Episode 3: The Joy of Six (and a bit of MINI on the side)

Clangers

Show Notes

In the episode we're marketing to global markets as episode 3, Tom, Craig and Mike discuss the merits and (many) failings of the Fiesta Mk6 (or Mk5 depending on location) and the rebooted MINI R50 - often referred to as the BMW Mini (although Craig takes issue with that.) We also discover what new crate Craig has acquired this week.
