1975: FYFE ROBERTSON - Has the CAR Gone TOO FAR? | Robbie | Retro Transport | BBC Archive
"Have you ever wondered what life would be like without all the cars that line our suburban streets? I know, because I grew up through the innocent infancy of the car, and we've been together, car and I, for more than half a century."
Fyfe Robertson reflects on his life with the motorcar and recalls some nostalgic memories of his life on four wheels. From the Model T Ford, via the Vauxhall 3098, to modern delights like the Rolls Royce Camargue and the humble Mini, Fyfe considers our evolving relationship with the car.
Are cars too ubiquitous nowadays? Has driving stopped being fun?
