Episode 65: It's leaking petrol and the jump pack is on fire...
In this episode of A Pint of Petrol, the boys are back in Tim's garage fixing the Calibra Turbo... again. This time, it's sprung a fuel leak... but neither car find out where from! To add to their woes, the battery has gone flat and jump pack decides to combust. Whilst on Tim's beloved Turbo. The boys also bicker over the latest news, including a new law which means you can't stand and drink in London, and the our least favourite orange man, who seems determined to implode the world, could have ruined classic cars forever. All positive then.

Episode 64: The Fast, The Furious and The broken Discovery.
This week, Tim has gone to Ian's to fix - yep you guess it - another Land Rover. This one is Ian's mum's Disco and it's been in family since it was new. Many, many years have passed and now Ian is desperately trying to get it back on the road. In other news, Tim has been to the cinema to see one of his all time favourite films - the original Fast and the Furious - and he is going to (try to) convince Ian that is a great car film. Before it all went very, very silly, that is. Enjoy!

Episode 63: You're Too Fat and Too Short to be on YouTube.
This week, the boys are ranting about the sheer amount of entitlement that is in the modern world. You see, Tim published a review of the new Mini John Cooper Works and, as you can expect from him, it was balanced, well produced and looked at both the good and the bad. However, it seems this video has upset the internet with many people taking to the comments. One of which thought it was appropriate to post "You are too fat and too short to be on YouTube". Wow. Meanwhile, Ian has had a similar experience with some smart nobody telling him that his Range Rover - which was bought new by his grandfather - was not an original colour and that "it's a shame it's not original". Riiiiiight... Why can't people just be nice?

Episode 62: Beaulieu, The National Motor Museum and Fixing a Fuel Leak.
In this week's episode of A Pint of Petrol, the boys are in Tim's garage fixing another one of his Calibras. This time, it's "Charlie-Four" which is leaking fuel. Will it be a simple fix or a total nightmare? Meanwhile, the boys debug the wealth of mis-information about the National Motor Museum and Beaulieu - and how every Tom, Dick and Harry has been jumping on the story and spreading mis-information to for clickbait. Time to sort both out.

Episode 61: The Pressure of Racing at 15 with Oscar Stockley-King -- PLUS BTS Beaulieu Supercar Weekend Adventure
In this week’s episode of A Pint of Petrol, Tim is joined by 15-year-old racing driver Oscar Stockley-King at the Beaulieu Supercar Weekend. With the public gone home, the pair have the venue almost entirely to themselves - giving Tim and Oscar the chance to talk openly and honestly about what it’s really like to race at such a young age, and the pressure that comes with competing in your mid-teens. But first, Oscar has nabbed the keys to his dad’s Porsche 911 and is taking Tim on a private tour of the Beaulieu Supercar Weekend. With an incredible collection of supercars and hypercars on display, what will catch the eye of a 15-year-old racing driver? Well… you might be surprised. There’s one particular car that leaves both Oscar and Tim completely lost for words. Recorded in August 2026 at the Beaulieu Supercar Weekend. All driving was completed on private land.
