For the Race Historian

Just a short walk from St Martins Models, the famous Motor Books shop is an Aladdin’s cave for the keen motoring enthusiast. Among many rare titles is a signed copy of the book that lists every single event entered by Britain’s greatest living racing driver, Sir Stirling Moss.

Between 1947 and 1962 (when his life so nearly ended at Goodwood) Moss competed in 529 events. These varied from driving at Le Mans, the Nürburgring and Monaco – right through to the odd hillclimb, rally or sprint in a distant corner of the English countryside.

Every single one is recorded in this stunning book, with the added bonus of Sir Stirling's signature.

With its countless small shops and boutiques, London is an ideal venue for Christmas shopping: but where can you find the really special and unusual gifts? Classic Driver is out and about in the Capital, and will be suggesting a new gift idea every day.
