Jonny has learnt of a bizarre misheard lyric. Also in this episode, long distance Tesla travel and floorpan bop, what retro car to drop onto a crashed EV chassis, a strange French shopping centre and the poo bouncer, having a dismal time in a low quality hotel, a suggestion for the Eurotunnel, throwing apple cores from cars, letting your kids eat in the car, Richard’s wife and the Starbuck’s filter coffee conspiracy, the Dutch police and their 911 Targas, dogs in nappies, lust for Porsche 912s, men at cars and coffee events looking like Build-a-Bears, and belated happy birthday to Sade.
