Now available in paperback, here is an illustrated collection of 250 cars that vary wildly from the norm - cars that are instantly memorable for a variety of reasons. These cars, of all ages and types, reflect the personalities of those keen enough to court controversy by designing, making or owning them - people who want to make a statement by being different and individual. Many of the cars featured are undoubtedly objects of desire, or in the case of a few unfortunate examples, of ridicule, but they all stand out from the crowd and each one can lay proud claim to its status as an extreme car.
Stephen Vokins has worked at the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu, for 25 years, latterly as a manager of the film and video department. His spare time is devoted to writing and broadcasting about cars.
Large format, expertly written and packed with fun, facts and follies. Eleven themed chapters, providing descriptions and photographs of some of the fastest, the most extravagant, the daftest, the most stunning, the thirstiest, the worst and the most brilliant cars ever produced. The extravagance of the Bentley Azure, Maybach 62, Voisin V12 and Zimmer Golden Spirit. The speed of the Ferrari Enzo, Mercedes McLaren SLR, Pagine Zonda C12 and Zrod. The aesthetic beauty of the Clenet, Ferrari 250 GTO, Mentley Insanne and Venturi Fetish. The plain daftness of the Badsey Bullet, JAK Dzik, Renault Zoom and Runaground.
