Youtube comments of Module 79L (@module79l28).

  1. "Volkswagens never die, they only get lower. Or faster." Amen to that, Misha, amen to that! ๐Ÿ˜„
    1400
  2. The thing you need to realise, Ian, is that everyone who learns English as a second language is automatically bilingual. The fact that millions of people speak at least two languages might be surprising for US americans but for us non-native English speakers is kind of the minimum requirement. ๐Ÿ™‚
    1000
  3. Kinder eggs: illegal Kids handling guns: perfectly normal and accepted
    949
  4. 6:06 - The way the G-Wagon twists over to the right while stationary when Tommy floors it... ๐Ÿคฏ
    548
  5. When a turbocharged engine revs all the way to 8000rpm, you know it's a race-bred engine. ๐Ÿ™‚
    417
  6. 0:58 - It's not the quantity of sugar(s) that blew my mind, it's the 462mg of Sodium. It's almost 8x more than the european version!
    394
  7. "Visiting here would still be fun", they said... Tell that to the tourists who were held or detained at the airports, for reasons only the SS know. ๐Ÿ™„
    367
  8. 11:20 - Initially Seat made a Cupra version of several of its models, as the performance version, but then they decided to turn it into an actual brand.
    351
  9. Here in Portugal the Kona is called Kauai. Kona sounds exactly like "cona", which is one of the Portuguese slang words for the female genitalia. Once Hyundai knew about this, they immediately changed it because no way they'd sell it here with that name!
    268
  10. It looks like the guy who made the video didn't ask anyone and just assumed it was a solid sheet. ๐Ÿ˜…
    266
  11. Oh boy, Ian, the tuned diesel culture in Europe is not a rabbit hole, it's a freakin' tunnel! And I'm not even talking about the even crazier diesel drag racing scene!๐Ÿ˜„ The 1320 YT channel did a video in Santa Pod (UK) last year and the presenter looked so lost amongst the "sea" of unknown (for him) cars and models. As someone who knows about the heavy presence of portuguese drivers in the UK's drag racing scene, I found that video hilarious but entertaining at the same time. ๐Ÿ˜€
    256
  12. Lol, the speedometer insisting that Misha switched to MPH cracked me up everytime it showed up! ๐Ÿคฃ
    252
  13. Wow, the Slovak word for police (Polรญcia) is written exactly like in Portuguese! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ
    211
  14. 2:00 - They all sounded different because of this: - Audi: 2.1L turbo inline 5 - Peugeot 205 T16: 1.8L turbo inline 4 - Lancia 037: 2.0L supercharged inline 4 - Lancia Delta S4: 1.8L turbo + supercharged inline 4 - Renault 5 Turbo: 1.4L turbo inline 4 - Metro 6R4: 3.0 N/A V6 - Toyota Celica: 2.0L turbo inline 4 - Ford RS200: 1.8L turbo inline 4 - Opel Manta 400: 2.4L N/A inline 4 You can see that some have the same engine configuration but there were other differences that explain the different sounds of similar engines. 3:03 - The Opel Manta 400 was not that little, it was approximately the size of the Audi or the Toyota Celica (and this answers your 3:40 question). ๐Ÿ˜‰ 5:10 - Well, I can (two Rally Portugal "under my belt": 1984 and 1985) but the sounds, the smells and the whole experience is impossible to describe in words. Disclaimer: I still have all my fingers. ๐Ÿ˜„
    210
  15. Rear camera: "Hey wing, you're ruining my rear view!" Wing: "I'm a spoiler." ๐Ÿ˜„
    204
  16. What sounds better than a 5-cylinder engine? Two 5-cylinder engines! ๐Ÿ˜„
    198
  17. Recently I was watching a "US college students can't answer simple questions" type of video where one of the questions asked was where is Hawaii located. Everyone in the video said it was in North America, so I posted a comment saying "despite being a US state, Hawaii is not in North America, it's part of the sub-region of Polynesia, located in Oceania". The first reply I got was from someone I'm 100% sure was from the US because they wrote this: "Um, Hawaii is a U.S. state and the U.S. is in North America. Try again." ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚
    196
  18. Mat: "Lamborghini Rewaltow" Spaniards: angry, loud noises intensify tenfold
    178
  19. (7) Because they didn't want to spend money on the necessary changes to make them comply with EU emissions regulations.
    174
  20. The S4 didn't end Group B, it was Toivonen's accident that did it, he could've been driving any of the Group B cars at the time and still had the accident because there were more factors involved than simply the car. The end of the Group B started a few months earlier with Joaquim Santos' accident in Portugal, Henri and Sergio's death was just the last straw.
    173
  21. The way that thing pulls from 4000rpm and gains speed without feeling like it's pulling forward is mind boggling. If I wasn't seeing the speedometer I wouldn't believe it was going that fast. ๐Ÿคฏ
    173
  22. Even with a 120mph speed limit, that just shows how fast it got to it.
    164
  23. Let's see how many comments will be deleted after they read that, Misha.
    144
  24. The best thing about a standardised traffic signs' system, which the US refused to adhere to, is that I can drive all the way from Portugal to India without knowing many of the languages that exist on the way and still know what the traffic signs mean.
    134
  25. That's not a leak, it's called CSLS (Chassis Self-Lubricating System) and it's only installed in Rust Belt vehicles. ;D
    131
  26. I couldn't help it but to giggle everytime you said the car's model (and you said it a lot!) because Kona sounds exactly like "cona", which is one of the Portuguese slang words for the female genitalia. And in case you're wondering, yes Hyundai had to change the name of that model exclusively for the portuguese market because of that. Here it's called Kauai. Greetings from Portugal. ๐Ÿ™‚
    127
  27. But the million dollar question is: did you tighten the clamps on both sides of the MAF sensor when you finished the job, Ray? Because apparently you went on the test drive with them loose.
    119
  28. Can we take a moment to appreciate this very rational customer? Not only they decided to go ahead with a maintenance repair on this engine, they understand that if one bearing is kaput and the other one is starting to go bad it's better to replace both, that a leaking steering rack can't be fixed in the shop and it's best to be replaced (I guess by a remanufactured one, we shall see in the next video) but also that if the front tires are not ok and the rears are still good, why not swap them instead of spending money on new ones?
    111
  29. 2:32 - The plug you're pointing out is actually a "3-prong", the blades on the side are for the ground.
    100
  30. Ah, the nice Chewbacca noise that only the R32 and some Nissan V6s make... ๐Ÿ™‚ Edit: thanks to @audioamateur for the input.
    100
  31. +1, in every video.
    99
  32. Here in Portugal it's common to see farm owners or people who have properties in the countryside, still driving their 90's, 80's and even 70's Toyota Land Cruisers, Ian, and they're usually diesel, which makes them even more reliable and durable. I really feel for you guys in the US for not knowing what you missed out on.
    93
  33. Did you notice how long it took for them to react to Misha's overtake, even after being hit by a shower of debris and dust? Talk about having the spatial awareness of a cabbage! ๐Ÿ˜ 
    89
  34. This is from a TV show, that's why you get narration, different footage, more cameras and different angles that you normally won't see in the raw POV police chases you've reacted so far.
    89
  35. Portuguese here. You're confusing two things, Ian: tap water and bottled water. Only bottled water is paid, tap water is always free. Do they give bottled water for free in the US? Many people here go to a coffee shop or a bakery to have a coffee and a glass of water and that water is always free. However, only the bottled water that comes in closed containers is paid: there's a restaurant where I go 3 times a week for lunch in my city that has a machine to filter and better the tap water, so when I ask for water they bring me a glass bottle with a cap (that's supplied by the same company that supplies the machine) filled with water from that machine and that water is free. Those types of machines are everywhere, even in our Parliament.
    88
  36. The engine blur is there for the same reason they don't disclose the power and torque numbers in the videos: they're race cars.
    84
  37. 11:00 - That's the Sagrada Familia temple in Barcelona. The construction started in March 19, 1882 and it's still not finished yet. ๐Ÿ˜„ 11:13 - That's the Commerce Square in Lisbon. It's called that because it was where all the trading of goods brought by the ships took place, before it was destroyed by the 1775 earthquake. When the city was rebuilt they maintained the square in the same place and kept its name. ๐Ÿ™‚ 13:09 - What he means is that our lifts don't carry 4 people of his size but they have no problem fitting 4 average europeans.
