Jeremy Clarkson - number one bestseller, presenter of Top Gear and, easily, the most opinionated person ever to sit behind the wheel of a car - puts the pedal to the floor in Don't Stop Me Now a collection of his Sunday Times motoring journalism.
There's more to life than cars. Jeremy Clarkson knows this. There is, after all, a whole world out there just waiting to be discovered. So, before he gets on to torque steer and active suspension, he takes time out to consider:
• The madness of Galapagos tortoises
• The similarities between Jeremy Paxman and AC/DC's bass guitarist
• The problems and perils of being English
• God's dumbest creation
Then there are the cars: whether it's the poxiest little runabout or an exotic, firebreathing supercar, no one does cars like Clarkson. Unmoved by mechanics' claims and unimpressed by press junkets, he approaches anything on four wheels without fear or favour. What emerges from the ashes is rarely pretty. But always very, very funny.
Number-one bestseller Jeremy Clarkson writes on cars, current affairs and anything else that annoys him in his sharp and funny collections. Driven to Distraction, Motorworld, Clarkson On Cars, I Know You Got Soul and Round the Bend are also available as Penguin paperbacks; the Penguin App iClarkson: The Book of Cars can be downloaded on the App Store. His The World According to Clarkson series has sold over three million copies in the UK and places Clarkson frequently at the top of best seller lists.
