It's shopping time! Come, lose a finger squeezing under the slowly ascending roller door with Nick and Sam as they charge into car marketplaces of the world. We get a little too intimate comparing the Carsales app to Tindr, but we aren't far off the mark. Swipe. Low ball. Bid. It's all pretty similar, right? We reminisce about the ones that got away, and the ones where we almost risked it all. And yes, this is mostly Marketplace and Gumtree, but you have to kiss a few frogs to get into a V12 Alpina with the pin stripes. No! Don't worry about sourcing 12 individual, 28-year-old BMW spark plugs! Check out the car phone! Buy! Sell!

And listen in. This episode gets emotional.

Most beautiful car ever made? One question, two answers. The first won't surprise you, the second will make you thump your steering wheel rage. To give themselves something to do in the lazy hiatus (which seems to be a bit of a theme this year), Nick and Sam pondered what the most beautiful car ever made was according to a) everyone, and b) no one but ourselves. What drab piece of automotive history would we defend as being a secret stunner?

Listen in to find out!

Okay. Right, um. So, yep, seatbelt, keys in the ignition - don't turn them yet! No, so. Okay, foot on brake. Middle one. Wait, left one, I guess. NOW turn the keys, okay, STOP turning them! Engine is on! Now, uhm, right. Put it in 'D', handbrake off, indicate, check mirrors, okay wait, adjust your mirrors. Bugger. Forgot about that one. Okay, still indicating, now release brake and move off slowl-SLOWly, now steer. STEER. HOW?? Hand over under hand ten and two unless you're moving the wheel in which case ...

Nick and Sam have been pondering the big questions: how the hell do you teach someone to use a steering wheel?

We also report on the return of the Great Car Names, but perhaps not the things that made them great. It's like a high school reunion where everyone's gotten a little more ... comfortable?

Enjoy!