    81
  38. The front fenders are originally made of plastic anyway. ๐Ÿ˜„
    76
  39. 2:40 - Fun Fact, Ian: that "little" Skoda has the mythical 5-cylinder engine and the Quattro transmission swap from an Audi RS3. 3:00 - If you want to know the insane power figures of that Golf you should react to some of Hillclimb Monsters' videos, that car is featured in almost all of them. Their videos usually consist of a top 10 or 15 cars from one class, so you'll know in what place they finished, and they always have lots of information about each car. This is a very good way for you to be acquainted with the vehicles that you're not familiar with, as well as with all the crazy stuff they do in terms of engines and transmissions. Plus, their videos are short and you can watch them without skipping around. In fact, I'm sure you'll be so captivated that you won't even think about doing it. ๐Ÿ˜€ 4:30 - It's the same Skoda from 2:40! ๐Ÿ™‚
    74
  40. Judging by the position of the oil drain bolt and the oil filter, it seems Dodge must have a big share in the biggest brake cleaner manufacturer.
    71
  41. ย @rayyan6515ย  - You're not expecting them to use a model that's not sold in Europe, are you?
    70
  42. 1:30 - Yes, I vote for that! Bring the Manta to the ring!
    68
  43. The one in the middle, everything else is a beer pouring sacrilege.
    67
  44. 1:33 - The water you see here is the Tagus River estuary, not very far from its mouth. The open area is called Commerce Square. Before the 1755 earthquake it was the place where spices, tea, slaves and all sorts of products coming from far away places were traded. After the reconstruction of the city it was modernised and all those yellow buildings surrounding it housed some of the government's ministeries. Nowadays they have trendy, touristy shops. 2:05 - This ambulance belongs to the National Institute of Medical Emergency (INEM in Portuguese), a branch of the Health Ministry dedicated to emergency transportation of sick or injured people. They're usually the first responders in emergency scenarios. 2:28 - The red ambulances belong to the Fire Departments, in this case the Ajuda FD (Ajuda is one of Lisbon's neighbourhoods). 6:13 -That's a Yamaha XJ 900. ๐Ÿ™‚ 6:48 - The INEM station wagon following the ambulance is called Resuscitation and Emercency Medical Vehicle (VMER in Portuguese) and its purpose is to quickly carry a medical team to the location where the patient is, for 1st aid, CPR or to stabilise the patient before the ambulance arrives. 7:10 - That's a tow truck from the Municipal Police, not the normal tow truck used for vehicle recovery (which are flat bed trucks here in Portugal). ๐Ÿ˜‰ There's another channel called rescue911.eu that has compilations of videos with lots of different emergency vehicles filmed in the Porto area. They're around 5 mins long, so no need to skip around. ๐Ÿ™‚
    65
  45. ย @rongill1967ย  - The S1 is a rally car, not a road car, its brakes are well above spec for rally stages, so you can't compare them.
    63
  46. 9:12 - I think that the person who didn't agree that Egypt was in Africa is in the Nile, Ian. See what I did here? ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜†
    62
  47. I gotta say that was the best thing in the whole video! ๐Ÿ˜‚
    61
  48. It's the "freedom" mindset, they think that it goes against their personal freedoms if the government imposes a mandatory annual inspection or starts putting limits to what vehicle owners can do to their vehicles.
    61
  49. 2:30 - Fun Fact: when Citrรถen launched this model (which we called "Arrastadeira" here in Portugal), there was rumour that they would give a fortune to whoever managed to flip it over because they were sure it was unflippable. That "challenge" was abandoned when someone found out that it could be done by reversing at full speed and then turn the wheels all the way to one side. ๐Ÿ˜„ 3:20 - Here in Portugal we lovingly call it "boca de sapo" (freely translated to "frog's face", even though the literal translation is "frog's mouth"). For some time they were assembled in the now PSA factory of Mangualde, in Central Portugal. 14:29 - In that particular model that's the parking brake, in the early models the parking brake was a push-pull lever underneath the dash, next to the steering column. What he meant by semi-automatic gearbox was that you don't need to have a manually operated clutch to shift gears. They were called clutchless manual transmissions. Jay Leno's has a standard manual gearbox, hence the "extra" pedal. 22:30 - Jay Leno had the steering headlights retrofitted in his DS because for some stupid reason they were forbidden in the US.
    56
  50. That engine is capable of more than 1000nm, they limited the torque to that number exactly to "preserve" the gearbox.
    56
  51. - "Knock, knock" - Who's there? - "It's Rodney" - Rodney who? - "Rodney Bearing" ๐Ÿ˜„
    55
  52. Rally Portugal is a gravel rally, drivers know what they're going to be up against when they come here. That's why many of them consider it to be one of the toughest rallies in the calendar. Oh, and about your pronunciation of Matosinhos: it was very close but not quite. I saw you struggled with the "nh" sound but since you know a bit of Spanish, it has the same sound as the "รฑ" in Spanish. ๐Ÿ™‚
    55
  53. The guy who didn't know who was the 69th president was also technically correct because you haven't reached that number yet. ๐Ÿ™‚
    53
  54. Here in Portugal, EVERY house, old or new, has a bidet in the bathroom and if it has two bathrooms, each one has a bidet. ๐Ÿ˜„ It's also very useful to wash your feet. ๐Ÿ˜€
    53
  55. ย @SainteHorusย  - Correct, he even posted a comment on the video apologising for the mistake.
    49
  56. Yeah. ๐Ÿ˜„
    48
  57. Better yet, if the owner decides to scrap the car, Ray should get hold of the engine and send it to Eric. On a crate. Held together with a million screws. ๐Ÿ˜„
    46
  58. That melted chain guide kind of deserved further investigation too but it won't keep me up at night. ๐Ÿ˜„
    44
  59. 5:10 - Renault knows that you shouldn't be driving with your elbow in that position, so they made it very uncomfortable to deter drivers from doing that.
    44
  60. 19:58 - Commercial means they are work vehicles, usually with only two seats and a cargo area in the back.
    44
  61. You're always so careful not to cause an Exxon Valdez spill, as you call it, but then Karma hits you with a Heinz Valdez. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
    44
  62. Gives a whole new meaning to FOOTage, doesn't it? ๐Ÿ˜† Btw, those scenes were all from Rally Portugal. In Walter's own words, this is how he described the portuguese spectators: โ€œYou just had to try and forget that the walls at the side of the road were made out of people: instead you simply focussed on the road ahead and tried to think of it as a tunnel.โ€ I'm portuguese but I'm not proud that my fellow country men and women ultimately caused Group B's demise.
    43
  63. I appreciate the time and effort you put into making these thumbnails with all the disassembled parts, Eric. And I think I can speak on behalf of all of your viewers too. ๐Ÿ™‚
    43
  64. 10:30 - The reason for all those lights is that in many european countries emergency vehicles can't use sirens during the night, unless it's a big emergency, so if they can't be heard they have to make sure they're seen. ๐Ÿ™‚
    43
  65. Milk chocolate is not basic chocolate, basic chocolate is just chocolate with nothing else added.
    42
  66. Yeah, it's probably one of those drivers who only has a dashcam to point out other drivers' mistakes and not his own. When he rearends someone (because in the state those brakes are in it's definitely going to be a "when", not an "if") I bet he's going to accuse the other driver of brake checking him.
    41
  67. 19:35 - The Renault Twizzy is not a car, it's an electric quadricycle, so it doesn't count.
    41
  68. *Taxis, there's no apostrophe in the plural of taxi. ๐Ÿ˜‰
    41
  69. It's not 2022's fault, it's been like that since the (anti)social media became widespread and easily accessible. Too many people lost the perception of reality, of what it means to live in society and of the moral values. They got so used to act that way that they can no longer distinguish between the virtual and the real world. : /
    40
  70. Well, you recognised Greek, which is pretty good, and considering you were playing exclusively with EU countries, there were only two options: Greece or Cyprus. Also, next time you play bear in mind that one country may appear multiple times. ๐Ÿ™‚
    38
  71. Told ya, it doesn't take much to become addicted to hillclimbing! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Not only I'm subscribed to Hillclimb Monsters' channel but I've also been following them almost since their beginning because they're my countrymen's channel (portuguese). Btw, the clips with the red tapes blocking the roadside are from our round of the European Hillclimb Championship, which takes place in Braga (northwestern Portugal). ๐Ÿ™‚
