Why Now Is The Best Time To Buy Cars 

The fact that you don't hoist the sofa up and down on the lift during the episode is frankly criminal

Love the podcast but it would be great if you could put pictures up of the cars your talking about to add more context to the video. Like just a pic of the aston DBS above ypur head while your talking about it pls

Very enjoyable and funny episode. My only suggestion would be showing pictures of some of the cars you talk about especially like the Toyota as some of us don’t really know what they look like. But amazing episode and keep the good work going 👍🏼

my new fav podcast, a few pictures on screen would go a long way tho

@Two Dead Center I was about to put my Toyota Starlet Glanza V up for sale and hearing them talk about winning a prize for finding a 'not badly' modified one made me think of mine straight away. It's entirely standard apart from a Fujitsubo Legalis R exhaust system, Blitz Damper ZZ-R coilovers and some aftermarket wheels. I will include the original exhaust/suspension as well as some other spare and aftermarket parts I've collected for it in the sale. Let me know if your interested Edwin!

The Ninky Nonk can also transport Makka Pakka, the 10 Pontypines and the 10 Wattingers. Also Iggle Piggle has both his own carriage and a seat in Uppsy Daisy's carriage. Therefore there are seats for at least 27 by my count on the Ninky Nonk. The scale of the Ninky Nonk is another question entirely: despite it being able to carry all of the characters it is also seen in other segments to be smaller than Makka Pakka, the Tomleyboos, Iggle Piggle and Uppsy Daisy.

21 years old and bought myself a cheap 1979 MGB GT 1.8. I know any cheap MG doesn't sound like a good idea but this one is structurally sound. This will be a good learning curve for me to work on cars and fully restore her to her former glory. So many classic cars have dropped in value and will rise again in the future

Got to fulfill a car dream this week as I bought my first rally car. Been a goal of mine for years now, hoping to do some rallies in Ireland next year. Would love to see ye do some more rally style content again

I like it when Ben gets involved with the videos, I think we all know they are there so why not bring them in :)

Lad Bible facebook page blocked me! I pointed out a glaring mistake that was downright dangerously misleading in their 'article', it was the top liked comment and they blocked me for it! Who said journalism was dead?!

To be honest, autoalex and TDC is the TopGear of the new generation. Is it still the same formula and magic about some normal dudes with incredible amounts of charisma and funniness, that are screwing around with some old ordinary cars.

I bought 3 sets of wheels for my last car, and I loved the last set so much that I deliberately chose my next car based on if the wheels would fit and if they'd look good. Wheels are extremely important. For reference it was a black MX5, bronze OZ Ultraleggeras, and the replacement is an Arctic blue Clio 182.

Back in the day, my friends bullied me into manual swapping my JZZ30 Toyota Soarer with the 1JZ.. I didn't hate the auto, but the Getrag 6 Speed I was bullied into putting in, is much, much better haha.

That argument against lighter wheels not being noticeable; it can be a massive difference if you have heavy OEM wheels and lighter alternatives fitted to a car. The most common R53 mini wheel is 11.4kg, and the most common aftermarket Team Dynamics 1.2 is about 8kg. On a track day, I reckon that weight saving alone would shave precious seconds off each lap when compared to stock, and might even be comparable to adding bolt on performance mods. It's a bit science-y, but could be an interesting video or concept for videos where you modify cars for a challenge. Really enjoying all the content you're putting out recently!

Cars in movies. You should make reaction videos of that. Lot's of fun details. I once saw a Tesla cranking the engine, and revving its interal combustion engine engine. Hilarious.

46:57 Judge Judy and Executioner?!

To be fair to Ground Force, a fair portion of the attraction to a certain slice of society was Charlie Dimmock and a definite lack of undergarments. Also, I watched the TV show Ashes to Ashes almost exclusively to see them hooning around an an absolutely mint red Audi Quattro driven by Gene Hunt 😊

The Avro Vulcan was the Second V bomber built for the RAF during the Cold War, It had a Delta wing, ank could carry a Nuke or conventional Bombs.

Love the pod lads, keep up the good work

I work for a Toyota dealer and we can service two GR Yaris in a day. I would say we do maybe four or five regular Yaris a day. Considering the GR has a service interval of 6k miles not 10, that means there's fucking loads of GR Yaris about.

