EPISODE 11 - NEWS, VIEWS, PICTURES & LINKS FROM THE SHOW

Jason Dawe, Penny Mallory, Zoë Hardman and Chris Piper present the Used Car Roadshow which is all about real cars for real people.

In tonight’s episode Jason and Penny meet buyer Laura Scholey who wants a smart used hatchback to suit her new job for her budget of £6,000.

In Auction Fever we find Zoë Hardman and Chris Piper down at the auction with potential buyer Ian Whitcombe. The auction gets pretty hectic so will Zoë and Pipes be able to steady Ian’s nerve and help him avoid a dose of auction fever?

In the workshop we re-live a Teenage Kick with a very beautiful Aston Martin Vantage. With a list price of over £100,000 when it was new it might be the most expensive used car the team have ever featured.

In Body and Soul proud owner Adam Pawson shows off his Ford Fiesta 1.25 Zetec.

It’s a pretty impressive piece of automotive engineering that’s been tweaked, tuned and restyled.

Up at the track Penny explains all there is to know about traction control. It’s a feature more and more cars are getting but sometimes it takes an ex-rally driver like Penny to show us just what this clever piece of electronics can do.

Finally we get another example of Free Motoring; the cars that Jason predicts you can run depreciation free for a year. With summer upon us this week’s example is sure to cause a stir as he reviews the stylish and now affordable Audi TT Cabriolet.
