Lewis Warren from Takona: My Dad's Cars - 205GTI, Toyota Celica, Audi TT, E46 M3, 996 Turbo. S3 E7
Manage episode 400686863 series 3467873
Jon and Andy are joined by Takona founder Lewis Warren to discover what got him into cars... Fortunately for us, the blame lies very firmly at his Father's door, and there's a string of decent cars indicating why.
However, it wasn't a car thing for his Dad really, after the 205 GTI and the Toyota Celica, cars became an accessory for work. The Audi TT was the sportiest car available on the company car scheme, and as a Financial Advisor, the vehicles became an identity, and a way to demonstrate knowledge in investment, rather than a hobby.
There are some great tales, including a roadtrip to Spain in the TT with his brother, with just a Country and Western CD for entertainment... There might be a bit of travel sickness too!
Takona, as Lewis explains is a clothing brand aimed at getting car enthusiasts talking, and talking about their mental health. We'd love you to look him up www.takona.co.uk or check out the Takona Tlks podcast with a string of great guests, including recently, Jonny Smith and Richard Porter aka Smith and Sniff.
