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.
@russellsmith4549Ай 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 🎉

Found the channel as follow Auto Funk, hey great show, I am doing some automotive videos out in Dubai were I work as an airline Captain, not for profit currently, great show! Glad you took this Gran Turismo! Test drove a red Gran Cabrio out here loved it. Looking forward to more content, have recommended the channel to the pilot community out here.

Ben over the moon for you always a highlight of my weekend man and just as always a great up lifting vid that makes me feel good about my 23 year old CL500. Made an old man happy and locking onto Lu’s channel what a top cat❤🎉🎉

Loved this video - getting your dream car is a great feeling…also you’ve done a great job in downgrading a few times and ending up with a better car than you started with 😅 I’m a bit older, but have a Mustang Mach 1 as a Grandad car 😂

Ah man the Mach 1 is incredible! 🙌 what a grandad car!
