. I'm done. I'm done watching a YouTube now because I'm watching something on the safety of cars.
So the reliability of cars today versus the reliability of cars in the 70s and 80s and 90s. And they were saying a company like, I'm sorry, a company like Mercedes for example. Remember that E90? E190?
E190? So that's a W-1. The one 90. Sorry, the one 90.
That's a W-1. So take that car for example. That was good for proof of car. Yeah, correct.
But take that car there and compare it to say the current C-Class now. Similar car. Right. Okay.
Two-liter engine. All that stuff. Yeah. They would take that car before it was sent for production.
One of them did like 190,000 miles whilst they were turning off. They would smash into walls. They'd so much testing for the car. Correct.
Before the car was released. So the car was reliable. They had all that stuff. What they were saying now is this YouTube was saying, and he's right.
He was saying Mercedes now do the best they can to get the car scratch. Then they send it out. And where the updates come from customer complaints. And I was like, what?
And he was sort of saying that the way that we get data now is a company. He's from our customer complaints. Yeah. So these are not from electronic.
Correct. So these guys have been testing for five years. The cars are getting data long. Remember when I had the first Porsche Macarnet diesel?
And I was having problems every three months. It was a time of diesel gate. And it was such a top car, such a disappointing engine. I got rid of it after a year.
And they got to the stage where they plucked my car in and sent my information to Germany to see if I was driving it within their parameters. That was unquote. So these cars get data long. Forget now we test all of the air out.
Whatever. These cars in the last 10 years get data long. They plug into some of the port back in the day. And that's where the data is.
We fixed problems. I mean, look at the issues that I can talk about. But the issues I had with the XM BMW, with the battery not talking to the main computer. They started with your driving.
It's the way you do all of that stuff. Realistically, I put a set of wheels and suspension. There was no engine. It was too new to do anything.
They passed for it. They came and tuned it. They basically took from what I can see all the data that I had given them on how bad my car was to improve the next cars. It was the first batch.
I'd love to buy the new M5. I can't do it. You know what's out? Well, I didn't believe that being done with the 540D.
They've got a 540D. It's a 160. I'm talking about the brakes in 600. Yeah, because I'm not shopping yet for another 12 months.
That's a cool car. I'm happy with the Tesla. I know I'm a... I love sedans.
It's a dying breed. I had a K&J last week when I drove to Brisbane by Brother's car. And I'm sort of turning back to issue these. I'm still looking for the new Mccarnie V.
That fucking falls beyond... What about an X-ping? We're getting the X-pigs. We're talking about the X-pigs.
I'm going to go out there and say that I think X-pigs share about $17 at the moment. I think... I'm going to throw some money at it and we'll watch it grow. Yeah, I think X-pig is going to be the X-pigs.
I've got confirmation that we're getting some cars off of them. So, shout out to someone on any steam out there. So, I really think that's a car company we need to watch. They're not bad.
They're not bad. They're not bad. They're not bad. They're not bad.
They're not bad. They're not bad. They're not bad for them. I'm not bad.
They're not bad. They're not big ones. That's what they want since the car's due review. They're not big ones.
They're finding enthusiasm. Yeah. The car's not same. Look, it stupid.
It's not going to be bad. What is that? They just asked me to ask what it noise. No, no, it looks like I was going to buy something for be Castell.
No. It's like a old hatchback car. The six is just coming out of Becca's car. They're pushing the EVs.
I suppose they're calling it a semi rises. Look, if you, like I was in a have all one of my staffs got a have all job. Let me, let me, oh, if you're on a budget and you want a new car, like I set you the interior, a few blindficers put me in the stitching. She paid $26,000 for this thing.
It's got black stitching. I'm going over the wheels. Right. Right.
But it's got all the dash, all the, you know, the push button. It's got everything. Okay. It's underpowered.
And I think the suspension is like that they have not, they've probably got a five year old school, you know, school exchange program to do this. So putting that aside, if you want a new car with a 70 warranty with all the features, and you're on a budget, yeah, there's nothing wrong with that car. That's true. And you're going to keep it for five to seven years.
