As usual, we're taking short break over Christmas and the New Year but we're not going to leave you without a podcast to listen to! Episode 117 dips back into the archive and extracts the 'Alfas we've owned' sections from four of our early 'Meet the Board' episodes. Alfa Romeo Driver Editor Guy Swarbrick begins with Club Manager Nick Wright, then Motorsport Director Richard Murtha, Finance Director John Timms and, finally, Section Supremo Jonathan Griffin. Recorded during the pandemic between May 2020 and January 2021, as well as being a fascinating insight into the variety of cars the board has owned - they also act as a time capsule from a very different time, when podcasts were born!
