Speaker 2 (00:04):
Welcome to the.
Speaker 3 (00:05):
First part of the Cherry, the first podcast to see
the Sign, the first to seeing a new day.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Of the day of our Lord. The thirtieth of June
twenty twenty sixth, the last day of June's getting up
that on the swift feeling oh yes please yeah, because.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Of course it was going for his wife. Yeah, failed
its wife. Jud just signed rust on the boat. If
there's rust on the boat that stamped down below, you've
always said and you you took it to go and
see someone got the rust on.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
The boat about to Yeah, and yesterday I did.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
And we were talking about what what what's your number?
When when you know you've got a car that's essentially
impallid of care, it's at the end, it's at the
end of its lime. I'm just trying to make it
as comfortable as I can for the last couple of ws.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
That's that frames it in a very interesting way.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
So I took it in and just said to the guy, hey, mate, look,
this is where we're at.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
You know, just just keep voice downs, just out there.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
It's on morphine, I can't hear anything. Well, it's still
got its words about it.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
You know, it's got moments of lucidity, and well it does.
But you know again there are moments and when it
has those moments its great. Does it forget my phone
every time I trum period of this there? Yeah, but
that's fine, that's how swift.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
And we love it.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
But no, Yeah, I took it on an you're going
to come look at it, and.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
He said, just shows the shows the rust and he's like,
it was all that.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Yeah, you can just like if it's not rusted through,
the bastard and he had a look at it. He's like,
you can just bog over the top of it and
that will prevent the rust from spreading. It's once it's
rusted all the way through and then it's like structurally unsound.
So it's like, I don't know, it's like it's going
to be a few hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Hundred bucks. I caught it early.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Yeah, they've caught it. And this is why go and
get checked, doesn't it. This is what we were talking
about the other day, as if you're you know, if.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
You're a little bit worried about it, So did it
have blood in its post.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
It had a little blood. Blood, it's put what is
rust in the boot in a car?
Speaker 3 (02:11):
If not blood, Yeah, it's blood on the toilet paper.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
And you got it checked.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
I got it checks into the GP and they've had
a little colonoscopy there.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
And said, look, it's great you've done this because we've
caught it early enough, removed some polyps.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Yeah, I'm going to take a couple of polyps over
of it. Now.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Look beer in mind. They haven't actually done it yet.
They're going to do it today, so I might be
sitting back here tomorrow. Okay, Well they had another look.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
He must have intended just to put a pillow over
its face though, and and sort of do it fur Yeah,
fucking hours.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
But then I don't know. It's this thing of like
I've wanted.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
It to fail a off for so long, since the
point I've owned it for almost five years.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Now, the entire time we just wanted it to failow off.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Well, you've been trying to get it killed for some time.
I mean, you want it, you want me in here,
your one eye, I man here.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Have you considered the assisted dying?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I have, Yes, I have.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
I've looked into it. Unfortunately, it's got to sign off itself.
And I think I think this was that saying, hey,
look I've got one more in me at least, so.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
I don't know how to do not resuscitate order.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
I had put one on there, but again I don't
know when you're looking you know, how can you do
it when you're looking into it? Sad little eyes speaking
of it, sad little lies. One of the one of
the one of the lights, one of the headlights. That's
one of the reasons that failed on the headlights is
like looking after the side. And the other thing is
that the front right struts fucked from the sixteen speed
(03:42):
bumps that we have between the door and where I
parked the car and the parking building. And I told
the guys like, oh, we haven't it struts sixteen speed
bumps and its slowed down for any of them because
I wouldn't either.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
It was fair enough.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
And it's only on the right because I'm the only
person in the car and I sat on the front
right of the car. Oh really, it's leaning yeah, because
it's going to extra hundred and on that one stra
How many k is it done?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Again?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
One hundred and ninety oh, so that's only, and it's
that's only, and it's the middle infancy, yeah, middle age.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Really, yeah, one hundred percent.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
That's the thing, because I've seen them on trade me
because and immediately I stuck at all, right, what's this
thing with me? And then I had a quick click
on tradeing you get some of the some of them.
Some people want like five grand for those things. Don't
know about that. Don't know about that? Were you?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I mean, particularly now that I've told the whole world
has got rust in the boat?
