  • Hooray, you’re back!

    Missed you guys during your break, but loving the new format. It feels like the show has had a real “glow up” and it’s great! What a bloody brilliant selection of guests for the new series, I am excited to hear them all. But the “hosts” episodes with John, Miles and Amy chatting and laughing away are always my favourite. Keep up the good work.

Driving Heroes - Lloyd Hackett and Karl Hill
Q: What constitutes a Driving Hero in your stock criteria?
A Driving Hero is something that is either truly interesting or genuinely fun to drive, and ideally both. We avoid stuff that doesn't resonate with enthusiasts, preferring cars that we would personally want in our own garage and can stand behind long-term.
Driving Heroes - Lloyd Hackett and Karl Hill
Q: How did you guys meet and decide to form Driving Heroes?
We were long-time friends who met through the car trade and shared a passion for interesting, enthusiast-focused cars. After individual stints at Land Rover and other shops, we realized a joint venture could balance the business side with our love for special cars, leading to the launch.
