Beetle to Pakistan, Kop Hill in a Ferrari & Cars for High Streets! | BCG Therapy w/ Sy & Fiona

BrownCarGuy Therapy: Fiona Easterby & Syeed Ali of Drivers Union!

In this wild and heartfelt episode of BrownCarGuy Therapy Session, we welcome adventurer and TV camera operator Fiona Easterby, alongside our regular guest Sy.

Fiona shares her incredible stories of overlanding across continents — from buying a £99 Beetle and driving it across the Sahara Desert to Gambia, to an epic journey from the UK to Singapore, passing through Iran and Pakistan in her beloved Baja Bug, Pedro.

You’ll hear about:

🚙 Real-world adventures in classic cars — from Europe to Asia

🏜️ The Plymouth-Banjul Challenge, Mongol Rally, and travelling through war zones

🔋 Fiona's experience owning a converted electric Beetle – and why it was a disaster

🇵🇰 How she found Pakistan safer and more hospitable than expected

🧾 Sy's rage about garage-blocking drivers, ridiculous parking fines, and the war on motoring access

🏁 Fiona & Sy’s thoughts on recent events like Brooklands German Day, Kop Hill Climb, and AMG GT drives at Brands Hatch and Silverstone

⚡ EV reliability issues, e-fuels, and the future of classic car ownership

This is one of the most human, funny, and raw episodes yet — a true tribute to car culture, global travel, and what it's like to live life behind the wheel.