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Yeah, four three five, yeah, three five three five half
for three five, a.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Lot of cameo.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
It's got a bloody sub of it under the past
banana skin in the back seat.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Now I'll throw that in for four I'll get around.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You get a low car for not much so much
my line. This is a swith but my god, she
goes good.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yeah. And the other thing was I was driving I
drive a mate out of the airport the other day.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
It's park in this one spot, and I watched two
cars try and park in it and then give up,
and then I just straight in there in this thing.
I mean, it's just the utility of this bastards.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Well, I can't get rid of it. It's too practical.
It's too practical. Are they still making Swift? So the
the wave flasher, now then I've got to have a.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Look at what I can't think of what they look
pretty similar, but yeah, just flasher on the inside. Yeah,
they've really kept the classic model there.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
They were like, they're like, you know, apparently commercial airliners
like airplanes in that they build them from the inside out.
So they designed the seat first and then they wrapped
the plane around it because they're trying to fit as
many people and as they can. I think that the
Suzuki Swift was designed that way as well. I think
they were like, we're going to design the front two
(05:49):
seats first and then.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
The rest of the cars can get wrapped around that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Well it's not a family vehicle, is it. No, it's
for oldies to get about. It's for an old retired
couple to get up and down to the shops, is
what it's for. And maybe Chucker Corgy in the backseat.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
So you've got the one point two Leader petrol mild
hybrid one point which delivers you sixty one KO lots
of talk power.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Which which will not get you up the ramp at
the Westfield Parking Lot.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Now you've got the cv you've got the five speed manual,
or you can get the CVT. Bootspace pricing starts at
look for brand new Suzuki Swift twenty four five three
thirty non nat but twenty four five three thirty reasonable
and you can go up to you can for the
full bells and muscles like everything. The Swift R or
whatever it's called, the racing version, the rs C thirty
(06:43):
thirty five hundred.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Thirty five hundred thirty five thousand.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Surely, Yeah, so that's the one point four turbo all
they thing and go like stink it and that little
light car one point four turbo. You wouldn't need it though,
would But man, they get some good reviews here.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Although as I've learned, Nihon unkillable, you're cockroach. So if
you bought one of those new because you know mine's
two thousand and eight, you buy one of those new
ones in twenty twenty six, well you're going to have
that forever. Yeah, you gotta be very careful when you're
buying one of these, you know it's not a toy
because you're going to have it for the rest of
your life?
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Are you willing to make that commitment?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
It's got four to four point three leaders per hundred kgs.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Now, that's that is efficient per hundred kgs.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
I just recently bought a Mare's a three to two
liter and it's six point nine.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Oh no, that's my four point three my car. I
lose my mind trying to remember the last time I've
fielded up. Every time it's honestly once a month, and
I'm driving back and forth to work every day and
out to the airport.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
That's that one point two letter of three cylinder? You what?
An engine from Suzuki.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
Cars are an interesting thing because you start your relationship
with the car and you're like fucking proud of it,
and you think, yeah, I can't wait for this thing
to go for either don't want to scratch it. Oh,
I don't want to scratch And then you get to
a point when you're like, it's scratched up. I just
wish the fucking thing would die and it won't.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Yeah, that's exactly where I'm at now.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
But you guys are talking from from good car purchase.
