IN 007th GEAR – Catching Jason Barlow’s BOND CARS: THE IN 007th GEAR – Catching Jason Barlow’s BOND CARS: THE

With a tome whose own production echoes the sleek lines and design choices of seven decades of automobile artistry, Bond Cars also manages to be an informed look at the pop culture status of cinema alongside the hold of car culture – whilst providing fresh testament to the staggering scale, personalities, organisation and scope of the Bond production juggernaut. It is a forensic look at the attitude of 007’s wheels, the curious timeline of the 20th century automobile and the literal and artistic momentum Bond and his cars lend each other. Instead, it lifts the bonnet quite brilliantly and with non-petrol head ease on a detailed, heavily researched and insightful cruise through the real metallic history and character of Bond’s vehicular co-stars and their asphalted road to movie immortality. Jason Barlow is a journalist and broadcaster who has driven every significant new car - and lots of old ones - in his 25-year career. Currently editor-at-large for BBC TopGear, and a long-standing contributing editor to British GQ, Barlow has also written for The Times, the Guardian, and the Daily Telegraph. He has presented numerous television shows on cars and popular culture for the BBC, ITV, Sky, and the Discovery Channel. He lives in rural Essex, where the roads are very good indeed.
