In some way, modern cars have lost a bit of the attractive elements that classic cars have. Clinton has been a British car enthusiast from his childhood, and will go as far as to say that he is a specialist in classic car oil leaks. He has built and run a flourish business grounded on mutual love for classic cars, with preference for the British of course. We speak about what makes them so desirable, and how the classic car market will survive in future years. Here is what we spoke about: 00:00 Introduction to Clinton 08:33 How cars have lost their flavour 14:21 Laude Classic Cars 23:59 The Best part of his job 26:23 Jaguar XJS Thundercat 32:56 Classic car market: SA vs oversees 36:07 Does South Africa lack the skills to work on classic cars 40:32 Will classic cars stay relevant in future years 45:01 Clinton's favourite cars over the years 49:26 Modern supercars are too quick 52:57 Any car, Any road

I first have to apologise for the extreme bias towards Porsche in this episode, but since I am shooting with Lourens Bester, the Porsche club Cape Town President, I feel it is fitting. We have a conversation regarding his career, but the majority of the podcast is about the inner workings of an official car club, the type of petrol heads within them, and the various legendary Porsche's of the past years. Here is what we spoke about: 00:00 Introduction 01:00 Lourens' history with cars 10:39 Porsche club - then and now 23:17 How the Cayenne and Macan saved Porsche 29:06 Popular vs non-popular Porsches 50:30 Lourens' dream 3 car garage For any rants or enquiries: overrunbrand@gmail.com We would love to engage with you on our socials!

Ian Mclaren has been a car journalist for longer than I've been alive. What a honour to have the opportunity to pick his brain about today's cars!

The second iteration of a very fun and light-hearted series. In this conversation with a car idiot, we have Ruan Lubbe… a non-car guy.

It seems like there is a trend with Martin's friends. The common denominator: They all like Porsches.

Your first car is one of the most important decisions and memorable moments in your life. It's your ticket to freedom; to independence. But what did that decision look like in the 1980's? In this episode, I explore the best of the bunch in the 1980's – the choices that kept parents, students and young adults up at night.
