Realising their mistake and with only minutes to get the trophy to the correct location, Nissan came to the pair's rescue, with a mad dash in a Nissan GT-R supercar, the new X-Trail crossover and a helicopter! The broadcast of The Grand Detour was hosted on the Nissan Excitement FC Facebook page, UEFA.com and Goal.com. The Facebook Live broadcast used in-car cameras, plus others on motorcycles and attached to the helicopter itself. The action left fans wondering if this was staged or if the driver was simply #TOOEXCITEDTO? The new Nissan X-Trail was the star of the show, having only been unveiled to media the day before the Final at an exclusive preview event in nearby Newport. On sale from July 2017, the new X-Trail features a robust new exterior design, higher quality interior materials, new practicality for owners and additional Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies. It's the perfect car for family adventures, including days out at football matches. Jean-Pierre Diernaz, Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Nissan Europe, commented: 'Nissan wanted to celebrate the pre-match excitement of the UEFA Champions League Final in a bold way. By involving the iconic Nissan GT-R and the new Nissan X-Trail crossover in a dramatic dash across Cardiff, we have certainly done that.'
