The boys are back and in the episode of A Pint of Petrol, Tim and Ian are talking about all of the amazing concepts and cars that came out of the Paris Motorshow. And, of course, that flying Tesla.
Both of them are in their respective garages whilst Storm Austen batters the UK.
They also discuss the new Corsa GSE, which Tim has been testing, and how he might need a Land Rover for the 2027 Show Season.
This week, all the news has been about the new Jaguar Type 01 and Ian has told Tim not to watch or read anything about it... until now.
So what do the boys make of the new Jaaaaag? Time to find out...
In this week's episode, Tim has got his hands on the brand, spanking new Vauxhall Astra Tourer, a car Ian has previously said he really likes the look of. So, will it live up to the hype or... not?
Well, Tim seems to think it's all the car you could ever need, Ian on the other hand is less convinced. Let the bickering begin!
Oh, and quick not... when the boys recorded this, they didn't have all of the information about the car and thought it was a top of the range "Ultimate" version... it wasn't, it was the base model "Griffin", which is £5,000 less than what they say it is in the episode.
Also, the broken bit did fix itself... straight after they stopped recording. Typical!
In this episode of A Pint of Petrol, the boys are back in Tim's garage fixing the Calibra Turbo... again. This time, it's sprung a fuel leak... but neither car find out where from!
To add to their woes, the battery has gone flat and jump pack decides to combust. Whilst on Tim's beloved Turbo.
The boys also bicker over the latest news, including a new law which means you can't stand and drink in London, and the our least favourite orange man, who seems determined to implode the world, could have ruined classic cars forever.
All positive then.
This week, Tim has gone to Ian's to fix - yep you guess it - another Land Rover. This one is Ian's mum's Disco and it's been in family since it was new. Many, many years have passed and now Ian is desperately trying to get it back on the road.
In other news, Tim has been to the cinema to see one of his all time favourite films - the original Fast and the Furious - and he is going to (try to) convince Ian that is a great car film. Before it all went very, very silly, that is.
Enjoy!
