Description: CAR magazine was famous for panning Firestone tyres in a comparison test and thereby losing all of its Firestone tyre adverts. It was controversial and outspoken. This compilation contains some of the controversial articles and more, including articles by legendary motoring writers Laurence Pomeroy and L J K Setright, the astonishing Stirling Moss (before the knighthood) and more. Even the period advertisements are fascinating - you can see how little it cost to buy a classic car 30 or 40 years ago. It is a great read for any enthusiast and a wonderful nostalgia trip.
