Motoring Literature

[Cudwieser]

Please recommend and/or review some motoring literature. It can be anything mechanical and vehicular, be it a Haynes manual on a 72 Beetle to a picture book on Diggers and Dumpers. Any book you've read and enjoyed can be recommended and/or reviewed here. Don't feel oblieged to write a review, a recommendation is enough, but a review (explanation) would be nice

 

To start

 

500 Fantastic Cars by Haynes PublishingSerge Bellu (Haynes Publishing)

A very light read, good for killing a couple of hours and referencial checking on changes of concepts and style through out the years. a bit out dated now, but still relevant to whay we currently see.

I got this book for like $7 usd at Barnes and Noble and it was pretty good. Interesting list, some you'll agree with others you may not but good automotive themed coffee table book in my opinion.

 

The World's Worst Cars

Good shout.

 

Here is a book by Stephen Volkens that runs a similar vein, Another coffee table book