And if you, what if the 26 brand new, what's the depreciation? Who cares? 2015, can I start off at 10? Where, you know, if you buy a big work or a back end, I mean, they weren't the options models, I didn't have the money to buy whatever I was growing up.
But there was the option that, you know, the Hyundai Excel is what 49 I, I don't know a piece of shit, I don't know a piece of shit. It's a shit, we still don't know. Yeah. So, yeah, the happens, maybe they have us all right.
I don't know, maybe. But if you're putting context, would you buy a 60-year-old 6,000 or 26,000? I'd buy a brand new warranty. If you got a kid's family.
We'd buy a warranty. Instead of buying someone else's $100,000 case. Yeah, but they're not. You know, so, you know, the Chinese, what the Greens were 20 years ago, what the Japanese were 40 years ago, they're going to get it right.
Data breach. I am sick of data breaches. I caught the truck, I've got this, Medibank and someone else. So you telling me someone else?
I've got a name out. What would it say? From Avers. Avers.
Hey, what's the really good company? It's a data breach. I think it's not what it's going to say. It's got my information.
It's got my information. Ooh, Peter doesn't like it. That's bizarre. That's fucking dumb.
But anyway, I'm sick of these data breaches. What were details on the black and red say, you know, 50s listening or? No, my information is there, I'll pass it over to Carson. Yeah, someone.
I always get zero insurance and I had it back with one left. Oh, yeah. My brother had an e-class with our friend Bill. His phrase is zero excess, zero worries.
And on the last day, they drove around European to see class and he dicks a hazard across the bonnet. And they took a car back. And they needed a look at the bonnet already. He goes to watch zero excess, zero worries.
But you know what? I paid the extra for the zero. So I was talking to someone the other day and he was saying that he lives in nobody. He doesn't have a car but he rents a car whenever he needs one.
And he was in a bad mood. I mean, what's wrong? He goes, oh, someone, I hit another car in a car park in the rent car. And I had to pay three and a half to that's not an excess.
Okay, mate, why don't you just pay the extra $100 for the insurance? You're getting a higher car for two days. He goes, but it's an extra $200. Okay.
I'm going to get a half grain. Okay, so yeah, but I rent the car five or six times a year and a don't. I think you're mine. No, and I've learnt that, especially when you go overseas, you don't want to fuck around with that.
Because they've got your credit card on a file. You've experienced that. You've said on the podcast a couple of days ago with Cree. Like, I'm still getting tickets for a bottle of credit.
But they'll all get the money from your car and say, are you under trade? You're not there. Yeah. So I always pay the extra excess for the insurance.
You don't want to fuck around. I always do zero excess. You want to take it back. If there's a...
Give us reasonable. You know someone ding or scratch or whatever. Zero excess doesn't come tight. Yeah, all roads.
There's a few little things you want to read the fine print. But a long time you've got truck. You know, I do the guys when they go zero excess for a vote. You just need to read the fine print.
I'm not pretty good at reading. Can you read it to me? And you say, look at your, they go, what? It's like 45 pages.
Like, I did the opposite. When I was a young gun lawyer, there was a cure for a fight people behind me. They came out and I'm like, come on. I'm reading the contract.
Because the amount of clients that come to the office and I said, did you read it? They say no. I read it. Practice what you picked.
Yeah. And my wife would fuck it. Maybe we should just get these contracts and pop them into AI generators and they can summarize them for us. I'm going to be the end of the day.
If you don't crash it, you just hand it back. Everyone's happy. Japan used update. Well, I mean, Japan is still one of the best Fridays I've had in a long time.
But what I've been talking about last week was all these bands and stuff that were there. Every time we get into a Uber, we'll talk about this the other day. Yeah. They weren't like shitty devices.
They were those big. Like a LFII. Yeah, a LFI. And a LFII and a LFII.
LFII and LFII. LFII. Yeah. Well, Lexus is brought in here.
They've dropped the terrace. They've got the Lexus version here. Man, these things are luxurious. But it brings me back to, we're talking about Libby Walks and all those modify cars.
Some things just need to stay in Japan. It's like the K cars. Like all those cars. Like all of them.
