Alex likes SUV's, time to unsubscribe :-)
Strip all the body panels off the E46 and whip it round the track! Make it as light as possible and rag it to its death
People who act like they are the "safety cars" of the road should have their faces rearranged with fists.
Jack, that joke was insane dude!! 😂😂😂
Sorry but the woman singing the jingle, it was so depressing!!! You need something upbeat 😉
Wish you guys would talk about Saabs, they are the best cars out there ❤
might be a trottle body prob
23:46 Found the flood story.
"i looked at the brakes earlier, that looks easy" um
12:55 I kinda agree with that guy. Concerning All the modern vans, There characterless tractor powered, voguish and plasticity euroboxes. It reminds me of those VW kids that modify their diesel Passat, Or those people that colourcode their windscreen wipers and calipers Haha The Only Vans that can pulloff modifications are oldskool. Like the old Volkswagen campers, The badass 70-80s V8 American vans, Old petrol transits, Bedfords, etc.
I really feel what Jack is talking about the SUVs and so.
Jack is the only one I respect now, electric cars? SUVs? tut tut tut
them trying to guess an aussie name and in my head i had Lauchlin and the blokes actually called Lauchlin! hahahahha
I actually have a wonder, as I could've bought my dream car, a '67 Lincon Continental 4dr suicide hard top. It was either that, or get married. I got married three months after I decided not to jump on it, and was very sad to hear the car was sold, as they are extremely rare in Europe. My life changed quite a bit since, and if I would have gotten it, I'd not be in the same phase of my marriage, simply because of all the cost that would've occurred around the semi restoration of the Lincoln. I'm happy with my wife and our first kid is on its way, but sometimes I wonder... Keep up these nice podcast, I really enjoy them!
Admittedly I've done the pull out on someone during an overtake. The 🔔 end was doing a "slow" over take my cruise control was on 75. But coming up on a truck at speed i had to put an end to his "slow" overtake.
To Ethans point, one thing happens to me some time is the adaptive cruise slows me down when someone is turning of onto a slip road and when the car sees its out the way it speeds up which is a bit awkward sometimes if someone is over taking
Hi guys. Theres a tiny thing that's bugging me. That thing when you say something echoing ever more quietly. You guys keep calling it reverb. It's actually delay. Reverb is like an echo you'd get in a big church. Delay is repeating the sound but quieter and quieter.
Estate all day long.
Holy sh*t as soon as the bit about landrovers being reliable ended I got a Land Rover ad (Also I have a defender 110 and it has had literally every part replaced)
Anybody who prefers an SUV to a wagon for normal road use has 40% of the functioning brain cells of a normal person. Not being judgemental - just stating facts. #TeamJack
22:35 DEAD ☠️ 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ian with the peugeot, check the timing is correct. If youre getting air, fuel and spark, it could be that whoever did the headgasket didnt time it correctly when putting it back together
Gareth is only there to say “MORE” n then being blamed for snapping bolts 👏🏽
I'm with Jack
I have a 13 plate vw caddy. As a groundworker there is no point cleaning the outside, the inside is a boot free shiny palace 👌.
i wish you boys would leave the swearing in the edit , It's more funny 😂🤣👍
Damn millennials and their clean Hayes manuals! What next? No ash trays in their garages? 🤣
Can you guys make a video on the carbon neutral synthetic fuels. They need publicity asap. It would help the mental health of the car community greatly.
'I'll put ChrisFix's email below!' *Honey advert pops up* ffs
I would nominate you guys for top gear if I could would make it great again.
Listening at home while working on my BMW E39, just to say I hate old plastic pipes which break and take bloody forever to replace, they do my head in when you start one job and end up fixing another because something broke while working on another, in the podcast van visit people and help them with their project cars to fix and repair ?
I call the drivers that change their speeds as described near the end of the pod cast "VSTs" (variable speed twats). :)
Lol Alex a tosser had me laughing for ages I'd say he comes across like he's got a massive ego for sure and probably the most annoying for me
Hi guys love the podcasts could you get the carthrottle extra guys on the podcast 👌👍
In one day I have watched Chris Harris say he bought an SUV and you guys talking about how good is Mazda CX (it does no matter which one actually) Please stop this prank it is not funny and the stand up seating position is fucking terrible. P.S. I ride bike and it does not have anything with this BS
The Guy with the 106 should try Reading Out the Errors via the OBD2 Port that is the best you can Go on and should give a rough Idea . A obd Reader costs Not a lot
Did anybody else get a Land Rover advert just after they mentioned their reliability? 😂😂😂
It's pronounced Scotto and lockie mate
The kid with the idling problem sounds like the timing is out, especially if it had been like it after a headgasket change
I miss the is200
The Volvo XC70 is the perfect compromise between estate and suv. Slightly higher up, but still a wagon.
