Kevin McCloud's Classic Car Road Trips

Kevin gets behind the wheel of one of his dream cars, a classic 1950s Maserati 3500GT, to explore the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy - famous for its food, scenery and architecture. Kevin gains a unique insight into the history of the legendary car maker, and also learns how parmesan is made, visits a secure warehouse where thousands of wheels of parmesan are stored, and has lunch at the oldest deli in the world in in Modena.

Kevin explores Northern Ireland's stunning coastal route in a DeLorean DMC12, the gullwing car made famous by the film Back to the Future, and discovers that the excitement this car generates outweighs the controversy surrounding its creator. In Belfast, the car's owner David shows Kevin the original DeLorean test track before handing him the keys.

Kevin explores Germany's Black Forest in a 1960s Mercedes SL. At Mercedes' museum in Stuttgart, he's let loose on a replica of the first car ever made. The innovation theme continues at the Weissenhof Estate where he explores a pioneering house by Le Corbusier. At Bad Wildbad, he watches a test flight of an electric, multi-rotor helicopter that promises sustainable affordable air travel in the very near future.