Like all of them. They're cool over there. Like a poco works. It works over there.
Did you ever say do you see a Lancris or a Japan? I hate it. You meant to say no. Because I'm not designed for Japan, it's on for a Saturday.
So we're in snow and this guy rolls up next to us. And Catherine, my wife, she likes cars. She says something. She knows about cam bars.
She turns around and she goes, how about these Lancris? And it was an old, what's the early series? The ADC. Is it 70 series?
The ADC is like the Bumdear on once. Yeah. True. Carry on.
Correct. This thing. It's brand new. Right?
And I got us into the guy in my Japanese. He spoke English thankfully. I was just like, did you point that out? That was an easy.
It was a brown colour. And he had snowboards on the roof and went over. It looked so cool. And I was just like that.
I just came through the desert. I'm matching it with one of the two. It was so old school. Yeah.
But brand new. Like LED headlights, but still there's a cool clunk set. Yeah. So it reminded me of a G class.
Well, yeah. They still have that in the engines. But I think they did die for those fucking girls. And I bought you a gift in Japan, but it's on a 20.
It's a gift. It's been a gift. I forgot last time. We said it.
So the same crew bought your present. So I brought it today. It's special. You have to open it.
Oh, fucking fill it up. So it's got, I mean, it's obvious what it is. That's imminent. Imidence.
I went to the end factory. But they're just not any imminent. They are. No way.
Oh, they say man has made you else. That's amazing. So are they okay? The paint's coming off.
That's perfect. Yeah. Three months old obviously. So the candy, they last nine years.
The candy does, but obviously that's so cool. It's been, yeah. Because you're not allowed to put them under the luggage. Because apparently.
So you carry these everywhere? No, because if you put them under the plane. You're the best. Because of the pressurization or something.
It wrecks the... Is there any inventory in Las Vegas? Well, you have to come. Yeah.
It's uh, there's four stories. They probably get it. Sounds like a show. Somebody got factory in, um...
That's right. It's a shot. Yeah. But it's four stories, so off the coast.
Goes one. Yeah, I mean... Can you get through. I don't know.
We tried that when I go. Well, we're already going. Not because our Rangerove is going to die. We're going to go because I want to go.
But it's something he's there. But when I've got... No, it's not the Coca-Cola. You know, Tom got the Coca-Cola.
Yeah. Yeah. Back in the day. You weren't allowed to get pepsy on it.
Oh. and curie them all over the world. And our black boxes, right? But with labels?
No, no labels. But the boxes were massive boxes. I beat curie boxes. Massive, huge.
Like, 50, 300s, right? And they gave them the FedEx. So DHL gave them the FedEx to ship around the world. Yeah, and they were trackers in them to see, no.
The boxes were thermal sensitive. So as soon as they hit the sunlight, it said DHL, we're faster. Oh, then, yeah. Something about here, we're far, literally.
So FedEx will land the plane, or bring it. All the DHL would say, use DHL, we're faster than FedEx. And these FedEx guys are walking around. DHL, we're faster than the DHL.
We're faster than the DHL. And they're still too good. They're still too good. They're still good.
Hey, they're delivering. That's a fine answer. They're still too good. Oh, yeah.
Where could you do that? What other business could you do that? I don't know. I've got some Pepsi on the Coke can.
I've got some comprets. What's that? I've got some musical operator. Well, I've got to get out of Melbourne for work, as you know, the week before.
Are we coming? Wait for it. So the week before? I've got to come here, tickets.
I then had somebody today saying, hey, listen, I've got two spare pad club tickets for Sunday only. Would you and Catherine like to come? Yeah, I'll be Catherine. And I said, I'll go.
I think my last really interesting that time was days. You guys, OK, so my plans are coming. Oh, yeah. You've got you.
You've just got me on the side for nothing. Oh, so I'm going to go and pray. Catherine, we've got it. This is the top of my case.
OK, I'm going to go. Yeah, that's right. So she'll go next to Ferrari. If she sees the tires with the white, she'll be up.
Just a guy. Get out of the car. Get out of the car. You wanted a 26-5, 30, 21.
