No one asked this but my strangest car buying experience was a 97 Peugeot 306 2.0 XSi, few hours drive away in Palmerston North and asking price was $2600 NZD. This was back in 2012. Car looked very tidy in the photos, nice shade of red, sports exhaust, mint factory 5 spoke alloys, sweet. So i messaged him to see if we could see the car this weekend, all good. So we turn up, car looks as good as in the pictures, ask if we can take it for a drive, " err sure if it'll start you can, but first i need a photo of your license. " No mention of running issues in the listing, ( in hindsight i should've asked before such a long drive but i was young and still rather dim. ) Eventually we got the car started and took it for a test drive, everything felt mint, only thing the tires wouldn't pass a WoF ( MoT ) and the cold starting issue was the main concern. We'd come all this way so no matter what we're taking it, so i bullshitted my way around being a Peugeot/Citroen mechanic claiming i knew exactly what was wrong with it and that it's going to set me back a lot on parts to get it running right again, plus the tires were shot so i offered $1700 NZD. No hesitation " Yep. " We do a bank transfer right there, hands me the keys " Any problem, not my problem now. " as he backs away slowly with his hand up in the air.... Once we got closer to home we got a strong stink of fuel, i figured it's been ok this far, last bit of the trip she'll be right, down the driveway and the smell was very very strong, figured it would be wise to let the car cooldown a bit first. After a cup of tea, open the bonnet and have sniff about for a fuel leak, i found the hose and prodded it, it then ruptured and sprayed petrol all over the thankfully now stone cold exhaust manifold... Oh and it was a $20 temp sensor that was the cold start issue. We've still got the car, she's been pretty good to us overall.

In regards to window tint i think you boys need to visit Australia where you have it for a purpose. The heat reduction on your arm or side of face with it on is immediately noticeable, plus it saves your interior from fading. I have 15% LT tint on all my dailys and work vehicles. I have not put it on my 1978 Opel Manta though as it would not suit, even though i worry about the interior in the sun.

20:30 funny story I can relate to, I live in Australia and I bought a Holden Calais as my first car (Calais is a fancy trim package for the Holden Commodore) and it had the supercharged V6 engine. In Australian slang, the Buick/Ecotec 3.8-litre V6 engines are often referred to as "mangs" or a "mang mang" or something to this effect. This is because "mang" is the sound they make when they bounce off the rev limiter. So I began calling my Holden Calais "the mang" and eventually this terminology stuck on amongst my friends and family to the point where my father who is in his mid-60s would ask "Will you be taking the mang today??". I'm not sure if he ever found out what mang really meant 😆

Oh yes, living in Scotland, the sun (on the rare chance that it shows itself) when it's rising or setting is in your eyes, it's annoying, having windows tinted would really help with that.

I get Will's take completely. I'd rather be King of the chavs than the poorest guy at the golf club. I usually look for the step down from the top spec model as top specs generally depriciate slower (so ST instead of RS, GTI instead of R, etc.) and find cars of these specs within my budget and pain tolerance. I've never understood people who would buy, for example, a base spec polo over an ibiza FR, or even a polo GTI that's the same generation, just a couple of years older. I instantly assume those guys like football.

49:36 Window tint use case: I got my Mercedes CLA Shooting Brake 200d (2022) with factory tint at the back. Two reasons for this: 1) The only people I'll carry at the back are carpoolers I pick up when I drive very long distances (500+mi/day). The dark windows combined with the black roof liner put my passengers in some sort of a cosy cocoon in which they almost inevitably fall asleep. I can, then, drive peacefully without being bothered by their chitchat, their phone calls or the videos they would be watching on their phones without headphones. 2) I use my car as a lightweight camper van, sometimes leaving for more than 2 weeks on the roads of Europe, sleeping on a mattress at the back, with real pillows and proper sheets. The dark windows and black roof liner allow me to park anywhere and not risk being seen naked by a hiker passing by or a family of 5 parking next to me. It also keeps my car significantly cooler in the summer, which is perfect for those sunny mornings I want to sleep in. I will never not have an estate car without window tint at the back.

