This book is the distillation of many years experience of working with Weber carburetors   These celebrated carburetors have been fitted to some of the most exciting and memorable cars and have been more widely used by tuners and modifiers, both for road and competition machinery, than any alternative.  The mysteries of why and how they work so well and the practicalities of getting the best from them in any application are explained at length.  Setting the carburetor to suit a particular engine, fault-finding on an existing installation, and the maintenance and repair of older carburetors are all topics which receive detailed attention.  Anyone maintaining or restoring a classic Weber-equipped car, or contemplating a Weber-based conversion, or simply interested in the science of engine performance and tuning, will learn something from these pages.

The S2000 was full of the advanced thinking that had typified Honda's early years.  With a top speed of 150mph, it was comparable to the Porsche Boxster and the BMW Z3.  Handling was racecar-like in its precision - the S2000 was everything that buyers would have expected a new generation Honda sports roadster to be.

Maseratis are true luxury cars that will always remain exclusive because of their very nature and that is the way it should be.  After some years in the doldrums Maserati is back with a vengeance and the resurgence began in 1998 with the 3200 GT coupe.  Today's range is, for the performance connoisseur, nigh on perfect with the beautifully styled 4200 GT complete with a drop-top version and for the family there is the gorgeous Quattroporte.  Few marques have put the word "Grand" into Grand Touring the way that Maserati has. 

The M3 is based on the prosaic 3 Series family sedan and has 'redefined' the term 'sports saloon'.  There were several iterations of the M3 including two EVO versions and a convertible, but BMW shocked the world with the release of the E36 M3 in 1993. It had a new engine with a maximum speed electronically limited to 155mph.  Not only was the new M3 quick but the international media was full of praise for the Germany hotrod.  Everybody who was anybody simply had to be seen in one.  In 2000, BMW released the E46 M3 which was a much more refined car to drive.  The E46 M3 was a simply brilliant package that had absolutely no peers unless you considered the true exoticars.  It was a genuine sales success all over the world.
