Sold as Seen Ep 5 - Ask Us Some Questions Thread

We're getting ready to record the next episode of the Sold as Seen Podcast.

No guests in Episode 5 so it will just be us.... or well it was planned to be just us, but a few members may manage to sneak on for a few minutes!

With that in mind, if there are any questions you have for us or suggestions let us know in here and we'll give them our worst effort.

Thanks again for the support and kind words about the show, it keeps us going for sure!

Cheers
Andy

Yeah I have one.

WTF is going on with the used car market?

Also what do you prefer the F80 M3 or the F82 M4? Sneaky way to help me decide which one I want to buy

 

[quattro Rick]

Full spec sheet read out for the Yaris I'm sure the boys would love hearing more about it.

Best and worst cars each one of you have owned, and then same again for cars you've not owned but have driven.

RMS is approaching its 20th birthday. Did you ever believe it would last this long, what do you think makes RMS forum activity stay strong while majority of others both local and national have disappeared over the years as social media became mainstream.

Where do you see it in another 20yrs

 

[gpaevo]

Wasn't there a thread a while back 'tell us about you' type thing? Why not get some of the members on for a Q&A session

 

[Rocko]

That'll come, we've a large list to work through but we're just after motoring questions, or any other crap you want to know.

I'm pretty famous, bound to be a 3-4 full episodes to do on me alone!

 

[Big Pimp]

Is Rupert still in the dungeon?

 

[Rocko]

LOL, I'll ask that one and hopefully won't end up there myself.

 

[Eager]

I suggested a few questions before but not sure if they got air ? Think one was where is the car scene going or what does your average younger generation car nut get up to, we don’t really seem to attract them onto the forum. When I first viewed here there was R plate pictures and queries about passing the test and stuff
Now we buy Porsche’s and talk about what wiper blades to buy. It’s got very disconnected at times and certainly nearly fully disconnected to any young drivers.

If you could make one modification popular again that has died out, what would it be?

 

[ALN]

What would you choose for a budget (sub £3k) modern classic?

 

[ALN]

Another one.

What is your favourite car advert from back in the day?

Always loved the old Renault ads and Honda The Cog for the Accord.

 

[gary1365]

I want to a pic of the focus with the triangles to see if it’s the same car I’m think of.

 

[Eddies]

Take a car you hate with a passion and try and pick several good points for why it may or may not sell to the general public. Its like creating an advert on something you hate but have to sell it on its merits.

 

[ALN]

@Rocko tell us what the daschunds have been up to. You can make this a section of the show and call it Really Mean Hounds

 

[Big Pimp]

Have there been any car mods which you carried out and look back and cringe on now?

 

[i30N_Paul]

I asked you about the i30 N performance DCT that i have on order down in Oz in a previous chat Cooper. Thoughts and if you think it is better than Focus ST, Golf GTI, and other mainstream Hot hatches (INCLUDING YOUR LITTLE WIND UP TOY YARIS GR ON ORDER)

Think it’s a different focus with triangles I was thinking of.

 

[Lyons]

There was more than 1?

 

[Rocko]

Is it Andy Kerrs Fiesta you're thinking of?

Me, @Graham , @Cooper, Holden and @pedenjohn in the background there.

Some great questions there, plenty for us to get stuck into but keep them coming.

 

[gpaevo]

Few prime for the sniff thread there

 

[Rocko]

My hair for one.

 

[TheDaniel]

What I would like to hear is a discussion about some of the members cars. .. One of my favourite threads would be @stuartybap R32 build. What a machine!

Some really awesome, detailed threads on here that make for some good reading material... might make a good topic of discussion?

I think the one I’m thinking on was purple and green I can’t remember there was that many cars.
