Welcome back to season 5 of My Dad's Car!
We are joined by Paul Gardner from SpeedBroker who found us through our popular social media game 'Car Spotting Tennis' in which we trade interesting vehicle spots with a racquet sports twist.
It was a black Citroen BX that Jon spotted that used to belong to Paul's Dad.
He had a run of mundane cars Paul recalls...
Boring stuff - Toyota Corolla, Citroen BX (boring at the time), Nissan Primera, Almera, Mum's Mini, Morris Minor the list goes on...
Along with the rebellion from his parents bade taste was his Uncle's taste in motor vehicles that lit the spark, firstly a pair of matching Tornado Red Mk2 Golf GTI's, then his Mk3 Cavalier GSI 'was the fastest car in the world' when he was a kid!

We also explore music (Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen) breaking down in a tunnel in a friends Skoda Rapide...
