@MilkDrinker218
Жыл бұрын
Well yeah, a new car should smell good. If it doesn’t then you won’t enjoy it, meaning it’s a bad car and that you shouldn’t buy it. It is good to note though that the “new car smell” is actually slightly hazardous as it’s all the chemicals, carcinogens, and car juices coming off of the parts and pieces. Not really much to be worried about, same diff as like Aspartame in soda and radioactive potassium in Bananas.

@@smoketinytom No that worked out in court for a slightly different reason, they were doing a piece on the vehicle and making a joke about it, as part of their widely understood format of testing vehicles and making jokes. Whereas lying about how a company responded in the "factual survey" part of the show (these segments being what allowed Top Gear to be entered and win its infamous 'non-scripted entertainment Emmy' the criteria of which is 'any show primarily to entertain and inform'), and especially lying about giving them the chance to respond respectfully would have a much dimmer view taken of it.

However my 2 mates and my brother... of the 2 mates one was on his second engine constantly going through headgaskets, The other was on his third engine with a 400hp tune! My brothers RB5 had a stock-ish 250bhp tune and that was reliable, except the first 30 days he couldn't ever get it to start because of the aftermarket immobilisers and the shocks (which are unique to RB5s and expensive) were shagged because... impreza owners.

One Peugeot was run for 25 years until it was unsafely rusty, and the other was run for 10 years until the timing belt snapped because the man at the local garage said it didn't replace it, so no reliability issues there. One Citroen was run until is was written off in a crash after 12 years, the other is still running. The Matiz is still a great run-around. The Skoda was at the garage every 3-4 months with a multitude of issues.
