AM News Show: Ben Archer & Umesh Samani

Soaring inflation, the cost-of-living crisis and the knock-on effects of car supply shortages are among a host of topics covered in this episode of the AM News Show podcast.

Ben Archer, managing director of Arbury Motor Group, and Umesh Samani, owner of Specialist Cars, joined Automotive Management (AM) editor Tim Rose and news and features editor Tom Sharpe in the studio for another regular instalment of the podcast which hosts topical discussion on issues affecting the car retail sector.

And, as the UK’s economic outlook appeared to be delivering ever more challenges, Archer quipped “I almost wish they’d start talking about COVID again, if I’m being brutally honest.”
