CARS OF KINGS
Wednesday, 09 March 2011 17:25

ProdKingsIt’s amazing how cars can be used as a barometer to highlight how cultures change. Looking at the classics that belonged to the rajas and maharajas of India not only highlights the unrivalled opulence of British coachwork carriages, but how the culture of this former colony has changed over the centuries.

This title is an account of 70 of the few hundred surviving models and the stories of the extraordinary people associated with them. Cars include a Talbot Lago, several Rolls-Royces and a Delahaye 175, owned at one time by Elton John.

Written by Gautam Sen, acknowledged as being the father of Indian automotive journalism, this hardback is well worth a read.
