In the final episode of this series of Fuelling Around, Jason and Dave are joined by actor Simon Gregson who's played Steve McDonald in Coronation Street for the last 35 years! When he's not been out on the cobbles or propping up the bar in the Rovers Return, Simon has clearly been busy buying and selling cars, as he's certainly had plenty of stock over the last 3 decades! From a Renault 5 Turbo to a Ferrari 328, Simon's had them all and his car collection shows no sign of slowing down, as is apparent, as he walks the lads through his varied and eclectic garage!

He's the ultimate rock 'n' roll frontman, but Justin Hawkins from The Darkness also possesses a penchant for performance cars, and like his catsuits, he likes them to be exotic and flamboyant! This is a brilliant episode as Jason and Dave take a walk down Justin's memory lane of motors, and talk about his future days on track, now that he's passed his ARDS racing licence!

He's without doubt one of the biggest stars of YouTube, and has built a following of galactic proportions! Colin Furze is an engineer, an adventurer and a real life inspector gadget! He's built a secret bunker in his garden and an underground tunnel that links said bunker to his house, plus there's also a subterranean garage that will house his prized Delorean! Oh and he's a bit of a petrolhead as well, although Colin's approach to cars is like his approach to most things in life, ever so slightly unconventional! This is a brilliant episode and one to certainly watch, like and share, while not worrying too much about the lack of a traditional risk assessment!

He was brought up in his father's prestigious luxury car garage, but Tom Hartley Jnr had plans to create the ultimate car dealership trading the world's most exquisite classic and performance cars, and that's exactly what he's done from his base in the midlands! When you've sold individual rarities for more than £60m each and have your eyes set on several trillion pounds worth of future business deals, then this is clearly no ordinary garage, as Tom explains to Jason and Dave in this jaw dropping episode!

This week Jason introduces Dave to his old mate Dario Franchitti. Jason and Dario raced together when they were much younger, before Dario moved to the states to become a big name in Indy Car. He won the championship four times and the infamous Indy 500 three times, and despite some terrifying crashes, is still around to tell the tales. These days his life is a much more sedate one, and his success has afforded him a fantasy garage of automotive exotica, which he's happy to give the lads a tour of, 'provided it doesn't make me sound like a dick' he says, which of course it most certainly doesn't!
