Cheapskate Classics
2026/04/24
After Max tried to spike his car with cheap fuel, the chat this time turns to economy classics. Which car is the best buy to sip fuel and save cash? Also Matt tries to crush the 1980s icon that is the Scir-coco, the Score-oco, the Sir-coc, the Golf based coupe that was named after a burp. Or was it just wind? Plus your comments and news of an exciting new episode on the Corniche. The car, not the place. Hit play and give your ears 50 mins of classic car pleasure.  Send us Fan Mail Follow us on Instagram: @thetyrekickersuk Facebook: The Tyre Kickers Finalist - Independent Podcast Awards 2024 & 2025

2026/04/10
We're back and asking - what’s the best colour for a classic car? Is it best to go bright - or be more mature and muted? Plus - all the switchgear and no idea. Some classics have terrible switches, some have cool ones. We’ll name the worst and celebrate the ones that click. And we hear your thoughts on storage, Aussie motors and more Guilty Pleasures. Plus Max has got the hots for a £10k rusty Rolls. Matt's egging him on to buy it. Press play and hear it all unfold.

Size Isn't Everything
2026/03/27
Would getting a smaller classic save you money - or would you end up looking like the local village weirdo? Why do we go to classic car shows for parts and then buy random stuff? And what's the correct response to a fellow classic car driver who doesn't wave back? All that plus the pick of the auctions in the UK and a snoop through the classifieds in Australia. And we hear from you - as you confess your classic car guilty pleasures. It's all in the latest 40 minutes of classic car chat, opinions and disagreements. Hit play and come along for the ride.  Send us Fan Mail Follow us on Instagram: @thetyrekickersuk Facebook: The Tyre Kickers Finalist - Independent Podcast Awards 2024 & 2025
Guilty Pleasures
2026/03/13
What's your classic car guilty pleasure? What old cars do you really like but would never buy? Max and Matt fess up their fantasies and then burst them. Also - were pop up headlights cool or did they just make you look like a winker? Plus, Matt goes unsupervised to the Historics auction and gets distracted by stuff Max told him to avoid. And we come across the rudest numberplate we've seen in a long time. Who would leave that on their car?! All that and more is here in Episode 51. So hit play and lose yourself in our chaotic world of classic cars!  Send us Fan Mail Follow us on Instagram: @thetyrekickersuk Facebook: The Tyre Kickers Finalist - Independent Podcast Awards 2024 & 2025

I Need A Tow Truck!
2026/02/13
We're back! Max has had a breakdown - in something even more unreliable than his old Porsche 912. Also on the show - let's make brown great again! What's happened to all the brown cars? Plus - it's a hard knock life. We look at the sub-povvo spec of old car-based vans. No heated seats and CarPlay for the tradies of old. They were lucky to have wind-up windows and a steering wheel. All that, plus your thoughts, comments and corrections. Hit play and enjoy the chat!
