They also ponder a bit of picking up of cars from a distance in a single go. Also discussion on broken cars, previously owned cars and chasing down disappointment on the toilet...

Transcribe →3 Car Garage with David 'HoTWire' Murphy
Sep 17, 202000:39:52Tap to summarizeWell the interviewer has become the interviewee as we hand over the reins of Three Car Garage to Simon Coulson. This time, to ease things in gentle we get to delve the thoughts of David, the usual presenter for Retro Rides. With choices ranging from Japanese rarities, through to stylish grand tourers and a very practical family car we arrive at a three car garage that should let David enjoy all aspects of his car life in comfort and/or style. There is also a bunch of discussion about what wasn't picked, which feels like cheating...

Transcribe →Retro Rides chats to Chris Pollitt from Not 2 Grand and Car & Classic
Aug 12, 202001:02:00Tap to summarizeWe're very pleased to have grabbed an hour of Chris Pollitt from Car & Classic and his own Not 2 Grand blog to chat about cheaper older cars, misadventures, surprisingly good cars, Morgans, Limp Bizkit headlamp violence, never learning and, fixing a car with a Pepsi can on a campsite. Such is the life of our friend Chris. Hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we did recording it. We even managed to edit out the pre-record stuff at the start this time... *cough*
Transcribe →Retro Rides chats to Ian 'Hubnut' Seabrook
Aug 5, 202001:15:32Tap to summarizeToday we're talking to a man who celebrates the average, Mr. Hubnut himself, Ian Seabrook. A long time friend of Retro Rides our conversation meanders through how he got started doing Hubnut, cars that have surprised him in both good and bad ways, the decline of the British car industry, the misunderstood gem that is the Honda Prelude, as well as road trips, those average and not so average cars. Hopefully you'll enjoy the conversation as much as I did. His channel (if you don't know already) is @HubNut on Youtube. If you fancy some more old car chat drop by https://forum.retro-rides.org
