New Car on the World’s Oldest (Cheapest) Motorsport // Lands End Trial Part 2. In this episode Jonny Smith convinces Kia to let him take a brand new Picanto GT Line on the Landsend Trial. This may be the most cost effective motorsport left, but it’s definitely not the mildest. The trial was designed over 100 years ago to prove the robustness and reliability of new motorcycles. Then cars started entering. 2024 marked the 100th running event, so Jonny wanted to see if a new car could handle the punishment.

We have used as short a clips as possible to validate said point.