I’m with Edwin on the wheel thing. My last car was a mk5 golf gti which I owned for about 5 months and fitted 5 different sets of wheels to it because I couldn’t make my mind up about which ones I liked best 😅 I had a vw caddy work van that I fitted a set of £1000 3sdm wheels to because I liked the wheels a lot and didn’t have a project car at the time 😂 and then because I was so worried about ruining those I fitted a set of banded steels to it which kept cracking. So I fitted some scirocco turbines and didn’t like them so I fitted some 19” Audi speedline split rims on it 😅 I’ve owned over 150 cars in the 17 years I’ve been driving and the vast majority of them have had multiple wheel changes

Av got a 2016 Scooby STI and a GR yaris, and let me tell you, the GR is a little Rocket! 🧡🧡🧡 Them both but the road tax on the STI is getting absolutely ridiculous now!!😢

In the 50s and 60s there were the V Bombers which all carried nuclear bomb, Valiant, Victor and Vulcan. Vulcans were flown non-stop down to the Falklands to bomb the runway at Port Stanley during the small disagreement with Argentina in the 80s. Top Gear actual started as a music program in the 1960s (this before Radio 1 existed, think more Old Grey Whistle test than TOTP) Presenters included the likes of John Peel, it lasted a year, the Motoring version started in 1977 with Angela Ripon, who is still presenting on the BBC

With those Nike Cortez trainers, that channel should be Top Dead Creps. Love you guys x

11:42, the US did actually get the 2nd generation Starlet in the early 80s

@18:32 Arnage is the name of a small village, SW of Le Mans. There is a corner on the 24hr circuit named after the village. the car is named after the corner.

hey guys can you post the podcast on youtube music please :) keep the good job loving the content

Haha the Gallardo Nera you refer to after 7 mins I was the one who bought it 😁

Def my new fav podcast 😂

ID LIKE CARS TO BE A BIT CHEAPER PLS 😂 saw a few online which are cheap but seriously dodgy

I used to work for a company that supplied movie cars! The secret is that for every one producer that cares about what they get, 30 don't give a shit and will pick off color more than anything. Let me know if you have any other questions! 39:37

"Oh were not experts" "please hire us for consultations"

This episode was great! Subscribed on the podcaster app on Iphone❤️

Just bought 2 other cars but selling a motorcycle so Im experiencing the market from both ends 😆 Will looks like the typical focus st owner btw. ✌️

I check to make sure the car models/regs are period appropriate for the year in which a film was set.

Well I listened to it already but now I guess I watch as well!

for the forum, where do you put your jack when you want to jack it up from the front or the back from the car?

Mazda 323 zxi 2.0 v6 - Wish I could find one. I loved mine back in 1999.

About 12 or 13 years ago I bought a set of 18 inch Alpinas for 700 or 800€ I think it was. The seller took them off his e31 and we fitted them onto my e38. When I sold my e38, I sold it with the original set of wheels. I traded the set of Alpinas for a e39 touring. Are you guys trying to tell me they'd be worth 5k now? 😬

I am in the same EXACT pin-point focused and zoned-in automotive autism (best way to put it) of into anything and everything to do with cars. The addiction is REAL, the only thing stopping me from having a yard full of cars and parts is my wallet 😓

Best time to buy a car. I had no choice but to buy a car 2 years ago during that time when they went crazy expensive. Really was bad luck with the timing.

"Ioniq" sounds like a brand of electric toothbrush haha

The vulkan was a british long range bomber used for the nuclear deterant before they were scrapped they were used in the falklands war.

I feel some appreciation of Rory that they aren't traveling over 100 miles on £5 is being shown

my stepdad was a vauxhall fanatic, had like 5 cavs (2 turbos, one sri and 2 1.4 shit boxes) and like 3 calibras, one being the 4x4 turbo. used to go the vauxhall shows when i was younger. he also had a nova where the floor was missing. good times, except he was a twat but oh well

come on, guys, give us some inserts of the cars, would really love to see the Aston, for example..

Interesting about cars in films/tv etc…every single film or tv show I watch has some form of Volvo in it, usually an old estate and I can’t help but say to my girlfriend “it’s always a Volvo” and she sighs…

You were saying about your Oxford green e46 m3 you wouldn't sell for 100k...there's a convertible one with tan leather for 2ok on autotrader..make it a pair 😉

A Wu tang/cars hybrid wasn't something I thought I ever wanted,

Council estates is my new favourite measure of weight

great content you guys keep it up

The both of you and Chris Harris would be a show worth watching

Would an electric horse not be a mobility scooter?

The GR Yaris is the new limited edition corsa D 😂

On a movie related note: Do you think that the 1967 4 door Chevy Impala was the right choice for Supernatural? For me it was a perfect match, but now I want to know if I'm the only one

Did you get the V6 Clio?

As a youth I was in the back of Glanza and realised my friend was a drug dealer at the time we where pulled over by the police 😂

Check out the new Top Gear Australia. BBC film crew and producers involved. Has issues with the cast having not yet gelled and the guest interviews are terrible. Also has a few obvious copies of OGTG stunts. Best thing about it, Moog from MCM

Inflation has dropped to 1.7% for a reason. Everyone has been tightening their belts for a long time. High interest rates will do that. People are not buying motors if they don't need to.

