Hi and welcome to the Driving Experience.  This is Kevin Pennell your host and I’m welcoming three guests on this special episode, Mike Self, Rob Siegel, and Andrew Wilson.  These veterans of road tripping will be sharing their adventures, misadventures, preparation guidelines, and the fun that awaits any traveler for a real road trip adventure.  I even have a couple adventures myself!  Without anything further, let’s buckle up and get ready for Road Trip Adventures on this edition of the Driving Experience!

This episode of the Driving Experience takes us to the coast of Maine as Andrew Wilson and I enjoy a casual conversation with Villi Enders.  Villi makes his living in Maine in the medical community.  But he has another passion which began in his teenage years in Europe.  The passion, collecting cars.  This casual conversation is quite enjoyable as we stroll down Villi’s memorable and knowledge filled pathways.  He’ll also be sharing some invaluable information on what to look for and avoid when looking at acquiring classic cars.  Villi maintains his 60 plus collection of cars, mostly European, including Mercedes, Volkswagen, Fiat, Peugeot, Opel, and BMW.  Then there’s the Bentley and Jaguar.  Villi can share the history, as he knows it, for all these cars.  So, why does he have such a vast personal collection?  He looks at collecting cars as being a Curator of Automotive History.  Let’s join Villi as he shares his early motivation for collecting many of these cars.

Get your driving gloves, driving glasses, and driving spirit ready.  It’s time once again for the Driving Experience.  This is your host Kevin Pennell.  This week we’re visiting with Clara Loose from central Florida.  A couple years ago, Clara was interviewed for an article in BMWs Roundel Magazine as one of the youngest members of the BMW CCA.  So, that’s one part of her story.  Her first BMW 2002 saved her life after she was run off the road and rolled it nine times, and she walked away!  If that isn’t enough, she also has a passion for restoring a riding classic Vespas.  Keep listening as we hear from Clara Loose who is Living Her Driving Experience!
