The Bluffer's Guide to Cars (Bluffer's Guides) - Softcover

'If universities offered courses in cars, Martin Gurdon would be the Regius Professor at a delightfully eccentric Oxbridge college. Enlightening and funny, yet savagely critical and perceptive.'--Jon Bentley "The Gadget Show Presenter "

'Martin enjoys writing about cars more than driving them, so fully appreciates that you won't be remotely interested unless he can make cars interesting, supply you with surprising facts with which to win a pub quiz, or even snippets to recount over the dinner table without driving your fellow diners to drink.'--Honest John "Motoring Agony Uncle, THE DAILY TELEGRAPH "

'Martin Gurdon's excellent little book, The Bluffer's Guide to Cars, is misnamed. It purports to help those with zero car knowledge never to confuse their trunnions with their gudgeon pins, but it is actually packed with so many obscure factoids and amusing tales that even the most car-literate person will learn and be amused.'--Steve Cropley "Editor-in-Chief, AUTOCAR "

'Entertaining, witty and knowledgeably written. A must-read for anyone with even a passing interest in cars... or perhaps just those wishing to pretend.'--David Williams "Motoring Correspondent, THE EVENING STANDARD "

'Martin's knowledge of cars is both extensive and peculiar - nobody knows so much weird stuff. This is a must-read book for anyone who claims to be a car expert and is guaranteed to keep you smiling over every page.'--Quentin Willson "TV Presenter and Motoring Expert "

From station wagons to hatchbacks, and from Cadillacs to Pontiacs, 'The Bluffer's Guide to Cars' provides everything you need to know to get your conversation into gear.
