Takona Tlks with Automotive youtuber Freddie Hernandez aka Tavarish. One of Americas and possibly the worlds biggest automotive youtube content creators. Freddie has built his name around the phrase "I am the warranty" and his journey has taken him from fixing his cars on a driveway to buying flood damaged Mclaren P1's to build into something unique.

We sat down for a good old chat about his journey, some of the harder things to manage in being so well known, along with the usual life, the universe and everything.

Takona Tlks with Miles Hardy, Sales director at HPC Classics in Eastbourne, and someone who's been a friend for a couple of years now. Miles has an incredibly deep knowledge on a broad range of cars, but his real passion is for all things TVR.

A true testament to how cars bring people together from all over, Miles and I had chatted here and there on facebook for a couple of years before ever actually meeting in person and when we did it was like we'd been best mates our entire lives.

If you've been to practically any major car event in the last few years you may have seen Rob, and possibly even had coffee from him.

Rob and I have become good friends over the last few years, thanks to his outgoing and vibrant personality, and his ability to make a stellar cup of coffee.

The boxed drinks coffee trucks have grown from a simple horse box trailer into a fleet of classic and vintage coffee trucks, a 2CV van, and a Land Rover Defender 90 Pickup. Instantly recognisable, and built from a passion for not only interesting vehicles, but fantastic style and humour around the liveries they wear.
