The Car Years: The 1966 playlist

The Car Years is back on ITV4 and we’re proud to announce that Adrian Flux are sponsors of series 3! Hosted by Alex Riley and Vicki Butler-Henderson, each presenter has to choose a car from a specific year and convince a panel of esteemed judges, including Ben Collins, Richard Porter, and Karun Chandhok, that their motor is the best of that year.

And along with looking at two of the best cars from the year 1966, the presenting duo will detail world events (including a certain World Cup for England), fashion, and what made the news headlines that year.

In Episode 5, Alex and Vicki pit the Jensen Interceptor FF and one of Britain’s greatest sports cars, the Lotus Europa against each other, both iconic vehicles from 1966.

But that’s not all, in light of the swinging sixties, we asked Alex and Vicki to pick their favourite songs from this very special year, with songs featuring artists such as The Supremes, The Rolling Stones, and The Beatles to name a few. This playlist will give you all kinds of 60s nostalgia.
