The Last Word on Cars
Every Monday at 5.45, Anton Savage joins us to talk about all things motoring.
From master-cylinders to
motorsport, Anton and Matt discuss makes, models, problems and prices.
If you’ve
got some money to spend and want a recommendation, or if you have a squeak or a
rattle (in your car) and want to know what it is, or if you want simply to know the
difference between your e.s.p. and your a.b.s., fire us an e-mail to lastwordmotoring@todayfm.com.
About Anton
Savage:
Anton has been a petrol-head since
the age of six - when he learned to drive! Since then he’s driven all sorts of
cars, bikes, boats and quads. He’s also aged (badly). The list of vehicles
includes superbikes, race-cars, muscle cars and a long line of decrepit relics
(the ones he bought instead of borrowing.). He’s done advance driver training
with the Skip Barber race school in the States and races Formula Sheane in
Ireland with the Sheane Cars factory
team. His interest in the oily bits of cars began with a 1973 Alfasud which he
attempted to keep alive. He failed. But it led to his theory that there is
nothing you cannot do with a vise-grips and a roll of duct
tape.
He also recently re-built a
three-cylinder diesel tractor (badly – but the manual was in Chinese).
