Podcasts about Audi A4

La “cosecha” de 1995 fue extraordinaria. Esos coches ya han cumplido 30 años y se han convertido en clásicos. Hay muchos, muy interesantes y que os van a gustar. Y, además, algunos de ellos muy asequibles: Entre 1.000 y 10.000€ puedes tener un buen clásico, incluso descapotable. Este vídeo para mi es especial porque el tema me encanta: Ya son clásicos coches interesantes, divertidos de conducir, muy utilizables y lo más importante, muchos de ellos, accesibles por un dinero muy razonable. Ahora es más sencillo y más económico convertir tu coche en clásico si tiene más de 30 años, está en buen estado y lo mantienes de serie y tiene muchas ventajas. Una de ellas son reducciones o exenciones fiscales, por ejemplo, el impuesto municipal a los vehículos de tracción mecánica, ese impuesto que muchos llamamos “el numerito”. Otra ventaja es que la ITV se espacia y es algo más “razonable” para un coche con años. Otra prerrogativa, que ha sido polémica, es que puedes acceder, con ciertas limitaciones, a las famosas ZBE o “Zonas de bajas emisiones”. Y sin olvidar que un coche con placa histórica aumenta su valor y que tienes opciones de seguros más económicos… He escogido solo a 10 coches de esta cosecha… hay más y de uno de ellos, muy notable, por cierto, hablamos en el consultorio. Además de daros alguna info del coche, os daré una orientación de su precio en España. Vamos allá. 1. Alfa Romeo GTV. Hay que mirar bien, pero puedes encontrar este coche por precios a partir de los 4.000 € 2. Alfa Romeo Spider. Respecto al GTV te va a costar unos 2.000 € más no tener techo. Pero hay unidades por menos de 10.000 en estado casi inmaculado. 3. Audi A4. Un verdadero chollo… los hay ¡desde menos de 1.000 €! Pero hay que mirar bien… a lo mejor compensa gastar más. 4. BMW Z3. Puedes encontrar las versiones de motorizaciones más bajas en el entorno de los 6.000 € para arriba. 5. Fiat Barchetta. Porque si te centras en unidades que valgan la pena, sus precios comienzan en los 6.000 €. 6. Honda Civic. Una oportunidad, las versiones con menos encanto las encuentras incluso por 2.000 €. Pero tienen poco encanto. 7. MG-F. Sobre los 5.000-6.000 € ya puedes encontrar unidades con buen aspecto… pero asegúrate de su estado. 8. Peugeot 406. Verdadero “patito feo”, por menos de 2.000 € vas a encontrar unidades. 9. Renault Megane. Me he centrado en el interesante Coupé que tiene precios muy variables, desde poco más de 1.000 € hasta 3.000 de las mejores unidades. 10. Subaru Legacy Outback. A partir de 3.000 € ya tienes unidades de las versiones más modestas que pueden merecer la pena. Conclusión. Como habéis visto la cosecha de 1995 fue muy buena y ahora podemos recoger los frutos… En esta lista hay coches muy recomendables para disfrutar conduciendo y si buscas bien y lo cuidas, tienes coche para rato.

Programa que se emite en Onda Cero MS todos los viernes a las 19:20 horas. En este nuevo episodio de AutoFM, nos adentramos en el emocionante mundo de Audi, una marca que está redefiniendo su estrategia y su gama de modelos para marcar un antes y un después en el mercado automovilístico. Con 20 lanzamientos previstos entre 2024 y 2025, Audi apuesta fuerte por la innovación, el diseño y la tecnología. Uno de los protagonistas de esta transformación es el nuevo Audi A5, que nace como una fusión perfecta entre la elegancia clásica del Audi A4 y la deportividad icónica del A5 Sportback. Este modelo, que hereda lo mejor de ambos mundos, promete ser un referente en el segmento medio o D. Hablamos del A5 como un verdadero ejemplo de cómo mantener la esencia de una marca mientras se avanza hacia el futuro. Disponible en dos carrocerías, berlina y Avant (familiar), el A5 combina diseño, practicidad y prestaciones. La berlina, con su silueta deportiva de cinco puertas y estructura de dos volúmenes y medio, redefine el concepto tradicional de elegancia al integrar un portón trasero que mejora la versatilidad. Por su parte, el A5 Avant destaca por su marcado dinamismo, con un diseño que mezcla la practicidad de un familiar con una apariencia más agresiva gracias a su línea de techo y luneta trasera inclinadas. En este episodio, analizamos también las cifras que respaldan este lanzamiento: más de 8 millones de unidades vendidas del Audi A4, un legado que el nuevo A5 recoge con orgullo, y unas proyecciones de crecimiento en el segmento del 7% para 2025. Nos detenemos en sus dimensiones, con un incremento de 7 cm respecto a sus predecesores, y en su maletero, que alcanza hasta 1.424 litros en la versión Avant, garantizando espacio y funcionalidad. Además, profundizamos en su tecnología de última generación. El nuevo Audi A5 se convierte en el primer modelo desarrollado sobre la plataforma PPC (Plataforma Premium de Combustión), diseñada para integrar sistemas de hibridación ligera y enchufable. Este sistema, conocido como MHEV Plus, incluye un motor eléctrico que no solo mejora la eficiencia, sino que también aporta potencia adicional en momentos clave, todo ello con la etiqueta ECO para muchos de sus modelos. El diseño interior también da un paso adelante con el Audi MMI panoramic display, una pantalla curva que integra un cuadro de instrumentos digital y un sistema multimedia táctil de 14,5 pulgadas, orientados al conductor para una experiencia más intuitiva y envolvente. Los acompañantes no se quedan atrás, con la opción de una pantalla dedicada de 10,9 pulgadas para disfrutar de contenido multimedia. Incluso el sistema de iluminación, con faros Matrix LED y luces traseras digitales OLED 2.0, permite una personalización sin precedentes. En la gama de motorizaciones, el Audi A5 ofrece opciones para todos los gustos, desde motores de gasolina TFSI hasta diésel TDI, pasando por el poderoso S5 con su V6 de 367 CV, capaz de acelerar de 0 a 100 km/h en tan solo 4,5 segundos. Este modelo tope de gama combina un diseño más agresivo, una tracción Quattro de alto rendimiento y una experiencia de conducción emocionante y segura. Finalmente, analizamos los detalles de diseño exterior que hacen del A5 un coche único, como la parrilla Singleframe, los nuevos tiradores eléctricos de las puertas y las opciones de llantas que van desde las 17 hasta las 20 pulgadas. También exploramos la innovación del techo panorámico con tecnología PDLC, capaz de cambiar su opacidad con un simple botón, un detalle que refleja la atención al confort y la sofisticación por parte de Audi. En definitiva, el nuevo Audi A5 no solo es un coche, es la encarnación de todo lo que representa la marca de los cuatro aros: diseño, tecnología, prestaciones y una herencia que sigue marcando la pauta en el mundo automovilístico. Acompáñanos en este episodio mientras desgranamos cada detalle de este modelo que está destinado a dejar huella. ¡Sintoniza AutoFM y únete a la conversación!

