He’s making the profit on merchandise. The food he sells in pub he’s not making profit because of wages and other overheads. Supporting British farmers, creating jobs, he’s a legend. I actually like him more now with the farming show than Top Gear.
@@Wolfman57 no one said he’s losing money. You can break even after expenses. That keeps the cash flow and jobs going. He doesn’t need the profit from the pub, he’s got a few quid in the piggybank. It’s all about supporting farmers and creating jobs.
VOLVO 850...awesome....on the pub...if you dont pay crap wages to exploit foreign staff but pay decent wages to local people to serve really well cooked British sourced good food you have to pay for it...blame the Tories for printing £500billion and Labour for what comes next....
James May’s pub in Swallowcliffe is a great country pub selling excellent food. Guy Richie’s air field is just up the road, you could spend up couple of hours watching light aircraft then a quick sprint up zig zig hill then off to the Royal Oak for lunch
Next time pre book and call in at British Motor Heritage for a look see, Mgb and Mini mk1 body build in production, all the old original tools and jigs still in use, Only 3 miles from Clarcksons Pub.
The Volvo 850 is the last true Swedish Volvo ever made before the Ford penny pinchers took over and eventually sold it to Geely. It has galvanised sheet metal body , hydraulic cam followers and proper thick valve stems (making them last a looooong time.) It is also modern enough to be a safe travel car to use for family duty bcs it has ABS, Side impact protection system (SIPS) and TRACS. NL is a Volvo country. And i see these 850's with 400k to even 500k km on the odometer. I have owned a T5-R. When they first came on the market the lease rate for them was pretty good, so good in fact that company car drivers switched from low spec 5-series beemers to a full spec T5 or T5-R. I bought my T5-R used and privately. The only serious maintenance that i had to have fixed was a leaky rear main seal. That's it! And (back then) it was fast. 240hp. I remember dragracing a Calibra turbo which is way lighter and it couldn't win. I also remember hounding an aircooled 911 Carrera on the German autobahn. Good fun! The only serious design fault on the T5 and T5-R is the size of the front brakes: 285mm diameter. For such a fast and heavy car they were too small! Later the 850R got 10hp more and 305mm front brakes. Better but still not perfect.
Hard Knott pass is a "Did it and survived" type road 33% on the straights and hairpins even steeper... Driven it quite a few times over the years and even cycled up, when I was young and fit...!! 😂
I think we all queued up behind Jeremy once he had hit the producer and this led to the mass abandonment of the bbc. Lucky for us we now have these two leading us astray with a bare minimum of equipment but 110% of quality. For us 7 seven SEVEN YEARS WITHOUT A TV LICENCE. And 18 years with our Almera TINO. Your food outlet could only be one name currently FREE THE SAUSAUGES. David and Lily living in Reading as someone has to. Thanks
Here's a suggestion for you and Lee. Drive through Norway to the Arctic Circle. There should be lots of charging stations for Lee's Toucan and as Norway is big on EV's then they'll hate you
I took a punt on a 2005 d5 euro3 manual 5speed v70 in February, it had very clean mot and service history, 2 previous owners, scuffs all round the bumpers but a fully functional car with 11 months mot, £1000, it did have 199k miles now on 208k without any issues👌 About to do timing belt, tensioner and pulley, aux belt, tensioner pulley, fuel sender, just put new front springs, wishbones, strut top mount and bearing and a ball joint on her, none of it urgent, just addressed things as i found them needing tlc I absolutely love this car, the germans can keep theirs😅 okay maybe I'm partial to a 90s 300td estate but😉 I'm only sad that i don't have more cash and space to save a couple more...I'd love an s80..there's one for sale near me, 70k miles, 8 seat stretched limousine 😂👌
Think you should both visit Simonstone hall in Hawes, Yorkshire. It's where the infamous fracas happened where Clarkson hit the producer. There's also the buttertubs pass which is a fantastic scenic route and you could visit the tan hill pub, the highest (in altitude, not weed) pub in the uk.
Love this episode with the Macmaster. Wide variety of content with the stuffed covered . But best thing you wearing an Aussie t-shirt. Billabong my favourite brand of surfwear being an Aussie and love our surf. You need to one day to Visit Margaret River, Western Australia's captial of surfing only 40 min drive from were I live in Busselton
Eating out is all about food quality not necessarily about fancy bits and bobs just good quality, well cooked nicely presented grub. Good luck to anyone supporting British products.
It takes about 10 minutes to get to the Windmill. There is a speed camera on the A40 before you get there. Don’t worry, I went through it at 125mph long before it was vandalised…Jeremy is trying to do the right thing & for that I applaud him.
Hi Geoff, I once owned an ex-Police Volvo 850 T5R and it's one car I've always regretted selling...😪😪 The five cylinder engine sound is one of the most beautiful engine sound, my first five cylinder was an old 1980 Audi 100 (the old square shaped one) and I fell in love with the sound, it even beats the sound of a V8...😍😍 Andy...
The Mac-Geoff-star!! I'll come look after the braai section for the two of you!!! Afterall - you need a South African to take care of that!! ALL local food - so, how close can you get to the perfect mix... lobster and lamb?? I want to propose a challenge... you need to get a third person involved - in one of your cars... so, set a raffle challenge! Who wins gets to join the pair of you... WHOOPPEE!!!
Clarkson is a top man supporting British farming.👍 Well done opening a pub these days! Would I travel, for me, 1 hour plus, to join a sycophantic queue? No! Maybe if I happen to be passing and no queue and at lunch time?
Geoff and Lee road trip to Les Gets for a ski/snowboard or to enjoy the sun and snow! It is warm in the sun up on the mountain. Give me a shout if you would like any logistics help up here? Great video, all the best, Colin.
Do a road trip called THE LAP and follow the coast right around the coast of the uk :) i recently did the same in australia, but did 3 laps and it took me 3 years lol ;)
I'd like to see the Tie Kan go up Jawbones Hill in Dartmouth! That could be hysterical! Maybe the Farmer's Dog has got to find it's mission? It's a bit like a Collie without a flock of sheep - it will need a charismatic host/ess , roaring fires in the winter, an old dog greeting the patrons - a unique identity...
i drove the hard knott about a month ago, picked the day when i guy in a luton van decided to get stuck on literally the scariest corner of the steepest bit of the road. luckily he was helped by a local in a pickup but what he was doing driving a luton van over that road is anyones guess. its not your driving on that road you have to be careful of, its other peoples
Passed the place on Sunday. Field opposite has a sign saying, ‘parking £2’. Don’t know whether that’s JC or the landowner earning a few bob. 🤷♂️ Don’t care anyway, as I’ll never be visiting.
Geoff and Lee's pub would have to be called Piston Broke! - - - Airline flying - you have to be going somewhere warmer than where you start from - that could be tricky, because you can't go back home, and you can only go somewhere warmer so many times, before there is nowhere hotter - other than inside a steelworks!
climbed out of autumn to a town called, Yusuf Kəndi, which was at least three feet deep in snow, then dropped down the other side of the mountain into near 40c degree desert in one section of a road trip. same as visiting mt bulla in Victoria , weird .
Crap tyres will be a moment of regret in the most regrettable moment. We’re not talking about putting Michelin Pilot Sports on or spaffing £150 each, a Kumho Ecsta is £70 plus fitting so £15 difference give or take. I drive past this pub every day I go to work, no idea it was there.
He’s trying to be like his hero Jeremy Clarkson who uses the incorrect syncategorematic before activities as a cute gimmick. Geoff wants to be like Jeremy so badly it’s A embarrassment. 😅
your biggest mistake Selling the Gold 850R . ive got Landsail on the E38 235 and 255 Very fine, the next up were Falcon ziex but the tyre place said nothing in it just price .Madona and guy ritchie lived in stow on the wold ive been .

