The Tyre Kickers - Classic Cars – Details, episodes & analysis

How much does it cost to run a classic Rolls? With prices of Silver Shadows now under £10k, could it make a great classic choice?
.
In this bonus episode, we're on location at Rolls & Bentley specialist Frank Dale & Stepsons in Surrey. We'll get under the hood and behind the wheel of some Shadows to ask if they're a classy choice to float around in - or an old barge that will drown you in bills.

More classic car banter as Max and Matt insult each other over what classic cars are best and worst. 

This time, we ask - what are the rustiest old cars, as we come up with our Tin Worm Top 10. Plus, fancy a Miura but you're a bit of a miser? We look at how to get the look of six iconic classics, for less. 

Also, are Jag E-Type finally becoming affordable again? We talk swoopy lines and tumbling prices.

And an update on what we've been doing - and what you've been saying.

So, grab a drink and join us as we kick the tyres and tell a few stories about the highs and low of owning classic motors.