Meanwhile, the top five most Republican vehicles are the Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Gladiator, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ford F-150, and Honda Odyssey.The Business Insider series also covers how car color has changed over the years with over 80% of cars now being black, white or gray and what are the most popular makes and models in different regions, A recent analysis by Edmunds reveals a sharp increase in negative equity among U.S. car buyers, with more people finding themselves upside down on their car loans than ever before.In Q3 2024, 24.2% of all vehicle trade-ins had negative equity, up from 18.5% of Q3 2023, with the average owed amount of $6,458 up from $5,808 in Q3 2023.Over 22% of consumers with negative equity are underwater by more than $10,000, with 7.5% owing $15,000 or more.The problem spans all vehicle types, with midsize SUVs (19.5%), compact SUVs (17.3%), and large trucks (10.3%) making up the largest share of trade-ins with negative equity."It's easy to assume that only specific consumers trading in higher-ticket luxury vehicles are the ones underwater on their car loans, but the reality is that this is a problem across the board," said Ivan Drury, Edmunds' director of insights.Sam's Club is introducing a groundbreaking, all-digital shopping experience with its newest store in Grapevine, Texas.

Nils har växt upp, Theo har alltid rätt men ibland inte och Petter får aldrig prata till punkt. Dessutom har vi kört en bil som nästan slår sig in i kreddens högborg, Audi A4!

Længe er der gået, siden Audi lancerede nye biler, men her i 2024 og 2025 kommer mærket med en stor offensiv. Der er også nye prisfald hos Volvo og VW og farvel til flere klassiske bilmodeller i denne uges Bilradio-podcast. I mere end tre år har Audi ikke lanceret nye bilmodeller. Efter massive forsinkelser på flere nye biler, sker der dog noget nu. Mildest talt.I første omgang er der snart verdenspremiere på den helt nye Q6 e-tron, fulgt af A6 e-tron, men senere kommer der en hærskare af helt nye modeller.Det viser en gennemgang af fremtidens Audi-biler, som et stort fagtidsskrift har foretaget og som er emnet i denne uges Bilradio.Audi vil bla. lancere en fuldt elektrisk Audi A4 og overrasker ved at bekræfte, at man samtidig arbejder på en ny lillebror til den kendte Q4.Få også historien om nye og lavere priser på elbiler fra Volkswagen og Volvo, farvel til legendariske Jaguar-modeller og goddag til markedets første elektriske roadster.Bilradios redaktion har også opsnuset det måske bedste privatleasingtilbud lige nu, og i testgaragen kan du høre, hvorfor der både er gode og dårlige nyheder fra Peugeot.00:41-05:02 Knapper slår touchscreens 05:03-07:50 Volkswagen ID.7 prisjustering 07:59-14:42 Volvos nye elbilstrategi 14:43-20:02 Jaguars overgang til elbiler 20:08-28:58 MG Cyberster 28:59-39:29 Audi Q6 og den vilde Audi-fremtid 39:37-43:42 Nye privatleasingtibud 43:51-57:28 Testgaragen med Peugeot e-308 og den Peugeot, man skal vente på 57:37-1:03:33 Lytterspørgsmål

Einen Gebrauchtwagen konfigurieren und mit Extras ausstatten, die er vorher nicht hatte. Gibt's nicht? Gibt's doch: beim Pilotprojekt „Audi reloaded“. In Aachen bereitet ein Handelspartner mit den vier Ringen eine Auswahl an Audi A4, A5 und Q5 professionell auf. Der Clou: Wer eins dieser „Audi reloaded“ Modelle kauft, kann zusätzlich bestimmte Sonderausstattungen auswählen und es so individuell konfigurieren. Wie „Audi reloaded“ funktioniert, welche Idee hinter dem Pilotprojekt steckt und was Audi sich davon verspricht, das verrät der Projektleiter Thorsten Schrader im Gespräch mit Podcast-Moderatorin Brigitte Theile.

Named in honor of Richard Taylor's mother, Joy, the display features over 1.2 million LED lights on 246 natural trees. The Taylors transformed their driveway into a walk-through winter wonderland in 2018. While the show was initially free, recent safety concerns following a tragic accident have led to the implementation of a mandatory $5 entrance fee. The display runs every night through December 28 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. STORY 3: Train Hits Car Near Marietta Square, Driver OK A motorist in a 2020 Audi A4 escaped injury after their car got stuck on train tracks near Kennesaw Avenue in Marietta.

Railroad crossings near Marietta Square were blocked until approximately 1:30 a.m. Marietta Police noted that this incident is not the first time a driver has mistakenly turned onto the train tracks, with some blaming GPS instructions for the confusion.

No Coverage for Loss After Policy Cancelled In an action for declaratory judgment to determine whether the plaintiffs had a duty to defend and indemnify the defendants under certain insurance policies for injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident, where the trial court granted the plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment. In Liberty Insurance Corporation et al. v. Theodore Johnson et al., No. AC 45933, Court of Appeals of Connecticut (December 5, 2023) the Court of Appeals resolved the dispute.FACTSThe defendants, Theodore Johnson (Theodore) and Kim Johnson (Kim), appealed from the judgment rendered by the trial court following its granting of a motion for summary judgment filed by the plaintiffs, Liberty Insurance et al and Safeco Insurance Company of Illinois (Safeco). The primary issue is duty to defend a separate action that stemmed from a motor vehicle accident in which the defendants' son, Aaron Johnson (Aaron), was driving a motor vehicle owned by Theodore when he lost control of the vehicle and struck a telephone pole, causing serious injuries to a passenger in the vehicle, Jordan Torres.At some point prior to 1:33 a.m. on December 26, 2019, Aaron left the defendants' house and operated a 1997 Audi A4 2.8 Quattro (Audi) owned by Theodore. Torres was a passenger in the Audi at the time. As Aaron attempted to navigate a curve, he lost control of the Audi, crossed into the westbound lane of traffic, and left the roadway, striking a telephone pole.Torres sustained personal injuries in the accident and sued a bar in Newington and its backer, as well as Theodore, Kim and Aaron. In the Torres action, Torres alleged that, on December 25, 2019, Aaron, a minor, consumed alcohol at the bar, after which he went to the defendants' house in Glastonbury, where he was visibly intoxicated and consumed more alcohol. Following the commencement of the Torres action, the defendants sought coverage from the plaintiffs for Torres' claims under three policies of insurance:a homeowners insurance policy issued to the defendants by Liberty Insurance (homeowners policy);an automobile insurance policy issued to the defendants by Safeco (automobile policy); andan umbrella insurance policy issued to the defendants by Liberty Mutual (umbrella policy). Thereafter, the insurer plaintiffs sued seeking a judgment declaring that the plaintiffs are not obligated to defend or indemnify the defendants with respect to Torres' action.Specifically, the insurers based that argument on an exclusion in the homeowners policy that excludes coverage for" 'bodily injury' or 'property damage' . . . arising out of (1) [t]he ownership, ... of motor vehicles ... operated by or rented or loaned to an 'insured' [motor vehicle exclusion] . . . ." --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/barry-zalma/support

