The Car Book

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Conceived as an alternative to the 'bubble cars' popular in the 1950s, Alec Issigonis' revolutionary Mini established the pattern for the modern car with its front-wheel drive and transverse engine. This history of more than a century of evolution includes illustrated features exploring mileposts in car design and engine development as well as profiling the great marques and presenting over a thousand colour images of important cars, from Daimler's first petrol-engined vehicle of 1886 to modern hybrids.
