Episode 124 - Throwback to the Start!

This episode is a throwback to the very beginning - back in May 2008, I published Motoring Weekly Ep 1 - and here it is. The technology was different in those days so the sound quality isn't as good but it was 16 years ago!

Episode 120 - James Nicholls.

I had the pleasure of interviewing James Nicholls - the founder of the Sydney Harbour Concours d'Elegance.

We had a great conversation about how he created the Concours event, the work required and the fact that it is now a globally recognised event. There is also a sneak peek into what will be on show next year!

James is also the founder of Halcyon Auctions, selling some amazing vehicles and memorabilia.

Episode 117 discusses a new internal combustion engine design recently patented by Porsche.

It is a six-stroke motor that takes design cues from the four-stroke developed way back in the 1880s and the later Atkinson Cycle motor. It hasn't been built yet but could be a great evolution that keeps the ICE relevant.