    37
  72. It's nothing but the good old title clickbait.
    37
  73. You don't have to go that far in Europe to find that the "small" portions (or normal, like you said) have double (or triple) the nutritious value of the big US portion sizes.
    36
  74. ย @jonsworld5307ย  - If he hadn't the car would immediately show a warning after he turned the engine on, so I guess "no pics but it did happen". ; )
    35
  75. The torque increase is very noticeable in how quickly and effortlessly the needle moves forward in the speedometer. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™‚
    35
  76. It just shows that smokers don't give a damn about littering. ๐Ÿ˜ 
    35
  77. There's a guy here in my city in Portugal who has a Ford Ranger Raptor (from the sound I believe it has the V6 engine). You're probably thinking to yourself, Ian "oh, but that's the smaller one!" but still it's bigger than anything else on the streets, only being beaten by the high roof vans and the city buses. He lives in my neighbourhood but I only see him driving that thing once in a blue moon.
    35
  78. I've always wondered what would've happen if Suzuki had put their motorcycle department in charge of creating an engine for their automotive department... ๐Ÿ™‚
    35
  79. Exactly, good music is still being made "underneath" the mainstream.
    35
  80. Here in Portugal it's only legal to cross a street outside of the designated crossing places as long as the spot where the pedestrian is crossing is more than 50m away from the nearest crosswalk but it's their duty to make sure they can cross safely. In this case drivers don't have to yield to them, only in the designated crossing places. However, this is not considered jaywalking, the concept of jaywalking only applies to pedestrians who cross the street less than 50m away from the nearest crossing place. This rule, however, is kind of dumb because it doesn't take into account that no pedestrian can eyeball accurate distances. Are they supposed to carry a 50m measuring tape with them to make sure they're not jaywalking? ๐Ÿ˜†
    34
  81. As a former Z-series owner, wouldn't you rather have the new Z 400? ; )
    34
  82. 8:14 - Not only it's an Audi but it's also ELECTRIC! ๐Ÿคฏ
    34
  83. I remember seeing electric shutters in more fancy houses/apartments in the mid 90's here in Portugal and they already had individual controls in each room. More recently I've seen them in less fancy/expensive constructions too. As for the manual ones, I live in a 60 year old house that had them since it was built.
    33
  84. The guys in the video over-dramatised a lot of things that even I, who are not german, know aren't like that.
    32
  85. 2:55 - Wow, just look at those two vintage Gixxers going for a spin on the Ring!
    31
  86. Engineered not only to be a gas guzzler but also to be a tire guzzler. It should be called Henneficiency. ๐Ÿ˜‚
    31
  87. 2:25 - Do you know why they derive from the same original DNA, Ian? Because the VW Beetle was created by a certain engineer called Ferdinand Porsche, who worked at VW at the time. ๐Ÿ˜‰ DTM stands for Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, so it's basically the german touring car championship. ๐Ÿ™‚
    31
  88. Ray: "The engine won't start with the seat up." Also Ray: starts the engine with the seat up a bunch of times
    30
  89. Yeah, everyone is blaming the shitty engine for what happened but ultimately the driver is the one to blame.
    29
  90. The best thing about the "euro plugs" is that, in general, type C is compatible with type J and E (Switzerland and France) and type F is also compatible with type E (France).๐Ÿ™‚
    28
  91. That Scania probably exceeds every single current US DOT requirement. ๐Ÿ˜†
    28
  92. Driving towards the sunset/sunrise with the broken timing belt hanging from the sun visor like some sort of trophy. Nice. ๐Ÿ˜„
    28
  93. 0:40 - "Biposto" means "two-seater" in Italian. ๐Ÿ™‚ 3:49 - If you know how to pronounce "lasagna", then the "gn" in Vignale is pronounced the same way, Ian.
    28
  94. ย @Snaakie83ย  - I know all that but what are the chances that a Slavik language spells the word letter by letter like we do? Even the accent (ยด) is in the same letter! I'd expect it to be more similar to the Czech "policie" or the Slovene "policija" or the Polish "policja".
    28
  95. SLATS = Self-Lubricating Axle Tube System. Judging by the petrified state of that diff's exterior, it sure needs it.
    27
  96. ย @BarryFarman-z1bย  - I don't think I'm going to tell you something you don't already know but here it goes anyway: FIRE means Fully Integrated Robotised Engine.
    27
  97. There's one thing you need to be aware of when reading the nutrition table, Ian: did you notice that it says "sugars" and not "sugar"? That's because it includes all sugars, added and natural. When you see a product that has no added sugars but still has, let's say, 10g or 15g of sugars per 100ml, it means they're all natural, good sugars that are present in the natural ingredients. In Tropicana's case, since the added sugar is cane sugar (assuming it's not completely messed up), those 26g of sugars might not be all that bad and they might even be better than the other beverages that have refined sugar added.
    27
  98. I just posted the same comment about the Sodium. What the hell are they doing to those cereals???
    27
  99. Nice touch at the end parking right behind a 1st generation Corsa, Misha. That's one I'd be interested to see you doing a lap in. ๐Ÿ˜‰
    27
  100. By the sound of it, the Toyota probably has their N/A V8 that's also used in the Lexus LC500. ๐Ÿ™‚ Yes, Andalucรญa is the southern region of Spain. We also have similar racing here in Portugal (we call them Bajas), with some international events.
    25
  101. "Alright, let's take the passenger's head off" - The FBI wants to know your location ;D
    24
  102. Bands like The Police, Fleetwood Mac, Foreigner or the Pretenders are a bit hard to identiify because they had a mix of UK and US members.
    24
  103. I always find it weird that americans call grocery stores to their huge Wallmarts, Costcos and such. Here in Portugal, grocery stores are the small, traditional, family-run stores in your street or your neighbourhood, the medium-sized stores like Aldi, Lidl, Pingo Doce, Mini Preรงo or Intermarchรฉ are supermarkets and the big one like Continente or E.Leclerc are hypermarkets.
    24
  104. New intro script: "What will happen in a drag race between two bricks on wheels and a pointy arrow?"
    23
  105. ย @TomKirkemo-l5cย  Plastic bottle caps are the 7th biggest pollution source in the world. I'm very surprised you don't know this, I thought you nordic people were the biggest environmental defenders on the planet.
    23
  106. The Heaviest Opening Ceremony of the Universe! ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿค˜
    23
  107. 17:50 - It doesn't say where because that picture is just a rendering of what the house would look like if it was built, which never happened because the project was abandoned back in 2016.
    22
  108. I'd like to correct a few minor spelling mistakes, if you don't mind: falled in love -> fell in love we buyed one -> we bought one it's european customers -> its european customers ๐Ÿ‘
    22
  109. And this, kids, is why there's a thing called annual vehicle inspections. At least in the civilised world.
    22
  110. 8:17 - "See how the numbers gradually get bigger? It looks better that way." There's no logic whatsoever in that reasoning because then you'd have to write all the dates with days that have a smaller number than the month the other way around. Because "it looks better that way."
    22
  111. I agree with the Fiesta owner's decision, I also wouldn't spend any money on a new blower until when the old one stops working completely.
    22
  112. 1:44 - I have to "disagree" with you, Tatiana, Jinjer's music is for everyone, they just don't know it yet. ๐Ÿ˜‰
    22
  113. 3:15 - Come on, Ian, don't tell me you completely missed the guy's clear irish accent since the beginning of the video! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ 6:14 - Died out? Self-parking is still a big selling point these days! Even Teslas have it, although it doesn't work all as well as in other brands. Why would car brands abandon any feature that makes drivers even lazier than they are? ๐Ÿ˜ 11:00 - When Renault, Peugeot or Citrรถen, which are brands that I'm sure many US americans would recognise, never risked going back to the US market, there's no way VW would do that with a brand like Skoda that's completely unknown to US americans. 11:30 - If there's anything that would prevent european car manufacturers from venturing into the US car market it sure wouldn't be the US crash, safety or emissions' "standards".

