This week we get into whether EVs are actually the future, how much horsepower is too much for a road car and somehow end up talking our way through old Hondas and the cars we wish we could still buy for sensible money. Badger also tells the story of getting a bus across the country to buy a Golf when he was far too young to be doing it, only for the car to break down on the way home and the Gardaí to end up getting involved. We also talk about how far is too far to travel for a car, the madness of 1,000hp road cars and finish up with an idea that could see us finally starting a proper Redline Republic project car and YouTube series.
