This Week: Budget EV Battles, Irish Road Trips & Cupra Conversations 🇮🇪⚡️
On this episode, Nobby takes the reborn Ford Capri for some driving around Dublin while Paddy clocks serious mileage on two electric road trips in the plucky Dacia Spring.
We pit the Hyundai Inster against the Spring in a cheeky twin test — who comes out on top in the battle of the budget EVs?
Plus, Nobby jets to Barcelona to get behind the wheel of the new Ford Puma Gen-E. What’s it like to drive? He’s got all the answers.
And in our interview segment, we’re joined by Gaspar Alcaide, Brand Director of Cupra Ireland. From sunny Spain to the Emerald Isle, we talk about his journey, Cupra’s bold vision, and how the brand is striking a chord with both new and seasoned drivers.
Buckle up — it’s a good one.