  115. There's nothing in the original video that suggests or says that it was about repos, Ian just wrongly assumed it on his own. In fact, in the description it clearly says that these cars were towed because they were parked in tow-away zones.

  116. In the area where I live in Portugal there are at least four: one Favorit Forman, one 90's Felicia and two 90's Felicia pickups, a normal one and one Fun model, both with the 1.9 D engine. ๐Ÿ™‚

  119. Here where I live in Central Portugal, the forecast for the next 5 days is as follows: Friday 37ยบC, Saturday 41ยบC and overcast, Sunday 42ยบC with the possibility of thunderstorms, rain and hail, Monday 43ยบC and Tuesday 37ยบC. Of course, this is today's forecast, tomorrow it might be different. I just hope it doesn't get worse. - Forecast update (27/6): Monday went up to 44ยบC but Tuesday went down to 36ยบC. - Forecast update (28/6): Tuesday just went up to 41ยบC and the weather warning went to red for hot weather between 9AM on Sunday and 9PM on Monday. -Forecast update (29/6): Monday went down to 43ยบC but Tuesday went up to 42ยบC. The weather warning went from red to orange instead of yellow due to the persistence of the hot weather on Tuesday. No rain or thunderstorms today (Sunday). The highest temperature recorded on Saturday was 45.4ยบC on a village just 40kms northeast of here. Their low was 15.3ยบC, achieving a temperature range of 30.1ยบC! - Forecast update (30/6): Tuesday went down again, to 38ยบC. Yesterday, Sunday, we had a new temperature record for the month of June: 46.6ยบC in a town called Mora, less than 100kms south of here. The second highest was 46ยบC, in the same place that recorded the highest temperature on Saturday. As of Wednesday, the temperatures will settle around 35-36ยบC until the weekend, when it's expected a small drop. It's crazy that nowadays we have "normalised" those temperatures as cooler. ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

  120. 2:52 - Yes it is, windows don't go all the way to the floor. ๐Ÿ˜‰ 10:44 - It's weird that he saw windows on sale wherever he was in Europe. Here in Portugal, when someone needs to swap old windows or doors for new ones, they just contact one of the many companies that make aluminium doors and windows, they come to the customer's home, take measures and it's all custom made. I don't believe anyone in their right mind would go to a store, buy those types of windows or doors and install them. ๐Ÿ˜„

  122. Well, what happened fits in the definition of "broken", it's not Misha's fault that some people immediately associate "broken" with blowing up a turbo or the engine or something else catastrophic. Last time I checked, "the hard send through the compression tore off the DDC (Dynamic Damper Control) cable, hence the TC could not be deactivated anymore" is too long a sentence to fit in the video title space.

  124. Don't feel bad, them changing the video title and the thumbnail 4 or 5 times in the first hour of upload has already become a meme.
    20
  125. 10:20 - Not that impressive but think about it this way, Ian: the car had 300hp, so that system could increase the power to 315hp when needed. That increase in power, although small, could make the difference between winning or losing stages, even if only by tenths of a second, and in WRC every tenth of a second counts. ๐Ÿ™‚

  127. Unlike the title suggests, it's hasn't been a secret for a looooong time, even outside of Germany. The merge between Aldi and Trader Joe's was also benefitial in the opposite way: we didn't have TJ's products here in Portugal until the Aldi stores started opening in 2006 and contrary to the stereotype that US food sucks, TJ's peanut butter is the best I've ever had. ๐Ÿ™‚

He explains everything about the exterior, interior, engine/motor and he even did two 0-56mph (they're limited to that speed in the UK) runs, one with only the tractor and another with a 44 ton trailer.

  135. 3:35 - I can assure that the standards are actually different pretty much all around Europe because we refrigerate our drinks, so we hardly ever need to put ice in them.

  136. UMM made some of the toughest offroad vehicles, so much so that they used to equip the army and one of our police forces (GNR) and many other public entities for many years. We even raced them in offroad races: we had team racing them on the 4th edition of the Paris-Dakar Rally in 1984 and, believe it or not, we sent another team of UMMs 42 years later! Salvador Caetano is a coach builder, amongst other things. It's famous for being Toyota's official importer and dealer in Portugal, now they represent many brands here.

  138. Being portuguese and occasionally going to Spain for motorbike meetings before the Euro, I never felt the complications associated with having to trade currency when I went to Spain. I had the good fortune that the exchange rate between our Escudos (the former portuguese currency) and the Peseta (the former spanish currency) was almost 1:1 and our neighbours had no problem accepting our currency for payments there. Mind you that those meetings were usually not very far from the border but in any case, we also accepted Pesetas as a form of payment on our side of the border as well. ๐Ÿ™‚

  139. 17:00 - He's somewhat wrong here, you don't need to spend 40 or 50โ‚ฌ to eat traditionally made, good food in most of Europe. Quite the contrary, in many places you can have that kind of food for not a lot more than you'd pay for fast food in the US. Heck, even in the tourist hot spot that Lisbon has become, you can eat a traditional, local full meal for 10 or 15โ‚ฌ!

  150. I'm sure there are many who answered the questions right but they don't show them because the point of these videos is to show the ones who answered them wrong and there's a recurring theme in every video that's a red flag: it's not 10 individuals who answered 1 question wrong each, it's the same 4 or 5 individuals who answered 10 questions wrong each. Another recurring theme (and another red flag) is people asking themselves what is a country. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚

  152. 0:59 - That's how you pronounce Benetton, Ian. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Fun Fact: Benetton is an italian clothing brand (United Colours of Benetton). They started in F1 by sponsoring a few teams (Tyrrell in 1983, Alfa Romeo in 1984 and then a small team called Toleman in 1985, that later became famous for being Senna's first F1 team) but in 1986 they thought "why don't we make our own F1 team?", so they bought Toleman and became Benetton Formula. They lasted until 2001 and snatched the manufacturers' championship in 1995 and the drivers' championship in 1994 and 1995 with Michael Schumacher.

Ticks all the cultural appropriation boxes!

  156. As a soldering expert, I must say: 12:07 - Right 13:30 - Wrong. Wires that are subject to pulling forces should always be twisted together before soldering. Plus, the fact that you're working in situ and in an awkward position is all the more reason to twist the wires together and avoid all that clamping needed to keep them in place when doing parallel soldering. 14:20 - You should know by now that any metal object that you put in contact with the wires will dissipate the heat, so that clamp was basically sucking some heat from the wire and that's why it took longer to make the solder melt.

  161. I'm surprised you didn't ask what FAP means, Ian, since you're usually very curious about car-related terms or abbreviations that you're not familiar with. FAP is what you call in English DPF and yes, diesel particle filters are not exclusive to normal road cars, diesel burning, full on race prototypes also had them. Did you notice that the 908 didn't smoke one bit? ๐Ÿ˜‰

    14
  164. 11:13 - I'm fortunate enough to have a pizzeria in my city that was founded by an italian chef who came to Portugal because his wife was portuguese, meaning that all his pizzas were made like back at home. It's no longer his but the new owner kept the same menu and one of the chefs that worked with him, so his legacy was kept intact. I'm not at all surprised by what the italians said in those comments because the pizzas they're talking about are exactly what's on the menu at that pizzeria. ๐Ÿ™‚

  167. I agree and it's not only having to have distincts tail light designs for distincts markets that makes it more expensive, it's also the different wiring and electronic commands needed for things to work. Simply swapping the tailights won't make the brake bulbs start flashing when commanded by the indicator stalk or the hazards' button.
    14
  168. I'm portuguese and we have loads of roundabouts all across the country. I live in a relatively small sized city but we have 22 roundabouts in the urban area alone, two of them exist for more than 60 years. Just imagine how many lives wouldn't have been taken, how much electricity would've been saved and how much pollution would've been avoided if the US had adopted roundabouts 50 or 60 years ago.

