TL:DR - What does Lord Grantham drive? The Cars of Downton Abbey.

from BREAK/FIX the Motorsports & Vehicle Enthusiast Variety Show · host Gran Touring Motorsports

"He's nice. He likes cars, and he's mad about you. I rest my case." - says Tom Branson to Lady Mary about Henry Talbot. Initially, I figured… meh! - Downton Abbey is going to be some stuffy pre-war British soap drama, it’ll be just OK, I’ll give it an episode or two. But I found myself rather enamored by all aspects of it. The show has its moments of exaggerated drama and bits of upstairs/downstairs… but each episode is packed and feels like a separate movie and not a serial or episodic story. Oh yea, and there's lot of interesting cars in there too!  Articles from the TL:DR mini-series can be found on gtmotorsports.org; and if you'd like early access to these minisodes, be sure to check out our Patreon. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Overview of Downton Abbey 00:59 The Cars of Downton Abbey 02:43 Behind the Scenes Insights 03:48 Racing at Brooklands 06:19 Dramatic Turn of Events 06:44 Final Thoughts and Recommendations 07:39 Closing Remarks and GTM Information ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/
