00:00:17.971 --> 00:00:20.471
[engine revs]

3
00:00:31.781 --> 00:00:33.868
I can't see nothing out the back.

4
00:00:33.868 --> 00:00:36.901
<v Ron>That's, wow, good luck.</v>

5
00:00:36.901 --> 00:00:38.850
You need a 24/7 reverse cam.

6
00:00:38.850 --> 00:00:40.370
<v Jonathan>Except, I think, that probably</v>

7
00:00:40.370 --> 00:00:41.661
falls foul at the law that says

8
00:00:41.661 --> 00:00:43.640
you can't have an active display

9
00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:44.909
whilst the driver is.

10
00:00:44.909 --> 00:00:45.742
<v Ron>Right, yeah, right.</v>

11
00:00:45.742 --> 00:00:46.781
<v Jonathan>Yeah, in the days before reversing cameras,</v>

12
00:00:46.781 --> 00:00:48.920
the way you used to have to park these cars,

13
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.269
was you'd open the door and then just sit

14
00:00:51.269 --> 00:00:53.930
on the sill and lean out the back

15
00:00:53.930 --> 00:00:56.180
and try and do it that way.

16
00:00:57.320 --> 00:00:58.249
<v ->Wow.</v>

17
00:00:58.249 --> 00:00:59.222
<v ->The advent of reversing cameras</v>

18
00:00:59.222 --> 00:01:02.643
has been very useful for these kind of cars.

19
00:01:02.643 --> 00:01:03.854
<v Ron>Yeah, so how is your visibility</v>

20
00:01:03.854 --> 00:01:05.590
when you're driving around?

21
00:01:05.590 --> 00:01:06.902
<v ->Out the front is great.</v>

22
00:01:06.902 --> 00:01:08.870
That mirror there is, basically, useless.

23
00:01:08.870 --> 00:01:10.640
The wing mirrors are pretty good.

24
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:12.039
<v ->Is this really for my window?</v>

25
00:01:12.039 --> 00:01:13.268
<v ->Yes, that's your window control.</v>

26
00:01:13.268 --> 00:01:15.760
This one raises and lowers the front

27
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:19.080
so you can get over speed bumps.

28
00:01:19.080 --> 00:01:19.913
Right now you can see there.

29
00:01:19.913 --> 00:01:24.378
So yeah, otherwise, it has no ground clearance.

30
00:01:24.378 --> 00:01:27.091
And confusingly, the indicator button

31
00:01:27.091 --> 00:01:30.731
is not a stalk, it's a little switch here.

32
00:01:30.731 --> 00:01:31.851
<v Ron>Oh my gosh.</v>

33
00:01:31.851 --> 00:01:33.211
<v Jonathan>Yeah, so that's gonna be.</v>

34
00:01:33.211 --> 00:01:34.599
<v ->The turn signal is a little button.</v>

35
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:35.457
<v ->Yep, that's the turn signal.</v>

36
00:01:35.457 --> 00:01:37.316
<v ->I'd never get used to that ever.</v>

37
00:01:37.316 --> 00:01:38.625
<v ->So Ferrari started doing that.</v>

38
00:01:38.625 --> 00:01:39.617
Ferrari put all their controls

39
00:01:39.617 --> 00:01:40.450
on the steering wheel.

40
00:01:40.450 --> 00:01:45.325
<v ->Right, I an see the completely, completely useless</v>

41
00:01:45.325 --> 00:01:49.016
sun visor here with the world's tiniest mirror.

42
00:01:49.016 --> 00:01:49.849
<v Jonathan>The idea is, presumably,</v>

43
00:01:49.849 --> 00:01:51.185
it's for your wife or mistress to be able

44
00:01:51.185 --> 00:01:52.177
to put her lipstick on.

45
00:01:52.177 --> 00:01:53.010
<v Ron>Right.</v>

46
00:01:53.010 --> 00:01:55.939
<v Jonathan>You have to have these guards on them</v>

47
00:01:55.939 --> 00:01:57.103
so there's something to stop you

48
00:01:57.103 --> 00:01:59.436
hitting them in an accident.

49
00:02:01.003 --> 00:02:03.751
[lively music]

50
00:02:03.751 --> 00:02:04.584
There's not a massive amount

51
00:02:04.584 --> 00:02:06.895
of storage space in this car.

