      I designed and built 4x4 rock crawlers out of junk for Channel 4's Scrapheap Challenge. Subsequently I supplied a restored classic 4x4 to BBC TV's Top Gear. Another of my classic 4x4s, a Mahindra CJ-3B Jeep, was used by the makers of the Bollywood comedy 'Welcome to Karachi' that was shot in 2015 in a Welsh quarry.
