From the chain-driven Frazer Nash of the 1920s to the turbocharged Porsche of today, the story of AFN, the Aldington brothers, their friends and their impact on the motor industry and motor sport is vividly brought to life in this enthralling and authoritative book. Written by a motoring journalist who needs no introduction, it traces how a British manufacturer became, prewar, the importer for BMW and, immediately postwar, was a catalyst in the re-birth of BMW and the birth of Bristol. Aston Martin, Invicta, DKW and Armstrong Siddeley are other marques to feature in the AFN story prior to their total Porsche involvement. With its wealth of unpublished information, anecdotes and photographs, the book is a unique contribution to the history of the British car industry which will appeal to all who appreciate the world of performance motoring.