52
00:02:06.895 --> 00:02:07.994
You've got these little door bins.

53
00:02:07.994 --> 00:02:08.827
<v ->Yeah.</v>

54
00:02:10.895 --> 00:02:12.474
<v Jonathan>I do, quite, like this leather.</v>

55
00:02:12.474 --> 00:02:13.342
<v Ron>It's really nice, yeah.</v>

56
00:02:13.342 --> 00:02:14.882
<v Jonathan>This brown leather, yeah.</v>

57
00:02:14.882 --> 00:02:17.829
Sitting in it, you feel like it's an event.

58
00:02:17.829 --> 00:02:19.351
The car has drama.

59
00:02:19.351 --> 00:02:20.810
But most of it's in Italian.

60
00:02:20.810 --> 00:02:24.722
So for example, all the gauges here are in Italian.

61
00:02:24.722 --> 00:02:27.639
And it says Benzina instead of gas.

62
00:02:28.930 --> 00:02:31.268
It's Temp. Acqua instead of water temperature.

63
00:02:31.268 --> 00:02:32.468
So Strada's street mode and that has

64
00:02:32.468 --> 00:02:35.879
the most traction control, the most stability control.

65
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.022
It's a dual clutch gear box so,

66
00:02:38.022 --> 00:02:39.479
I guess, if it's in street mode,

67
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:42.031
it will shift automatically.

68
00:02:42.031 --> 00:02:43.631
[lively music]

69
00:02:43.631 --> 00:02:44.671
But there's some lovely lines on it.

70
00:02:44.671 --> 00:02:48.159
It's a much better design than the old Fiat.

71
00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:52.326
I think with this [mumbles] they did a good job.

72
00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:56.399
A naturally aspirated V10.

73
00:02:56.399 --> 00:03:00.780
Revs to eight and a 1/2 thousand.

74
00:03:00.780 --> 00:03:04.380
The engine is made in Hungary, I believe.

75
00:03:04.380 --> 00:03:07.889
And then the rest of the car, presumably, in Italy.

76
00:03:07.889 --> 00:03:10.318
In sixth gear, it's not that noisy.

77
00:03:10.318 --> 00:03:12.337
<v Ron>No it's not, no it's nice.</v>

78
00:03:12.337 --> 00:03:14.340
<v ->We're doing just over 2,000 RPM.</v>

79
00:03:14.340 --> 00:03:15.173
Where is the speedo?

80
00:03:15.173 --> 00:03:17.156
Oh, there's the speedo.

81
00:03:17.156 --> 00:03:19.552
If I touch the gas, it goes down

82
00:03:19.552 --> 00:03:21.212
to 10 mile to the gallon.

83
00:03:21.212 --> 00:03:22.471
<v Ron>Oh my gosh.</v>

84
00:03:22.471 --> 00:03:24.473
[engine revs]

85
00:03:24.473 --> 00:03:26.652
4.6 miles per gallon.

86
00:03:26.652 --> 00:03:28.862
<v ->[laughs] That is even better</v>

87
00:03:28.862 --> 00:03:31.062
than the Audi did right before that.

88
00:03:31.062 --> 00:03:32.161
Or even worse, I suppose.

89
00:03:32.161 --> 00:03:35.462
[lively music]

90
00:03:35.462 --> 00:03:37.672
<v Ron>So there's just no dials on this car whatsoever?</v>

91
00:03:37.672 --> 00:03:39.150
<v Jonathan>Nope, it's all digital.</v>

92
00:03:39.150 --> 00:03:41.319
<v Ron>All big, giant LCD?</v>

93
00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:42.561
<v Jonathan>So, apparently, it has</v>

94
00:03:42.561 --> 00:03:45.531
a whole bunch of accelerometers

95
00:03:45.531 --> 00:03:47.513
so it's measuring all different axis.

96
00:03:47.513 --> 00:03:50.591
<v ->So there's accelerometers in [mumbles] body roll.</v>

97
00:03:50.591 --> 00:03:51.424
<v ->Yeah.</v>

98
00:03:51.424 --> 00:03:52.257
<v ->And then it what?</v>

99
00:03:52.257 --> 00:03:53.890
Stiffens up suspension on that side?

