Matt tells us about his weird experience on morning radio; we have an update on the reality of affordable Ferrari manual-swaps; and we answer questions about:

The fizziest car for under $80k

Why the Mk7 VW was better than the Mk8

A giant pile of lithium has been found

When turning TCS off actually helps

How Tesla and Porsche are not the same

Car-related cat names

And more!
