More pictures of Paddy, Freddie and Chris's dad's cars

Ford Cortina vs Fiesta vs BMW 323i, aka Freddie vs Paddy vs Chris. Did the winner surprise you?

Chris attempts to prove how good (or not) he is at reversing.

Barn finds of the sweetest possible kind. The presenters look proud as punch beside cars that mimic their pas'.

It's an E21 with twin headlights each side. Know what that means, Internet? Yup, six cylinders.

Believe it or not, Chris hadn't been behind the wheel of an E21 BMW 323i - his dad's car growing up - until the show.

Freddie basks in the brownness of his Cortina 1.6 GL's interior.

It says a lot about the charm of a buttercup yellow Fiesta that the other cars don't overshadow its presence.

A fair bit of smoke as Freddie's Ford pulls away...

...but Harris's BMW isn't far behind.

Look at its tiny steel rims, barely as big as a modern Fiesta's brake discs.

It's no spoiler alert to reveal our three are completely smitten after a day in their dad's cars.
