Fuel talk, I was in a strange space debating between getting a quattroporte qp5 or a Mazda rx8. I now have a 2011 rx8 for 6 months and I’m getting 14mpg on 150ftlb of torque! While it’s the most agile 4 seater ive ever driven, I do wonder what life would be like paying 14mpg with 400hp and torque instead.
@russellsmith454927 күн бұрын
@@tnutss I had a 2003 rx8. Did 113k miles in it. Averaged about 20mpg in it in general. Even got 30mpg out of it on a boring motorway run. Heading for 9k rpm in 3rd was just the best though 😊 I'd love to get an R3 now but just couldn't cope with £735/year road tax/ved/whatever you want to call it, it would do my head in

I’m not into cars. I don’t watch your channel but my husband is a car enthusiast and watches all the you tubers and over the years I’ve seen little glimpses of your channel and your ethos around dad cars and not settling for boring has inspired my husband greatly. He’s grown a business over the last 7 years whilst I have raised our babies at home. It’s been a slog. Lots of sacrifice. Lots of working hoping that some day it will pay off whilst dealing with the struggle of paying your staff more than you pay yourself. In the last 12 months I’ve started my own business now that our children are in school. Things are shifting for us. Our world is expanding and most relevantly to this channel my husband is now comfortably able to buy his dream car an Audi RS6. We drove up to London last week and picked it up and he’s loving it. The unexpected element is how it’s impacting our children. It’s so empowering for them to see us work hard for something and then make it a reality. The daily drive in it makes all the shit moments in business feel worth while. I’m stoked for my husband. I’m stoked for you. I’m stoked for all the other people out there who set out with a vision and slog their guts out until they get it. This video brought me to tears. Well done you 🎉

Brilliant, really enjoy your videos and hope your plan for growing pans out. I’m currently waiting for my lease on 5er to run out to start looking for 997, my absolute dream car.

Love it, I've just bought a cheap grancabrio with a few issues, people advised me strongly not to which made me even more determined to make it mine! Glad to see someone else with the balls to do it! Sport maserati forum us full of help, autel ap200 @£50 will diagnose most problems. Enjoy the noise, love the channel

Truly inspiring video. Honestly, quite an emotional watch (in a really good way). Just lovely to see you being that magic Dad. Your family clearly so appreciate you. I have a few years on you, but had that same relationship with my Dad, and then my Son. You are so right about being in the moment, and a car can very much be the signature for that - I can also tell you it lasts forever. You have a great journey ahead and deserve every success.

Absolutely love your channel, you're doing all the right things and as a father of 4; adore your balance between cars and fam. I just thought I had to comment. I pulled out the stops to purchase a GranCabrio in - home renovation saw that go in 2021. I have been on the market again and having evaluated everything out there, realisation was nothing compared to the 2+2 and most importantly, the sound. Had to get a GTS, managed to find one and paid for it last Sat. It is the only one of its spec in the country, so feel quite fortunate. In any case, I completely share your sentiments and just feel the GTS is one of those timeless cars that encapsulate every petrolhead emotion. I tell you what, I had never switched on the radio or listened to any music whatsoever in the Grancabrio thought my ownership of it The one I have now is the last edition and despite the upgraded hifi, etc, It'll be the same. Nothing compares to the cross plane Ferrari V8.
