The Scenic Route: The Cambrian Way
We are back with Jason Plato, Daniel Rowbottom, and Jodie Kidd, as they return for their second epic adventure — The Scenic Route: The Cambrian Way.
This time, the trio takes on a spectacular journey across Wales from north to south, exploring dramatic mountain passes, sweeping valleys, and iconic landmarks.

The big question once again: which car will come out on top for this ultimate Welsh road trip?