From a perspective of good car purchasing. I mean a
lot of people buy a secondhand European car and they go,
why is this Audi two thousand and four Audi so cheap?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
It's such a nice car. I always thought this when
this came out. I always thought these are nice.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
And then they get their first surfacing bill and everything
has to be fixed and it costs two six hundred
and eighty dollars and then they say, oh, by the way,
next time around, you guys, it's going to be even
more expensive. And you're like, how the I'll get rid
of this thing. So a lot of people, a lot
of people have bad, you know, buying car experiences. I
(08:55):
think you guys are just smart with your purchase. And
you know from experience of buying a car that's been
a bit of a lemon, yeah, that you don't that
there is nothing worse than a car that firstly doesn't work,
secondly costs you heaps every service.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
You end up hating that car. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
It doesn't matter what kind of car, it doesn't matter
how rich it makes you look from the outside. It's
bloody annoying when it breaks down.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Yeah, not and worse yeah no, no, one hundred per's
And that's the thing about driving an old car. Too,
Like I don't meant the swift like figging old Falcon
or Commodore, you know, Kingswood, something like that. That that
Falcon youth that we had today a sec and that
was forever in the shop getting fixed because it was
just so fucking old that like something will break every
(09:40):
single time.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Well, I don't understand why get.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Something break and something like that when there's just nothing
in those cars, like they are so low speak.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
Well, it's it's because there's like, for example, the cooling
systems basically rusted to ship. Yeah, so the hoses go
every six months because because they're just having rust run
through them.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Those are barely bilt non stop.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
And it's just yeah, and then the thing weighs about
two tons and so it's got to have a monster
of a straight six gay sex engine in there just
to overcome the weight.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
And they use a lot of gas. Oh my god,
ither thing that thing that was the one with Storm
Purpose on petrol get out there. Yeah, Storm Purpose's.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Eggermouth on the petrol gear are so hungry. Those old
cars from like twenty two thousand and like two or three.
The difference now between those cars and the efficiency in
a car as like monumental.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
So that's the other reason why I hate the swift
but I can't get rid of it is because.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Kerry and Mania joined the complate the Hidaki Breakfast discussion
group on Facebook. For more Jeremy Wells and Manaia Stewett
find them on Instagram at HODARKI Breakfast.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
Like I said, once a month maybe, and it's only
just got over one hundred bucks to fill. And in fact,
now that fuels come back down, it may have gone
back under again.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Oh see, that's quite I know.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
I know for all of these reasons, I but I
just want to get rid of it because you know,
I've talked to.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Greg Murphy about this.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
He won't remember this, but he was talking to his
son was going to buy a car, and he's gonna
buy this car or that car or whatever. And then
he was thinking to buy investing in Krypto instead with
the money and IRF was trying to obviously naturally talk
him out of that.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
And you're having a bit of an existential crisis as
a motorsport legend.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Yeah, He's like, why doesn't my son just want to
buy a sick like Mustang Broak? Not a Mustang's a
holding guy, but you know what, does he want to
buy a seck old car?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
And we were.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Talking to him about it and I said, well, yes,
crypto doesn't make my balls tangle look at it, but
a kingsword that does. And yeah, that's that's my issue
with the Swift.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
There is something about getting in a car and these
balls are tingling.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
She's looking forward to driving it.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
There is something about that and it definitely does give
you joy every time.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
Did you hear what jerisy about European manufactured cars, Zoey
and that.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Support you in?
Speaker 4 (12:03):
Can you explain why European cars needs so much up
keep money?
Speaker 2 (12:09):
It's only here, yes, but we are only here. Well
that's parts of service.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Actually the German ones are the least bad, but the
parts are expensive. But at least the engineering's got I mean,
get in a French cat, oh my god, or get
in a bloody Italian cat. Don't even buy a second
d Italian car like an Alpha or something like that, disaster.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
I'm just going to ask you if you've got a
name for the Swift, mainly for the reasons I know
what to call the podcast.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
No, No, It's been known by various It's been called
Taylor before Taylor.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
But I'm not a big naming a car kind of guys.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Are you know what you look like?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
I think you should be called Gwen. It's got a
Gwendoline Queen. She looks like Gwin. She's definitely a female.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
I don't know, but I don't know. I don't know Tanner.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
I don't say gender like meaning like Tennis. Dow's smith
like tennis meaning for minutes. I mean, it's Suzie if
it's anything.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
But Susie Swift, Susie Swift. But I'm not one of
those guys. I think that's check ship. To be honest
with it. Don't give it a wee pain on the bank.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
When it makes it's.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
A hunger, rusty metal and rather and it gets me
for ready to be. I think some cars have personality.
I don't know if that one's one of them.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
You know, I think it's got a personality. Their car.
I've been in it.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
It's got a personality. I mean when you're driving in it.
People Definitely, it's a head turner for all the wrong reasons.
But it's a head turner.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
About someone's wing at the booths, someone's stolen Nanna's car.
