    Good evening everyone! Hope you’ve all had a good week.
    I unexpectedly picked up my new Renault 5 last Saturday, it was ready earlier than expected! I was the second person in my local area to get their car. And what a fantastic car it is, I’m really pleased with it.

    Far better going manual on your driving test as you can drive either manual or automatic. Go automatic and you’re restricted to automatic. Keep your options open.

    Pass a manual licence then when you get the chance to use a classic manual car you can

      And do it now – because in a few years the driving instructors won’t be able to buy manual cars to teach you how to drive one.

    With a decreasing number of manual licenses it will kill the current classic car market over the next 30-40 years

    Having the “learn manual or automatic” convo with my 18 & 20 year olds, who haven’t started learning yet.

    Going auto is pragmatic for day-to-day driving, but rules out certain job options like delivery drivers

      I don’t think it will happen in the next 5 years but beyond that I’m pretty sure that delivery vans will be mostly electric. Fleet managers care about the bottom line and EVs will be cheaper to run and by then probably close in price to the internal combustion versions. Provided the charging infrastructure improves that is. I could be very wrong of course.

    100% agree, the R5 Turbo should be something we actually see on the road, a desirable but affordable car, not something that could end up with collectors only.

    The Turbo 2 launched in 1978 for a price of £13000 ish, If you wack that into and inflation calculator it comes back at an equivalent value today of £95000. If they want it to have the same impact as the original did. It has to have something special about it or else it is just another car so a price premium is inevitable.

    Imagine:- you have just invented the idea of a motor car and you want to market it. You could produce a petrol engined car that has a noisy engine that produces power in a small speed band that needs a complicated system of pedals and gears to put that limited power band onto the road. A system that needs special training and practice , and an increasingly complicated gearbox .
    Along comes another inventor, he has an idea of a power transmission system in which the power put in one end is automatically dealt with so that power to the road is smooth and simple to apply. No need for special training, just a simple use of a pedal to make the motor car go.
    A third inventor comes along. He has the idea of using a battery electric motor with sophisticated electronic controls which will simplify even further driving the motor car , and great future possibilities.
    Which system has the best future ? Which would you build n 2025?
    I have driven all three types , over many years, ICE Manual, ICE Automatic and Battery Electric. For me even ICE Auto is retrograde.

      The only thing is…all that happened at the time. Electric motor drive was pioneered by Lohner but the batteries were simply hopeless and had very little range so interest quickly wained. Gearboxes in various designs were tried but only the simplicity of a box of cogs in oil that could be changed got cars moving and accepted by the new owners. The inventor opined that…”It is crude but it works and will do until I can think of something else”. Now…120+ years later….it is disappearing fast as that gear ratio changing required by an ICE engine now has been evolved into the automatic transmission we know today. 🙂🙂🙂

    I couldn’t agree more about the sad demise of the manual box even in lower powered cars, I like to be involved in the drive and get pleasure out of keeping the engine in the sweet spot and changing when I want not the car.

    The other problem is young drivers are being taught in automatic cars more so there is not the future demand there.

    My sons just passed his test bought him a new 1.0L Clio he really couldn’t be bothered with a manual but insurance put a stop to that as an auto has way too much power makes it way more expensive!

    Agree with you on Verstappen, his pig headedness is his superpower, but when it’s dialled up to 10, it’s also his Achilles heel.

    Congratulations, Peter, on finally getting the car you always wanted a 911.
    After virtually watching and enjoying all of your content on YouTube over the year’s, you have certainly put the work in, and at times, it really must not have been that easy sometimes. I really hope its all that you hoped for.
    Can’t wait to see it. 👍
