James May gives me car advice + other random chat

Last week I jumped on a zoom call with Mr May to record a few question for a DriveTribe video about the discovery of Jeremy Clarkson's Lancia and James May's Mercedes from the Botswana special. Some of James' answers didn't make the final video so I thought I'd post them here with a few other bits of random chat from our call.

I almost bought a brand new car when I paid off my mortgage. Having had five years use from a Jeep Grand Cherokee that had cost me less than £1,500 to buy, service, and get through four MOT tests helped me to decide to buy a bigger house instead. I then moved to a house that had a private access road at the rear shared with about ten other houses, other than a few company cars the cars along that road looked like they'd been bought for one of the Top Gear cheap car challenges. Eight years later the Jeep was still going strong, despite being regularly driven around quarries when I worked at them, and I managed to pay off the small mortgage taken out to move to a bigger house. If you don't mind people thinking that you are a pauper because of the car that you drive it is better to put your money into your home.

Continue your craft, stay the course and fun cars will come down the line. Perhaps start your own reviews on cars. Manufacturers will give you one to use. 💡driving fun cars without buying them. Current review channels are boring IMO, everyone reinventing Chris Harris.