I denne episode skal du høre historien om Firtal Group fortalt af Mikkel Salling. Firtal, som du måske husker fra sæson 1 fra Løvens Hule, hvor de fik en rekordinvestering fra Ahlers, Stadil og Buch. De driver i dag en række webshops, herunder Helsebixen, Jala-helsekost, Made4Men og Well. Det hele startede med at Mikkel droppede sit velbetalte job hos JYSK og gik All-in i virksomheden, som i starten kun bestod af Made4Men. En virksomheder med de samme store ambitioner i dag, men som selv Mikkels kæreste havde svært ved at tro på. For der gik lang tid, hvor de slet ikke tjente penge. Faktisk var Mikkel og hans kompagnon klar til at give op sælge virksomheden, men et meget lavt købstilbud fra en dengang ukendt Jacob Risgaard fik dem begge på helt andre tanker - Og siden da gik det pludselig rigtig stærkt. Den historie kommer du til at høre meget mere om. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Wir sehen uns am morgigen Donnerstag wieder, wenn Sie mögen! Danke fürs Zuschauen und bis dahin.

We've talked BMW and Mercedes, so it's only fair we eventually got to the third German carmaker - Audi. The A4 is their bread and butter seller, and represents one out of every five cars they sell. But is it any good? And which one do you want to buy? Well we're here to answer those questions and more.

Audi A4 har været en klassisk firmabil, elsket og kendt af mange i mere end 25 år. Men nu er det snart farvel til denne ikoniske model, da en helt ny afløser snart står for døren, og med den kommer også et nyt navn.Denne spændende udvikling gælder også for flere andre af Audi's eksisterende modeller. Hør historien bag dette skifte i denne uges Bilradio, hvor eksperterne også vil dykke ned i en anden legendarisk Audi-model, nemlig TT, der fejrer sit 25 års jubilæum.Blandt elbilerne vil der også være fokus på længe ventede forbedringer til en populær Peugeot-model. Men er det nok til at skille sig ud fra konkurrenterne?Værten, Christian Schacht, vil diskutere dette spørgsmål med markedsanalytiker Jan Lang fra Bilbasen, og sammen vil de give lytterne et indblik i bilverdenens seneste udviklinger.

This week is a proper meandering pick 'n' mix of subjects, from an honest Audi A4 cab in for Rate or Slate, through some of our personal history including some dodgy antics in field cars as teenagers and then finishing up with an accidental trip down Rant Alley talking about VW killing off the Golf and people bragging about their car's theoretical horsepower.Get in touch if you want your car featured on Rate or Slate - just email bjdocars@gmail.com to be featured and as always feel free to comment any suggestions you may have for us to talk crap about!YouTube Link:Ben and Jon Do Cars - YouTube Hosted on Acast.

Als Alfa Romeo 2015 den Namen Giulia zurückbrachte, stand die Autowelt kurz still. Denn mit der neuen Giulia haben die Italiener nicht nur ein Designmeisterwerk erschaffen, sondern die Giulia auch bewusst gegen den BMW 3er, den Audi A4 und die Mercedes C-Klasse positioniert. Was uns an der italienischen Limousine gefallen hat, wie viele Emotionen sie versprüht, wo sie zur Diva wird, erfahrt Ihr in der neuen Folge von Erst fahren, dann reden. Für mehr Infos zu unserem Partner und über Echte Autoliebe-Stories findet ihr auch auf dem CosmosDirekt.-Blog unter https://www.cosmosdirekt.de/magazin/autoliebe/. Schütze was du liebst!

Wenn wir über den Audi A4 allroad quattro sprechen, dann müssen wir zunächst mal anmerken, dass es sich um einen Avant handelt, also einen Kombi. Vom „normalen“ Avant unterscheidet er sich durch charakteristische Details wie die Stoßfänger an Front und Heck, die breiten Radlaufblenden und die erhöhte Dachreling. Gegenüber dem Audi A4 Avant gibt es vergrößerte Räder und 35 Millimeter mehr Bodenfreiheit. Darum geht es diesmal!Wenn ein Audi in seinem Namen den Zusatz „S tronic“ trägt, dann weiß ich, dass mich ein entspanntes Fahren ohne unnötige Schaltarbeiten erwartet.  Eine S tronic ist ein Doppelkupplungsgetriebe, das den Komfort einer Automatik mit der Effizienz eines Schaltgetriebes verbindet. Sie hat das in unserem Testfahrzeug, einem Audi A4 allroad quattro 40 TDI mit Bravour bewiesen. Power und Drive!    Bleiben wir noch einen Moment bei der S tronic. Es gibt sie mit sechs oder sieben Gängen, im A4 allroad quattro 40 TDI sind aller guten Dinge sieben! Das macht angesichts der Leistung von 150 kW (204 PS) auch Sinn. Diese Leistungsausbeute pusht den allroad quattro 40 TDI in 7,3 Sekunden von 0-100 km/h. Auch wenn man heutzutage kaum noch Spitzengeschwindigkeiten fahren kann, ich will sie trotzdem nennen. Es sind 232 km/h. Und man ist in jedem Geschwindigkeitsbereich angenehm unterwegs, nicht nur dank der S tronic, sondern auch wegen des Gesamtfahrverhaltens.  Verbrauchsseitig kommt der Wagen mit 5,7 – 6,2l Diesel im kombinierten Fahrzyklus nach WLTP 100 Kilometer weit bei CO2-Emissionen von 150 bis 162 g/km. Die Innenausstattung!Bleiben wir mal beim angenehmen Unterwegs-sein und greifen mal ein paar Highlights heraus. Und Light ist da ein gutes Stichwort. Der Allroad quattro ist mit Scheinwerfern in LED-Technologie unterwegs, zu denen auch Allwetterlicht gehört. Diese Technik reduziert die Eigenblendung bei schlechten Sichtverhältnissen und bietet eine breitere Ausleuchtung als Nebelscheinwerfer bei gleichzeitig vierfacher Reichweite. Eine Geschwindigkeitsregelanlage mit Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzer ist ebenso serienmäßig an Bord wie die elektrisch öffnende und schließende Gepäckraumklappe. Leider kann ich Ihnen in der Kürze unserer Sendezeit nicht die komplette Ausstattung nahebringen, schauen Sie einfach mal in die Ausstattungskiste! Die Kosten!Um den Preis des Audi A4 allroad quattro 40 TDI richtig einzuordnen, muss man zum einen berücksichtigen, dass wir von einem Kombi sprechen, zum anderen, dass er serienmäßig mit Allradantrieb geliefert wird. Somit ist der Preis von 52.450,– Euro durchaus angemessen. Und man bekommt schließlich nicht nur einen gut ausgestatteten Kombi. Man bekommt auch jede Menge Fahrspaß inklusive.

