We’re back! After technical difficulties kept us off the air last week, we’ve returned with another excellent episode for your listening enjoyment. Tim was still unavailable due to moving, but we’re joined by a veteran guest of the show. Plenty of good discussion & interesting stories, including the Motor Trend comparison test between the 2011 Mustang GT & the BMW M3 Coupe, the first MINI Countryman, and more! All that plus more news & listener calls, this week on RoundelTable!
RoundelTable airs live every Tuesday at 8PM ET/5PM PT, 0100 UTC. To listen live & talk in the chat room, visit live.wheelspin.tv. To contact us, send emails to [email protected].
