Episode 7. Ben Burns we raced my Grandad to Saint-Tropez with a Phil Collins tape playing on repeat!

Jon and Andy are joined by Jon's good friend Ben Burns. 
A few notes before we tell you what's in store.

  • We know Phil Collin's album was actually called No Jacket Required... 
  • Ben's Dad is called Phil, but he's not Phil Collins
  • There are a couple of little sound glitches on Ben's recording, sorry about that.

Ben share's memories of a blue Ford Escort estate, racing his Grandparents in their Shogun to Saint-Tropez. The Escort was later replaced with a 1982 Rover SD1. 
A few tales of Ben's own vehicles made it in to the episode too, a Vauxhall Nova, and a Harley that he bought without having a license! 
Hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it - there's plenty of laughter!
