PistonHeads has arrived on The Intercooler!

We've teamed up with some old friends for your listening pleasure. And some serious gavel banging

We couldn’t be prouder of what we've built here at PistonHeads over the last 25 years. Let’s not forget that no corner of PistonHeads is the product of external development; everything you see and click and read and make use of is the result of a small team beavering away like car-obsessed beavers. It has always been this way. It is the way we like things. It is thanks to this approach that PistonHeads has remained a touchstone for UK car enthusiasts come what may. You are us. We are you. The only real difference is forum admin privileges. And T-shirts that say ‘Staff’.

And now, to complement the No.1 performance car marketplace in the UK, we've launched an auction platform. As we are fond of saying, we built the platform to do better. Much better. Obviously to do that, we’d like the word to spread like wildfire - not just among the PH faithful (who can always be trusted to note our frozen sausage of change) but also the wider car-buying British public, which is typically well aware of auctions in general and PistonHeads in particular, though not necessarily that the two have been brought together in glorious union. Like Lotus and Vauxhall. But longer term.

As a result, we’ve chosen to partner with The Intercooler, recently awarded the title of Best Automotive Consumer Publication, and the producer of what we like to think is the nation’s finest car-based podcast. To say that Ti sings from the same hymn sheet as PH is like saying BMW makes decent rear-drive cars; we know it for a cast-iron fact because Mr Dan Prosser, formerly of this parish, is the snake-hipped driving force behind both its inauguration and its recent success. And since we gave him his first writing gig, he owes us big time.

Moreover - and just to make doubly sure that we could come together like two greased drive shafts in a differential - we sent RacingPete, resident old boy and PH director-general, along to break the ice and explain to Ti’s listeners why the PistonHeads’ marketplace is the only one you really need for premium, performance and collectable cars. If you’d like to listen to what his nibs had to say, then you can catch the podcast in all the normal places - or make straight for the YT video above. But rest assured this is just the start for both our Ti partnership and our gavel-based growth spurt. Watch this space.
