Not every car story is about horsepower or price tags — sometimes, it’s about pure passion. In this episode, Peter is joined by Will, Felix, and Director of Private Sales UK, Harvey Stanley, as they celebrate the joy of underpowered, unconventional, and deeply personal cars. From the charm of a sluggish rental van to the sentimental pull of a beloved Moke, the team explores why it’s not always about what a car is worth — but what it means to the person behind the wheel.

In one of the most jaw-dropping episodes yet, RM Sotheby’s Car Show dives headfirst into the surreal, high-octane life of Randy Lanier — IMSA champion, Indy 500 Rookie of the Year… and international drug smuggler.Join host Peter Haynes and car specialists Will Smith, Anders Bilidt, and Felix Archer as they unravel Lanier’s extraordinary double life, from racing against Porsche in a 962 to smuggling 300 tons of marijuana via go-fast boats and private planes.It’s a story of ambition, addiction (to speed), and anti-establishment rebellion — and Lanier wasn’t alone. The crew also explores the cases of Vic Lee and others who went from pit lanes to prison cells in pursuit of the motorsport dream.This episode proves that truth really is stranger than fiction. Just maybe don’t try this at home…

In this episode, the RM Sotheby’s Car Show dives into the murky world of Formula 1 rule-bending, technical loopholes, and outright scandal. From Ferrari’s marginal tire wear exclusion to Schumacher’s infamous Monaco “park job,” the team debates whether pushing the limits is genius or just plain cheating. Hosted by Peter Haynes with Car Specialists Felix Archer, Will Smith, and Anders Bilidt, the conversation races through Spygate, Crashgate, cost cap controversy, and the legacy of win-at-all-costs champions like Senna and Verstappen.RM Sotheby´s Car Show is a podcast from RM Sotheby´s EuropeHosted by Peter HaynesFeaturing Car Specialists Felix Archer, Will Smith and Anders BilidtThe Editorial Producer is Greg MacLemanEdited and Produced by Jonny Bunyan at Pardon Our French ProductionsThe Executive Producer for RM Sotheby's is Peter Haynes

New look. New theme. Same obsession with old cars — and the chaos that comes with them. In episode 2 of the brand new season, Car Specialists Will Smith and Felix Archer kick things off with a brutally honest (and occasionally hilarious) look at the collector car world in 2025. From selling once-in-a-lifetime Ferraris and museum icons, to dodging disaster in a priceless Gullwing on a mountain road, it’s clear the stakes are high — and so is the mileage. Plus, why Gen Z is snapping up Ferraris, and why your pre-war Rolls-Royce might not be worth what you think. RM Sotheby´s Car Show is a podcast from RM Sotheby´s EuropeFeaturing Car Specialists Will Smith and Felix ArcherEdited and Produced by Jonny Bunyan at Pardon Our French ProductionsThe Executive Producer for RM Sotheby´s is Peter Haynes
