EP54: Major fleet update, the BMW Z8 & shocking past car prices
We (and by that we mean Ciaran) have been very busy doing some big jobs on the 50to70 fleet, so this week we're running through all of the major updates. The good news is that more of our weird and wonderful cars will be back on the road sooner than later now.
Is the Z8 the most underrated modern BMW still? We discuss and also fall into the trap of looking back at used car prices from 25 years ago. Trigger warning: you will not believe what some of these cars used to cost.
