You Must Be Skidding! by Tony DavisRandom House Australia
Who thought it was a good idea to call a car Gremlin, or Cedric, or Touring Bruce? Which will fly first: the Moller Skycar or the pig? Hear about the floating car that sank? Hear about the show car so ugly the company had to promise they'd never build another that looked anything like it? And then there was the fridge company that decided to make a car.
