Top Gear Motor Mania: A Truckload of Trivia to Drive You Round the Bend

by Ivan Berg, Nik Berg

This is a car book like no other—packed with amazing accounts, fascinating facts, and spectacular stats. A must for any car nut. Did you know that Jasons and Tracys crash more cars than Jacquelines and Damons? Or that a boomerang can be used to repair a worn-out clutch? Have you ever wanted to visit a naked car show, wondered what it's like to drive on the world's most dangerous road, or receive the most expensive speeding ticket of all time? Want to read about flying cars, amphibious cars, or atomic cars? What about the Accord that can actually strike a chord, or the "love parking lot?" Dip inside to find all these plus loads of other stuff, including cars in film, cars on TV, cars in songs—even cars as coffins!

Very book enjoyed it very much recommend to read it

[Kevin de Ataíde · Rating 2 out of 5]

I'm not terribly impressed with this book. I got it because of the Top Gear branding, but it doesn't have the same feel as the show/magazine and is rather tedious and searching too hard for humour. You can't be rated too high, anyway, when you begin with sex and mobile toilets. Two stars.