Mk2 golfs are in my opinion built better than current golfs and why not get the best of both worlds and look for a vr/32 swapped mk2. Or a 1.8t mk2 few of them around.
I'm not sure I trust Alex's opinion on anything after hearing him say he likes SUV's
I wish I had something interesting to email in
You can get load rated alloys, common on the vivaro/traffic vans is X5 wheels as they're designed for a 2.8tonne car so are fine on a van with a gvw of 2.8tonnes
jack seems like the only real old skool petrol head left lol, get him a project car!!
Are you ever going to do roast my rides again
Im not even going to bother anymore i love car throttle but u shud let us know when the actual car story is
OMG Alex got old... and not in the good way like Clarksson, complaining in a funny manner about things. Honestly how can a car guy say "I like tweets where police catch people" or want a cx5? Time for a replacement, because these views are bordering with senile behaviour.
Can u do a cheapest subaru impreza or mitsubishi evo challenge?
RE The accelerating topic @47:00 I'm fairly sure it s a psychological thing and is often not done on purpose. How, why etc. no idea... RE: the pulling out topic, VERY OFTEN people dont do two takes on mirrors before signalling/pulling out so they have very little awareness of approaching speed, or simply dont care. You will find that with loud cars general people tend to get out the way more often as they assume the approaching speed is fast, the remaining are just d*cks and get in front on purpose for some willy waving action...
Really don’t like Gareth, get him off
Anybody else notice the resemblance of Alex to Cartman from south park? especially when he sings!
Just because someone cant understand why people would modify vans does that mean people shouldnt? fuck whit
I scrolled down hoping to see a Chris Fix comment
Nice show!
I'm sorry higher cars are way worse for dogs!!!. My poor baby needs to be humiliating lifted into suvs but loves going for rides in coupes and sedans. Also how dare you say motorcycles make you want suvs I can see trucks as a toy hauler but a big heavy rider killer is what you want after being constantly threatened by them and their oblivious divers whilst riding ??
oh christ ive just googled dibble munt
Leave Ethan alone!!! *cries under blanket*
Rowan sounds like a prick lol
For the guy who wants a reliable 80's car: get an old Merc!!! Speaking from personal experience, here. I daily drive a '91 300D and it's an amazing reliable classic! If you' ve never driven an old Mercedes, you'll be surprised how "modern" it feels, it doesn't drive like most 30+ yo cars... they're much ahead of their time, future classics with very good potencial apreciation, and incredibly confortable and reliable.

Love these podcasts so much, really helps when driving around on the job
44:47 - "Ill be officially a racing driver" Idea for another series get Ethan to compete in a track day challenge, a drift challenge and maybe offroad in the Project Z36. Great podcast again guys keep up the good work. xD
ineed your help whats the email adress
Are more videos coming for Ethan’s build ?
with my old fiesta it was an O2 sensor
We need to see Jake and Ethan learn how to ride a bike
9.15 gareths reflexes are shit! If that was a punch he would have a bloddy nose!
Electric cars are for people who don't care about cars, driving, nor do they realize how little they actually "help" the environment. Funny isn't it? Lol
35ish mins through, my Mrs had a Saxo 1.1 many years ago, exactly same as 106 basically. It did the same thing with tickover and rough running, turned out to be the fuel filter!! Located underneath the rear of the RH sill as I remember. I changed everything ignition wise up to then, had fuel pump out, cleaned out vac hoses too. Turns out the FSH car had never had a fuel filter change 🙄 Ethan could well be right on this one 😂😂
That wheel is from what brand/car?
