About this episode
Send a textWe're joined for this episode by guest co-host Paul Harding. Paul is a previous guest, and was featured on S4 E4. Today's actual guest is Gary Handa. He's currently working with Sporting Bears supporting their marketing and media activity. His parents are both Doctors, and came to this county from India with only a small amount of cash in their pockets. Gary is rightfully very proud of what they made of themselves, and equally, the pride he remembers his father having when he bought his 1976 Mercedes, brand new, outright. His first memory is a VW 411 Estate, a now very rare aircooled VW with a rear engine and front boot area. They were the Passat of the day. Gary's Mum had a brown Mercedes estate when he was a teenager, and he used to dress up in his dad's shirt and tie, and take it for a drive whilst his parents were at work. They eventually cottoned on, when the trip odometer wasn't reset to zero after his activities! We go on to talk about previous cars of Gary's and then whether he'd like to repeat any of his parent's choices... which leads us on to his next purchase - an Audi TT diesel, or a BMW 3 series!
