My grandfather on one side was trained as a cabinetmaker but eventually worked as a coachbuilder and then built cars. I inherited from him a love of cars, but with no technical ability whatsoever, sadly!

I mostly drive around in a Fiat 500 TwinAir, and that's a pretty small car!

My first car was a 1976 Toyota Corolla Liftback in red, like the one in 'The Blues Brothers.' I painted a Union Jack on the roof. I was absolutely in love with it until I destroyed it, which broke my heart!

No action hero is more closely associated with cars than James Bond.

Most of my technical knowledge comes from having worked in the industrial video industry.

The easiest and simplest thing that any one can do to make their car safer, more gas efficient, whatever - check the tire pressure.
