Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel consider why the McLaren W1 and Ferrari F80 haven't caused the same excitement among enthusiasts as hypercars from the past. Are we just bored with very low-volume, extremely high-performance machines that few of us will ever get to experience for ourselves? Is there something inherently wrong with this new batch of hypercar? Dan and Andrew also look back at the best hypercars of all time to see how the sector has evolved over the past four decades.Use coupon code pod15 at checkout to get 15% off a subscription to The Intercooler's online car magazine!

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel review the new hybrid BMW M5. With 717bhp it's easily the most powerful M5 yet, but at 2435kg it's the heaviest by a distance too. Has BMW M managed to overcome all that weight to make another great M5? Dan and Andrew also discuss Lando Norris's racing efforts in 2024 and talk to McLaren Automotive materials engineer Ella Podmore.Get 10% off Christmas gift subscriptions to The Intercooler's online car magazine for a short time only!

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel discuss perhaps their least favourite Porsche 911 variant, the Turbo. Now in its half-centenary year, the 911 Turbo has long been one of the fastest cars on the road. But among 911s, argue Dan and Andrew, it's also tended to be one of the least engaging to drive.

When Tuthill unveiled the stunning GT One hypercar at Car Week this summer, this small British Porsche specialist became famous around the world overnight. Richard describes the hype around that car and talks about the equally sensation 911K, his company's background in rallying and racing, plus his own driving career.Use coupon code pod15 at checkout to get 15% off a subscription to The Intercooler's online car magazine!

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel review two of the year's most exciting new cars... and they could hardly be more different. The new Renault 5 EV is one of the best-looking small cars in years, while the Ferrari 12Cilindri is the latest in a long and vaunted line of front-engined Ferrari V12s. But are they everything we hoped for? Dan and Andrew also reflect on another wonderful Sunday Scramble at Bicester Heritage and take a look at the used car marketplace.
