I'm Richard Porter. I'm Johnny Smith, and this is Smith and Smith, the podcasting with two friends talk about cars and many other things.

Right, before we get rock in a rolling on this one, I'm recording this in a different environment.

I'm on the drive of my parents in a Volkswagen T7 Multivan.

Which, so I do feel a bit like I'm in a local, I'm sort of a roving reporter for a local radio station about to go into a fate.

Or I'm outside a care home about to ask about the living conditions.

But the reason why I have to say this, tell everybody this is because this has been a great van.

It goes back tomorrow. I've had it for a week, and I have tested it before and reviewed it, and I do like it.

But this particular one has a haunted sliding door because it has a double sliding doors.

You know, it's got double sliding doors because of people carrier. They're both electric.

And when I do anything to do with the remote or the driver's door, the sliding door on one side just automatically opens.

It's like a really thick dog that goes and fetches a ball when nobody asked it to.

It goes and gets you things you didn't ask. So I open the boot right.

I open the boot to go and get something out and the left hand sliding door just opens.

Then I locked it the other night. I locked it outside my house the other night and it was on the road because it was too big for my drive.

I get woken up at 6.30 in the morning by a Scottish man walking a dog.

I was almost like a bollock naked. I came to the door wondering what was going on.

He said, is that your van out there? And I went, yeah, it goes.

You know that the sliding doors open and it's been raining all night. And I'm like, oh gosh.

So this has happened about six times.

And I don't know why I just can't work it out.

But so at any point in time, the door next to me, and this is the sound it makes, it beeps twice and then there we go.

Okay, so that's it opening, but I've told it to open there.
