    Not too hot, not too cold... The best Goldilocks cars #199

    Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel discuss the best Goldilocks cars – the pick of the bunch, the highlight of the model range. Sometimes they are the most powerful, other times the least, and often they come from right in the middle of the line-up. So which Porsche Boxster is best? How much power do you really want in your Caterham Seven? Is the most expensive Porsche 911 the best? Was the hardcore R the best Mercedes-AMG GT? What was the most enjoyable Audi R8?

Episode 201

Excellent episode, and I have a solution to the F1 problem you spoke about - a very simple solution. The new rule is that Adrian Newey is forced to go to a new team every other year. Done! We have a rotating list of championship contenders, teams clinging onto their Neweyism vs teams just updating their Newey level. It would be incredible.

Quantum leap sound quality improvement!

Great podcasts—loved the autobahn/speed limits discussion. Surprised you did not include concerns about. Massively fast and heavy EVs and crash impact concerns.

Outstanding Car podcast. A must for any car enthusiast

I was looking for a great podcast to listen to in my garage while tinkering on my car. I found the Mr Harris one and work through that before finding an acknowledgment to The Intercooler on another auto podcast. So I gave this a try and have been working through some of the back catalogue.

Dan is an awesome conversationalist and Andrew’s knowledge is legendary. They are a great pairing. I was really surprised how many of the topics in the other podcast ended up being simply ripped off from topics discussing here.

As a Brit living in Texas born around the time of Mr Frankle I can really appreciate the era of his roots… top trumps.

Great work. Great quality. Great content.
