It’s me, Mark Stone, and in this episode of the Backseat Driver Podcast, I sit down with Daniel Beavis, editor of Copacetic magazine, to explore how the publication is redefining the perception of modified cars in today’s automotive culture.Together, Daniel and I trace the evolution of car modification, from the vibrant yet often stigmatised scene of the 1990s through to its modern expression, which now embraces everything from high-end restorations to one-off project builds. Daniel shares the magazine’s vision to destigmatise modifications by uncovering the diverse stories behind each vehicle, helping to foster a more open and inclusive community for enthusiasts.I also delve into the broader implications of this cultural shift, the hurdles of launching a new magazine in a changing marketplace, and the financial realities that come with such an ambitious venture. Throughout, I share my enthusiasm for Copacetic’s fresh perspective and the impact it could have on the way modified cars are celebrated and understood.___https://pod.link/1656058575Visit our sponsorsGAZ Shocks 116 TrophyHodder TyresTarox BreaksSAS AutosListen Now Mentioned in this episode:Tarox BrakesSponsored by TAROX Brakes
