My Dad's Car : Nostalgic cars of our childhoodShow Notes
Send us Fan Mail We are joined by Greg and Adam, owners of Viking Covers, our proud sponsor for Season 7 of the Podcast. We've never recorded as a 4 before, but we think it came out pretty well - although it does make the editing a bit harder!! Adam recalls his parent's hearing aid beige Mk2 Escort - and strangely enough, he owns one very similar now, except his has a Cosworth lump and over 400bhp!! Sadly his Mums Escort was stolen while he was at a kids party, and never rec...
More from My Dad's Car : Nostalgic cars of our childhood
Send us Fan Mail Alex Michaelides joins Andy and Jon to share how his father’s lifelong passion for cars shaped his own childhood and career. His earliest motoring memory is sitting in the family garage inside his dad’s 1985 Delta Formula Ford, surrounded by the sights and smells of a racing car. Alongside it were a rare Florida Green MGC University Special, an MGB and, later, a Ferrari 308 GT4. Alex recalls an eclectic succession of family cars, from a Mercedes W123 and Triumph Acclaim to a ...

In this bonus episode, Jon and Andy have a quick chat about summer holidays, Jon's work with grass cutting and furniture sales, Andy's rusty 944 and modern classics going up in value, and of course the fact we've had a li...
Send us Fan Mail We're joined by Tom Gray, who may be better known to you as 'That Guy Gray' an automotive content creator. He's sat in his Range Rover L322 for this interview. Tom's earliest car memory starts off with him around age 12, and a Sunbeam Alpine that he would steer from the lap of a family friend. Other motoring memories include staying up 'late' to watch Top Gear with hid Dad. His Dad was and still is, a bit of a petrol head. Prior to children he'd had a Ford Escort ...
