RS4 Plus One

We return from our summer recess to discuss our average levels of DIY vehicle maintenance. Also, the latest iteration of the Grand Tour, and we cast our minds back to the best cars of 2005-2015. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jon Roche, known on the socials as Auto Anorak joins us as this episodes guest. We talk car spotting, car shows and finally Jon scores our own cars.

Audi release the RS5 Avant, melting our brains with more model lineup shenanigans. Is all forgiven with its V6 TT / hybrid 640bhp powerplant? Driving under the influence. And 1995, a great year for hot hatchbacks. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode 45, we discuss excessive speeding, the new 911 Turbo S, and talk cars of the 1980s. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Following a summer hiatus, Sold As Seen returns. Andy was at an Evo Trackday at Bedford Autodrome, and the Pistonheads Annual Service, along with being impressed after a week with the Lotus Emeya.  Gary enlightens us with the superb LFA vs Carrera GT Top Gear Video and quickly pulls us back to earth on the topic of the cyber attack on JLR. We also talk China's domination of the EV market, and both the demise and return of physical controls. Ross brings the listener and forum member questions which we answer in as haphazard and unprepared manner as you would expect. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Burning questions for the Northern Irish motorist. Why did we only recently get motorway services recently? Will the A5 ever be finished? Will there be a bridge to Scotland? In this episode we are joined by the foremost authority on the Northern Irish road network, author and self confessed public highway enthusiast Wesley Johnston. Less about cars in this show, and more about the roads we use them on. You may know Wesley from is amazing NI Roads website, http://www.wesleyjohnston.com/roads, our independent voice on where and why roads are built, or as in the case of the A5, continual hiatus. Wesley takes us through what went before, from the grand plans from the 60s that never came to fruition, to the new Narrow Water Bridge that is well underway. Ross reminds us of the dirt bike over the top of Toome Bypass bridge Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Gaz and Andy are joined by RMS forum member Neil Magill. We'd like to say he's one of us, but maybe he's who we aspire to be. Anyway, he's currently building an MK RX-5 VTEC - think locaterfield kit car with a Type-R heart, building it at home. And he recently rescued a classic Impreza turbo in a local barn find. Also in this episode, the Rashmen's take on the Port Car Scene stirs up memories of the heady Max Power cruise days. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Andy regales a recent Silverstone Track Day, driving the new AM Vantage and advising a mate on a £15k hot hatch. Ross is excited for the return of Dubshed and to see the new R5. Gary brings a triumvirate of woe - VED increases, manufacturers up to no good, and that the 208 GTi won't be combustion powered, but brings it all back at the last minute with great plans for a new Civic Type R. And although we all agree that we no nothing about F1, we all very much miss the late Eddie Jordan. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We can't believe that the Sold as Seen Podcast has hit middle age already, at Episode 40, and we mark this occasion discussing many things including how wonderful the current Aston Martin lineup is, complete with eyewatering prices to match.  Andy was at a Lotus event on John DeLorean, and we answer your questions from the forum. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Andy back to back tests the BMW i4 vs the Tesla Model 3 Performance, and the Ioniq 5N on track. Gary tells us the whole car market has gone to hell. And we discuss Jaguar's attempted resurgence. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
