The Miles Driven - Podcast

The Miles Driven

Miles and Sam at The Miles Driven talk cars and automotive news mixed in with the occasional anecdotes from Miles' past in the motor trade. The pair also keep you updated with news and take deep dives into the automotive world whether that be the history, the future, or the present day of cars and the people that make the industry tick. Expect lots of challenges as they muse what can be bought for certain budgets and encourage listeners to join in contemplating what they would buy if given a certain budget or requirement. Electric cars will feature on the podcast as the pair review some of the latest arrivals, however, gearheads and petrol heads will be more than at home here as the pair are ardent manual gearbox fans that still hold out hope there will be decades ahead for those that prefer their propulsion with a touch of sucking, squeezing, banging, and blowing.
