We're joined by Charlotte Vowden, Motoring journalist, automotive adventurer and presenter.

Her story with cars hasn't always been a passion. It starts with her Grandads Mk3 Escort, and how he would pick her up from school and 'save her' from the bullies who would throw footballs at her head as she made her way to the gate.

The car was nothing special, except it really was special.

Her Dad was a mobile mechanic, so was busy working a lot of the time, but his skills have really come into their own in more recent years as Charlotte inherited an MGA roadster from her other Grandfather, and she's been on a number of life affirming roadtrips since taking over the ownership.

From driving the length of the UK on sustainable fuel, to mimic the 1000 mile test from days gone by, to driving to Nordcapp, the furthest accessible point north, in Norway.

Please do follow what Charlotte gets up to on Instagram, where you'll also find photos from her car based adventures.

We're joined by Steve Clyde from Gyeon UK this week. His earliest car memory is a gold Peugeot 504 Estate, and taking 8 or 9 family members down to Cornwall for holidays.

After Vauxhall Chevette followed, which was his first experience of his Dad in a rear wheel drive car. He’d previously owned a Mk2 and Mk10 Jaguar before kids came along.

His brother is older than him, and he recalls him taking him to a family photography session is his Capri, a drifting around a corner only to be spotted by his parents waiting outside the studio. His Mum was shocked, his Dad secretly proud!
