Hi all, can we remember this video is about Doug DeMuro's DS video, not Doug DeMuro the man? Appreciate the engagement and enjoying the chat so far :_upndown::_clement:

Doug Demouro is the kind of guy to wake everyone up to let them know he’s going to bed

This is of course the guy that said that the stereo in the Clio V6 beeps whenever you press a button. Nevermind the fact that you couldn't actually listen to anything on it, and the reason for the beeps was because it was asking for its security code...

“Quirks and features” is basically his catchphrase though…

Doug makes any car quirky just by standing next to it

I'm a Frenchman, I had watched Demouro's video before and loved watching yours where I actually learnt new facts (like the braking getting more "fierce" as the passenger load increases). I'm so envious that you actually own an SM!!! I have always LOVED this car. Congratulations to you!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtxTOoSQ8Gc&t=2070">34:30</a> - "shifting gears on the column". I remember the Yanks still had column change cars in the 90s - Ford Taurus, anyone?

Now a proper US car guy is Jay Leno and he knows about French cars.

You did well to watch a Doug DeMuro video at all

Watched a few of his videos years ago. He does my bloody head in.<br><br>And Cars and Bids is his auction website, so basically just an advert.

Your restraint is admirable and your reactions were absolute gold, very entertaining! <br><br>Doug is basically Cars For Dummies; heart is in the right place but he shoots for mass appeal rather than proper nuts and bolts and, to be fair, does very well out of it. <br><br>I'm fairly certain he's also done a CX video... Go on, you know you want to 😉<br><br>Liked and Hyped (whatever that does).

His scoring system was made with modern sportcars in mind, which were a majority on his channel. Anything that takes longer than 10 seconds 0-100 is pretty much a "1". Same with everything else. There is no sliding scale for older cars. Hope that helps.
