Top Gear and Grand Tour legend James May's quirky, entertaining take on cars, trucks and even the bicycle - a perfect Christmas gift book for anyone obsessed with cars or anything else with wheels.

Why does a man with a Ferrari and a Porsche drive a Fiat Panda? Is going fast really necessary? Is it your fault if you get run over? Why will electric cars really save the planet (possibly)?

In Carbolics the UK's favourite petrol head (after Clarkson and Hammond) James May answers these questions and more.

Across 80 essays, James gives his quirky, entertaining take on cars, motorbikes, trucks - and explains why the bicycle might just be the best invention of all.

Written with James's characteristic wit and humour, Carbolics is the perfect Christmas gift for petrolheads.
