Max wants to charge £50 to enter his fantasy car museum. Matt thinks it sounds terrible. A random collection of wedgy classics, chips and Max's holiday snaps. Matt reckons his prima collection of Italian headturners (half the entry price at £25) will be miles better. Cue - a row about who's right and who's wrong. Also, this episode, hear more about the big Stag saga and why Matt's now a bit nervous about driving it. And the boys get accused of being materialistic about owning classics, rather than loving them. The cheek of it! Hear about this and much more in this latest episode. Hit play and lose yourself in 40 mins of great classic car chat.

Don't listen to this episode if you have a modern stereo in your classic car! There is a small risk of being offended as Max and Matt finally agree on something...modern radios are rubbish. Plus Max admits he might be slightly less correct about four cylinder Mercs, Matt goes sniffing around some Alfas and they have a major difference of opinion on the Rover SD1. Warning: This latest edition of the Tyrekickers may offend if you've spent £14 on your in car entertainment.
