    Mark Collins, Pressure, Performance & Decision Making — What Really Separates People When It Counts

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Premier Talk, we sit down with performance coach and mentor Mark Collins to explore what really happens to people — in business and in sport — when the pressure is on. Mark brings a unique perspective shaped by 25 years coaching amateur boxing, working with professional footballers, and navigating the highs and lows of business life. The conversation covers how pressure develops in the mind, why decision making is the real leveller, and why the W stands for Win but the L never stands for Loss. We also get into why calm is a skill not a personality trait, what Usain Bolt can teach us about performing on the biggest stage, and Mark's Sunday morning Active Shift walks on the Sandbanks seafront — and why they're growing. Whether you're an athlete, a business owner, or just someone trying to keep their head straight under pressure — there's something in this one for you.

To wrap things up, we look ahead to what’s coming next, including cars coming up for sale, new models launching, and our upcoming 2026 picks.

    Transfer‑Window Torque: Goodwood Revelations & Player Car Rush

    Send us Fan Mail Last time we traced 20 years of what footballers buy - this week we get into when and why. With the summer transfer window in full swing, Rich, Marc, Cliff & Mack explain the frantic two‑week July rush, the lull that follows pre‑season tours, and the “Lambo‑on‑standby” moments that happen the minute a new deal is inked. Fresh from Goodwood Festival of Speed, the team break down the cars that really matter to Premier Sports clients: Alpine’s retro‑electric R5, Land Rover’s 626 bhp Defender OCTA, Urban’s wide‑track Cullinan, and the jaw‑dropping colours now available straight from Solihull. They debate Mercedes’ new all‑electric CLA, a £107k BMW M2 CS, Porsche’s fully‑electric Cayenne mule, and why Ferrari’s upcoming “F80” hypercar might leave purists craving more noise. Add in a baby‑blue Cullinan build for a Liverpool star, Chinese EV interiors that are better than they look, soaring list prices, and a showroom restock that reads like a Premier League car park, and you’ve got a packed, car‑heavy episode.

    20 Years On: How Premier Sports Solutions Became Footballers’ Go‑To Car Dealership

    Send us Fan Mail Two decades in the making. In the debut episode of Premier Torque, Founder Rich Clark sits down with the team to unpack the unlikely journey from a university grad working retail, to running Chinese TV fan trips that introduced him to elite players, to brokering a Bentley for Jamie Redknapp—and ultimately launching Premier Sports Solutions in 2005. From early runs on Bentley Continental GTs and Range Rover Sports to today’s Urban‑kitted G‑Wagons, Cullinans and hybrid super‑SUVs, the team charts 20 years of what footballers actually buy, how trends ripple through dressing rooms, and why trust, speed and discretion keep players coming back. They also lift the lid on list price vs market reality, UK EV charging frustrations, McLaren’s next chapter under new leadership, and the regulatory whiplash slowing fresh car launches. Stick around to the end for how to send in your questions (cars, contracts, football life) and to hear Rich tease future guest player appearances. This podcast is sponsored by Sandbanks Clothing.
