However, the 49-year-old sat down with Plato and Vitty to reveal his deep-rooted love of cars and how he got started in his career.

Guy Berryman has the greatest car collection I’ve ever seen, claims George Clarke

Clarke revealed his love for Coldplay’s bassist Guy Berryman’s Road Rat magazine and detailed how he has the best car collection he’s ever seen.

“Guy Berryman, the bass player from Coldplay, he’s got one of the most beautiful collections ever, and he’s a massive Porsche fan,” Clarke explained.

“He’s got a magazine called Road Rat, the guy loves his cars so much. I think it comes out three times a year, or maybe once a quarter.

“It’s a beautiful, beautiful publication on the most wonderful paper, the print quality is gorgeous. You literally keep it on your shelf. I think I’ve got about 20 of them on the shelf, oh my God Road Rat is amazing.

“And it’s all Guy’s idea, he’s a big Porsche fan.”
