About this listen

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.

Really enjoyed this book. Been following Edd China for years. This book its a great insight into his life as a gease junkie. Highly recommended. Would have liked to hear more about his work on Wheeler Dealers but maybe that's material for another book?

Brilliant

This book is 7 hours long, not a huge book but honestly if felt like less. So easy to listen too, it just flew by. So interesting in how he has lived his life and the misadventures he has had to bring him to the tv screen, just wonderful. Hope he has another idea for a follow up book, it will go straight on my wish list.

A pleasure to listen too
