TECHNICIANS INSIGHT
LIFE OUTSIDE b a L The P
hil, Thanks for agreeing to chat with me and taking the time to gives a bit of an insight into what you get up to outside of your professional life. Although we converse lots online via facebook, I don’t think I have met you in person!? Or maybe we did briefly at one of the Showcases, they seem to be such a distant memory don’t they? Why did I ask you to help me with this feature? Well, you seem to share some similar values and interests to myself. Lets start there! You’re a bit of a petrol head right? Tell me a bit about that...
What’s on your drive at the minute?
At the moment its the latest Porsche Cayenne hybrid fully loaded. I pretty much chose every optional extra as I was worried I would find it a
little boring after driving high performance cars for the last 25 years! Only thing I miss is engine noise as I no longer drive fast. Honestly. What’s the best/worst/fastest car you’ve driven?
Best car I think I would say is either my competition pack 4 litre V8 BMW M3. It was the 1st car that felt special and joint 1st with that was the Porsche 911 C4S. I loved that car, wish I had kept it as I drive past it occasionally and it still looks mint! The worse car has to be the 1st Audi TT. I had the 220 version and it was forever in the dealers getting repaired, everything went wrong on it, servo unit, turbos, steering. I got sick of it and traded it in for a Mini Cooper S after 9 months. I did also have an Audi S3 which was an awesome car, so I thing I just got a dog with the TT.
I approached Phil Reddington – Technical Director at Beever Dental Technology about his life outside the lab. Phil seems to be a prolific technician who clearly enjoys his work and looking at some of his cases he kindly shares on social media, his quality looks amazing.
