"It's given me a taste for the kind of cars I can't afford!"Fyfe Robertson has technically never passed his Driving Test, so for him to consider taking the wheel of a high performance sports car or - even worse - a Formula 1 racer, would be foolhardy in the extreme.
Luckily for Robbie, John Miles - a driving instructor on the British School of Motoring's High Performance course - is on hand to instruct him in the art of high speed driving, over three days at the Brands Hatch circuit. Fyfe tries his hand at controlled skidding in a Ford Escort, high speed cornering in a Jensen-Healey convertible before finally taking a crack at the lap record.
Clip taken from Robbie: Performance, originally broadcast on BBC One, 4 July, 1973.