This guy's bloody thieved it to be fair. I reckon,
well have been drive Swift.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Yeah, yeah, I just that. The other part of it
is that I've parked it in such a stealable spot
for years. Steal a SWIFTWT and it's manual too.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
They would that wouldn't had to drive, they would steal
it for a ram raid. I would say, we list
of those now. Yeah, because National put the boot cancer
a National came into power. What happened? Yeah? So what's
your dream car?
Speaker 5 (14:28):
Oh? Like a push?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Yeah? Did I see you in one of those? Actually?
Speaker 4 (14:34):
Yeah, I can to some like hectic euro techno music
blasting out of it.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Nah, maybe some house yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
I will say one of the funniest parts about going
to Germany was as soon as we got off the plane,
every single car on the road is Germany. And I
should have assumed that, like, of course it's going to
be you go to Japan, the cars of a Japanese.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I don't know why, but it really shocked the real
flesh around here. Look at all these flash German cars.
It's in Germany, in Germany. Then then other cars.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
We're all this is Zuki Swift in Japan. Yeah, it's
just because we don't make any cars. Yes, I suppose
to sus.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
All of the Actually, all the Texas have bloody Mercedes
over there, aren't they.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yeah yeah, yeah, all them. Every car is a Mercedes
or a BMW. It's no Pras, just no Japanese cars.
I do not like Jane all right racist.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Despite being allies in the war, you think that they
would be still the common enemies.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
They never really aligned on anything. Did they even talk? No,
it was it was a union of convenience, wasn't it
should yeah? Or should we been it? Should we been? This?
Speaker 4 (15:56):
This?
Speaker 2 (15:58):
That be there then the whole thing.

I got it checks into the GP and they've had
a little colonoscopy there.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
And said, look, it's great you've done this because we've
caught it early enough, removed some polyps.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Yeah, I'm going to take a couple of polyps over
of it. Now.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Look beer in mind. They haven't actually done it yet.

And it's only on the right because I'm the only
person in the car and I sat on the front
right of the car. Oh really, it's leaning yeah, because
it's going to extra hundred and on that one stra
How many k is it done?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Again?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
One hundred and ninety oh, so that's only, and it's
that's only, and it's the middle infancy, yeah, middle age.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Really, yeah, one hundred percent.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
That's the thing, because I've seen them on trade me
because and immediately I stuck at all, right, what's this
thing with me? And then I had a quick click
on tradeing you get some of the some of them.
Some people want like five grand for those things. Don't
know about that. Don't know about that? Were you?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I mean, particularly now that I've told the whole world
has got rust in the boat?
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Yeah, four three five, yeah, three five three five half
for three five, a.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Lot of cameo.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
It's got a bloody sub of it under the past
banana skin in the back seat.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Now I'll throw that in for four I'll get around.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You get a low car for not much so much
my line. This is a swith but my god, she
goes good.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yeah. And the other thing was I was driving I
drive a mate out of the airport the other day.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
It's park in this one spot, and I watched two
cars try and park in it and then give up,
and then I just straight in there in this thing.
I mean, it's just the utility of this bastards.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Well, I can't get rid of it. It's too practical.
It's too practical. Are they still making Swift? So the
the wave flasher, now then I've got to have a.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Look at what I can't think of what they look
pretty similar, but yeah, just flasher on the inside. Yeah,
they've really kept the classic model there.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
They were like, they're like, you know, apparently commercial airliners
like airplanes in that they build them from the inside out.