  172. Exactly and just because he's asking the questions in English but he doesn't specify that the answer must be in English, in principle you can answer in your own language. There's one question that he often asks in these ESN videos (name one country that starts with an "a" but doesn't end with an "a"), that only have two correct answers in English (Afghanistan and Azerbaijan) but have lots of correct answers in French: Alemagne, Albanie, Argentine, etc.
    13
  173. Fun Fact: here in Portugal we used to call the germans "boches". That word derived directly from the Bosch brand, which was associated with Germany, and made its way into our language from a famous comic book series about WWII. : )
    13
  174. Not only plastic bottle caps are the 7th biggest pollution source in the world but they're also one of the top COD amongst marine life, that's why the EU implemented the non-removal cap's law. And it applies to any type of container with a plastic cap, not only to bottles. Saying "I will never understand the caps on italian (EU) bottles" is the same as saying "I will never understand why the oceans, the seas, the rivers and the beaches are full of plastic caps".

  184. Old school driver here. I was taught how to drive in a car with no power steering, a heavy clutch and bad brakes but I never failed parking at first attempt (it helped that I had the best instructor in the school). Every car that I drove in the last 36 years didn't have parking sensors. If they had, I would drive them crazy with the way I park. Now that I think about it, I'd probably rip them off or cut the wires so that I wouldn't have to hear them whine about how close I was to the other cars when I'm manoeuvering to park. ๐Ÿ™‚

  185. That mechanical, manual belt tensioner might be a "Toyota thing" but it sure makes it easier to remove the belt and at least it's one less part that's prone to failure like the automatic tensioners are. Fun Fact: "denso" means dense or thick in Portuguese. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    11
  202. Engine or motor: well, if you go back to the roots of each one, they were named differently because they were two different things. A motor was a "machine", usually powered by electricity, that provides motion directly, while an engine was a machine, usually powered by some sort of fuel (combustible or not), that provides motion indirectly, i.e by the use of many moving parts. In time, the two terms became interchangeable but nowadays, with the comeback of electric vehicles, I think that distinction is starting to make sense again. ๐Ÿ™‚ Btw, did you clip the harness holder at the back of the engine back into its place?

  210. The "go big or go home" culture is not exclusive to the US, Ian. When satellite TV became very popular in the late 80's/early 90's here in Europe, a consumer electronics company I work with (specialised in TV reception equipment) sent some of their analogue sat receivers to Saudi Arabia, in order to get a supply contract for that market. This was in the mid to late 90's and at that time the receivers were already much smaller (half the standard size) than the first ones that came to the market. The saudis refused them because they were too small, so the company had to make full standard size enclosures, but with the same tiny board inside, for them to accept the deal. Their justification was that the saudi customers thought that if the receivers were small they'd probably be no good. The receiver looked ridiculous with all that empty space inside! ๐Ÿ˜†

  218. @Dave Stennett - Yeah, Ray showed some ignorance on the matter when he stated that DEF only applied to domestic vehicles and that they could export those vehicles abroad with zero emissions' stuff in them with no problem at all. If anything, it's the usainians who were late to the diesel emissions control "game". If EU emissions' standards were applied in the US (addressing his complaining about the standards not being applied evenly), most vehicles that they have currently in circulation would be outlawed.

  219. The Metro 6R4 had a NA V6, which was basically a Rover V8 engine with 2 cylinders removed. Fun Fact about this engine, Ian: it ended up being used in the Jaguar XJ220, with a pair of turbos strapped to it, instead of the promised V12 that had to be ditched due to emissions' regulations. ๐Ÿ˜€

I strongly suggest you give it a shot. There are several channels dedicated to it but my suggestion goes to Hillclimb Monsters' channel.

It's completely the opposite, you should eat something between breakfast and lunch and between lunch and dinner to avoid arriving very hungry to those meals and eat more than you should. Moreover, who lunches at 2PM and has dinner at 6 PM in Europe? I bet no one.

  243. 0:11 - They're called "matrรญculas" in Portuguese. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Ours have been following a sequence since the beginning and they have 3 pairs of 2 digits. The early ones had two letters and four numbers, with the letters at the beginning (ex: AA-00-00), when all the possible combinations of that series were used up, the letters changed to the end (ex: 00-00-AA), then to the middle in the following series (ex: 00-AA-00) and when that series ended in February of 2020, a new series with four letters and two numbers started (ex: AA-00-AA) and that's the one being currently used. Also, our plates don't have expiration or renewal dates. They are issued with the first registration of the vehicle and last until the vehicle is scrapped. 6:50 - Vanity or personalised plates are not allowed in Portugal. The UK is the only european country I know that allows them. 13:05 - My thoughts: I agree with everything you said about digital plates. The ability to "talk" to other drivers is also a big no-no. As if today's drivers didn't already have enough distracting things inside the vehicle...

Since you like the unique look of older Citrรถens you should take a look at it to see how quirky looking it was, especially the early version.

Knowing the track, the braking and acceleration points and the limits of the car makes an experienced driver go fast in any car but like others already said, this car is far from a regular M4 that you can buy from a dealership. ๐Ÿ˜„ Oh, and you don't need to tell us to go watch the original video, I'm pretty sure all of us here are part of the 8,2 millions who already have. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  254. Loving cold drinks and loving warm drinks that have to be cooled with ice are two completely different things, Ian. I love cold drinks but those properly cooled in a fridge or a freezer. Ice cubes cool the liquid they're in by melting, so putting ice cubes or ice cold water in a drink is basically the same.

  255. 8:40 - Speaking of crazy weather: last Thursday, 19th December, here where I live in central Portugal recorded the highest temperature of the day (18ยบC) at 3am and the lowest (3ยบC) at 11pm. At this time of year, the highs are usually reached between 2pm and 4pm and the lows are reached between 6am and 8am. Why did this happen? Because on Wednesday this area was affected by a low pressure system with SE winds that brought rain, heat and dust from North Africa. The temperature got up to 20ยบC during the day and only went down 2 degrees up until 8am on Thursday, when the wind switched to NW causing the temperatures to never go above the one registered at 3am. Crazy times we're living in.

  258. The problem with cars in the US is not the brands, it's the models. Kia sells vehicles like hot buns here in Portugal, just not those aberrations they sell over there, and if they weren't reliable, they wouldn't sell that well. Also, the lack of a nationwide mandatory inspections' law is a free pass for manufacturers to not give a damn about what they put on your market.

There's also a normal one in white and the other day I saw a red one but I think it's not from around here because I don't seen it very often. ๐Ÿ™‚ About the colour and the "quirky" features: this model was called Fun for a reason. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Out of curiosity, I just did a quick search for a used Fun here in Portugal and I found one for sale. It's a 1.9D (NA diesel engine from VW with 68hp) from 1999 and it has aprox. 150.000kms (<100.000 miles). The seller is asking โ‚ฌ12.450 ($13,175) and it has an 18 month warranty included in the price.

She called it "She Changes" but some people think it represents either a fishing net or an anemone. 8:15 - That's a Fiat Tipo. 8:30 - No, it's a Passat. 11:03 - Jeeps have been very popular for several years, other than that we only have some Chevys like the Aveo, the Spark, the Cruze or the Captiva (but they are no longer sold in Portugal) and the occasional Mustang.

  288. Funny that you mentioned Aldi because here in Portugal they're always standing up. Why? Because there are no permanent cashiers in the stores, once there are no customers to attend, the cashier goes into the store to do other shores. The opposite also happens when there's a lot of people to attend in the only open checkout, someone that's doing something else can come to open a 2nd or 3rd checkout. In Lidl, on the other hand, there's always a permanent checkout open with a permanent cashier and they're always sitting down. There's another supermarket here where the cashiers are always standing up: Intermarchรฉ. All the other ones have sitting down cashiers. ๐Ÿ™‚

On a designated day of the week, each person puts their respective container outside and an electric recycling truck comes in the early hours of the day and pick them up. Being electric, the trucks can circulate at those hours and not disturb anybody's sleep. ๐Ÿ™‚ My only "gripe" with this video is the time of the day when they collect the garbage, they should do it at an hour where they wouldn't be in the way of whoever needs to go about their business.

