In this week's show, Ariff discusses the return of Formula One in March, and the launch of Gran Turismo 7 - the most anticipated racing video game in years, and the development of an AI called 'Sophy'. Next, Daniel has some good news for Citroen/DS owners and Motorcycle riders, and then go through the car launches, featuring the Honda Odyssey, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and two new Mercedes-Maybach ultra-luxury cars.

Finally, in Part 3, Daniel discusses an interesting late-eighties Honda that's somehow missed the boat in riding the JDM wave. Has the Honda Prelude been forgotten, or was it just 'not that interesting to car enthusiasts?'
