OB6. So you want to be a motoring journalist? And more of your questions answered
Scrof's flying solo this week, and from his podcast studio (well, his immobile hunk of old Citroen - you have to have one to be on Overbore) he's answering some reader questions.
For example, can we run press cars on the dyno? Do EV batteries really fit in saloon cars? And why does anyone buy a new car these days?
Scrof will also be talking about how to become a motoring journalist (and indeed, whether you should), and he'll tell you a little more about Audrey, his 1970 Citroen DS. See, he can call it that, because Kitch isn't about...
Overbore
Alex Robbins is a motoring writer who tests the latest new cars for a living. Richard Kitchen is an automotive engineer who spends most of his time bringing crumbling classics back to life.
Together, they spend a lot of time drinking tea and talking rubbish about cars. So they thought they may as well do it with a microphone in front of them.
On Overbore, Alex tries to convince Rich of the merits of the modern automobile - while Rich tries to help Alex learn more about running his classic. And along the way, they hope to help lovers of cars of all ages and types to broaden their horizons.
