This book is a truely original concept, a brilliant exploration of the symbiotic relationships between the stars and their cars.

It's all in here, the good, the bad and the ugly, reeking with anecdotes that encompass comedy, tragedy and the psychology of the owners, from the flamboyant to the cogniscenti.

Compelling personalities, legends of their Zeitgeist one and all. This is an invaluable encyclopaedia of knowledge for anyone intereseted in four wheels, two reels or icons of a bi-gone ear.

A must for all car enthusiasts and film buffs alike.
