Steven is joined once more by renowned car dealer and entrepreneur Tom Hartley for a deep dive into his journey and insights. They discuss Hartley's experiences with dyslexia and ADHD, and he shares how these challenges have shaped his success and his commitment to mentoring young people in schools. The conversation also touches on Tom's impressive accolades, including his induction into the Motoring Hall of Fame and his bestselling autobiography, "The Dealmaker." They explore the evolution of the luxury car market, Tom's unique approach to business, and the importance of building a strong brand. Key Takeaways You must have resilience, particularly in overcoming setbacks such as bankruptcy. Tom views these experiences as valuable lessons that contribute to personal and professional growth. Tom underscores the distinction between a good business and a strong brand, emphasising the importance of reputation, trust, and relationships in establishing a recognisable brand in the luxury car market. Despite economic fluctuations, there are always opportunities for success. Hard work and adaptability are crucial, and effort and tenacity can lead to success regardless of external circumstances. Confidentiality is everything when you're dealing with high profile clients, and personalised service matters greatly in building lasting relationships in the luxury car industry. BEST MOMENTS "I think dyslexic is a gift that people can take and make advantage of. I think they're very strong-minded personalities... the biggest percentage of entrepreneurs, billionaires and very successful people are all dyslexic." "I told my story... I wanted my grandchildren to know what my history was, and how I grew up, and what I come from." "You're a brand" "If you're prepared to get your ass out of bed in the morning and not be a lazy bastard, it's achievable." VALUABLE RESOURCES The Steven Sulley Study https://www.instagram.com/tomhartleycars/ ABOUT THE HOST The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn’t be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made successes in life, and also made huge cock-ups, I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful, or at least start your pursuit. My ‘Study’ has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception of, successful people - and I know a lot of successful people from all walks of life. My ‘Study’ coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well-rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.

Someone asked me recently what was my biggest annoyance with many newcars today. Without doubt the biggest negative with many new models is theplethora of warning and driver monitoring systems that nearly drive you crazy.Drive any new Chinese made car and it features a range of safety systems thatwarn you via various chimes that you’ve taken your eyes off the road, movedslightly out of your lane or exceeded the speed limit. Its overdone and in manynew models very poorly calibrated and set for driving conditions that are morethe norm in congested Asian cities. And unfortunately, they can’t be deleted onthe run, the only way to get rid of them is to re-set them at every start. Hyundaiand Kia similarly have excessive warning chimes and frankly they’recounterproductive to good driving practice and become a major disruption toconcentration.

Rob is joined again by supercar dealer Carl Hartley. Carl reveals the luxury car industry's biggest scams, manufacturer manipulation, and insider secrets. From exposing dealership malpractices to sharing his controversial views on electric cars and the Jaguar rebrand disaster, Carl holds nothing back. He also talks about how he sold 14 cars in one day, shares the story behind his viral police meme, and explains why he'll never sell a Lotus! Carl Hartley REVEALS: Why the electric car revolution is "the biggest scam in the car industry," with Carl explaining why the 2030 target is unrealistic and why infrastructure will never support it. Why manufacturers are increasingly trying to cut out grey market dealers by pricing cars higher initially, changing the industry dynamics. How some dealerships abuse sale-or-return arrangements, secretly using client cars and covering up accidents. That car insurance is essentially a cartel, forcing owners into unfair arrangements and penalising them for others' mistakes. How prestigious brands like Ferrari maintain their exclusivity through deliberate customer selection and strict control measures. Why limited editions aren't always what they seem, manufacturers often create artificial scarcity through marketing rather than genuine rarity. BEST MOMENTS "I had three of the most deadly cars in the world - the Carrera GT, the F40, and the P1. This car drives like you've smacked its kids and shagged its wife." "When you look pro rata, cars have gone up a disgusting amount in what, one new model. Range Rover is the best example in the world. They've literally gone up 70 percent from one model to another." "Look at all the racing drivers that have had motorsport success in Jaguars and the great cars. Steve McQueen used to own Jaguars. The coolest person to ever walk the earth. And now look what they've done." "Money's hard enough to earn and sometimes it's not fun. So when you want to spend it, you want to have fun spending it." "I get more sceptical of someone who walks in with their Dolce Gabbana suit on and their shiny shoes than someone who just walks in dressed casual."

Is Europe's car industry at a crossroads?

The Inquiry

The car industry across the European Union employs over thirteen million people, both directly and indirectly, that's around six percent of the bloc's workforce. But in recent years, Europe's manufacturers have been struggling to cope with issues like economic downturns, clean energy requirements and the digital revolution. Some of the oldest, biggest carmakers are considering plant closures and job cuts in order to try and stay afloat. They are also facing fierce competition in the electric vehicle market from China, who have taken a lead in producing cars that are much more competitively priced and equipped with much more sophisticated technology. China's own economy has been flagging, so the EU provides it with its largest overseas market in terms of the electric car industry. But now, in a bid to protect their own car industry, the EU has introduced tariffs on electric cars made in China. These tariffs are set to rise from ten percent up to forty five percent for the next five years. Beijing has condemned them as protectionist and there are concerns that it could spark a trade war between Brussels and Beijing. So, on this week's Inquiry, we're asking ‘Is Europe's car industry at a crossroads?'

