What’s your insurance premium like? It wouldn’t take much Googling to find out you like going fast.
No lies are told. I’m a truck mechanic from Grimsby. What’s the problem?

Expect maybe he's not got it right. 

Anyway there doesn't seem to be any incentive or drive to encourage electric or better still chargeable hybrid vehicles.

So even though there's the opportunity to reduce emissions, improve air quality and save fuel, well cost wise there is no saving to be made.  Hence nobody drives electric.

i like Guy's whole attitude when I've seen him on TV & this interview just confirmed what a proper down to earth bloke from Grimsby he is!
It ain't what you ride, it's who you ride with!!!

Really enjoyed reading this interview. Refreshing that he doesnt do all the "politically correct" non-speak we get from the politicos every day. Tells it as he sees it. Top man!
