The Silver Ghost: A Supernatural Car
ISBN: 9781854432285 / Angielski / Twarda / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. To say that Jonathan Harley knows his subject inside out is no exaggeration; in the past four decades he has restored over one hundred Rolls-Royce Silver Ghosts, frequently resurrecting them from little more than a pile of scrap or a long-abandoned chassis. He knows every nut and bolt of these magnificent vehicles, an intimate knowledge that was put to good use in identifying, sometimes only by bolt design or the position of a hole in a crossmember, exactly which chassis he was working on, settling disputes over authenticity which had reverberated for years. But in this fascinating and...

The Myth of Japanese Efficiency: The World Car Industry in a Globalizing Age
ISBN: 9781845420413 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Combining case studies with accessible but rigorous production models and historical background, this provocative book challenges accepted views on Japanese production methods in the world car industry. The book argues that the 'lean and flexible' production model popularly associated with Toyota MC is a myth, but one which sheds light on cultural responses to the attendant stresses of globalization. To illustrate this, Dan Coffey provides individual studies of process flexibility, labour productivity and the re-organization of work in the global car industry.

Sustainable Transport Fuels Business Briefing explains, for a global business audience, the latest developments in the world of sustainable transport.

MERCEDES-BENZ, The 1960s, Volume 2: W100, W108, W109, W113
ISBN: 9781480237223 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Mercedes 300SEL 6.3 was a gamble, the 600 was at least for most European markets too big and flashy. The pagoda SL, launched at the same time as the 600, was an even bigger gamble. It had to replace not only the iconic 300SL, but also the more affordable 190SL. Only the W108 was not a gamble. It was the consequent evolution of a successful executive car that finally did away with the "one body fits all engines" philosophy. This 290-page book was last updated in Dec. 2016 and covers them all: the 600, pagoda SL and the W108/109 with six- and eight-cylinder engines. With it you will...
