This week, the team put on their thinking hats/balaclavas with their answer to the 2CG on how to get away with a bank robbery! They also debate the merits of Shell V-Power – or more specifically its alternatives – and their views on the Ferrari 296 sales numbers. This and much more – we hope you enjoy!

(00:00) Intro

(00:50) Ferrari has allegedly stopped taking orders for 296’s – due to many going unsold. Is this a large error, or just a blip on the radar for the behemoth that is Ferrari?

(17:45) Shell has run out of V-Power – do you use the ‘cheap’ Shell stuff or go to BP for its 97 octane?