I denne episode skal du høre historien om Firtal Group fortalt af Mikkel Salling.   Firtal, som du måske husker fra sæson 1 fra Løvens Hule, hvor de fik en rekordinvestering fra Ahlers, Stadil og Buch. De driver i dag en række webshops, herunder Helsebixen, Jala-helsekost, Made4Men og Well.  Det hele startede med at Mikkel droppede sit velbetalte job hos JYSK og gik All-in i virksomheden, som i starten kun bestod af Made4Men. En virksomheder med de samme store ambitioner i dag, men som selv Mikkels kæreste havde svært ved at tro på. For der gik lang tid, hvor de slet ikke tjente penge.   Faktisk var Mikkel og hans kompagnon klar til at give op sælge virksomheden, men et meget lavt købstilbud fra en dengang ukendt Jacob Risgaard fik dem begge på helt andre tanker - Og siden da gik det pludselig rigtig stærkt. Den historie kommer du til at høre meget mere om.   ___________________________________ Lyt til Podtribe Medias helt nye podcast "10 i 8 - Hele Danmarks Motivationspodcast" lige her Mark Anthony er motivationsekspert og har fået tilnavnet Mr.Motivator.

¡Extracto! de la tertulia emitida en ONDA CERO MADRID SUR el 9 de septiembre. Hoy vamos a aprovechar que tenemos la presencia de Ignacio González Director de Comunicación de Audi España y vamos a hacer una pequeña sección hablando de la historia de Audi en el mundo de la competición, del Motorsport. Y es que hablar de Audi es hablar de éxito prácticamente asegurado. 1982 fue su año de Debut, y lo hicieron en el campeonato del mundo de rallys donde en su primera temporada se hicieron con cinco victorias logrando así el titulo de constructores con el prestigioso Audi Quattro. Al año siguiente repiten el mismo numero de victorias logrando el titulo de pilotos pero dejando el de constructores en manos de Lancia. Pero para su tercer año consiguen nada mas y nada menos que siete victorias logrando de esta manera el titulo de pilotos y de constructores y marcando un hito en el mundial de rallys al conseguir en solo tres años, cuatro títulos. En sus últimos tres años en la categoría no conseguiría reinar, como lo hizo en años anteriores, pero si que consiguió 2 victorias más y 3 subcampeonatos para cerrar su etapa en el campeonato del mundo de rallys. De ahí dieron el salto al DTM, el principal campeonato alemán de automovilismo, donde tuvieron un paso tan exitoso como fugaz. Audi eligió el Audi V8 Quattro, cuyo sistema de tracción a las cuatro ruedas y mayor potencia mostró ser superior a los rivales de BMW y Mercedes-Benz. En 1990 fueron campeones ganando 7 carreras de 22, y en el 91 repitieron corona consiguiendo 10 victorias en esa temporada. Para 1992 el DTM cambió el reglamento para eliminar la ventaja de Audi, por lo que la marca acabó abandonando el campeonato. En 1994 Audi colabora en la creación del campeonato alemán de Superturismos donde resulta campeón en los años 1996 y 1998. En el año 2000, tras la crisis que vivía el campeonato, este fue sustituido por un revivido DTM cuyo objetivo era lograr una categoría tecnológica y competitiva, pero de costos razonables para poder invertir. Hoy día, el DTM de la era moderna, se posiciona como el campeonato más importante a nivel mundial de automóviles de turismo. En el DTM Audi ha logrado 10 títulos de pilotos y 8 de constructores con coches como el Audi TT, el Audi A4 y el Audi RS5. A lo largo de la década de los 90’ Audi también participó en campeonatos de turismos por toda Europa y Australia. En su palmarés podemos destacar: 2 títulos en el Campeonato Italiano de Superturismos, 1 en el Campeonato Británico de Turismos, 6 en el Campeonato Sueco de Turismos y 2 más en el campeonato Australiano de Superturismos donde en 1998 lograron 14 victorias de 16 posibles. En el apartado de las competiciones de resistencia, Audi inició en 1999 un programa deportivo de prototipos. En el 2000 Audi desarrolló el Audi R8 LMP con el que obtuvo 5 victorias en las 24h de Le Mans y seis títulos de pilotos y de equipos en la American Le Mans Series entre los años 2000 y 2005. siendo el primer automóvil en ganar Le Mans con un motor de gasolina de inyección directa. A partir del 2006 comenzó a competir con el Audi R10 TDI que se convirtió en el primer automóvil con motor Diésel en triunfar en las 24 Horas de Le Mans (2006, 2007, 2008) y que también obtuvo los títulos de pilotos y equipos de la ALMS entre 2006 y 2008, y la Le Mans Series en 2008. En 2012 se originó el Campeonato Mundial de Resitencia donde Audi obtuvo el titulo de pilotos y equipos en la clase LMP1, que un año mas tarde repetiría. Pero en las temporadas 2014, 2015 y 2016 no pudo repetir los campeonatos viéndose superado por Toyota y Porsche. Después de esto abandonaron el WEC. Ahora todos estamos pendientes de su regreso en 2023 al WEC y la IMSA, y de su puesta en escena en la Formula 1 a partir de 2026 junto al equipo Sauber. Y por último, toca hablar también de los éxitos de Audi en los campeonatos con motores eléctricos. Audi participa en la Formula E desde el año 2017 como equipo oficial, aun que desde la temporada inaugural, en 2014, compiten en colaboración con el equipo ABT. Es cierto que Audi a anunciado su marcha del campeonato para este mismo año, pero hay que destacar que durante estos años han logrado conseguir 13 victorias, un titulo de pilotos, otro de constructores y tres subcampeonatos como constructor. Además, también cabe destacar la participación de Audi este mismo año en el Dakar con el RS Q e-tron con el que es cierto que no consiguieron ganar, pero si que consiguieron dejarnos a todos con la boca abierta con un prototipo producto de la unión de la tecnología y experiencia de sus dos proyectos previos en el DTM y la Formula E.

Having known Peter and his team for many years, Wendy has heard lots of his stories but knew there would be one she had not heard before. Digging for the gold in the seam through conversation or branding can have a really positive impact on the first impressions you make in business. We make all decisions through an emotional process. Being a clever chap, Peter shares a story about an invention, with a global patent, that you will just never believe... Your host, Wendy Harris, runs a training business and has been Making Conversations Count for over 30 years. She has a best selling book on Amazon and loves nothing better than helping others find the right people to have the right conversations with.

