The Ring Run #2: 4 Warning Lights and a Bulldog Sticker
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
It had zero miles of fuel.
Four warning lights.
A parking sensor that wouldn’t shut up.
A clutch with anger issues.
And, for reasons still unclear, a bulldog sticker on the back window.
This episode is the real first test — not the Nürburgring… just getting it home.
No cinematic reveal. No dramatic music.
Just me, an empty fuel tank, a dashboard that looks like a Christmas tree, and the growing suspicion that I may have made a mistake.
Cheap Thrills is about real cars, real money, and real risk.
And this drive? This is where the story actually starts.
Will it make it to Germany?
At this point… I’m not even sure it’ll make it past Tesco.