You know when you just can’t unsee something ethans external HDD is hanging of the desk ,did my nut in
Agree with Scotty from Australia but without Alex, there wouldn't be a podcast. Would be just a silent room. Also, make Gareth a regular, he's brilliant
Ethan and jack do a prank on alex and pretend that mile skoda octavia got stolen
Model s performance
Yes, everyone needs to drive an SUV to dramatically increase your chances of rolling over in much less severe collisions. Had Jack been driving an SUV, that Royal Mail lorry could have caused it to roll and had him hospitalised instead of walk away from the collision. Boot space is more practical in an estate, height is just as good in an estate (the boot floor gets raised with the roof in all softroaders), height of the ground is lower with an estate, better for the dog to get in and out. If the roofline of an estate isn't enough for your dog then it needs a van or horse box, as the space needs to increase length and width wise as well as the dogs get bigger. Estates are better on fuel, have better performance and are cheaper for equivalent spec. They're also less expensive to buy tyres for alongside other wear items due to the lack of extra weight that comes with SUVs. Dealerships will support everyone going to SUVs as they get thousands more when they're bought and hundreds more for every service while barely costing them anything extra to build (maybe a couple of hundred pound of steel, copper for wiring, and material for headlining, sound deadening, etc), every VAG softroader is just a jacked up Golf, yet how much more are you paying for their softroaders vs a Golf?
Don't trust carswithnoreservereading on eBay. They may have no reserve, but they have many many many fake bidders putting the prices up to what they want. Check out their feedback. You'll see loads of different 'buyers' giving them good feedback on cars they have then relisted.
A lot of those new shiny works vans are on hire purchase, which can work out cheaper than keeping an old banger on the road especially when you consider lost work as a result of vehicle breakdowns. The modified ones, however... Less likely. They're the really good businessmen.
Strong Cartman from South Park energy from Alex's 'unpopular opinions' intro
Where were the pictures for the crash?
Okay, in general, modified vans are a bit weird most of the time. However, I know someone who had a 90s VW Caddy that he fitted with a bigger engine, turbo, race interior and had properly lowered to only just above the road (but still driveable). Just for how unlogical it was to do that to an old Caddy, it was awesome 🔥
Literally LOL at the line at the end. Thank you so much for the podcast, lads. Brightens my day.
Mine too, I'm a lady petrol head 😎 always been car mad since birth, I listen and watch these guys so much now since my hubby told me about them 😎
Get well soon Ethan
Alex the cx5 is the same size as a Mazda 3 just on stilts
And I got told that by someone that works at MAZDA
I'm a bricky and have a 2020 Ford Connect MS-RT. There is nothing wrong with having a nice van. I drive my van 90% of the time. Why would I want to drive a crap van? I need my van for work so I need a reliable one. I'm a car enthusiasts. I also agree with Jack. Turning up to a job in a nice taken care of van shows you will take care and pride in your work. I also have a fiesta st and Hyundai i30N (my wife uses for work) for the other 10% of the time. Is there anything wrong with that or should I have a rust bucket of a car as well? Also enjoying the podcast. Keep up the good work guys 👍🏻
Sorry Jack I really think you should do you cbt. But I am with you on the estate not suv
Wheel talk was getting interesting at load ratings.. do wheels have that? Is it likely some vans are rolling on unsuitable wheels?
50:15 these last couple of minutes almost earned you a thumbs down! SUV.....seriously? It’s definitely not an age thing, it’s a ‘I’ve given up on life’ thing. This can’t be happening, my favourite car channel is moving to the dark side. These are the things that the ‘turn engine on and brain off’ plebs drive. Please let this be a bad dream. 😩
People speeding up when you overtake them is even more infuriating when you're in a truck. Cruising at 56mph on the speed limiter, getting halfway past a car only for them to either match your speed or slowly crawl up the inside of you. Absolute fucking pricks.
next pdcast a lil story of how all you guys met and got onto carthrottle
Just give it to me shut up haha
doug demuro just bought the new defender.
SUV's are just a better way to give your dog a Hernia.
To link to the Peugeot 107 issue, a common issue is the throttle body cable coming loose and the seal being worn. so when you rev it'll rev up but as soon as throttle is closed it will choke the engine and kill. Potentially a reason? Hopefully that helps whoever's issue it was.
CBT = Cock Ball Torture.
Estate > SUV
23:40 ur welcome
To the guy deciding between the two golfs. Stay with the MK5 R32, its a great car, modern classic which have great engine you are and will not be able to buy any longer even in bigger cars. - Its very practical - Its very comfortable - Plenty of mods on the market - Great engine - 4x4 Just stay with what you have, the old cars are nice to look at but hell to drive.
Speaking of load rated wheels, I know someone that got fined for running alloy wheels and ordinary car tyres on a transit connect.
