In this episode of The Radiator Arms, Ant and Will dive into the age-old debate: are you really a car enthusiast if you don’t fix your own car? From DIY brake jobs on the side of the road to relying on trusted garages, we explore what it means to be “a real car person” in today’s world of finance plans, warranties, and increasingly complex cars.
• Why some enthusiasts swear by DIY while others go pro
• The role of finance, warranties, and modern tech in killing car DIY
• Trust, safety, and the risks of letting someone else work on your pride and joy
• Is “built not bought” really the ultimate test of being a car person?
• Our own stories of mistakes, bonding moments, and learning through car projects
Do you love working on your own car, or do you leave it to the pros? Let us know your best (or worst) DIY car stories in the comments.
