Monterey Car Week & Mogfest

<p>Steve Beres and Ike Goss discuss Jaguar Land Rover’s Q1 results, including a £109M profit before tax (2.8% EBITDA) that’s down 68.9% year-over-year and a free cash flow balance of -£998M, speculating it reflects heavy spending on new models and facilities and inviting an accountant to explain it. They cover the Freelander 8 presale delay due to Typhoon Dolphin, pricing around $50,000 with a $68,000 limited launch edition, and its unusual featured details. The hosts recap Monterey Car Week news: Sotheby’s sold a 2007 SV Ultra and a 1993 Range Rover Classic for about $967K, plus notes about export and California sales restrictions, and they mention the $248K Range Rover SV Pearl Lustre benefiting the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. They also touch on the Dakar Defender Octa edition, an Octa used as a land-speed-record push vehicle, attend Mogfest in Oregon, and share workshop updates including transporting vehicles, clutch work, and Ike acquiring a 1965 Series IIA 109 pickup with a rear PTO.</p><p><br /></p><p>00:00 Show Introductions</p><p>01:18 JLR Q1 Profits and Cash</p><p>02:23 Negative Cash Flow Explained</p><p>04:08 Freelander 8 Typhoon Delay</p><p>05:24 Launch Edition Oddities</p><p>08:02 Monterey Car Week Buzz</p><p>08:12 Auction Range Rovers Drama</p><p>10:24 SV Pearl Lustre Edition</p><p>12:22 Dakar Defender Octa Reveal</p><p>14:06 Color Scheme Hot Takes</p><p>16:06 Octa Tuning and Push Car</p><p>17:40 Land Rovers and Speed Records</p><p>18:47 Bluebird Support 109s</p><p>19:42 Mogfest Off Road Meetup</p><p>22:02 Unimog Reunion Story</p><p>23:29 Tiny Unimog Driving Impressions</p><p>25:05 Haflinger Love and Nesting</p><p>26:16 Shop Logistics and Repairs</p><p>27:55 New Series IIA Pickup Arrival</p><p>30:38 PTO Ice Cream and Blender Ideas</p><p>32:05 Wrap Up and Announcements</p><p>33:17 Credits and Support</p>