So they designed the seat first and then they wrapped
the plane around it because they're trying to fit as
many people and as they can. I think that the
Suzuki Swift was designed that way as well. I think
they were like, we're going to design the front two
(05:49):
seats first and then.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
The rest of the cars can get wrapped around that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Well it's not a family vehicle, is it. No, it's
for oldies to get about. It's for an old retired
couple to get up and down to the shops, is
what it's for. And maybe Chucker Corgy in the backseat.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
So you've got the one point two Leader petrol mild
hybrid one point which delivers you sixty one KO lots
of talk power.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Which which will not get you up the ramp at
the Westfield Parking Lot.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Now you've got the cv you've got the five speed manual,
or you can get the CVT. Bootspace pricing starts at
look for brand new Suzuki Swift twenty four five three
thirty non nat but twenty four five three thirty reasonable
and you can go up to you can for the
full bells and muscles like everything. The Swift R or
whatever it's called, the racing version, the rs C thirty
(06:43):
thirty five hundred.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Thirty five hundred thirty five thousand.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Surely, Yeah, so that's the one point four turbo all
they thing and go like stink it and that little
light car one point four turbo. You wouldn't need it though,
would But man, they get some good reviews here.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Although as I've learned, Nihon unkillable, you're cockroach. So if
you bought one of those new because you know mine's
two thousand and eight, you buy one of those new
ones in twenty twenty six, well you're going to have
that forever. Yeah, you gotta be very careful when you're
buying one of these, you know it's not a toy
because you're going to have it for the rest of
your life?
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Are you willing to make that commitment?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
It's got four to four point three leaders per hundred kgs.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Now, that's that is efficient per hundred kgs.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
I just recently bought a Mare's a three to two
liter and it's six point nine.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Oh no, that's my four point three my car. I
lose my mind trying to remember the last time I've
fielded up. Every time it's honestly once a month, and
I'm driving back and forth to work every day and
out to the airport.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
That's that one point two letter of three cylinder? You what?
An engine from Suzuki.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
Cars are an interesting thing because you start your relationship
with the car and you're like fucking proud of it,
and you think, yeah, I can't wait for this thing
to go for either don't want to scratch it. Oh,
I don't want to scratch And then you get to
a point when you're like, it's scratched up. I just
wish the fucking thing would die and it won't.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Yeah, that's exactly where I'm at now.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
But you guys are talking from from good car purchase.
From a perspective of good car purchasing. I mean a
lot of people buy a secondhand European car and they go,
why is this Audi two thousand and four Audi so cheap?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
It's such a nice car. I always thought this when
this came out. I always thought these are nice.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
And then they get their first surfacing bill and everything
has to be fixed and it costs two six hundred
and eighty dollars and then they say, oh, by the way,
next time around, you guys, it's going to be even
more expensive. And you're like, how the I'll get rid
of this thing. So a lot of people, a lot
of people have bad, you know, buying car experiences. I
(08:55):
think you guys are just smart with your purchase. And
you know from experience of buying a car that's been
a bit of a lemon, yeah, that you don't that
there is nothing worse than a car that firstly doesn't work,
secondly costs you heaps every service.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
You end up hating that car. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
It doesn't matter what kind of car, it doesn't matter
how rich it makes you look from the outside. It's
bloody annoying when it breaks down.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Yeah, not and worse yeah no, no, one hundred per's
And that's the thing about driving an old car. Too,
Like I don't meant the swift like figging old Falcon
or Commodore, you know, Kingswood, something like that. That that
Falcon youth that we had today a sec and that
was forever in the shop getting fixed because it was
just so fucking old that like something will break every
(09:40):
single time.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Well, I don't understand why get.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Something break and something like that when there's just nothing
in those cars, like they are so low speak.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
Well, it's it's because there's like, for example, the cooling
systems basically rusted to ship. Yeah, so the hoses go
every six months because because they're just having rust run
through them.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Those are barely bilt non stop.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
And it's just yeah, and then the thing weighs about
two tons and so it's got to have a monster
of a straight six gay sex engine in there just
to overcome the weight.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
And they use a lot of gas. Oh my god,
ither thing that thing that was the one with Storm
Purpose on petrol get out there. Yeah, Storm Purpose's.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Eggermouth on the petrol gear are so hungry. Those old
cars from like twenty two thousand and like two or three.
