Summary

Jonny's been having trouble with his own car and someone else's dog. Also in this episode, the great smell of Relentless Pursuit, that ridiculous Rich Energy understeer video, the E-Transit and MG3, an old money Range Rover Sport, an immaculate brick-shape Volvo S90, the carbon cost of keeping an older car going, a nightmare with locking wheelnuts, Sebastian Coe's favourite style of lorry, and is there something a bit off about Mickey Mouse?

1:07.4

meaning of. It's you and you're standing on a rooftop in Tokyo at night for no reason at all

1:13.9

with a castrel on your hand. Am I tossing car keys in the other hand? Yes. But staring into

1:20.1

the middle distance so I can't see that they're going to land in my hand or not. They might fall off.

1:24.7

Yeah, but you're so good. They hit that arm every time. But then for some reason you've got a

1:48.6

all around. Oh yeah. And I've got my hands aloft like a like the ring leader of a circus. Yeah