Just think about it for a moment: 1,965,000 kms in 13 years is an average of more than 151,000kms a year! He now drives a 2001 W210 that has already passed the 1 million km mark too.

Bloody robot voices... 3:38 - About the Iberian Lynx: it only exists in the Iberian Peninsula and became an endangered species due to a disease that started killing wild rabbits, their main food. We, the portuguese, managed to capture a few individuals before they went extinct and put them in a sanctuary here in Portugal, hoping they would start reproducing again while in captivity. It took some time but the gamble paid off and now every year new cubs are born and raised in the sanctuary until they reach the age when they're released back to their natural habitat, all of them carrying a monitoring collar so that the investigators can keep track of where they are and how they're adapting to the life in the wild. In 2016 there were only 403 in the whole Peninsula, last year there were 2.021, 353 more than in 2022. ๐Ÿ™‚

  360. Yep, codfish is king at Christmas Eve dinner in most regions here in Portugal, were it not the national dish. The octopus tradition is more located in the north. We have 1001 ways of cooking codfish but for Christmas the tradition is boiled, with boiled potatoes, boiled kale and a boiled egg (some people also add boiled chickpeas). Of course, people are free to be creative and make it different but usually the dish doesn't stray away much from the tradition. The funny thing is, codfish doesn't even exist in our waters, it has to come from Norway or Iceland. We're probably the only country in the world where the national dish's main ingredient is not sourced locally. ๐Ÿ˜„

  528. Turbo diesels all day, everyday. I own a 2001 Opel Astra G Caravan 2.0 DTI since 2018 and apart from a few things that the car needed when I bought it (the previous owner was an old guy and the car spent more time parked than driven), the most important thing, the engine, hasn't given me any problems whatsoever. The original waterpump lasted 23 years and 215.000kms (~133.595mi), it still has the original clutch (now at 225.000kms or ~139.808mi) and all it needs is regular oil and filter changes and fuel. It's my work vehicle, I drive it everyday, but it's also my band's transport vehicle, so several times a year it has to carry 3 or 4 people + all the music gear around the country. It never missed a beat and on those trips with a full load it still averages around 6L/100kms (~32.9mpg).

Those were the real widowmakers! Fun Facts about the F1 and F2 categories: on the F2's the engine is in front of the driver (or below, depending on how you look at it) but on the F1's the engine must be behind the driver, making the outfits slightly longer than the F2's.

Obviously (and fortunately), the situation has changed since Monday but still the fires are split 50/50 between the North and the Centre as we're speaking. You should check the facts before you start accusing someone of being wrong. Ma frend.

  602. Here in Portugal, not only we arrived late at the points' "show" (the points system was implemented only in 2016) but we also did it the opposite way of everyone else: instead of racking up demerit points, drivers were given 12 points and each time they were caught commiting an infraction ("caught" being key word #1), points between 2 and 6 are subtracted from the DL (depending on the severity of the infraction). When the drivers have 4 points left they're mandated to do a Road Safety Course ("mandatory" being key word #2), when they only have 2 points left they'll have to retake a Theory Test, if they reach 0 points they'll lose the DL for 2 years and after that period of time they'll have to retake a driving test. However, if drivers miss the RSC (because key word #2) or fail the Theory Test, they'll lose the rest of remaining points and the 0 points' rule will be applied to them. In theory this system should work but in reality it doesn't (because key word #1): a large number of drivers commit enough infractions per day to grant them enough points to lose the DL 2 or 3 times but they don't get caught. The number of drivers who lost all points since 2016, and consequently their DL for 2 years, is so low that if anyone looks at our points system numbers they will think that the portuguese drivers are the best in the world when in reality we're some of the worst.

  605. The majority of the scenes with spectators in the middle of the stage were from Rally Portugal. You can see why the portuguese spectators' behaviour was what ultimately lead to the end of Group B.

  615. 1- That must be a German thing, it's not the same everywhere in Europe. Here in Portugal all supermarkets (what you call grocery stores) are open everyday until 9pm (10pm during Summer), except on some national holidays when they either close earlier or are closed the whole day. The normal stores, including the large majority of what we call grocery stores, are closed between 1pm on Saturday and 8.30 or 9pm on Monday, except on some parts of the bigger cities and in the shopping centres. 2- Again, not something that applies to all of Europe. Also, that sign on the right at 4:52 doesn't mean only No Speed Limit, it means the end of ALL restrictions or prohibitions up to that sign, whatever they may be. 3- I've never paid to use a public toilet in my life either, Ian! The chances of that happening when you go to any european country are so slim that you shouldn't even worry about that. These guys make it sound like ALL public toilets are paid. 5- Keep Right (Keep Left in the UK) it's not an advice, it's the law in Europe.

A single used filter can potentially pollute 500 litres of water and they're the main source of oceanic pollution.

  633. Well, my story with Opel cars goes back to 2000, when I bought a 1992 Astra F Caravan 1.4i (8v, SOHC, 82hp). In 2005 I got into an accident (not my fault) and the repair was doable, but the insurance company deemed it a total loss due to its age. Since it was my work car, I searched for another used one because I knew that everything I carried in the old one would fit right into the "new" one, so I found and bought the 1997 model of the same Astra F Caravan (1.4 16v, DOHC, 90hp) with only 72,000kms (~44,739mi). I sold it in 2018 with over 270,000kms (~169,013mi) and bought a 2001 Astra G Caravan 2.0 DTI (2.0 16v turbo diesel, 101hp) with only 155,000kms (~96,312mi), which I'm still driving today. ๐Ÿ™‚

I know you're a petrolhead and I know you like to learn about the specs of these machines, especially the ones you don't recognise or you don't know what they are, and for that there's only one channel to go: HillClimb Monsters. His videos are not long and he usually creates a list of the top 10 or 15 from each event with all the info about the cars, including their best time, and he doesn't limit himself to the European Hillclimb Championship, he also does videos of events in South Africa, Greece and other countries. I know you would have a blast watching his videos, especially when you learn about the crazy specs of some of those cars. And last but not least: their sound! ๐Ÿ˜€

  662. AC/DC, the band, might've been formed in Australia but Angus, Malcolm and Bon were born in Scotland, and Cliff Williams and Brian Johnson were born in England. My problem with these lists is the nationality appropriation, I don't consider anyone born in one country that then emigrated to [enter country name] as [enter nationality] and this list is full of them. Applying for another nationality doesn't change where the person is from, quite the contrary, it strenghtens the fact that a person is a foreign in a foreign country. A persons nationality is where they were born and nothing can change that.

On the other hand we have the Model Y down 26%... 18:30 - The poster doesn't say which type of engine they were referring to (gasoline or diesel), so taking into account that diesel engines usually have larger oil change intervals than their gasoline counterparts, you should take that post with a grain of salt, Ian.

  686. 9:25 - That's the latest portuguese number plate, Ian, the two letters, two numbers, two letters without separating dots (AA 00 AA series) only started in February 2020. I call them "the bland series" because the plates are just plain ugly. The previous series had the numbers and the letters separated by black dots, and since 1998 a yellow strip on the right with the month and the year of the vehicle's first registration. Those plates looked nice but for the new series the EU forced us to remove that second strip because they argued that the LE authorities in other countries could confuse that date with the expiration date that exists in other EU countries' plates and could start pulling over portuguese vehicles for supposedly having an "expired" plate. I mean, the LE authorities in other european countries have to know what all the symbols on the various plates mean, so they could've easily learned what our date meant but since we were the only country in Europe with that and we're small, the EU "powers" forced us to remove it. The last straw was the removal of the dots for the new series but that idea came out of the "bright" minds of our "beloved" DMV. ๐Ÿ˜  The next time you react to some portuguese vehicle-related video you'll probably see at least 3 different number plates, if not all 4 because there are still many pre-1992 cars on the roads.

