  For 100 years the car has been man's best friend and never has the bond been stronger; man's obsession with the car is unshakeable as evidenced by the numbers of new car magazines, car shows and the perennial popularity of the BBC's Top Gear television programme, which has recently lent its name to a new magazine and motoring show. In recognition of the market's fertility, Guinness has revamped one of its best-sellers and produced a 4th edition of this popular and extensive book of facts, feats, statistics and anecdotes. The Guinness Book of Car Facts & Feats is a useful source of reference, giving comprehensive information on all aspects of motoring and the car, from a chronological history of motor sport to everyday motoring. Innovations in production, materials and processes, milestones in motoring, great successes and great flops are all recorded, along with profiles of many outstanding motoring personalities - industrialists, designers, racing and rally drivers.