China signs billion-dollar deal for car factory in Turkey

China's car giant BYD's announcement to build a billion-dollar factory in Turkey represents a significant turnaround in bilateral relations. However, concerns persist regarding human rights issues and Turkey's stance on the Chinese Muslim Uyghur community. In a ceremony attended by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, China's BYD car company signed an agreement to build a billion-dollar factory in Turkey.The factory will produce 150,000 vehicles annually, mainly for the European Union market.Analysts say the July deal marks a turning point in Turkish-Chinese relations."The significance of this deal is Turkey would be considered as a transition country between China and the EU," Sibel Karabel, director of the Asia Pacific department of Istanbul's Gedik University told RFI.  "This deal has the potential to reduce the trade imbalance, the trade deficit, which is a detriment to Turkey," he adds, "Turkey also wants to reap the benefits of China's cutting-edge technologies by collaborating with China."Sidestepping tariffsChina's pivot towards Turkey, a NATO member, is also about Beijing's increasing competition for global influence, especially with the United States.  Karabel says the planned BYD factory offers a way for China to avoid the EU's new tariffs on vehicles.Turkey is already a part of China's global investment strategy through its Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and Beijing has shown interest in Turkey becoming a trade route from China to Europe through Ankara's Middle Corridor Intiative.But until now, such collaborations have until been just empty words, claims Ceren Ergenc a China specialist at the Centre for European Policy Studies.  Turkey set on rebuilding bridges with China to improve trade"When you look at the press statements after meetings, you don't see Chinese investments in Turkey, and the reason for that is because China perceives Turkey as a high political risk country in the region," Ergenc explains.One of the main factors widely cited for Beijing's reluctance to invest in Turkey is Ankara's strong support of China's Muslim Uyghur minority.Ankara has been critical of Beijing's crackdown on Uyghurs, offering refuge to many Uyghur dissidents. Their Turkish supporters fear Beijing's billion-dollar investment in Turkey could be part of an extradition deal struck during Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan's recent visit to China."There are rumors, of course, that the Chinese side is pressing for the ratification of this extradition agreement, that they would want Uyghurs in Turkey, some of them at least, to be returned to China to be tried in China," warns Cagdas Ungor of Istanbul's Marmara University, referring to people China considers to be dissidents or "terrorists".Common ground over GazaElsewhere, Ankara and Beijing are finding increasing diplomatic common ground, including criticism of Israel's war on Hamas."If you take, for instance, the Gaza issue right now, Turkey and China, and even without trying," observes Ungor, "they see eye to eye on this issue. Their foreign policies align, overlap, and their policy becomes very much different from most of the other Western countries."Carmakers unhappy after EU hits China with tariffs on electric vehiclesFor example, Ankara welcomed last month's decision by Beijing to host Palestinian leaders amid an escalation of threats and bombardment by Israel.Such a move can provide common ground, Ungor suggests, and this could be the basis for future cooperation."There are certain issues at a global level, at the regional level, that China seems to be a much better partner(to Turkey) than the Western countries," he concludes.

In this episode, Marshall and Nick discuss various car-related news and trends. They talk about the release of the new ZR1 Corvette after six years, Kia's announcement of their first truck called the Tasmanian, the decline of mini trucks in the market, the race for the fastest electric vehicle, the drop in resale value of electric cars, and the changing models of the Toyota 4Runner. They also touch on inflation and the increasing prices of goods. In this conversation, Nick and Marshall discuss the current state of the car market, focusing on the Toyota 4Runner and the pricing and value of new vehicles. They explore the cramped interior of the 4Runner, the high price point of Toyota SUVs, and the comparison between Toyota and Lexus. They also touch on the trend of overlanding vehicles and the misconception that many owners actually take their vehicles off-road. The conversation concludes with a discussion on why people are buying fewer new cars, including issues with redesigns, high prices, and a disconnect between car manufacturers and car enthusiasts. Takeaways Chevy is releasing the new ZR1 Corvette after six years, creating excitement among Corvette enthusiasts. Kia is entering the truck market with their first truck called the Tasmanian. The mini truck market is making a comeback, especially in Texas, where many trucks from Asian countries are now legally importable. The race for the fastest electric vehicle is ongoing, with Porsche claiming to have the fastest EV with their new model. The resale value of electric cars is dropping, making them a good value for used car buyers. The Toyota 4Runner has undergone many changes and now offers nine different trim packages, confusing potential buyers. Inflation is causing the prices of goods, including gas, to increase. The car industry is constantly evolving, with new models and trends emerging. The Toyota 4Runner has a cramped interior and a high price point, making it less appealing to taller individuals and those seeking a more luxurious experience. Toyota SUVs are priced similarly to Lexus models, making it more advantageous to purchase a used Lexus with low mileage for a better overall experience. The trend of overlanding vehicles is often overhyped, as most owners do not actually take their vehicles off-road. Car manufacturers are losing touch with car enthusiasts and are prioritizing their brand image over the needs and desires of their customers. The high prices of new cars, coupled with issues with redesigns and a lack of significant improvements, are leading consumers to hold onto their current vehicles or seek alternatives.

Buying a car used to be about two things: style and performance. But as motorists trade in their petrol or diesel cars for electric vehicles, manufacturers are increasingly focusing on experience by adding features like karaoke machines and mood lighting. Those drivers also have a lot more choices. The ditching of internal combustion engines in favour of battery-power has allowed new car makers to enter the market. But rather than thinking like BMW or Ford, they are looking to firms like Apple for their inspiration.On this week's podcast, hosts Mike Bird, Alice Fulwood and Tom Lee-Devlin examine the remaking of the auto industry. The Economist's Simon Wright explains that software, rather than hardware, will define car brands in the future. Henrik Fisker, the founder of one of those new brands, tells them that a history of making petrol-powered cars doesn't necessarily qualify established car makers to make electric vehicles. And advisor Tu Le explains why Western car makers are worried about competition from China.Sign up for our new weekly newsletter dissecting the big themes in markets, business and the economy at www.economist.com/moneytalks For full access to print, digital and audio editions, subscribe to The Economist at www.economist.com/podcastoffer Hosted on Acast.