A light tint means I don't need to wear sunglasses over my regular glasses, or pay for the expensive transition lenses. It also provides a UV barrier, which keeps the interior of car cooler; this is important here in Kansas, where we were over 90 degrees Fahrenheit every day this entire summer (and much of the spring and fall so far), and often over 100 degrees. Just my two cents.

It was the same colour (Le Mans blue) with the same body kit etc but it didn’t have iDrive, no heated seats, no climate control, no puddle lights, no Bluetooth audio etc etc and it was only £350 cheaper than the car I bought. And there was literally only 200 or so miles difference on the odometer. And they were both 61 plates. So I obviously paid the little bit extra and bought the higher spec car 🤷‍♂️

I live in the high desert and tints are nice to help keep the sun and heat out in the summer! Also some tint does look nice

Edwin (whose legs barely fit within the wide camera shot): "You don't see a sunroof when you look at a car." Probably true for Mr. Kersten, but dude, you could see a sunroof on a double-decker bus! 😂❤

Car runed everyting. I bought an e46 330 touring (with the SMG gearbox). Didnt even make it home. Back half of the car all the brake lines are rotten and leaking. And I sold my old car (a 98 rover 400 tourer, which never had any issues) so now I dont even have car to drive to work. Love the podcast btw!

If it was a 330 it would have been the SSG which was even worse than the SMG and a totally different box. Thankfully they didn’t sell many, the standard torque converter was much better, just needs regular lubrication of the selector linkage under the car or the change ups get very lazy

I love podcasts and this is quite interesting but could you please insert some pictures when mentioning cars, rather than describing them? I am very curious to see some of them.. Other than that, quite entertaining podcast.

Nice now we have 2 cool podcasts from former CT members i guess CT crashing and burning gave us much more fun content :D Good job boys love it and im with Will on the tint one some places have hot summer not that you lads in the UK know about that :D and tint saves your interior from burning over time and being super hot when you enter the car. Also tint just looks cool on some cars :D

I had a pretty similar thing with my Evo 8! Bought it super clean. Synchro on 3rd left the chat after 4 months, 2 months waiting for the box to be rebuilt. Then after a year it tried to set on fire, so fixed it and sold it to a guy who came all the way down from Aberdeen (8 hours) who drove it back without tax or insurance... I'm sure it's a cube now because I can't find it anywhere.

I have window tints on the rear doors and boot of my F11, purely for when I transport the dogs, it keeps the interior cooler for them.

The story telling around the purchase of the cheap drag cars can be put into the episode itself. Top gear would do that if you think about it, either on the spot during the shooting or in the studio

My Daihatsu Materia has fairly dark factory tints in the rear and it works to make it look cool in a very boxy way.

The tint if done correctly can actually cool down your car during the summer, because quality window tint can block UV rays from the sun and also it reflects some sunlight. A car with no window tint absorbs more sunshine and heat than a car with window tints.

I guess being born and raised in Florida my whole life, window tint is like one of the first things you do to a car here. My own personal car a 2016 chevy suburban i have 5% in the back and 15% on the front 2 windows and a tint strip on the windshield. The heat from driving on road trips on non tinted cars gives me headaches and the tint dramatically reduces the heat it allows in. The tint on my truck is ceramic which helps more. Also being a technician here, i've worked on quite a few trucks and cars that has 5% tint all around and then 20% on the windshield. Driving them into our shop makes it look like night time but man the amount of heat it reduces from coming thru your windows is immense. I do also like the privacy of window tint. But also being in the U.S, theirs a lot of good tint shops that if its done right it wont bubble the tint for a long time. And also i personally think tint dramatically changes the look of a car in a good way.

You can tiny windows for thermal it’s nearly clear but stops the car getting hot. Not relevant to you in England but here in Australia it is a good move.
