The Madness frontman said he was trying to get to the pub with pals.

"I was about 15 or 16 and we were trying to get to the pub.
"I couldn’t even legally drive.”
Asked what happened afterwards, Suggs — real name Graham McPherson — said: “The people who owned the car never spoke to me again.”
Driving In My Car, which includes the line “It’s not quite a Jaguar”, got to No4 in 1982.
