Don't Stop Me Now

Jeremy Clarkson 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.
