working at automobile reveal includes lots of perks, generally driving new vehicles nearly on a regular basis, however often we get to check out something out a bit of the ordinary. It’s these special events that we frequently keep in mind years later, whether it be sitting behind the wheel of a supercar on a closed runway or flying halfway across the world for a motor show.

But while we did some great things in 2021, lots of of us were just delighted to get out as well as about once again – satisfying up with colleagues as well as market execs. So checked out on below as each member of the automobile reveal team exposes their motoring highlight of the year.
Highlights of the year 2021
Skoda Enyaq to northern Ireland

Much of the past two years has been spent working at home, with journeys restricted to important trips only. So my highlight of 2021 has to be a appropriate road trip – as well as one spent in the business of legendary automobile reveal snapper Pete Gibson.
The plan was to drive Skoda’s new Enyaq iV in Scotland, England, Wales as well as northern Ireland on a single charge. So day one was a long run from Dumfries down to Deeside as well as then as much as Birkenhead to catch the overnight boat to Belfast. We trundled off the ship on that may morning under uncharacteristically sunny skies, as well as got a warm welcome from personnel at the city’s sensational Titanic building.
Skoda Enyaq road trip: four nations on one charge
It was the drive after that I’ve kept savouring since, though, as we headed north of Belfast on the wonderful A2 to Glenarm, spectacular cliffs on one side, the Irish Sea (and visible Scottish coastline) to the other. I liked the roads, I took pleasure in Pete’s company, as well as was blown away by the pics he took.