I beg you guys make that zafira on par with the Renault Espace F1 aero wise that would be a amazingly stupid and cool

39:45 Charli XCX always has left-field cars in her music videos

arnage is the little town just next to the le mans circuit

Yeah, £30k for a GR Yaris sounds expensive, but just to put into perspective, the relative bargain of a 94 Subaru Impreza 2000 Turbo would be £45k today accounting for inflation. That is ironically about what a MK2 GR Yaris costs now, yep, a new one is now £45k, or £60k if you want the very limited special editions. Anyway to the Starlet, I expect we aren't going to get a lot of change out of £30k on it. It's sad, because the £6k econobox of my youth is now a £14k vehicle. Even the days of the £18k GT86 are long long gone as well (the GR86 started at £30k). The only advantage with the Starlet is they need to sell 25k of them to take them rallying, so maybe they'll be a little cheaper for the first ones. Honestly, I expect something in the £27-29k range. i20n money.

I started watching this, then realised I’d already listened to it on Podcasts… 😅

What's your problem with Swindon???.....

Ok, i've got a question i have been struggling with for a while and this is my chance to get THE ANSWER. What in the wizarding world is going on in torque converter? I do undestand how manual trasmission work, but automaticts with torque converter what the hell does oil do in them? How does it transfer power??

Went to Cowley factory on yammaha Rd 400 and got chased out of Oxford and went round Honda factory in xjs v12 dropped off painter on Sunday morning lal 💜🙏💜🧙‍♂️

New series called Sweetpea, the slightly thick boyfriend has a lovely Impreza P1 - someone knows

Why are tyre widths metric and the hole diameter imperial? still. and why is the only company the did fully metric wheels and tyres Austin?

First time I drove on road my mate rang me to pick him up drove his mini through Austin Martin factory in dark lol lal💜🙏💜🧙‍♂️

Wonder if it’s a British thing that cars are cheaper now. Where I live it’s the opposite. An example. I bought a three year old Subaru 5 years ago. I sold it back to the same dealer. They are now selling it as an 8 year old Subaru for $1000 more than it was for me. Ooooof

i dont want to race that zafira anymore, cheers

I'd love to see you both buy each other cars you both like that the other doesn't

With the Cadillac guys, you should do a video on how many people can get in it. You never know, there could be a Guinness World Record in it somewhere. Car names: being an Aussie we do have some cool car names. You already know the Monaro but we also had the Holden Torana (the original based off a HB Vauxhall Viva. Torana in the aboriginal language means: To Fly) & the Holden Camira (based off the Vauxhall Cavalier) but was a bit of a shit car that was built here. LadBible: They keep regurgitating the same articles every month and use AI to rewrite regurgitated "Articles" I remember seeing the article where you guys are mentioned & I pissed myself laughing. They must have ran the episode through AI to create their article! Have you guys thought about doing rallycross? Cheap bangers on a racing circuit. Might be worth a few episodes? Top Gear has been resurrected as Top Gear Australia with Australian presenters with the TG UK production crew. If others have watched this series, might be time to offer thoughts on it. Great podcast & as others have said, add pics of the cars you're talking about. It gives us context or the car could be branded as something else in the world.

Well I’ve read the title and now I will get lost in an endless pit of marketplace shitboxes

What do you guys think of modified Lorries eg trucker Tim’s.

Loved it.

Don't think it's gonna happen boys, I think we've experienced peak cars. Once it's been made it too expensive for anyone to own a car, the scene is largely dead. Real car people don't care about electric. Enjoy it while it lasts, own that v8 now.

RU-vid is just what everyone watches now. Nobody really watches live TV. Never go to live TV. Keep going with RU-vid. You'll get bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger. You guys agree.

WHY IS THE SOFA NOT ON THE HOIST RIGHT NOW 😂

As a electrician.can you please for the love of God get that cable moved on the back wall.. There is a perfectly good 50mm trunking directly above it ffs

Buy my track prepped Ford puma on marketplace then 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Was bottom dead center not available for this channel name?

I am concerned about the little Peugeot Key West, is it gone?

Aston should call their next car the Velcro.

It upsets me this channel isn’t called Not Dead Centre, or Bottom Dead Centre

Kind of jealous how easy to buy a car in the U.K compared to Ireland. Similar market, twice the price !

When will the podcasts be available on different listening platforms? 🎧🙌🏾

Lambo Gallardo on Matthewsons for 30 - 35k estimate

I'll be a guest if you're in need of one 😂

You can't really beat a Murican car name. Something that sounds like Super Venom Hellcat - Demon edition. They're just a bit... childish.

Interceptor is the best car name. Done.

Why are cars in the UK so goddam cheap? Meanwhile, in Europe...

The zafira is going to rival the f1 espace

BET YOU DONT BANGER RACE THE CADILLAC!!!

Ferarri Mee-cro-warvay

Please get the clio v6 !!!!!!!

Can you m57 swap into a Nissan patrol

When electric appliance on wheels bubble bursts, and real cars come back, the Top Gear will return as well.

Guys hit me up if you still have nobody to guest next week. I'm a random person but I can also be a guest.