You two look a little sozzled 👀🧐😎😜
Peace 🏴

Check you out using a knife and fork 😂😂😂 you mungo

The Fish & Chip Master and the Volvo King eat at Jeremy Clarkson's place. This was absolutely brilliant. What a great day out.
What makes Lee Davy a food expert? He always eats junk food.
That looks like a decent motor! I'm a huge fan of cloth seats with heating too. Waaaaayyyyyy better than leather or fake leather.
Also be clear. Unlike German, they don't rot.
its a real pleasure listening to you 2 just keep doing what your doing

Yep the 850's are great cars.
I think that the D5 Volvos that came after the 850's were also great cars.
I was waiting to see the Farmer's dog! 😃
Best Volvo ever . Strong cars and one of the best ever .
If you like the style of them they are unique in their own right .
Great Video Geoff , The Hardknock pass would be great, I have done it WOW it's steepppp
Hard Knott pass is a "Did it and survived" type road 33% on the straights and hairpins even steeper...
Driven it quite a few times over the years and even cycled up, when I was young and fit...!! 😂
That Volvo 850 is a beaut and a keeper...which could mean 6 months for Geoff. Seriously though, a very cool car. Great video, keep them coming.
Be far better if it was a diesel though
Someone suggested the ‘Cap & Glasses’ as the name for Geoff & the MacMaster’s Pub. I agree with that!
Lee and Geoffs Pub could be grumpy and happy😊😂
Thankyou 😊

Two VW factories closing in Germany. The first closures in 80 years?

