‘An intriguing series of tales about love affairs with cars which, like human relationships, can go badly wrong.’ – Christian Wolmar, best-selling author of The Subterranean Railway and Fire & Steam

Three Million Miles in a Volvo and Other Curious Car Stories is a whistle-stop tour of fifty fascinating petrolheads and how they changed car culture for good

Meet: The Prince of Darkness! The Sweeney’s ace stunt driver! Renault’s doyenne of colours and fabrics!

Discover: A pathetic steam car! Metal underpants! The unseen brilliance of Jaguars!

And find out exactly how one man adored his Volvo so much that he drove it around the world 120 times to cruise into the record books.
