    Founded by Allan and Pat Bajari in 1964, and still family-run today, Windy Hill Auto Parts is one of our favourite junkyards.

I’ve developed a bit of a reputation for embarking on unconventional motorway adventures in Renault trucks. In 2008, I spent a dizzying 24 hours continuously circling the M25 – London’s orbital motorway – in a Renault Magnum. Then, in 2020, I completed a full lap of the M25 in an E-Tech D on a single charge.