100
00:03:53.890 --> 00:03:54.723
<v ->Yes.</v>

101
00:03:54.723 --> 00:03:55.556
<v ->Okay.</v>

102
00:03:55.556 --> 00:03:56.393
<v ->Yes, and it also knows,</v>

103
00:03:56.393 --> 00:03:57.371
for the stability control,

104
00:03:57.371 --> 00:04:01.371
if it needs to cut power to anyone of the wheels

105
00:04:01.371 --> 00:04:02.204
if it's starting to slip.

106
00:04:02.204 --> 00:04:03.862
<v ->Okay.</v>

107
00:04:03.862 --> 00:04:05.113
<v Jonathan>Let's make it a little louder.</v>

108
00:04:05.113 --> 00:04:05.946
<v Ron>Oh no.</v>

109
00:04:05.946 --> 00:04:06.779
[engine revs]

110
00:04:06.779 --> 00:04:09.196
He's moved it down to sports.

111
00:04:12.121 --> 00:04:14.590
[engine revs]

112
00:04:14.590 --> 00:04:17.250
<v ->Okay, so in sports, It'll still do automatic.</v>

113
00:04:17.250 --> 00:04:20.601
I guess it's just if you go into courser.

114
00:04:20.601 --> 00:04:23.101
[engine revs]

115
00:04:26.548 --> 00:04:29.563
I think it's also changing the [mumbles] mapping.

116
00:04:29.563 --> 00:04:32.371
Certainly the gears will change faster

117
00:04:32.371 --> 00:04:34.082
in some of those modes, I think.

118
00:04:34.082 --> 00:04:36.082
It'll hold on to the gear longer

119
00:04:36.082 --> 00:04:37.651
and you get much more engine breaking.

120
00:04:37.651 --> 00:04:39.105
It's like, when you lift off,

121
00:04:39.105 --> 00:04:40.430
the car slows a lot more.

122
00:04:40.430 --> 00:04:43.471
Where as, in normal it'll coast.

123
00:04:43.471 --> 00:04:46.705
The right control over these crappy surfaces

124
00:04:46.705 --> 00:04:48.134
is not too bad.

125
00:04:48.134 --> 00:04:52.153
Yeah, it feels like there's almost no body roll.

126
00:04:52.153 --> 00:04:54.683
These pedals are wild, they're enormous.

127
00:04:54.683 --> 00:04:58.544
Quiet often, they're usually, they're about 1/2 this size.

128
00:04:58.544 --> 00:05:00.624
Then with tires as fat as they are,

129
00:05:00.624 --> 00:05:01.894
the steering lets you know that you need

130
00:05:01.894 --> 00:05:03.243
to work it a little bit.

131
00:05:03.243 --> 00:05:04.654
It's not feather light.

132
00:05:04.654 --> 00:05:07.154
[engine revs]

133
00:05:12.332 --> 00:05:13.264
It's not, actually, as fast as I

134
00:05:13.264 --> 00:05:15.206
was expecting it to be.

135
00:05:15.206 --> 00:05:17.363
<v ->What speed did you just go to?</v>

136
00:05:17.363 --> 00:05:20.008
<v ->We only got up to 52.</v>

137
00:05:20.008 --> 00:05:21.520
It does sound like the end of the world.

138
00:05:21.520 --> 00:05:22.760
<v Ron>[laughs] It does.</v>

139
00:05:22.760 --> 00:05:25.400
<v ->When you get up to 7,000 RPMs.</v>

00:05:26.233 --> 00:05:27.150
<v ->Wow, wow.</v>

142
00:05:30.409 --> 00:05:31.809
<v Jonathan>The brakes, on this thing, are great.</v>

143
00:05:31.809 --> 00:05:32.867
<v Ron>Yeah.</v>

144
00:05:32.867 --> 00:05:33.700
They're enormous.

145
00:05:33.700 --> 00:05:35.334
The brakes, are probably bigger

146
00:05:35.334 --> 00:05:38.251
than the actual wheels on my Miata.

147
00:05:39.454 --> 00:05:40.494
The thing is, this car will corner

148
00:05:40.494 --> 00:05:43.272
so much faster than is legal.

You're just tired of work one day