I am your host; I am Wendy Harris and today I am joined in the studio by Peter Howard from PHd Design.  We've known each other for a very long and time I must just explain very quickly that you might hear a dog wagging their tail because my Maud knows you very well and has recognised your voice; and does normally sit down very calm and quietly but I think she's missing her Peter love. Peter Howard: Bless her cotton socks.  I can put up with a little bit of tail wag whooshing. Wendy Harris: That's great, thank you.  Peter, please introduce yourself.  Tell us a little bit about who you are and what you do. Peter Howard: My name's Peter Howard and for my sins I am Head of Blame at PHd Design.  Thankfully that role is not that busy because we don't very often get things wrong.  So, PHd Design we've been going since 1992, good Lord, and we an award-winning graphic design branding and design company.  We've got two international awards, a couple of regional awards, we've been a member of the Chamber of Commerce since we started, and we're also now independently ranked in the top 100 design companies in the UK. Wendy Harris: That's a fantastic accolade to have, isn't it?  Am I right in thinking that we brag about that as being the only design agency in Staffordshire that has ever got that accolade with Design Week? Peter Howard: Spot on, the only one in Staffordshire.  There's only three in the Midlands, the other two are in Birmingham and they're all infinitely bigger than we are, and they do a lot of other things apart from what we do.  But we're a specialist and we're very proud of that, because it is independent as well which is wonderful. Wendy Harris: I've known for what 10, 11 years, I think? Peter Howard: Yeah, something like that.  I have got older, I've got more bags under my eyes, a few more crow's feet but hopefully the passion hasn't changed and the ability to cut through the normal, shall we say noise? Wendy Harris: I think you are right there, Pete, because it's a very family feel in the studio.  There's that sort of relaxed approach because you know what you're doing.  When I hear you talking to clients you know what you're talking about so it's about getting them to relax as well; to tell you what they need for you to be able to show them what you can do. Peter Howard: It's absolutely true.  Strangely enough, because of all this Covid times and we're all working remotely and then we came back to the studio and now it's all working remotely again, blah, blah, we've adapted, and I think the phrase is "pivoted" so that we can all work from home remotely and access all the bits and bobs at work. Wendy Harris: I like "pirouette" better. Peter Howard: Sounds much more pleasant that does, definitely.  You wouldn't want to be seeing me do a pirouette though trust me. Wendy Harris: No, you don't want to see my knees. Peter Howard: Yeah, my wife said to me the other day, she happened to be at the office here at home.  She said, "You actually came across really well there", and that was quite a nice thing for me to hear.  She doesn't normally witness what I do for a living.  So, she happened to be in whilst I was talking to a client about a presentation of what they needed.  She said, "You came across really well because you got your personality across and the passion and the real desire to dig to the heart of what their challenge was and then solve it for them".  Ultimately that is what every client wants.  They want somebody to bother to understand it, and then offer a solution that recognises what the challenge is that they can see it and go, "Oh yeah, I get what that is now". Wendy Harris: For me it's like digging for gold, isn't it, and finding the seam.  So, a lot of clients will know themselves what that gold looks like and feels like, but then explaining that gold and how it can work for them can be really challenging either through conversation, through communication, through a lot of the things that you produce in the studio.  I'm really chuffed I get loads and loads of comments about my branding and that's thanks to you guys.  It's made such a massive difference because people recognise who I am straight away, just from an image. Peter Howard: It's amazing how much of a difference that can make.  It's wonderful for you to say that thank you very much, it means a lot, but it is absolutely bang on.  The funny thing is, is that we can't help, as human beings, we can't help make a first impression.  If you walk into a room, if you walk past a bookstand at an airport, if you're out on the pull, and this is a strange analogy, but we always make a decision with our eyes first.  If you're at a restaurant and the food comes out, if things look good, if things look right, if things look appropriate to what you're expecting them to be, then the message goes from the eyes to the brain, the ears, the nose, the taste and this, that and the other, to tell them, "Listen, guys, we're the first barrier of defence, all looking good".  So, everybody else is a little bit more relaxes in the senses. So, if the visual is right at the start, chances are people will look a bit further and try it or test or talk to it or touch it or whatever it is to make sure that it lives up to its first impression. Wendy Harris: I was so busy listening to you then I was thinking, "Do you know, it is that every decision that we make is an emotional one". Peter Howard: God, yeah and you justify it afterwards. Wendy Harris: Yeah, we talk ourselves in or out of it afterwards as to whether it was the right decision or not, but it is that emotive process, isn't it? Peter Howard: Here's something that happened to me a few years ago, this is just to bear that out.  I was looking to buy a different car.  The old car I got was broken and it was time to put it to bed, so to speak.  I went looking for a car, and I thought, "I'll get a lease deal and this, that and the other", and I found an Audi A4.  I'm going to back to -- the year was 2003.  Found an Audi A4, and I wanted it and it was my first ever brand-new car and I just wanted it. I remember justifying it, finding lots of evidence about the miles per gallon and about the insurance premiums and what I was already paying on XYZ, just so that I could justify it to our accounts chap at work then.  I thought, "What am I doing this for?", because ultimately, I've bought it because I like the look of it and that's what I wanted. Wendy Harris: Yeah, I can have it because I can, I don't need anybody to tell me I can. Peter Howard: Mad isn't it?  But I do remember justifying it, so yeah, it was an emotional purchase, but then backed up by trying to justify it pointlessly anyway. Wendy Harris: It doesn't matter what we say, conversation is key to just about everything that we do really, isn't it?  Life, work, personal, goals. Peter Howard: I really agree with that.  This manifests itself into our world or PHd's world day in, day out.  Because we work so closely with our clients, you end up having them as friends, they end up becoming part and parcel of your life.  You can have a conversation with somebody and if they feel comfortable with you then they just start talking about all sorts of things, all sorts of things to do with their own life.  Having that ability to hold a conversation with anybody, whether it be shopfloor to boardroom, doesn't make any difference people are just people. People like to chat.  People like to have a chat with somebody who can demonstrate that they are (a) listening and (b) give a damn about what's being said to them, because so many times you'll hear or you'll see maybe, you'll come across, let's say a salesperson, and that salesperson is focused, "Get the deal, get the job".  You're having a chat with them and they're not listening.  You can almost see the words you're saying going in one ear and falling out the other one and you're thinking, "I'm not going to give you the business". Wendy Harris: It's that's scenario isn't it of, "You went on holiday, that's nice, can you sign here?"  "The weather was -- yeah, it's just there and you need to date it too".  "Yeah, so there was plenty of ice cream?".  "Yeah, okay and if you turn over that's the small print", because they just want to be out of there, don't they? Peter Howard: Our clients, they just keep coming back which is absolutely flipping wonderful.  We don't hold anybody on a retainer, I don't think we've ever done a retainer with anybody, but the simple principle is if you do a good job and you're being straight and honest and upfront about everything with somebody and you do it right, then they come back because they see the results of your labour.  You were alluding to it earlier that the work that we've done for you is getting WAG more noticed because you've now got a distinctive style. Wendy Harris: Yes. Peter Howard: If we can give that to people to make them more recognisable, more seen, more noticed, more heard, etc, by the power of design, then they've got to be ahead of their competitors.  If you can do that and be a nice person and have a chat and a laugh along the way … Wendy Harris: Yeah, I agree Pete, because I have visibility now because people recognise it.  There's a certain credibility as well because I would say it shows that I actually care about the first impression I want to make, when I show up.  It is polished, it's no longer the eye stock vintage phone, cobbled together on some free app with my logo that's 16 years old.  It just shows that I care. Peter Howard: Absolutely, and if you care then they will subliminally care because people notice that.  They subliminally notice stuff when somebody's put some effort and care and attention into it.  You can't help it; we all notice when things look ropey.  You don't necessarily notice when things look good, but you notice when they look bad.  Not many people will tell you it looks bad, but if people are noticing that you look bad then you'll see it in the drop off the figures, people will do that. Whereas if you look good, it's almost expected to be that way, so what we try and do is make sure that all of our clients look consistent.  Oddly probably the biggest and best word in what we do is that, it's consistency, because if you do it consistently then you get a brand awareness; you get a look and a feel and a style.  The trick there is to make sure it's done well, so if you do it consistent and well, that's a winner for everybody. Wendy Harris: Your design, one of the observations I would say having known you for such a long time and seeing a lot of the projects that you've worked with and -- Peter Howard: Is this going to be good or bad? Wendy Harris: No, yeah, it's good.  You're a small team and it's very much a family feel, and I think even the listeners will agree with me, when you go to a designer and an agency there's generally a very strong undercurrent of how they design, that you can tell who it is.  You can go, "Oh and that's them over there, they've done that". Peter Howard: Yeah. Wendy Harris: What I think the beauty of what you create in your studio is what the client wants to the point that we can't always tell that it's you that's done it.  PHd is invisible because it's so the client's brand. Peter Howard: It's not everybody that notices that, but that's oddly what we try and set out to achieve.  We don't necessarily want people to recognise that it's us; we want people to recognise it's the customer.  That may be born out of the fact that we've got such a diverse client base that it's wonderful.  We might be dealing with a range of beers one day or one week; and then we're doing a shirt the next week; then we might be doing a solicitor's literature the next week.  There is a novel thing, trying to make solicitor speak into the language that the customers (a) understand, and (b) give a monkey's about; that's quite a challenge. Professional services, and then we might have an automotive company and all of those are incredibly different target audiences, so you have to design it in a different way for each different project.  But because have such a wide scope it really makes it a lot easier, ironically, because we can draw on experiences, let's say, from the automotive world and put it into the drinks industry.  We can draw on stuff we've done for the FMCG market and put it into professional services, and it does help having such a wide pool of very different customers.  One thing that holds them all together though is that they do care how they look; that's the probably the thing that holds them together. Wendy Harris: Yes, and that whatever it is that you do for them speaks on their behalf.  It's not that they're suddenly trying to communicate in a different fashion either. Peter Howard: Well it's got to be appropriate to them. Wendy Harris: Yes, you can take the jargon out can't you, but it's still got to be that it sounds like them. Peter Howard: And appropriate to the market.  There's no point making a solicitor look like a cool hip and trendy TV producing company, because it wouldn't work and equally vice versa. Wendy Harris: Although I have got that going round in my head now and that's quite funny. Peter Howard: Likewise, you wouldn't expect a barrister let's say to come dressed with beads, dreadlocks and flip flops.  There's an image that you need to culture.  So, there's a window; is that the right word, or parameters that you can work within. Wendy Harris: Boundaries, I know one of my listeners will love that. Peter Howard: You try and push them because that's in nature what we try and do, but you do need to recognise that there are certain things that you think, "Nah, that's just going to float, that isn't.  That is just way too brave". Wendy Harris: A bit too out there. Peter Howard: It's knowing where they are. Wendy Harris: Yeah, absolutely.  Pete, I could talk to you all day about what you do and it's just purely because I have an invested interest in it as well, having known you for so long, but everybody on the show you can't get out of it; I ask everybody to bring a pivotal moment at that conversation that really created a turning point. Peter Howard: Do you want me just to spurt it out and talk it through? Wendy Harris: Yeah, tell us what's happened to create a pivotal moment for you? Peter Howard: Let me take you back to late 1990.  