Grease Junkie

A Book of Moving Parts

De: Edd China

Narrado por: Edd China

Random House presents the audiobook editon of Grease Junkie by Edd China.

'Think fast. Think big. Think the unthinkable!'

As you'll discover in his incomparable memoir, inventor, mechanic, TV presenter and walking tall as the definition of the British eccentric, Edd China sees things differently.

An unstoppable enthusiast from an early age, Edd had 35 ongoing car projects while he was at university, not counting the double-decker bus he was living in. Now he's a man with not only a runaround sofa, but also a road-legal office, shed, bed and bathroom. His first car was a more conventional 1303 Texas yellow Beetle, the start of an ongoing love affair with VW, even though it got him arrested for attempted armed robbery.

A human volcano of ideas and the ingenuity to make them happen, Edd is exhilarating company. Join him on his wild, wheeled adventures; see inside his engineering heroics; go behind the scenes on Wheeler Dealers.

Climb aboard his giant motorised shopping trolley, and let him take you into his parallel universe of possibility.

One of the great automotive geniuses of our time!

Every Edd China fan should read this book.
Beautiful story of a man who never took no for an answer. Thoroughly enjoyable start to finish.

Zen and the Art of Mechanical Tinkering

I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would. I didn't know about the Wheeler Dealers show but this popped up in my recommendation list and thought I would give it a go after listening to the sample. As a fellow nerd, I really enjoyed the sometimes lengthy segments about problem solving mechanical or concept issues. Have started looking at Edd's YouTube channel as a result and look forward to seeing many future projects.

A man, a legend

Great listen, i loved it! Great story, told by a great narrator. Edd, you rock! 🤘

Great fun for the car guy or gal

Really liked hearing Edd's stories. reminds me of a few automotive adventures I've had in the past

great biography for car lovers

If you love Edd, you'll love the book

It's a view into one of the most inspired minds in the automotive industry. I loved him on the show, but didn't realize the crazy history behind his persona.

brilliant i say!

The Mind of Organized Chaos

It was really enjoyable to list to Edds journey and how he handled different situations throughout his life.

Please apologize. This is crap.

What was I thinking? I thought I was going to be part of his experience with Wheeler Dealers and Top Gear. But all I heard was a cleaver guy that virtually makes the equivalent of a parade vehicle. I was expecting a guy talking about Porsche’s, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Corvette and other cars. Give Edd an award for all his cleaver vehicles. But seriously. Is this really enough to create a book after?
