Listen now
Description
This week, Sami and Ed join us to give us a peek into the Mongol Rally, the crazy 10,000 mile road trip that they will be undertaking in 2023. This is like nothing you've seen on The Grand Tour, we're talking 20 countries and up to 3 months on the road. Not enough? Oh, did we mention the maximum engine capacity is 1,200cc? We talk about how they're preparing for the trip, get the download on the cars they've chosen and talk about the reason they are going on this epic yet clearly insane adventure. We also touch on UAE car clubs, with Sami currently heading up the Dubai Renault Club and Ed managing the very small yet dedicated UAE Morgan Club.
