| 0:10.0 | And by the way, if you want to get a couple of bonus shows in your podcast feed, |
| 0:14.9 | I'll definitely do one on some of the new cars that have been released at the Paris Motor Show. |
| 0:19.0 | So far, all the details that we were told about |
| 0:21.2 | them, and also the mighty M-G-Z-S has finally, finally got a price tag on it, and over at Richard |
| 0:28.9 | at R-Syman's r-S-EV.co.U.K. Under the spotlights of his glorious showroom, he's going to sell it |
| 0:34.6 | for me, and, you know, you can help people out with finance and |

| 1:22.3 | did 7.2 million. In Europe, we did about 2.2 million. USA in Canada, 1.3 million. That's a 10% share in |
| 1:30.7 | USA and Canada. First nine months of the year, by the way, that's pretty good. And I think, |
| 1:34.6 | more than happy to have 10% a new car sold in such a massive area that loves its combustion trucks |
| 1:40.3 | and stuff. It's fine. It's going to be a journey that we're on. That doesn't sound like a disaster to me. A record month in September, incredible. Stalantis and Renault over here talking |
