Summary
Whatever happened to making stuff that just works? We talk about obsolescence, scratch the surface on CAFE regs, and wax poetic about the most beautiful form factor you can buy, if you're lucky. PLUS! A sort-of update on the Peugeot 505? Your producer pal Matty experienced some technical difficulties during recording, so enjoy the edit and some nice Rory and Peter back & forth this week. You can support Alloy with a membership here: https://alloymag.com/sign-up/ And read Peter's recent contribution to Alloy's Film Friday here: https://alloymag.com/the-best-car-movie-of-all-time/ where he explains his pick for the best car movie of all time. Get Peter's new record Half-Staff Blues here: https://peterpeterhughes.bandcamp.com/album/half-staff-blues Your producer pal Matty, who writes these, has nothing to plug except of course, our Patreon paid tier where all our extra-fun episodes go. support my wonderful co-hosts ty ty ty ˖⁺‧₊˚ ♡ ˚₊‧⁺˖