There may be some people out there thinking, "I wasn't even born then", you never know, but late 1990 I was a partner in a reasonably successful design company in Birmingham.  We'd got, I think, five staff designers and life was pretty good.  I thought I was king of Great Barr to be honest at the time, that's where I'm from.  I had a Peugeot 205 GTi with a phone in it. Wendy Harris: That's what I learned to drive in. Peter Howard: Fantastic cars. Wendy Harris: Yeah. Peter Howard: So, I was king of the hill and I thought I was superb and everything in the garden was rosy.  Me and my business partner, we invented a product, and that product has gone on to sell easily in excess of a billion units throughout the world, but however there's always a "but", we're dogged with a bit of bad luck and it culminated in a weekend down in London with the MD and owner of Chrysalis Music.  We'd got over a lot of hurdles, we'd borrowed a bit of money and ultimately, we were going to sell the rights to this product to Chrysalis Music for a global rollout.  It's a flip case, like a Filofax for CDs, so anybody who's listening, if you've got one of those like a little zip case with the sleeves you can put CDs in, it emanated from me. Wendy Harris: I've got one in the car. Peter Howard: Yeah, I've got the patent certificate at work, because we got the global patent on it.  However, come Christmas and this was December 1991, so I've come forward a year, my then business partner, who shall remain nameless, he announced to me that he was going to be going to, I think it was Gambia with his girlfriend for Christmas.  So, I thought, "Great, fine no problem".  He said, "Do you want to borrow my car over Christmas and have a little play?"  He'd got -- I think it was a reasonably new Lancia Delta HF Intergrale which is basically a Ferrari with a Lancia body on it.  It's a nutcase car, left-hand drive, evil, evil thing.  So, I thought, "That's brilliant, I'll have a little play with that", so off he went.  That was mid-late December 1991. By Christmas 1991 the world had imploded for me.  The car was repossessed, his car was repossessed, my car was repossessed; the phone obviously went with it.  My flat had to go because I couldn't afford it.  The business -- we had three businesses all of them imploded on themselves.  What I've learned out of that particular experience is that I trusted probably too much because I'd signed lots of things that I wasn't quite sure what I was signing, and it basically transpired that the whole of the three businesses were held up by prayer and faith and hope.  So, it was incredibly in debt, there was a lot of bank debt, there was a lot of personal guarantees debt, and that's quite a crucial factor of this pivotal moment. So, I hadn't realised a lot of this; so everything went, the bailiffs turned up, the business was gone.  Not quite overnight, but pretty close.  I rang my parents up, I moved back in with my parents.  I went out with some old mates from school and got incredibly drunk for a couple of nights. Wendy Harris: Ratted. Peter Howard: Absolutely twisted and it was the world's and his dog's fault.  None of it was my fault, I blamed everybody.  I was angry. Wendy Harris: Trying to just understand what had happened. Peter Howard: Absolutely, yeah.  Then after I think a couple of days after the Christmas period, I thought, "Okay, that's enough of that.  You've licked your wounds, you've been angry, you've shouted a few people and you've got it out of your system.  You've now got to recognise that you're in that horrible place, you've got a lot of debt".  There are PG debts, which I then discovered that when you've got a personal guarantee on something, whoever you owe the money to, can choose -- how many people have signed that document, they can choose whoever they want to come to for the money. So, being as my then business partner had gone abroad, I didn't see him for years, I don't know where he went but he disappeared.  Effectively, the banks, the only place that they could get any money from was me, because I had an address, and I had a postcode, and I wasn't hiding.  Ultimately, I ended up sorting the banks out and paying them off. Now, you might think, "Well, if you've got nothing how can you afford that?"  The amount of monies involved here was knocking on the door of £100,000 in total. Wendy Harris: In 1991 was a lot of money. Peter Howard: This was January 1992, so January 1992 the whole pain came out.  It is Christmas 1991/January 1992.  So, £100,000; £60,000 of it was PGs, it was a mind focuser.  So, the pivotal moment, we get to it through all this preamble, I had a decision to make in January 1992 and the decision was really simple and the only way I could do this was to think about it like a junction in a road.  I'd got to a T-junction and I could either go left or right. It was go and get a job; and if I went and got a job, which I didn't think was going to be a problem, because I felt that I was good enough to get a job, so if I was going to get a job, I'd be paying off that debt probably until now, because that was the equivalent to one-and-a-half, two houses.  Yeah, it's lot of money.  It was more than my first house which I bought six years afterwards.  So that was one choice, turn right, go and get a job pay it off the rest of your life. Turn left, try and learn how to run a business.  Try and do it and then -- Wendy Harris: I don't mean to laugh, Pete, because I know you're still trying. Peter Howard: I know, I know.  One of these days I'll work it out how the hell you're supposed to do it.  I don't know when that's going to be but -- so I thought, "How difficult can it be?"  I suppose because of blind ignorance and not having a fat lot of choice, I thought, "I'll do it".  My brain said, "If you go left and try running a business, if it fails go and get a job", so there was always a get out clause. Wendy Harris: Yes, you got a plan B, yeah. Peter Howard: Yeah, I tried to learn how to write a proposal, learn how to write a quotation, learn how to do stuff.  Doing the work wasn't a problem to be honest, because that's what our partnership was.  He went and got it and I did it.  So, doing it was no issue, it was the going and getting it and working out the business matters. So, I went round, and I spoke to all the suppliers.  I did a deal with every supplier that was owed money.  I said, "Look, I know I don't have to pay you but because trust and honour and reputation are vitally important, I'm going to".  So, we worked out a process where I'd do X amount of work for X amount of money that would knock off the debt; and ultimately when the debt's gone, with all these suppliers, they would still give me work and it would then turn into a better structure. I did deals with the banks to pay it off, and without boring you with all the details, I started PHd late January 1992.  Six years almost to the day after I started it, I can remember cracking open a bottle of champagne, with my then girlfriend who's now my wife, in our first house going, "That's it.  It's done".  The last bit of the debt was paid off and it was almost six years, so it took a long time and a lot of grief and a lot of graft, but reputation was completely intact, all debts paid and move onto the next chapter of PHd.  So pivotal moment; Christmas 1991. Wendy Harris: High ten to you, Pete.  I don't know why I don't know that story.  Perhaps it was because I needed to hear it today. Peter Howard: Maybe, I don't broadcast it; basically most people don't want to go, "Yeah, whatever". Wendy Harris: Thank you. Peter Howard: I've got nothing to hide by it, but it's not the sort of thing I normally broadcast, there you go.  I'm surprised you don't know actually because we have had quite a few chats, so there you go. Wendy Harris: Yes, I know we've talked about lots of things on lots of different deep levels that sometimes has got absolutely nothing to do with work and more about the life and the universe and our navel, but it's incredible really when you consider £100,000 in six years and to live, because that's the other element, isn't it?  You're not working that off and working for free and somebody else is covering your arse, let's be frank. Peter Howard: Well, I have to say my parents were amazing because they said, "No problem, come back", and I moved into my old room back at home.  So, I would be 26-ish at the time, and they said, "No problem".  My mum said, "Don't worry about paying us board so to speak or keep, do it when you can", which was brilliant.  So, I did when I could, but they were incredibly supportive, absolutely brilliant.  I couldn't have asked for better.  That massively helped. My first car I bought it off my dad.  I bought my dad's old, and some of your listeners may not even know what the hell one of these things is, but an old Datsun Stanza.  Datsun is the name that Nissan used to be called for anybody out there who doesn't know.  An old Datsun Stanza I bought off him for £300 and paid it off bit by bit, but it was a massive help.  So, I didn't do it alone, I did it with parental help. Wendy Harris: I think the other point that I just want to quickly touch on is that at that crossroads, when you could have gone left or right -- Peter Howard: Yeah. Wendy Harris: -- "After everything that I've just been through, I really don't want any more hassle, I'm just going to get on with it, keep my head down, once bitten I'm not going to get bitten again". Peter Howard: Yeah. Wendy Harris: Yet you decided to go with the, "I'm going to give this a try myself and you're nailing it and still nailing it". Peter Howard: Well, it's 29 years now we've been going, so I think the phrase is, "We're probably over the worst". Wendy Harris: Yeah, do you think? Peter Howard: Yeah, we must be doing something right because people keep coming back and we've won certain statuses within the industry, so we are recognised as actually good at what we do.  That is just born out by just being really open and honest. Coming back to this whole conversation situation, it doesn't matter who you are, if you can articulate what you need to solve.  If you're a client and you can articulate what you need to do, and if you're working with somebody who can understand that and articulate how they're going to help you solve it, all by the power of conversation, then it can happen. Wendy Harris: What I would like to say just as a final observation is that I hear you sometimes on your mobile phone and I know that you're following up a quote or that you're in the middle of a job for somebody, and you go, "Oh hello, so and so, yeah and we're doing this, and did you do that, and did you do the other?  Tell me what happened".  Then at the end you think, "Oh we've been on the phone quite a while I'd better go", and then you go, "Yes, that is why I rang you.  Oh, you want me to do that, okay".  So, you do ring -- you've just phoned auntie, your nephew, your best made down the pub and you kind of forget that you're working. Peter Howard: Weirdly enough I do say to people at work, if I'm going out and I'm talking to a customer and I'm sitting in front of somebody, whether they're a potentially new customer or a customer we've had for donkey's years, sitting there and chewing the fat and really getting a strong relationship going with them just by chatting, it doesn't feel like work, I do feel like I'm cheating sometimes, but that's what it's all about because everybody likes to be able to know who they're dealing with and trust them. Yesterday, I won't say who, but I was with a client yesterday morning and I dropped in to drop some bits and bobs off that they're ordered, and I was in Birmingham, so it was easier for me to do it; so I dropped in.  45 minutes later, rather than just drop it off, "Thanks very much", 45 minutes later, two coffees and a biscuit later, they'd started talking about some other things and I knew that the one lady had a fantastic holiday that had been cancelled for three times; I knew that the MD there wants another motorbike, and the particular motorbike that he's talking about wanting, I know someone who's got one, not that they're selling it, but I was able to have a conversation about that.  Personally, I think motorbikes are death traps, but that's only because I've been on a motorbike three times in my life and I've fallen off three times in my life, so, there's a message there. Wendy Harris: Average there, yeah. Peter Howard: I haven't got a pretty good hit rate there, but we could have just a conversation and the amount we laughed while we were talking was brilliant.  But it welds us together, it cements us together so we're going to carry on doing business hopefully for the next 20 years.  We've been dealing with them for 20 years already and I hope it carries on for another 20 and it's just because we get on and we like each other. Wendy Harris: It's the right kind of infectious. Peter Howard: Yeah. Wendy Harris: Thank you so much for agreeing to come on the show today, it's been just lovely to chat to you. Peter Howard: Or in the words of Vinnie Jones, it's been emotional. Wendy Harris: If anybody wants to pick up the conversation with you, Pete, about anything that we've talked about today, where's the best place for them to find you? Peter Howard: You can either ring the office, which is 01543 473191 or look on our website which is easily named as PHddesign.co.uk, that's with two d's in the middle; or email me, which is again really challenging email this so get your pens and papers ready, peter@phddesign.co.uk.  Nice to keep things simple. Wendy Harris: We will make sure that we put the details in the show notes for you, brilliant.  Thank you, Peter, it's been wonderful.  To our listeners please do send us your feedback and comments, we do love receiving all of those that we've been looking at recently and make sure you share this with your friends and family that need to be introduced to Peter.  Make sure you subscribe; the channel address is, as always www.makingconversationscount.studio/podcast. That's all from me, and Maud and Peter.