  715. ย @Dreynoย  The Oxford Dictionary says this: cent /sษ›nt/ noun 1.a monetary unit in various countries, equal to one hundredth of a dollar, euro, or other decimal currency unit. "the pound is down two cents at one dollar forty" Moreover, other sources say that "when referring to more than one, the word "cents" (plural) is used. For instance, "I have 5 cents" means you have five one-cent coins. Here's why "5 cent" is incorrect: the word "cent" is singular, meaning one single unit of currency, so when referring to more than one cent, the plural form "cents" is required." So you're saying that the dictionary most used as a reference for the English language is wrong? Even Merriam-Webster agrees to this definition!

  717. ย @wWvwvVย - It has nothing to do with US thinking, roadways were designed for motor vehicles. Except in very specific situations where they rule over any type of vehicle, pedestrians are in no way shape or form road users, that's why designated pedestrian crossings exist. Like others have already stated, if pedestrians get hit by a vehicle because they didn't take all the precautions to cross a roadway safely, anything that happens is their responsibility. That doesn't mean that drivers are going to intentionally run over pedestrians crossing outside of the designated places, this should be obvious. Just like in Germany, drivers tend to "yield" if a pedestrian is already in the middle of the street.

  741. In Portuguese, those suffixes can get a bit confusing for foreigners because the rule is not always the same. For instance, the feminine of "actor" (yes, in Portuguese it's spelled exactly like in English) is "actriz" but the feminine of "embaixador" (ambassador in English) is not "embaixatriz", it's "embaixadora". "Embaixatriz" is the ambassador's wife, just like "imperador" (emperor) is masculine and "imperadora" is feminine but "imperatriz" is the emperor's wife. These are only a few exceptions, the majority of nouns ended in "-or" form the feminine with "-ora" just like the examples I gave above. : )

They reach 340+ km/h easily in the circuits with the longer straights, so in an even longer straight they'd probably top up around 360/370 km/h. I think you'd have a kick watching Carwow's drag races. They race on a normal, unprepared runway (or airstrip, whichever you're more familiar with), they're wacky as hell, usually involving normal cars, SUVs, estates, bikes and supercars but also all sorts of trucks, pickups and ATVs and even race vehicles, including rally cars, rallycross cars, superbikes and even an F1 car, driven by David Coulthard. They usually do a standard 1/4 mile drag race, two 1/2 mile rolling races, one in comfort mode and one in race/sport mode and a brake test. If you like car entertainment, that's the place to go. ๐Ÿ˜€

I take a "shortcut" through pleasant countryside roads with virtually no traffic and it doesn't even feel far.

  831. 3:42 - If you put the numbers that way (the wrong way, btw), Ray, it looks like you have a very economic diesel pickup truck but for us "metric thinkers" that's 18,18-15,83 l/100km, which puts your vehicle in the same ballpark as many semi trucks. However, 13.9 mpg equals to 16,92 l/100. Next time you make this type of conversion, remember we "think" in l/100km, not in km/l.

  853. Funny thing, Eric, just the other day I was watching Ray (from Rainman Ray's Repairs channel) working on 2.5L 5-cylinder Passat that had oil and coolant mixed together almost all the way up to the top of the oil dipstick tube (just from this description you get an idea of how bad it was) and I thought "hmmm...I've never seen Eric tear down a 5-cylinder before, if he could get his hands on this one so that we could see why it got to that state, it would make for a very interesting video." I know it's not the same engine but fast forward a couple of days and here you are tearing a 5-cylinder down. ๐Ÿ˜„ Anyway, I'm still very interested in seeing what happened to that Passat engine (me and probably everyone who watches Ray's videos regularly). It's probably a long shot that you end up getting your hands on that engine but who knows, maybe the stars or planets will align and it'll eventually happens. ๐Ÿ™‚

  860. In Portugal, the annual road tax is based on the engine displacement and its respective CO2 emissions. The bigger the displacement, the higher the emissions, the more you pay. However, this only applies to vehicles registered in the country after July 2007, vehicles registered prior to that pay a lower tax according to a set table.

  863. They kind of "butchered" the name, it's an Iveco Acco. 4:34 - Definitely a diesel and definitely not a V8. Fun Fact, Ian: we also have RHD vehicles here in Portugal but with one steering wheel only. It's the street sweepers and since they work very close to the pavements/sidewalks, the driver needs to be on the right side of the cabin. I call them "the vacuum cleaners" because they suck leaves, garbage, dirt, etc from the streets to keep them clean and to avoid gutter clogging. ๐Ÿ™‚

  864. Ok, all the teams, manufacturers, riders and races are from/in Europe but this is a world championship organised by the FIM, Ian. It was first held in 1980. One of the GPs (this year it was GP2) takes place here in Portugal, in a small village called Alqueidรฃo that belongs to one of the parishes of my county, just 9 Kms (~5.6 mi) away from where I live. Seeing it live is something no words can describe. ๐Ÿ™‚

I can tell you that for the past 2 months the water temperature has been on par or higher than the air temperature in the majority of the west coast, despite the unusual warm temperatures that we've been having during these two months (only the highs, the lows have been relatively normal for the season). Unfortunately, both are a consequence of the climate changes we're experiencing.

  872. I don't know why you used the jack stand, knowing it would start lifting the car at some point. Why didn't you hook one part of the strap to the chassis, pass it under the control arm and hook the other end to the other side of the chassis? That way you'd be pulling the control arm against the car using the car and not the floor as leverage. : )

  1045. Speaking from a portuguese perspective: we always had Toyotas, Hondas, Mitsubishis or Nissans but back in the 80's, 90's and 00's they were less sought after because they were more expensive than their european counterparts due to being imported from Japan. Back in those days, even BMWs were more common here than japanese cars. Now, add to the import fees the fact that in those decades many eastern european countries were under soviet rule or were still submerged in the post-soviet era independence turmoil and there's the probable cause for the lack of japanese cars in those countries.

I used to follow Rallycross on Eurosport in the 90's and one time I watched an interview with Martin where he said that Ford delivered his new car for the season (it was the Ford RS2000, if I'm not mistaken) with around 900hp at 10.000rpm and he sent it back for a detune because not even him could handle that beast. ๐Ÿ˜†

In the Focus SVT forum it's stated that during some years Ford cheaped out on the CAFs and the cars came without it, leaving that expense to the owners. So, it's an undisputed fact that they all have at least a place to put the CAF in.

We've been having some wildfires but they have been lasting only a few hours. Today (27/7) there was one caused by a car that caught fire while towing a caravan on the A2 motorway near the Algarve (southern region) and the fire spread to the countryside near the motorway, destroying 20 behives nearby. Speaking of the US heatwave, I saw on the news that the highest water temperature ever, 38ยบC (~100ยบF), was recorded in Florida. I can only imagine the damage it caused to the ocean life...

  1201. 2:20 - Diesel. All the ICE versions have twin cylinder diesel tractor engines. The reason behind this is that the tractors those engines come from are already limited in power and max speed, so it doesn't take much development, they just use what's already available. Very low maintenance and easy to work on. Now some manufacturers also offer electric versions. 2:55 - The main restriction, and the one that allows these things to fall into the moped category, is the sticker you saw in the back: 45km/h (~28mph). However, we all know that the manufacturers don't exactly set the limiter to that figure. 4:40 - Exactly, it's not a manual and it's not an auto, it has a moped-like CVT transmission (no forward gears). 11:20 - There's the "american" in you coming out again; I drive a car with a 2.0 turbodiesel ,101hp engine, and recently I made a 250km trip (~155mi) with 3 people and a full load, A/C on and it didn't break a sweat. Cars with engines below 200hp can handle the A/C perfectly fine. 12:25 - Some of the older, more barebones' units did have drums in the back and discs in the front but from what I've seen (they're everywhere here in Portugal) the more modern models have discs all around. 13:24 - That info is wrong. None of the microcars have 50cc engines, they would be too small for the size and weight of the vehicle. The minimum displacement is usually 500cc.

