We are joined this week by Ian Robertson, an enthusiast of Peugeot 405s, and publisher of Classic Retro Modern car magazine, an independent title that celebrates many of the same cars we discuss in each of our shows.
Join us for a journey through Simca's, Talbots, Peugeot 405's, a history lesson on the loveable (but not strictly) Peugeot 309, and Ford Sierra.
His Dad would do up to 50,000 miles a year, so was changing cars every 3 months at times, in order to keep the resale value in them.
We explore Ford's ability to divide popular opinion with the Sierra, but also with the Focus and the KA later on.
Ian is a collector of dealer brochures and model launch literature, so naturally we chat about that.
All in all, another great episode, even if we do say so ourselves!