I have the pleasure of interviewing Arn Terry and we cover lots of topics in this Part 1 interview! Back in 2008 when we went through a Global Recession, I was NOT READY and I nearly lost everything!!!!! I was distracted but for good reason..... 2005 bought my first house with my fiancee.... 2007 married my fiancee with a honeymoon to Excellence Rivera, Cancun...... (all on LOANS!!!) I was so happy and on cloud 9, my childhood sweetheart and I married and ready to begin our lives together, what could go wrong...... Then onto 2008 my daughter was born in July, one of the best moments in my life to date, first born and a complete new experience and a little person so devoted to me, this was all happening right in the middle of the 2008 global crisis, I was a Recruitment Consultant at the time and just landed some large clients one being Perot Systems (basically they where a competitor to IBM) Money was stilling coming in, I bought a nearly new Audi A4 2.4 S-Line like you do..... then BANG! Everything stopped.... one of my clients was Bear Stearns who was a global investment bank then like dominoes my clients was disappearing one by one, I worked harder and longer hours but it just did not help, if companies are not recruiting then you can't do anything about it... Feeling alone, tired and failing fast with my debts rising I did the only thing I knew and followed the majority.... So at the back end of the 2008 I took a job at Tesco Supermarket (Thurs - Sun) as an additional job to bring in more money due to difficult times..... so this meant on Thurs and Friday starting my recruitment job at 08:15 finishing at 6ish then straight to Tesco for 4 hours of more work......... Saturday would be a 10am to 7pm and working a Sunday 10 to 4pm.... That is the definition of crazy to me! But I did not know any better.....No time with my wife or my baby girl... but I had to provide for my family and keep going because we had bills to pay...(Wedding and honeymoon was on a LOAN) I sold my car and bought a banger............................... this was an easy decision but sooooo difficult for me as I thought I deserved a nice car because I was working hard but instead I was gathering more liabilities taking more money out of my pocket... The Car that I bought, all the electrics failed so I had no indicators, the wipers failed and stopped working the engine made a loud knocking sound and my speedometer did not even work so I had to view the revs to guesstimate the speed I was travelling, embarrassment, shame disappointment, failure feeling sorry for myself was all the emotions I was feeling and going through..How did this happen to me. I made it through the tough times with that part time job and full time job and deiced that I can't put my family and myself through that situation again........but failed over the years............... time and time again at different business ideas, I did not want to be in the same situation again from 2008 after multiple setbacks to find a side business that would pay me more than my normal working day....... I think I have found the solution and answer==============> I invested my time and money to learn about making money online by using social media so when the Virus crisis happened in 2020 I was ready FOR IT

