About this listen

Welcome to Auto Arcadia,

Where two car obsessed guys crash headfirst into the wild world of automotive culture.

If you miss the unfiltered charm of peak Clarkson-era Top Gear, you’re in the right place.

Diving deep into the world of car culture, discussing the fascinating and ridiculous history of the infamous automotive giants, hot topics and debates, to our own personal anecdotes.

Whether a dedicated petrolhead or just a casual interest, we’ll explore everything the mechanical world has to offer.

We will be aiming to drop a new episode weekly.

  • Turbo Bricks & Swedish Speed
    Nov 16 2025

    Join us as the hosts of Auto Arcadia as we crash into the madness of automotive culture. Diving deep into the world of car culture, discussing the fascinating and ridiculous history of automotive giants, hot topics, and big questions against our own personal anecdotes.

    In this episode, we take a look at Turbo bricks from the glorious land of flatpack furniture and meatballs. That's right its time for a look at Saab and Volvo. Famous for safe and sensible cars that just do what they need to and then there's the other side of the coin .... a side of rally bred turbo madness in every drivetrain and engine configuration imaginable.

    Turns out we're big fans of Swede Speed ....
