On this episode, I am delighted to joined by Vicky Parrott who is a writer, road tester and video presenter. Listen in as we learn how she was indoctrinated into loving cars from an early age, what is the best car to drive to a toilet in and which car has almost brought her to tears for all the right reasons. And because I’m rubbish at this interviewing lark I ask more questions after the QuickFire Questions.
