When considering vehicles, Hippo Creek Steakhouses owner Gareth Simpson likes change - and zebra stripes.

MY CAR


I'm currently driving a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 9. It's renowned for rally driving and circuits, and packs a punch under the bonnet.

Its light weight makes it a good performance car and the zebra stripes make it distinctive on the racetrack.

MY DREAM CAR


Nissan R35 GTR. But it doesn't fit a baby seat, so my wife will never let me buy it.

MY FIRST CAR


My first car was a 1988 Mazda 626. I saved up for it and my parents went halves with me so I could afford it.

Back then, I thought it was the coolest thing ever.

REVHEAD RATING (1-5)


I'm a five out of five.

I get bored easily, so I never have the same car for longer than a year.

I'm now 31 and since I was 18, I've owned 14 different cars.
