Episode 8 - European Roads, Dad Driving or Bad Driving, and the Veyron

"Monsieur. Just put on your indicator and go." This eternally decent advice both informs and terrifies as Nick and Sam rush bravely screaming into Parisian traffic, bunny-hopping around centuries-old landmarks, and discovering what real mountains have to teach about real driving. If you've ever been involved in backing a trailer, either on the supply or demand side, you'll recognise the cross-handed reverse-but-in-the-mirror style of driving with which our own fathers make magic, somehow squeezing through impossible gaps.But really, this episode's story is our feature car. The feature car on every piece of driving media since its creation, even if it's not specifically mentioned. The New Standard. Motoring's "Concord Moment" (according to Clarkson). What literal dreams are made of. You know because you know, and also have read the episode title. Listen to the hopeful tale of how we came up close and personal with history. Hosted on Acast.