Norway is falling out of kove with the EV according to the latest news
We went there on the Saturday, even my wife was impressed.
An great day out!
Loved my 850. same as yours 2.5, petrol, manual. Great car....
Thanks Geoff. Enjoyed it all. 😘
I had a 2001 Volvo S80, which I purchased just before lockdown. It had 42k miles on the clock.
If you and Lee open a pub make sure that girl from the coffee shop is behind the bar haha
Enjoyed the video Geoff, and re no cars.. New venture for Clarkson based off his farm, makes sense nothing to do with his past life. Just brilliant.
Back pack n hoodie😊
You 2 are a good team 👍
Great video!
You two definitely need to do your own pub with fish n chips and curries. 💯
Love to see a recreation if The Trip, great idea.
I took a punt on a 2005 d5 euro3 manual 5speed v70 in February, it had very clean mot and service history, 2 previous owners, scuffs all round the bumpers but a fully functional car with 11 months mot, £1000, it did have 199k miles now on 208k without any issues👌
About to do timing belt, tensioner and pulley, aux belt, tensioner pulley, fuel sender, just put new front springs, wishbones, strut top mount and bearing and a ball joint on her, none of it urgent, just addressed things as i found them needing tlc
I absolutely love this car, the germans can keep theirs😅 okay maybe I'm partial to a 90s 300td estate but😉
I'm only sad that i don't have more cash and space to save a couple more...I'd love an s80..there's one for sale near me, 70k miles, 8 seat stretched limousine 😂👌
Is this the first time Lee has got anywhere before you.
Yes but only because he set off 24 hrs in advance. 😂
Always good to see the lads together.
Think you should both visit Simonstone hall in Hawes, Yorkshire. It's where the infamous fracas happened where Clarkson hit the producer. There's also the buttertubs pass which is a fantastic scenic route and you could visit the tan hill pub, the highest (in altitude, not weed) pub in the uk.

My first proper car was a Lancia Monte Carlo, it was a great car - fast.

Any road trip would be fun. A road trip to Germany and the toll road that is a race track beginning with N would be a good one.
Great chat guys used to live & work in that area, Hook Norton brewery & Wychwood were the best brewers at that time.
Clarkson is a top man supporting British farming.👍 Well done opening a pub these days! Would I travel, for me, 1 hour plus, to join a sycophantic queue? No! Maybe if I happen to be passing and no queue and at lunch time?
I could listen to you two for hours, it was a great video. Thanks guys. Now I want fish and chips lol
Mac loves US trips so Aspen Colorado.
How about follow the colour change in the leaves in New England?

The boot inn for a meal. Beautiful. Sticky toffee pudding is the best IN THE WORLD
As long as the wheel things work, all good!
Had one of those. Stereo was awesome!!! A bit shit on fuel though. Peace!!
Give me first dibs on that 850 when your done with it please Geoff! 🙏
If you came from Worcestershire did you take the B4077? probably my favorite road to take to Cotswolds.
If you’re going to James Mays pub, you might like to call into Guy Ritchie’s airfield too. They’re not too far apart.
I'd like to see the Tie Kan go up Jawbones Hill in Dartmouth! That could be hysterical!
Maybe the Farmer's Dog has got to find it's mission? It's a bit like a Collie without a flock of sheep - it will need a charismatic host/ess , roaring fires in the winter, an old dog greeting the patrons - a unique identity...

I remember Hildenborough Volvo. It’s now an old people’s home..
Is it?! What a shame!
Geoff&Lee do Route62. Exploring the pleasures of driving up and down the M62.
Just gone from an old v70 to a v90 the technology is abit overwhelming 😂😂
Definitely do The Trip tour. One location at a time if you can't make it in full..👍
The possibility of adding Glamping would be awesome idea, to The Farmers Dog's business ventures.
Must be a great pub
I’ve done ski-ing. You don’t get cold!
Ha ha he is racking it in Clarksons Farm very clever marketing from Clarkson not one to miss an opertunity lol
That is a big tent the backpack must be big🤔
I like the look of steel wheels!
Nice on Geoff...ps.....Back British Farming website....top clothing : )
if you want test drive a 5 pot 2.0 td V50 6 speed manual let me know love your vids love my volvo did a lot of back lane driving today love it so much
