EP.11 - Myth or Fact: Phones Really Can Explode Petrol Stations?

We’re kicking off a brand-new segment this week: Myth or Fact, where Tom puts Joe on the spot with some of the UK’s most debated car myths. Can you get points for driving too slowly? Is it illegal to flash your headlights? What about barefoot driving? Turns out, a lot of what we think we know is total rubbish…

We also head to the countryside for this week’s Dream Car Garage challenge. Picture this: you’ve inherited a cozy British holiday home. What two cars are you keeping there - one for utility, one for fun? We each build our perfect weekend duo on a budget, with bonus points for British charm.

Plus:
- All the latest car news
- British F1 weekend preview
- What to expect at Goodwood Festival of Speed 2025
- And a teaser for next week’s full Goodwood breakdown!

In this episode, we tackle the cars that hurt our eyes the most.

From strange design choices to full-blown styling catastrophes, we each bring a list of the ugliest cars ever made - and things get surprisingly heated.


Some are obvious. Some are controversial. One or two might get us cancelled. But it’s all in good fun.

Talking with Longbow Motors’ CEO & CSO: The EV Sports Car Promising a Better Drive Than ICE!

In this special episode, we sit down with Daniel Davey (CEO) and Mark Tapscott (CSO) of Longbow Motors - the team behind a bold new electric sports car that aims to out-drive traditional petrol-powered performance.


We dive into the technical challenges of creating a high-performance EV-from lightweight construction and battery integration to handling dynamics - and gain insight into the thoughtful engineering decisions that shape the future of sports cars.


They encouraged us to go “weapons free,” so we didn’t hold back in asking the tough questions, leading to a candid and educational conversation that broadened our understanding of what it takes to bring innovative automotive technology to life.


We’re especially grateful for their openness in answering our questions and helping us grasp the complexities involved, including a nod to our earlier, more naive curiosity and opinion on powertrains!

EP. 8 - Tier List Special: Forza Horizon, BMW M3 Generations & Every 2025 F1 Track

After a short break (thanks to Tom’s home renovation chaos), we’re back—and diving straight into our first-ever Tier List Special.

But first, some car news and updates: Tom takes his first ride in an Aston Martin DBS, we react to the new Apple CarPlay Ultra coming to Astons, and reflect on the underrated brilliance of BMWs from the mid-2000s to mid-2010s. Plus, a shared frustration over the state of the used car market—clean, enthusiast-spec cars are getting harder to find.


Then it’s tier time. Joe introduces the concept, and we jump into ranking:

  • Every Forza Horizon game
  • All generations of the BMW M3
  • Every F1 circuit on the 2025 calendar, from S-Tier legends to full-blown Ditch Tier disasters


Get involved - tell us your own rankings, and let us know if you agree with ours.

EP. 6 - North Wales Road Trip, The Ugly Truth About New Cars & Can Driving in the UK Still Be Fun?

This weeks episode… No plan, no notes—just a properly winged catch-up after a spirited morning blast through North Wales. 


We chat about our drive with a seriously special 911 ST, plus Tom’s Cayman S and Joe’s Z4, and ask the big question: Can you actually still enjoy driving in the UK?

Speed cameras, potholes, insurance costs, endless traffic—it’s getting harder to justify the love. But is there still magic to be found behind the wheel on British roads?


We also go off on one about the state of car design (spoiler: we’re not fans of most new BMWs), the rise of Chinese car brands and their slick dealer networks, the tariffs America’s slapping on car imports, and what it’ll take for the European car industry to properly fight back.

Let us know if UK roads still do it for you—or if you’re ready to pack your bags for the Alps.

EP. 5 - BMW M2 First Drive, Investing in Cars & F1’s Biggest Paychecks

This week, Tom hit up a Cars & Coffee event at Classic Collective in Bicester, got behind the wheel of a BMW M2 for the first time, and debated whether to turn his car into a full-blown track weapon.

Then, we take on a high-stakes Dream Car Garage challenge: A wealthy family member is entrusting you with £80,000 to pick a future classic—one that’s set to appreciate over the next decade. No pressure, right?

Plus, we break down the jaw-dropping salaries of F1’s biggest stars, from Verstappen’s record-breaking earnings to the surprising pay gaps on the grid. And finally, Nissan’s new CEO wants to bring back the brand’s passion for cars—could this mean a Silvia revival?

EP. 4 - F1’s V10 Comeback, New McLaren’s & the £100K Supercar Challenge

In this episode, we’re breaking down some of the biggest automotive stories right now. McLaren has just unveiled the MCL38 Celebration Edition Artura and 750S—but what makes these special, and are they worth the hype? Meanwhile, Maserati has dropped the hardcore GT2 Stradale, and Mercedes is teasing a major tech launch that could hint at the future of the brand. Could we also see the return of a screaming V10 in F1? We dig into the rumours.


We also make our bold F1 predictions for the season ahead and discuss three ambitious but (just about) realistic car bucket list picks.


DREAM CAR GARAGE: You’ve just inherited £100,000 from a petrolhead relative—but there’s a catch. You must follow their strict instructions to the letter. You have to buy a supercar—no sensible choices, no compromises. The moment you get the keys, you’re leaving immediately on an epic road trip suited to the car. No delays, no excuses. Your budget must cover the car, insurance, and tax—and every single penny must be spent. No leftovers, no saving for later.

So, what are you buying, and where’s your first stop? Let us know in the comments!
