James ‘Arg’ Argent said: “Driving round the countryside in a classic car and hunting for antiques with Megan McKenna was not on my 2022 bucket list, but here we are! I had the best time out on the road with the lovely Megan and, who knows, maybe antique-dealing could end up being a future career for me…”
