Recorded live at the Royal Automobile Club, this week Autocar’s Steve Cropley and Matt Prior meet Ian Callum, director of design, and David Fairbairn, managing director, from Callum Designs.
The pair’s working relationship – and friendship – stretches back to their time at Jaguar together. On leaving JLR, they established Callum Designs as an industrial design studio, which has released all-new models like the Callum Skye, restores and modifies classics like the Mini and Aston Martin Vanquish, made a one-off roadgoing Jaguar C-X75, and – shhh – does top secret work for clients.
Callum and Fairbairn spill the beans on all things Callum plus their previous lives in this lively debate recorded during London Motor Week.
Cropley and Prior are back with their regular My Week In Cars podcast every Wednesday.

Step inside Renault’s bold reinvention with this episode of the Autocar Meets podcast. Deputy editor Felix Page rides through London with Renault’s Chief Marketing Officer, Arnaud Belloni, to uncover how the brand is reshaping its identity for a new era.
From the launch of Renault’s striking new concept stores – including a new Battersea site – to the revival of legends like the 4, 5, and Twingo, Belloni explains why Renault is leaning into storytelling, design, and emotion to connect with customers. He reveals how the brand is returning to city centres with smaller, lifestyle-focused showrooms, merging cars with cafés, lounges, and curated merchandise to build a brand 'touchpoint' that serves as far more than mere a sales channel.
Belloni also reflects on Renault’s evolution since the ‘80s when it was a 'nobody brand', the unique bond the brand has with UK buyers, and why authenticity drives respect in today’s market. And in a fascinating discussion on merchandise, he shares why Renault is following the lead of global lifestyle brands, turning icons like the Renault 5 into not just cars, but experiences you can wear, play, and live with - including £4000 table football sets.
