## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A bit lacking
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 May 2012*

Not bad little book by any means, but it contains very few "secrets", and mostly consists of descriptions of a handful of memorable episodes, peppered with a few shots that didn't appear on TV, and a few little bits about the show behind the scenes.. but very little of what I thought might be contained within - that is to say.. 'making of' those episodes. I have seen all the episodes, and remember them well, so I just hoped for a bit more than a warmed over re-telling of them. A bit of a shame, but still for the Top Gear fan, a solid,  if very short, book, that is definitely readable and will bring back memories of some of those classic moments.

### ⭐ 







  
  
    Don't bother with the Kindle version
  

*by T***U on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 September 2019*

Unless you are using a tablet this book is useless on a normal Kindle. It insists on you viewing it in landscape mode not as normal, and it looks like someone has just uploaded a PDF to Amazon, very poor quality indeed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    a little dissapointing
  

*by D***D on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 April 2013*

this book is written catering to those who buy in to the mythos of top gear. there is no background information as to how the stunts were set up, we are left with the impression that the presenters bumble along with no preparation and less clues as to what they are doing.Good if you want more edutainmentNot so good for the preparation and behind the scenes stuff
