Planet Dagenham: Cars in Film, TV, Music and Sport

by JeremyClarkson (Author)

Synopsis

"Planet Dagenham" is a collection of Jeremy Clarkson's thoughts, opinions and observations on cars, their owners and the world in which we drive them. Hilarious, shocking and revelatory (honest), this book is the final word on drivestyles of the rich and famous. Divided into four chapters: cars on films; cars in music & modelling; cars in television; and cars in sport, "Planet Dagenham" addresses some pretty fundamental questions such as: Why are all film car chases wrong? Why don't supermodels drive? And what is the greatest TV car of them all? Packed full of car trivia, such as the top ten rock n' roll automobile accidents, and Clarkson's own Top 20 drives, "Planet Dagenham" is a treasure-trove of anecdotes and information for boys of all ages. It is now published under the Carlton imprint, and is in paperback for the first time.

Not only is it hilarious, but its broad subject is packed with loads of facts you never knew. A fantastically illustrated, compulsively readable, speedy and glamorous car chase through history's most meaningful motors' - Classic & Sports Car
