Ben and Jon Do Cars Ben Wildeboer, Jonathan Hugill

This week as the weather has been so nice we delve into the sunny world of Convertibles - why they're great, why they're not, and why Ben has fallen for a horrible Fiat 500 Convertible. We also discuss the MG ZS180 and why we love them as part of this week's rate or slate and then it devolves into another trip down Rant Alley to discuss the worst kind of convertbiles and convertible owners.

This week we have our first ever guest on the podcast! Long term friend and supporter of the channel Ross from Slip & Grip Automotive came down to chat about his life with cars, organising trackdays, doing stupid things as teenagers, working at the Nurburgring and much much more. This is a long one but it was awesome fun and definitely not the last time Ross will be on the show. Thanks for joining us dude.

This week an unplanned podcast sees up meandering around the Monaco Grand Prix, the new Fast and Furious movie and a brief update on Ben's Lexus GS430 drift project before settling into a rather philosophical conversation pondering why Aston Martins have such an affect on you when driving them. We've been lucky enough to have access to a 2005 V8 Vantage Manual for the last week or so and we're both just head over heels in love with it even though on paper it doesn't seem like anything special. Why is that?

This week we share a couple of new electric hot hatches that have caught our eye, maybe Electric Cars are finally offering FUN over just blistering acceleration? Also Ben's been to Ireland to watch round one of this year's Driftmasters European Championship, and we finish off with a nice trip down Rant Alley to discuss how discourteous drivers are nowadays and people who hog the middle lane.

This week is a proper meandering pick 'n' mix of subjects, from an honest Audi A4 cab in for Rate or Slate, through some of our personal history including some dodgy antics in field cars as teenagers and then finishing up with an accidental trip down Rant Alley talking about VW killing off the Golf and people bragging about their car's theoretical horsepower.
