This week on the DriveTribe podcast Tim and Rachael are joined by Mike Fernie off of the DriveTribe YouTube channel.

Together we chat about the news of the week: the new budget Porsche Taycan, the new giant car-nglomerate Stellantis, the Renault 5 and Toyota's new hypercar… which may be going to race in a series that no longer has the sparkle we were once promised.

This week's DriveTribe podcast is brought to you by the heat-addled brains of Rachael and Tim. 

We discuss the slightly underwhelming new Audi S3, the upcoming 800hp Mercedes-AMG S73, the Bentley Bentayga Speed, and Tim reviews the Aston Martin DBX and Land Rover Defender. Rachael makes the case that SUVs aren't evil and that people on the internet need to chill out (again).

God, the future's bleak, isn't it? Luckily for you, Tim and Rachael are here to cheer you up with news that soon, cars physically won't let you break the speed limits! Yay! Oh. That's not actually good news.

Oh well, we also bring you news of a V8 version of the new Land Rover Defender, the Hyundai i20N, a weird SEAT Tapas bar (in Austria) and Forza Motorsport 8.

Tim also reviews the Mercedes-AMG A45. It's a very fun car.

After a brief Coronavirus hiatus that gave us very little to talk about, the DriveTribe Podcast is back for its fourth season.

And we've actually put some effort in this time, with new (and deeply pornographic) music recorded by the one and only Jonathan Morris (aka CEO of DriveTribe), punchier news, reviews and gear-grinding unpopular opinion segments.

This week we take a look at the 1,400hp Mustang Mach-E, the upcoming V8-powered Jeep Wrangler, Rachael gives us the lowdown on her Honda E review and I'll talk about the Audi RS4, RS6 and why you should never call your car 'she'.

This week Tim and Rachael sink their teeth into the latest audio-visual offering from Ferrari - which sets a new low for manufacturer-backed films. We chat about the brand's remake of the classic Rendezvous, and try to find out exactly how Ferrari managed to be so desperately uncool.

Speaking of uncool, Tim's been driving the new Honda Jazz and argues that you should probably care about it. No, really. 

This week you join Tim as he gets behind the wheel of the new Porsche 911 Turbo S (the 992 generation. Thank god we have all these numbers to use). If that wasn't exciting enough, he then takes you on a bit of a tour of the Porsche Taycan Turbo S to see if it's worthy of the Turbo badge. He swears a bit. They're both quite good cars.

Rachael catches us up with the week's news and reminisces about why drifting front-wheel-drive cars on ice isn't as bad as it sounds.

While Lewis Hamilton would have plenty to say about the late, great Niki Lauda, we've found an even more qualified Hamilton to tell us about the Formula 1 icon. Maurice Hamilton is a motorsport journalist who's just written a new book about the man in the red hat and his incredible career. He joins Phill Tromans for a chat about Lauda's life, as well as the latest goings on in modern Formula 1.

This week Tim is joined by Phill and Russ from the DriveTribe Editorial team to chat about the falling prices of supercars, which now mean you can get a McLaren 720S for about the same money as a well-specced Ford Fiesta. Almost.

We also hear about the time Phill hit 205mph on a (closed) public road, and the rest of the guys reminisce about the good times of maxing a car on the Autobahn. In between there's some errant chat about throwing yourself down hills on mountain bikes, the problem with pooing in campervans and lots more highbrow chat.

The eagle-eyed DriveTribe Podcast team invite ex-Evo magazine writer Will Beaumont back to the show for an hour-long daydreamy walk through the used-car classifieds.

We go through various price points, picking out our £5k, £12k, £40k and £100k used car buys. We have no concept of money, clearly, so don't actually buy anything purely on our advice. But this is all a good excuse for some drives down memory lane in some of the finest cars you can buy.

This week we're joined by David Chapman, who is a test driver for a big car company by day, and the owner of the finest manual-converted BMW M3 CSL by night. David explains what the job of a test driver is, the challenges of testing cars on the Nurburgring and how you can improve your own driving skills.

He's also owned some very interesting cars and talks us through his back catalogue – including the Mk1 Ford Focus RS, the Noble M12 and the humble Ford Puma. Enjoy!
