The Driven Podcast Paramex Digital

This week on The Driven Podcast, John Marcar obsesses over a very special racing car. The car in question is the 1992 winner of the Spa 24 Hours, The BMW Fina BASTOS M3, which the equally legendary Steve Soper drove.
Steve Soper is this week's guest alongside ex-business partner turned co-racing driver Toby Partridge to discuss the return and rebirth of such a special car. Steve, Toby, and John Marcar discuss the story behind the car, the iconic race that Steve won in 1992, and the plans for the car moving forward.
This podcast is released alongside a video available to watch on our youtube channel very soon.

This week, on the Driven Podcast, John Marcar and Miles Lacey visit CALLUM in Warwick and meet car design royalty Ian Callum CBE and Aleck Jones.
Ian Callum is likely to be a name that needs no introduction thanks to his frankly marvellous portfolio of car designs, including the Ford Puma, Aston Martin DB7, Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, Jaguar iPace, and the Nissan R390 Le Mans Car (to mention just a tiny handful!).
Aleck Jones is the head of design for CALLUM working directly with Ian. Aleck comes from a strong design background, which has seen him involved in various products from Jaguar cars, Triumph motorcycles and Land Rover, including the new (L663) Defender. 
Ian, Aleck, Miles and John discuss the CALLUM business and work through the many products, projects and creations that are now finding their way onto driveways, roads and inside houses, too.

This week, it's all about the bikes (but not exclusively!), as Amy and John visited Royal Enfield's UK HQ in Leicestershire. Greeting us there and joining us for the podcast episode is designer and head of Custom and Motorsport, Adrian Sellers. Alongside Adrian is James Bannister. James heads up the global creative strategy department, ensuring (in his own words) that the brand stays relevant and does cool things!
This recording took place back in a cold and wintery February 2024 (hence the cold weather chat) but is relevant now as we have on test a brand new Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 - a bike that Adrian led the design for.

John, Amy, and Miles reunite for a catch-up midway through the first season of the new Driven Podcast. In this week's episode, we discuss various topics and questions, including whether or not you can fit a casket in a Volvo 940. Is there any point in Carbon ceramic brakes? Should everyone have experience driving lorries and motorcycles before driving cars?
We also worked through some spectacular stories from our listeners from speed awareness courses, with the grand prize for the best prize being awarded to Karl Hill.
