Overbore episodes

  • OB2. Why old cars don't need MOTs (maybe) and a fat Lambo, in a Peugeot 106

    In the second episode of Overbore, Scrof and Kitch take to a Peugeot 106 affectionately known as 'Dumpit'.

    After a brief discourse on the subject of small Peugeots, Kitch gives a potted history of Noble, a British sports car manufacturer that was, for a time, well known, and discusses his attempts to get one of the firm's earliest cars to fit back together.

    Scrof, meanwhile, explains why he wasn't really feeling the Lamborghini he's been tooling around in (spoiler alert: it's because he's getting old and soft).

    Plus: the ethics of motoring journalism, and whether it’s time to rescind the MOT exemption for historic vehicles.

  • OB1. Fake turbos, starter classics, and Building Your Dreams in a Citroen BX 16v

    Scrof and Kitch kick off their podcast in an old Citroën, even though it's most definitely not a podcast about old Citroëns.


    Via a brief discussion about knobs and the vagaries of Ford Fiesta nomenclature, they eventually get to the point, which is to talk about starter classics (because they're just starting off - see what they did there?)


    They also discuss the new Renault 5 Turbo 3E, which hasn't got a turbo, and the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, which makes fake engine noises (but is actually good despite this).
