Baby Forces Sale

On this week's episode, we argue about the merits of a Vauxhall VX220 which has been in an accident, ponder the point of what is widely considered one of the worst cars of all time, and find out about the small part the girl from A-Ha's 'Take On Me' video played in British automotive history.

This week, the discovery of a 21-year-old Top Gear Magazine supplement leads us down the rabbit hole of the Volkswagen Polo Harlequin, where we find other VWs which have been been modified with a similar design.

This leaves us with two questions: 1) Why? And 2) no seriously, why?

This week, we take a trip back in time to 1984 and Central Television's coverage of that year's British International Motorshow at the NEC, and somehow spend nearly 40 minutes talking about a 32-minute video we found on YouTube.

Believe us when we say there is A LOT to unpack here.

This week, a Honda Prelude with some funky hydraulics and a Toyota Celica with an unusual bonnet modification. Both of which have been completely and utterly ruined.

We promise these are the last Japanese cars for a while.

On this week's episode, we look at a Toyota MR2 and a Mazda MX5 which have been modified to look like a Ferrari F355 and a 250 GTO, for some unfathomable reason.

Along the way, we find out why Ryan sold his MKII MR2, learn how F355s kept catching fire, and wonder why you'd swap any of these for a Jeep Wrangler.

It's an actual case of baby forces sale on this week's episode with a Daihatsu Copen plus a rare example of what was once the cheapest car on sale in Britain, the Perodua Nippa AKA the Perodua Kancil.

We also get to experience the greatest car advert ever made and speculate about how a small-time Burton Latimer salesman managed to become the official dealer for a Malaysian automotive titan.

It's back to normal on Baby Forces Sale this week, so obviously we've got a Vauxhall Omega hearse fitted with a jet engine and a replica of one of the maddest Group B rally cars to ever see the light of day, the Metro 6R4, to run the rule over.

On this week's podcast, we take a look at an episode of the 1994 BBC TV documentary series 'From A to B' which examines the strange rituals and disturbing subculture of sales reps and their company cars.

Along the way, we learn how to negotiate around company car policy with your fleet manager, discover how many Shell points it takes to get a free colour television, and ponder what a No. 70 on the Little Chef menu might have been.
