Paul Jayson is The Motorcycle Broker and sells the kind of investment-grade motorcycles that are built to be ridden. Not just looked at. A man after my own heart.

Stuart Haslam runs the very modestly named Haslam's Body Repairs in Bolton, Lancashire. A garage where you might expect Fords, Vauxhalls, and the odd crumpled Toyota. Instead, his workshop is populated by Bentleys, Fraser Nash, and Ferraris, and people;e bring their cars from all over the world for restorations that go beyond perfection

David Eaton is the man behind the Icon 917K a road-going homage to a legendary race car, the brutal and beautiful Porsche 917K - the flat-12 engined car that dominated the Le Mans 24hrs in the early seventies.

Nathan Richardson loves a barn find, who doesn't? The difference that's instead of saving a single neglected classic from the steely embrace of the crusher he'll buy fifty, a hundred, or even more in one go.

Rupert Richards has never really met an interesting car or motorcycle that he didn't like. Inevitably he found a war to get paid to be around some of the planet's most-desirable motors and his family home Gawsworth Hall hosts two of the North-West's best car shows.

Simon Hope is one the 'H's in the classic car and bike auctioneers, H&H. He's sold a Ferrari 250 for twelve-and-a-half million dollars and once shifted 2 million quid's worth of motorcycles in a single day. But he's never ridden a motorcycle, although that may change after this interview.

'Tim Layzell was voted Young Motoring Artist of the Year when just thirteen. That was a while ago and he's since been established as one of the world's best-known painters who choose cars as their subject matter. He also loves TVRs, but then we all do - don't we.'

Anna-Louise Felstead is an acclaimed artist who is immersed in the world of historic motor racing.

Laurence Sayers-Gillan has bought and sold more cars than he cares to or indeed can remember. He's been involved in motorsport and the collector car world for long enough to have accumulated a stack of stories to amuse, inform and entertain those of an automotive bent.
