Join the team as they go back in time to 1999 and discuss which of the E39 5 Series would be their company car. Tune in also for what they’d change their name to if they were a young racing driver, a Tamiya themed 2CG and much more! We hope you enjoy.
(00:00) Intro
(00:55) It is 1999. You have a company car allowance that allows you any E39 5 series (the only car you’d choose). Even the mighty M5. But which one do you go for as a 30k p/a daily
(11:47) What Is the best piece of OEM car maker merchandise that you’ve seen?
(25:24) Jaguar’s new car
(36:53) What car’s design is annoyingly close to brilliance but has a terrible flaw you struggle to overcome?
(45:21) You’re a young racing driver about to change your name by deed-pole. What do you call yourself?
(54:19) 2CG
(1:06:07) Music