The difference now between those cars and the efficiency in
a car as like monumental.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
So that's the other reason why I hate the swift
but I can't get rid of it is because.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Kerry and Mania joined the complate the Hidaki Breakfast discussion
group on Facebook. For more Jeremy Wells and Manaia Stewett
find them on Instagram at HODARKI Breakfast.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
Like I said, once a month maybe, and it's only
just got over one hundred bucks to fill. And in fact,
now that fuels come back down, it may have gone
back under again.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Oh see, that's quite I know.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
I know for all of these reasons, I but I
just want to get rid of it because you know,
I've talked to.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Greg Murphy about this.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
He won't remember this, but he was talking to his
son was going to buy a car, and he's gonna
buy this car or that car or whatever. And then
he was thinking to buy investing in Krypto instead with
the money and IRF was trying to obviously naturally talk
him out of that.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
And you're having a bit of an existential crisis as
a motorsport legend.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Yeah, He's like, why doesn't my son just want to
buy a sick like Mustang Broak? Not a Mustang's a
holding guy, but you know what, does he want to
buy a seck old car?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
And we were.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Talking to him about it and I said, well, yes,
crypto doesn't make my balls tangle look at it, but
a kingsword that does. And yeah, that's that's my issue
with the Swift.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
There is something about getting in a car and these
balls are tingling.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
She's looking forward to driving it.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
There is something about that and it definitely does give
you joy every time.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
Did you hear what jerisy about European manufactured cars, Zoey
and that.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Support you in?
Speaker 4 (12:03):
Can you explain why European cars needs so much up
keep money?
Speaker 2 (12:09):
It's only here, yes, but we are only here. Well
that's parts of service.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Actually the German ones are the least bad, but the
parts are expensive. But at least the engineering's got I mean,
get in a French cat, oh my god, or get
in a bloody Italian cat. Don't even buy a second
d Italian car like an Alpha or something like that, disaster.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
I'm just going to ask you if you've got a
name for the Swift, mainly for the reasons I know
what to call the podcast.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
No, No, It's been known by various It's been called
Taylor before Taylor.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
But I'm not a big naming a car kind of guys.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Are you know what you look like?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
I think you should be called Gwen. It's got a
Gwendoline Queen. She looks like Gwin. She's definitely a female.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
I don't know, but I don't know. I don't know Tanner.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
I don't say gender like meaning like Tennis. Dow's smith
like tennis meaning for minutes. I mean, it's Suzie if
it's anything.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
But Susie Swift, Susie Swift. But I'm not one of
those guys. I think that's check ship. To be honest
with it. Don't give it a wee pain on the bank.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
When it makes it's.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
A hunger, rusty metal and rather and it gets me
for ready to be. I think some cars have personality.
I don't know if that one's one of them.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
You know, I think it's got a personality. Their car.
I've been in it.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
It's got a personality. I mean when you're driving in it.
People Definitely, it's a head turner for all the wrong reasons.
But it's a head turner.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
About someone's wing at the booths, someone's stolen Nanna's car.
This guy's bloody thieved it to be fair. I reckon,
well have been drive Swift.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Yeah, yeah, I just that. The other part of it
is that I've parked it in such a stealable spot
for years. Steal a SWIFTWT and it's manual too.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
They would that wouldn't had to drive, they would steal
it for a ram raid. I would say, we list
of those now. Yeah, because National put the boot cancer
a National came into power. What happened? Yeah? So what's
your dream car?
Speaker 5 (14:28):
Oh? Like a push?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Yeah? Did I see you in one of those? Actually?
Speaker 4 (14:34):
Yeah, I can to some like hectic euro techno music
blasting out of it.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Nah, maybe some house yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
I will say one of the funniest parts about going
to Germany was as soon as we got off the plane,
every single car on the road is Germany. And I
should have assumed that, like, of course it's going to
be you go to Japan, the cars of a Japanese.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I don't know why, but it really shocked the real
flesh around here. Look at all these flash German cars.
It's in Germany, in Germany. Then then other cars.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
We're all this is Zuki Swift in Japan. Yeah, it's
just because we don't make any cars. Yes, I suppose
to sus.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
All of the Actually, all the Texas have bloody Mercedes
over there, aren't they.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yeah yeah, yeah, all them. Every car is a Mercedes
or a BMW. It's no Pras, just no Japanese cars.
I do not like Jane all right racist.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Despite being allies in the war, you think that they
would be still the common enemies.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
They never really aligned on anything. Did they even talk? No,
it was it was a union of convenience, wasn't it
should yeah? Or should we been it? Should we been? This?
Speaker 4 (15:56):
This?
Speaker 2 (15:58):
That be there then the whole thing.
