Dan and Andrew also discuss Lando Norris's racing efforts in 2024 and talk to McLaren Automotive materials engineer Ella Podmore.

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel review two of the year's most exciting new cars... and they could hardly be more different.

But are they everything we hoped for? Dan and Andrew also reflect on another wonderful Sunday Scramble at Bicester Heritage and take a look at the used car marketplace.
