After an unplanned couple of weeks off from podcasting, Ajmal and Marc catch up on all things life. Oh, and a bit of Porsche Talk.
Your regular update on Ajmal's garage project, Marc's report from road tripping the GT4, and the Bicester Scramble event Ajmal did not attend. Wait, what?
Marc tries his best to divert the podcast to being an SUV special, with the release of the new Cayenne, but Ajmal was having none of it. Rant included free of charge.
A short celebration of Porsche Penske Motorsport's first victory in the 963, on their journey to Le Mans. Anyone think they will succeed in Porsche's 75th year? They'll need to find some pace.
Marc opens up about his guilty pleasure motor car(s), to alarmingly discover Ajmal's!
Got a Tiptronic, and love it? We want to hear from you about how good they are in real life, compared to the bollocking the media give them.

Ajmal also chose today's song. It is a cracker too.
Love is Better than a Warm Trombone by Gomez, from the album Bring it On, released in 1998.
Please take a moment to remember the fallen men and women of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps this ANZAC Day.

Ajmal & Marc are joined by Peter Thompson from Independent Porsche workshop, Purely Porscha in Perth Western Australia.
His background with Ferrari and Porsche along with a life rallying, adventure trekking around Australia, across the European Alps and across the South American Andes in a Cayenne as mechanical support has well prepared him for starting his own business.
Peter chose our intro song, which is a classic. Let us know your opinion.

Ajmal & Marc catch up on a number of topics, after the buzz of last episode. Marc has a few jobs to do with the 356 this week, Ajmal is counting the days for the weather to change, to get the 912 out and about.
Marc is NOT going to the Melbourne F1, but plans are afoot to co drive in an off-road Rally in Morocco in 2024. He also gets up close and personal with a new 992 Sport Classic. Stay tuned for his opinion.
Ajmal, explains why there was an ambulance parked in his driveway this week...
What and why for this week's song.

AJmal & Marc catch up with Henry Catchpole. Yes, that Henry Catchpole, from EVO, Carfection, Hagerty's, you know the one. They ask his perspective and opinion on many things Porsche. From his first Porsche drive to his three, yes three experiences driving GT1s. Also Rally Escorts, not rally Renault Clios, and a throwaway comment about swanning around in a 959 last week!
Have you wondered what it would have been like at the Valkyrie launch?
Henry may very well be most famously remembered in years to come for inventing the "Motorised Pick Axe." Wait, what? You better listen.
Ajmal picked this week's intro song, and explains why, have a listen and tell him what you think.
They still have a Porsche licensed thumb drive in the shape of a 918 Spyder to giveaway too.
The boys love it when you engage.

Ajmal and Marc are again joined by Max Newman, co-host of 9 werks radio. After the extended update of Ajmal's garage plans, along with life in an old listed house, Marc asks the question, "In the romantic era of Porsche endurance racing, was it looked at then with the same enthusiasm it is now?" This was followed by teh need/want of Formula-E, and where is it headed?
Max's money no limit Porsche is a surprising one, and amazing. So tune in to hear Marc's latest song of his youth, and reach out to win this month's giveaway. A Porsche licensed thumb drive in the shape of a 918 Spyder.
All engagement welcome, so reach out to them.

Ajmal and Marc talk about the possibility that air-cooled 911's might be obtainable again in the near future. Marc ticks over 30k (kilometres) in his GT4 as Ajmal ticks over 160k (miles) in his 996. Ajmal talks earthworks, and his never coming garage.
The offer to Dr Sebastian Rudolph, editor of Christophorus is put out there to come on, and tell us about the publication. This combined with the normal erratic car talk, that is often Porsche.
We're giving away an official Porsche licensed thumb drive, that is also a 918 Spyder. Ok a little one.
Want to know what Ajmal's song choice was this week?
Tune in now.

Ajmal and Marc have Joe Gauci as a guest, one of the team responsible for recently starting an independent Porsche Car Club. Want to do it yourself? Listen here.
Marc shares some influential music from his youth, and exposes that he might no longer be as young as he thinks he is! It's ok though, because Ajmal will be doing the same next episode.
And believe it or not, Ajmal has actually done his homework on how cheap you can own a brand new 992 Carrera for in the UK, with one simple monthly payment....

Ajmal and Marc are all over the new Endurance racing season, and Porsche's disappointing start. How much is the cheapest way into a new 992 Carrera in Australia? Someone say rust? Drive your cars people! Do not let them sit.
Marc received a book from a friend of the Podcast, Hushke Von Hanstein - The Racing Baron. An autobiography by Tobias Aichele. Great history of a great man that is pivotal in Porsche going motor racing, back in the 50's.
The winner of the Porsche Phone Charger is announced...