  1286. 5:00- Hi Ian, portuguese here. Just so you have an idea, here are the highest temperatures recorded between July 8th and 17th, the duration of this heatwave: July 8th: 110.3ยบF (43.5ยบC) July 9th: 111ยบF (44ยบC) July 10th: 109.6ยบF (43.1ยบC) July 11th: 109.2ยบF (42.9ยบC) July 12th: 112.3ยบF (44.6ยบC) July 13th: 115.3ยบF (46.3ยบC) July 14th: 116.6ยบF (47ยบC) July 15th: 113.7ยบF (45.4ยบC) July 16th: 111.6ยบF (44.2ยบC) July 17th: 111.6ยบF (44.2ยบC) Mind you, these were not limited to a specific region or one single weather station, they happened all over the country. In the last two days the heatwave started to fade out a bit on the coastal areas and the highs were limited more to the interior regions. Here's the list of how many stations out of the 134 recorded temperatures above 104ยบF (40ยบC) in each day: July 8th: 24 July 9th: 36 July 10th: 24 July 11th: 21 July 12th: 58 July 13th: 71 July 14th: 58 July 15th: 25 July 16th: 20 July 17th: 20 The highest temperature ever recorded here is 117.1ยบF (47.3ยบC) on August 1st 2003, the second highest are now 116.6ยบF (47ยบC), one on the same day as the previous one and the other on July 14th 2022, and the 3rd highest was 116.2ยบF (46.8ยบC), in Central Portugal near where I live, in August 2018. One curious fact: the previous record of the station that registered the highest temperature on this heatwave (Pinhรฃo, Douro River valley) was 114.8ยบF (46ยบC), registered on July 31st 1944! There are more temperatures above 104ยบF (40ยบC) recorded in the 20th century, which goes to show that these high temperatures are not exclusive of the last 15 years, the difference being that they spanned over a period of 70 years and they're not as many as the ones we've had in this century mostly in 3 years: 2003, 2018 and 2022.

  1294. Here in Portugal we (the customers) are also victims of the "we're all living in Amerika" phenomenon when it comes to gas stations. Not in the size department (fortunately) but in the business model (unfortunately). I live in a city that has 6 gas stations withing the city limits, 4 of them follow the gas station/convenience store model and the other 2 are only gas stations: one of them still has an attendant to fill up your vehicle and receive the payment and the other is self-service, you can either pay with a card at the pump itself or at a booth at the exit where there's an employee. Around here pretty much all the big supermarket chains (Intermarchรฉ, Continente, Pingo Doce and E. Leclerc) have a gas station associated with them (either in the parking lot of the stores or in a separate location) and prices are usually lower than in the branded gas stations like BP, Repsol, Cepsa, Galp or Prio but there's a general belief that the quality is also lower.

So many people think it's just a flu, you get it and you're done with it until something like this happens and things we always took for granted, like the ability to smell, are put into a whole new perspective. I know people who haven't yet got their smell back, one year after they recovered from the disease and no one really knows if it'll be back 100% or if they're ever getting it back. Nobody knows how the disease is going to affect them if they get infected, so when in doubt it's better to avoid it.

  1323. There's no chip shortage for automotive industry, what's happening is that the car makers still use old technology in the engine management components and with the decrease in car sales and subsequent decrease in production due to the pandemic, the asian chip manufacturers had to turn to other sources of revenue (producing modern chips for tech companies is where the money is these days) and stopped producing those obsolete componentes that the car industry needed. When the production picked up again, the stock of obsolete chips quickly disappeared. Car makers failed to modernise their cars' ECUs and now they're paying the price.

  1334. 8:42 - We have the same rule here in Portugal but many drivers, me included, don't follow it because 1) it goes against the "Keep Right" rule and 2) it contradicts the definition of overtaking: 1) If I have a clear right lane in front of me, I must comply with the "Keep Right" rule and use that lane. I'm in the right, the ones driving in the middle or left lanes are in the wrong. 2) The definition of overtaking states that it implies switching lanes to carry out that manoeuvre, so in a situation like the one in the video I wouldn't be overtaking anyone because I'm not switching lanes and therefore I'm not breaking the "No Overtaking On The Right" rule. If I was behind that white car and used the empty right lane to overtake it, then I'd be breaking the law. The way it's written, complying with our "No Overtaking On The Right" rule (meaning everyone had to switch two or three lanes to the left to overtake the idiots "planted" in the middle lane for kms and kms) just creates far more dangerous situations and disruption to the traffic flow than complying with the "Keep Right" rule and follow the definition of overtaking. 14:00 - "Annoying" is an understatement, Ian. The lack of compliance with that number 3 rule is one of my biggest pet peeves about how some portuguese drivers drive: over here, too many people slow down to 90 km/h (or even less!) a long way before their exit on a 120 km/h motorway, while still on the motorway! ๐Ÿ˜ก

This is probably the only professional motorised sport where 2-stroke engines weren't banned yet. 3:25 - That guy is the rider's "coach" (so to speak) and he's allowed to be on the course to help guide the rider, on the more difficult obstacles, but he isn't allowed to help the rider overcome the obstacles, he's there only to assist the rider in case he falls or he's in a potentially dangerous situation, like you saw on a few occasions in the video. ๐Ÿ™‚

  1371. 6:27 - The white van driver did the right thing, Ian. They had a clear lane in front of them, so it was much better to just go instead of standing there and force the ambulance to zig-zag through traffic. Some people will disagree because "it's mandatory to stop" but if the van had stopped it would've blocked the ambulance or at least delayed its progression, that's why you hear the ambulance honking for it to go at 6:23.

  1372. 9:00 - That meme is wrong, on the 10th place of the 4th row from the top there should've been a portuguese flag. 11:55 - It's ok to not understand anything they're saying because it's a foreign language but it's not ok to butcher what they're singing when it's soooo easy to look up the lyrics: it's "Du. Du Hast. Du Hast Mich."

  1373. 6:35 - Yeah, he messed up pretty bad on that particular example. There were a few V4 engines in cars but what matters here is that a 3-cylinder engine can never be a V4. Also, 3L V8s? My guess is that his vehicular knowledge is somewhat limted but that's no excuse because he could've easily research these things before making the video.

The sign is the same for all EU countries, with only some small differences in the pictures. 6:55 - All that talk about the light bulb and you didn't even notice the brand name! 14:38 - As a portuguese person, of course I have driven across that bridge many times. As for how long does it take to cross it, it depends on the traffic conditions, the weather conditions and whether you're going North to South or vice-versa.

  1422. The 1st clip is so typical US american and so not typical US american at the same time. Let me explain: he changed everything possible to miles on the display, on a country that uses kms, but on the other hand he's driving a diesel car. ๐Ÿ˜„ 8:10 - I'm with you on this one, Ian, but do you know what you can do to practice, in case one day you come to visit the UK? Sit on the passenger seat of your manual car and start shifting gears with your left hand as if you were in a RHD car. As unnatural as it'll feel for someone who's used to having 1st and 2nd close to you and not away from you, if you practice enough, maybe you'll get the hang of it. Maybe. 17:25 - Here's a useful tip if you don't understand the language to figure out what's the right fuel: the green nozzles are for gasoline and the black/red or black/yellow are for diesel. Then it's just a question of choosing which type of gasoline or diesel to use: regular gasoline usually says 95, premium usually says 98 or higher, regular diesel is the black nozzle and premium diesel is the other colour. Gasoline also says E5 or E7 (E stands for Ethanol) and diesel also says B7 or B10 (B stands for Biofuel). This may vary slightly from country to country.

Once you start realising that you can't throw things anywhere you want and you're always worried about making a mess on the floor, you'll see that it's more fun and less "stressful" to do them at the shop.

  1548. 7:35 - This is the perfect example of why inverted videos piss me off to no end: they're trying to demonstrate "right before left" in a clip where the driver is sitting on the right side of the car, saying "right" while gesturing with the left hand and saying "left" while gesturing with the right hand. How are the viewers supposed to understand what they're trying to point out? ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚ 8:20 - The yield sign is an inverted triangle, in fact it's the only inverted triangle of all the road signs.