We recently got a chance to drive the 2021 Genesis G80 at our test track, and we share our impressions on how the sedan from Hyundai's luxury brand performed, as well as how it compares to other vehicles in its class, like the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and Volvo S90. Filling your tires with nitrogen is an option offered by many dealerships and mechanics these days, usually for an added expense. We talk about whether this is something to consider, as well as if it's safe to put regular air into a tire filled with nitrogen. Winter weather is on its way (if it hasn't already arrived where you are!), so we discuss the best way to prep your car for hitting the road when there's ice and snow. We also give advice about replacing a Hyundai Elantra with an Audi A4 (or other alternatives like the Mazda3, Honda Civic Sport, or Toyota Camry?!) And with an increasing number of cars on the road having the ability to update their software, how is Consumer Reports adjusting its testing program to stay on top of the latest versions and features? Do the scores change when a car with GM's Super Cruise or vehicles from Tesla receive a new update? We discuss how we are adapting our testing to account for these new technologies, and more.     -----------------------------------   Have a question for our experts?

We touch on a number of topics this week, including if a used Subaru Ascent is a good replacement for an Audi A4, why your infotainment system might not play nice with your Apple iPhone or Android phone, the right way to tie down an object to your roof, and how Consumer Reports headlight testing differs from that of IIHS. We also discuss routine maintenance that is unique to EVs, why an automatic emergency braking system might give a driver false positives, how car designs might be affected with a move to "skateboard" or modular architectures, using a child seat with an inflatable seat belt, and why you might not be able to tow a hybrid vehicle behind your RV.     -----------------------------------   Have a question for our experts?

We recently completed testing on the 2020 Cadillac CT4 luxury sedan, and we discuss how it compares to the Audi A4, Genesis G70, and its sister sedan, the Cadillac CT5. Staying with the Cadillac, the GM's luxury brand recently made headlines with the unveiling of its all-electric Lyriq concept SUV; we talk about the rocky history of electric cars at General Motors, the interesting platform the Lyriq will be based on, and how this car will compete with Tesla's offerings. We also answer questions about fun alternatives to the Hyundai Palisade, how electric truck maker Rivian is stepping up the battery game, tips for snowbirds to maintain their Mazda Miata and Mazda3,  and whether it is a good idea to use a padded seat belt cover.     -----------------------------------   Have a question for our experts?

There's some solid news this week. Audi plans to offer an extremely limited run of manual transmission Audi A4 sedans. These will be designated as Ultrasport models and only 40 will be built. Jeep is launching its first limited-edition JL Wrangler with the new Moab Edition. Formula E wants an off-road racing series and will call it Extreme E. Finally, DriveTribe is a black hole for cash. After slogging through the news it is on to your questions before diving into what's going on with us. That includes a trip to Yosemite with the Audi S5 Sportback, getting my Benz fixed, and being hopefully that The Wombat will start on its new path beginning next week. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/hooniverse/support

In Podcast 152, John Davis is back at the helm. First, some notes on Alfa Romeo's second big entry, the Giulia sedan. Then, some quick notes on the Nissan Sentra, and the latest Audi A4. The lightning round covers GM's SuperCruis
