The Classic Car Adventure – Driving Through History on the Road to Nostalgia by Lance Cole – available now for £15.99.
This book is designed to be read as a companion, a book that can go in the car or on a ‘plane, and which can be read in full, or dipped into anywhere for a classic car fix. Old stories and new details are presented and cover all eras of our cars. Gathered here is a compilation of the author’s published and unpublished adventures and opinions about the design and the driving of some of the greatest cars in motoring history. From ‘vintagent’ to ‘modern classic’, pristine to oily-rag, up hill, down dale and across continents, award-winning motoring author, designer and serial classic car owner, Lance Cole, charts the great classic car enthusiasm in a series of engaging essays about cars, car design and the men that made the motor industry.
As reviewed by Classic Car Weekly: ‘Lance Cole is best known in motoring writing circles as a Saab enthusiast, so it is no surprise that a striking image of the UrSaab – the very first car built by the marque – is on the front cover of his new book. This collection of articles is about driving, design, in fact, pretty much anything about older cars from vintage to modern classics. You might not agree with all his opinions, but the text is witty, engaging, authoritative and comprehensive throughout. Buy it for the essays on the vehicles you know about, and learn much from the chapters on those that you don’t. Highly recommended.’ |
