It’s been another bumper week of news on Car Dealer and far and away the lockdown has been the biggest topic.
The rest of the world hasn’t stopped though, and this week James Baggott and Rebecca Chaplin have tried to outdo one another once again with the biggest stories that weren’t about the lockdown.
This is episode four of our new podcast, which you can listen to Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Google Podcasts. Just search for ‘Car Dealer Podcast’ on your favourite platform.
The pair discuss Elon Musk and Tesla, Apple’s first iCar, HMRC naming and shaming car dealers, new appointments in the industry and more.
In yet another well thought out head-to-head, Rebecca and James have chosen their top three stories and a point is issued every time someone picks it first.
However, as usual, things rarely go to plan when James tries to pick more stories than that.
If you’d like to find out more about any of the stories mentioned, we’ve listed them here. You’ll have to listen to the show to find out where they placed and who won though.
