@Boropolis Who needs GDPR, eh?

[Overbore @overborepod]

That's OK, so are we...

[Alex Goy @A1GOY]

Also, per image, I’m a bit behind on @overborepod…

[Overbore @overborepod]

@justchristwo I really love these. Haven’t the need for 4WD so can’t really justify one but if I could, I would! - Scrof

[Overbore @overborepod]

This week’s episode comes to you from this rather lovely Volvo V60.

Kitch judged it ‘not bad’ - praise indeed - and said it was the first new car Scrof’s brought in that he could see himself owning.

(Scrof quite likes it too.)

But was Volvo right to reincarnate its estates?

What’s the best-sounding engine?

Kitch reckons a soaring V10, or a thrummy five-pot. Scrof’s a sucker for an old-school V8.

What do you think? (Poll below!)

If you’re wondering where this week’s Overbore is, well, it’s coming.

Just not today. Sorry.

What with a family funeral this week, we’ve had to push things back a little, but we’re hoping to get the latest ep out to you tomorrow or on Monday.

Hang tight - it’s coming!

[Overbore @overborepod]

Which one?

[Overbore @overborepod]

Continuing the 90s theme of our latest episode…

The year is 1996. Your fleet manager has given you the choice of these four beauties for your next company car.

Which one are you choosing? (Poll below!)

Our latest podcast studio. What do you reckon?

Find out what it is - and whether it’s any good - on this week’s episode.

[Overbore @overborepod]

🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨

We’re back! And this week we’re in a Chinese car, trying to work out whether it’s any good.

Also: all the cars we’ve bought, sold and test-driven during our two-week break. Wheeler Dealers, eat your heart out.

WE’RE BACK!

After our brief hiatus we’ve moved to publishing our new episodes on Friday mornings, because it felt right.

(It has absolutely nothing to do with the fact we couldn’t get our act together in time to record for Thursday…)

OB9 drops at 10am. See you then!

[Overbore @overborepod]

Please join me in sending all the love of the automotive community to Rich and his family at this difficult time. Obviously there will be no episode of Overbore this week, but we hope to be back to it next week. Thank you.

[Overbore @overborepod]

Hi folks, it’s Scrof with some sad news. I’m sorry to report that Tony McLean, Kitch’s father in law and friend of the pod, passed away earlier this week. 🧵

[Overbore @overborepod]

Tony’s passing as a result of cancer is a reminder to us all to get ourselves checked out if something doesn’t seem right. Don’t delay. And don’t be afraid of troubling the doctor about nothing. After all, it might not be. (That means you, too, blokes.)
