Inverness to Skye
Chris and Peter set off on the first vintage roads adventure in the highlands of Scotland. Driving a vintage Morgan 4/4, they set off on military roads - often one lane and sometimes unpaved. Along the way, they visit Fort George, Loch Ness, and take a ride in a three-wheeled rally car.
Episode 02
The A30 - London to Land's End
Chris and Peter follow the old coaching road that took people to Cornwall - before motorways were built. They'll recreate Britain's first-ever recorded car journey, relive the roadside picnics of the past, and hitch a ride in one of the country's oldest haulage trucks.
Episode 03
Cardiff to Snowdonia
Chris and Peter traverse Wales on an epic 180-mile journey while setting up a vintage speed trap, hitching a lift to the top of a slate mine, and experiencing a special reunion. Chris is 100% Welsh and has never fully explored the country of his birth, until now.
