on cars 2 Aug 2011
Format:Paperback
this book is not just about cars. it also covers his experiences living in london e.g when he bought a bike to go the pub and about car stereo thieves.

this is one of best collective writings of his on par with 'born to be riled'. it really is, laugh a minute stuff.

the book is split into two parts, the first part are the columns that first appeared in 'performance car' the second part first appeared in the sunday times.

this is a 'must' read for any clarkson fan.

What He Does Best 24 Mar 2011
Format:Paperback
Well, when you pick up a Clarkson book, you know what to expect: quick wit, outspoken opinion and an altogether good read.

As well as being something of a TV personality, Clarkson made his name by thinking about a new way of writing about cars, rather than just the usual complaints or praises about a new car's handling and speed.

In this book, you get to see why he has made a name for himself in some of his funniest and most well written articles.

With some, you can tell that he was pushed for ideas, but in the vast majority of articles he makes you chuckle, ending with a strong and meaningful conclusion and quite often starting off with a completely different topic.

All things considered, this book is a condensed view of Clarkson's opinion on all different cars, ranging from Aston Martins to Ferraris, as well as his opinion on everything else.

If you're a car fan, you should enjoy this book.

I am not a petrol head, and I only watched Jeremy Clarkson's Top Gear program on television if there was really nothing else decent to watch. Then I started to get hooked on the program.

Jeremy Clarkson is really funny, and he writes in the same manner that he speaks. Only he could have written the books.

His book is hilarious, and gave me many giggles, chuckles and big belly laughs.

This book was so well written and funny, I've bought some of his other books, and will read all of them with the same pleasure.
Keep on writing Jeremy, reading your books is better than a tonic!

Some Funny Pieces...
It has some funny articles, though it could do with having the dates the articles were originally published (one of his later books has the publication dates).

Not as good as other Clarkson books
I was really disappointed with this book. The main reason is that these columns are set in the mid 80's / early 90's. Read more
