Blurb of the book about Ford Cosworth DFV in Formula 1

From 1967 to 1983, the Ford Cosworth DFV engine reigned supreme in Formula 1, powering cars to 13 Drivers’ Championships in just 16 seasons. Grand Prix Ford dives deep into the remarkable story of this revolutionary engine and the powerful partnership between Lotus, Ford, and Cosworth that brought it to life.

Written by the late Graham Robson — one of the UK’s most respected motorsport historians — and inspired by a concept by fellow historian Anthony Pritchard, this book captures the DFV’s dominance with clarity and authority. It’s not just about engines: it’s about the people, the teams, the victories, and the evolution of a motorsport legend.

Tracks the DFV’s development from Lotus’s exclusive use in 1967 to widespread dominance across teams like McLaren, Matra, and Williams.
Includes technical insight into engine design, performance advances, and the role of specialist rebuilders.
Analyzes rivalries and resistance from Ferrari and others — and why they couldn’t hold back DFV-powered teams.
Explores the DFV’s legacy through its turbocharged and evolved descendants: DFX, DFY, DFZ, and DFR.
Features over 300 rare and archival images, many from Ford’s own historical archives.

For any reader passionate about motorsport history, Grand Prix Ford is the definitive tribute to the engine that powered a golden era. Get under the hood of Formula 1’s most iconic breakthrough.

Ford boeken over de auto’s en het automerk

De van oorsprong Amerikaanse autofabrikant Ford is opgericht door de op 30 juli 1963 in Wayne County, Michigan, Verenigde Staten geboren Henri Ford. Hij startte in 1899 samen met een aantal investeerders Detroit Automobile Company dat al 1900 later failliet ging. Op 16 juni 1903 richtten Henry Ford en elf investeerders in Michigan de Ford Motor Company op. Het eerste model dat de fabriek in Detroit produceerde was de Ford Model A waarvan tussen 1903 en 1905 ruim 1700 auto’s werden geproduceerd. Op 1 oktober 1908 werd de Ford Model T wat de succesvolste auto tot op dat moment zou worden en waarvan er tot in 1927 in totaal zo’n 15 miljoen exemplaren werden gebouwd. Het was de eerste auto voor de ‘gewone man’ omdat deze aan de lopende band tegen lage kosten kon worden gebouwd. Tot op de dag van vandaag is Ford een van de bekendste automerken ter wereld.

Blurb of the book on the Lotus Europa written by Matthew Vale

The Lotus Europa was Colin Chapman and Lotus’ first mid-engined road car, and was produced from 1966 through to 1975. Originally designed to slot into the Lotus range below the Elan as a low cost replacement for the Lotus 7, the Europa eventually sat alongside the Elan and Plus 2 as a comparable sports car in its own right.

Starting with the design philosophy behind the development of the Europa, this book provides detailed technical descriptions of all the major versions of the model, starting with the Renault-powered Series 1 through to the Lotus Twin Cam powered Special. It looks at the cars on the road, and the racing Type 47 derived from the road cars which competed in the small capacity Group 6 class, as well as featuring in historic racing today.

With owners’ impressions and interviews with ex-Lotus employees, the book provides a valuable insight into owning, running, and racing these iconic cars.

Matthew Vale has been writing books on classic British motorcycles and cars since 2004. Now retired from day-to-day work in the IT industry, in which he was a Chartered IT professional specialising in computer security, he now devotes his free time to classic car and bike restoration, writing classic motoring books and articles, and spending time with his wife and family. In the past he has run such diverse classic cars as a Triumph Spitfire Mark III, MGB,Triumph Stag and a Lotus Elite, as well as restoring and riding classic bikes including the Triumph Bonneville, Norton Commando and BSA Lightning.

Blurb of the book on the Mercedes-Benz AMG Cars

From small-time tuner to global automotive legend – this is the ultimate guide to the Mercedes-AMG story.

Explore the thrilling history of AMG, the performance brand that transformed Mercedes-Benz from a symbol of refined luxury into a fierce motorsport competitor and producer of some of the most desirable performance vehicles on the planet. Written by renowned automotive historian Brian Long, Mercedes-Benz: The AMG Cars charts the full journey from the brand’s unofficial beginnings to its modern-day status as an icon of high-performance engineering.

Discover how two ex-Mercedes engineers, Hans-Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher, began handcrafting race engines in a garage, and how their tiny operation became a global performance powerhouse. With deep dives into key models like the AMG Hammer, groundbreaking moments in DTM and Group C racing, and the official tie-up with Mercedes-Benz that reshaped the brand’s future, this is a comprehensive year-by-year chronicle of a unique automotive evolution.

The book covers:

The full story of AMG’s independent era and its 1990s transition into official Mercedes-Benz partnership
All production AMG models from 1993 to 2024, presented in chronological chapters
Legendary engines, tuning techniques, and motorsport triumphs
Rare and obscure models alongside the most celebrated icons
Hundreds of colour images, advertisements, and catalogue shots (over 660 visuals)

With expert insights, rare images, and rich historical detail, this book is essential reading for Mercedes fans, collectors, and motoring enthusiasts alike.

Get ready to experience the full-throttle story of the three-letter badge that changed Mercedes-Benz forever.
