In this week's show, shortages in semiconductor manufacturing and the resurgence of COVID in the region continues to ravage the global automotive supply chain, the MotoGP skips the Malaysian GP and Toyota wins the Le Mans 2021. We take an early Pit Stop in Part 1 as Daniel discusses barn finds: what to look out for and what it might cost to restore one.

 

In Part 2, we go through the car launches, starting with the chic Renault Arkana , the pricey Land Rover Defender and the divisive Genesis GV60. Finally in Part 3, Daniel brings us an unlikely comparison between two great small crossovers in the RM250k Volvo XC40, and the RM174k Mazda CX-5 2.5 Turbo.
