Product Description

Book Description

Top Gear meets Tomorrow's World in this homage to the wackiest cars of the last century

Product Description

From flying cars to amphibious vehicles, solar-powered saloons to rockets on wheels, these are over 50 of the most wacky cars ever devised. Fancy a car that drives sideways? Try the Jeep Hurricane. Or maybe a car in which the windows change colour according to your mood for a more serene and health-giving driving experience? That'll be the Toyota RiN. And if you like a flutter, you'll need the Chrysler Town and Country Black Jack, which contains a mini onboard casino.

Some concept cars are designed to demonstrate alternative materials and energy sources, or to showcase the gadgets of the future, or even cater for specific lifestyles or groups of people. Many don't even get beyond the prototype stage - for reasons of cost or practicality, or, in the case of the nuclear-powered Ford Nucleon of 1958, the danger of causing a small atomic explosion. Featuring everything from practical experiments such as the hatchback fire engine, and ideas that have managed to make it into production, to stunning yet impractical supercar concepts, this book both celebrates and cringes at some of motoring's most daft - and even idiotic - ideas.

Good unusual gift 6 Jan 2010

By Paul C. Senior

Format:Hardcover

I bought this book because I actually own one of the few Amphicars ever sold on the front cover. However there were many unusual cars listed in the book, some were older starting in 1938 whilst some were concept cars. Each page has a picture of the car and then one full page of text describing it's history and success or not ! A great coffee table book, but in my case one to add to my collection of Amphicar stuff !

Looking for something different 29 Dec 2009

By Cheryl Millar

Format:Hardcover

Got a man in your life that doesn't need to be shown all the cars he can't afford??
Well, I've got a dad like that, and was looking for something a bit more "creative" and this was ideal !! He loved it.
