Win car books from Top Gear’s James May!

TV presenter, car fanatic and so-called “Captain Slow”, James May, has published his best articles in one new paperback, and we have ten copies to give away!

Our lucky winners will each receive a copy of Mr May’s latest book, “Notes from the Hard Shoulder”, which humorously covers such wide-ranging topics as driving overseas and haunted car parks.

“I’m glad you’re thinking of buying this book. But not half as glad as I’d be if you’d put it back on the shelf and buy one of mine instead”, said Jeremy Clarkson.

Best known as one third of the Top Gear trio, James May has lived, breathed and dreamt about cars his entire life. He has written about them over several years in a large number of periodicals. “Notes from the Hard Shoulder” is a stylish collection of James May’s most controversial and humorous writing.

“Notes from the Hard Shoulder” is on sale now from Virgin Books, priced, £7.99, but NEW CAR NET has ten copies to give away to lucky winners.

So don’t be a Captain Slow, get a wriggle on and enter the competition. Good luck..

For a chance to win, simply answer the following question and then fill in your details:

In the spirit of “Captain Slow”, which of these cars takes longest to reach 62mph?

1: Aston Martin V8 Vantage :D
2: Ferrari 599 GTB
3: Lamborghini Gallardo
