It tells you lots of facts about car s and how they are made.My favourite thing is that it show you you every thing inside a car. Recommend it to people who love cars and want to know a lot about them.

Tells you how to make petrol, build an engine, make an oil well to get enough money to get a Bugatti Veyron (a bit funny!)

I LOVED this book. It taught me about how petrol is made and about aerodynamics. The speed of the car depends on the shape. If you like science like me, this is the book for you. In fact I wish there was a infinite stars options as that is what I would rank this book.
