Dear Colin, if you were going to be a private detective on telly what car would you drive? And what is your favourite TV detective car? Simon Warr

Dear Simon,

A Kia Sportage. No, only joshing. It would be a Facel Vega HK500. Fantastic styling and a nice chunky American V8 under the bonnet. For the second part of your question I think it would be Jim Rockford’s Pontiac Firebird Esprit, mainly for nostalgic reasons because I loved the Rockford Files.
