The Gassing Station

It’s been two years in the making, but we’re the first in the UK to get our hands on one of only 200 examples built worldwide. Are pair of special diff settings and a carbon wing enough to justifying spending £80k for one on the used market? 

Also in this episode of The Gassing Station, Sam drives the new Porsche Taycan e-shift, hot hatches, sports saloons and fast coupes go against each other in a £25k challenge, and the two dig through your unpopular car opinions.

BMW's new M Concept Neue Klasse isn't just a glimpse into the next M3 - it's practically the finished article.

In this episode, Cam and Sam break down everything they learned from the M Concept's world premiere at Le Mans, detailing the massive differences between the upcoming electric and combustion versions.

Then the two dive into a classic £1,500 cheap car challenge before wrapping things up with a troubling story on the frustrating decline of convertible sales and why there's no sign of a rescue mission anytime soon.

What happens when you're let loose inside Girardo & Co with an unlimited budget to build the ultimate two-car garage? 

As you may now, Girardo & Co is one of the most prestigious car sellers in existence, with a showroom packed full of unobtainium that only a handful of the world's wealthiest individuals can afford. Fortunately, they invited PistonHeads along for an evening of story telling, food munching and podcasting for our new and exclusive club: 98 Collective.

Here's how it all went down...

What if BMW put the E46 M3 Touring into production? Cam and Sam explore the ultimate automotive what-ifs, starting with Petroyle's incredible restomod before exploring the greatest concept cars that never made production. 

Then it's on to a £60,000 premium seven-seater challenge, pitting Sam’s plush Bentley Bentayga against Cam’s sensible diesel BMW X7. Finally, they hit the forums to look at the controversial car designs that actually aged surprisingly well.

The biggest car story of the year? Quite possibly. Cam and Sam take a closer look at the new Ferrari Luce, the company’s first-ever EV, and dissect everything from its controversial styling and radical interior to the reaction from the PH community.

Then it's onto a £30k sports car buying challenge, replacing a 981 Porsche Cayman and Honda S2000 with a single car, before debating the car features we simply couldn’t live without. Air conditioning is only the beginning...
