Episode 67: The new Jaaaaag Type 01

In this week's episode, Tim has got his hands on the brand, spanking new Vauxhall Astra Tourer, a car Ian has previously said he really likes the look of. So, will it live up to the hype or... not? Well, Tim seems to think it's all the car you could ever need, Ian on the other hand is less convinced. Let the bickering begin! Oh, and quick not... when the boys recorded this, they didn't have all of the information about the car and thought it was a top of the range "Ultimate" version... it wasn't, it was the base model "Griffin", which is £5,000 less than what they say it is in the episode. Also, the broken bit did fix itself... straight after they stopped recording. Typical!

In this episode of A Pint of Petrol, the boys are back in Tim's garage fixing the Calibra Turbo... again. This time, it's sprung a fuel leak... but neither car find out where from! To add to their woes, the battery has gone flat and jump pack decides to combust. Whilst on Tim's beloved Turbo. The boys also bicker over the latest news, including a new law which means you can't stand and drink in London, and the our least favourite orange man, who seems determined to implode the world, could have ruined classic cars forever. All positive then.

This week, Tim has gone to Ian's to fix - yep you guess it - another Land Rover. This one is Ian's mum's Disco and it's been in family since it was new. Many, many years have passed and now Ian is desperately trying to get it back on the road.In other news, Tim has been to the cinema to see one of his all time favourite films - the original Fast and the Furious - and he is going to (try to) convince Ian that is a great car film. Before it all went very, very silly, that is. Enjoy!

This week, the boys are ranting about the sheer amount of entitlement that is in the modern world. You see, Tim published a review of the new Mini John Cooper Works and, as you can expect from him, it was balanced, well produced and looked at both the good and the bad. However, it seems this video has upset the internet with many people taking to the comments. One of which thought it was appropriate to post "You are too fat and too short to be on YouTube". Wow. Meanwhile, Ian has had a similar experience with some smart nobody telling him that his Range Rover - which was bought new by his grandfather - was not an original colour and that "it's a shame it's not original". Riiiiiight... Why can't people just be nice?

In this week's episode of A Pint of Petrol, the boys are in Tim's garage fixing another one of his Calibras. This time, it's "Charlie-Four" which is leaking fuel. Will it be a simple fix or a total nightmare? Meanwhile, the boys debug the wealth of mis-information about the National Motor Museum and Beaulieu - and how every Tom, Dick and Harry has been jumping on the story and spreading mis-information to for clickbait. Time to sort both out.
