The Clutch Basket Cars, Bikes & Trucks Podcast

This episode is all about those wonderful plastic pigs that roam the earth.

Some are intended to be super cheap, others are pursuing performance with extreme power to weight ratios. This weeks episode covers things as diverse as Corvette's and Reliant Robin's. We have Viper's and and Ferrari's and a whole array of stuff in between.

Fibreglass is weird and wonderful stuff and deserves this loving tribute.

This episode is all about some of the most extreme motorcycle designs of all time!

Fancy a motorcycle with a small block Chevy V8? Well, if thats not big enough for you, there is a big block available in the Boss Hoss. Perhaps a rotary engine motorcycle is for you with all the extreme complications that come with that as well. Maybe a motorcycle with a radial engine on the front wheel is more your speed.

All this and much more is covered in this episode so it's not one to be missed.

This is a rather simple premise. We are covering the cars that are driven by bad guys in film and TV. Typically, Matt has gone for The Sweeney route and I have gone for US film and TV bad guy cars. This is packed with the usual Jags, Mercedes and Chryslers that were associated with bad guys back in the day.

We also cover the cars that some real life bad guys choose and why.

We pick up where we left off in episode 1 and this episode covers the most famous era in TVR's long and interesting history. This is a time period when many of the most famous of TVR's came to be.

We pick up with the Tasmin and S series, but the story quickly turns to V8's and TVR's return to that classic formula of big V8 in a lightweight British sports car. 

We cover the second gen Griffith, the Chimera, Cebera, Tuscan, Tamora and Sagaris. The episode is rounded off with some good news aout the future of the company as well.

TVR is the topic of a two part episode, similar to our Lotus 2 parter last season.

Part one takes us from the companies origins under Trevor Wilkinson, through to the Martin Lilley era when many of the famous TVR's came to be.

There is loads to cover in this episode including the Grantura and original Griffith, as well as Tuscan's, Vixens and many V*'s crammed into incredibly small British sports cars.

This is all about luxurious barges and what it means in a persons life when they are choosing to purchase and drive such things! It's time for us to be more open minded about automatic land yacht's, so we have delved into the land of plush leather and wood interiors.

We had a lot of fun last season with our £2k Purchases episode that we decided to go again but be more generous to ourselves with the budget.

As always, we made life difficult for ourselves by restricting ourselves to some rather unusual categories. These are;

1. A pre 1960's design
2. A car to drive around Europe in
3. A car for London

To make life more difficult still, we had to satisfy these categories with ones of the following.

A. A 5 door car
B. A car with more than 4 cylinders
C. A convertible

We came up with some tremendous choices so have a listen to see what we came up with.

We kick the conversation off with some serious wild car spotting, including one of the most outrageous and wonderful cars of all time, the Cord 810. Honda Cubs, V8's and TVR all get some love and well as hot hatches before I finally make Matt try to be grateful for at least some features of modern cars!
