Amen
He captures the moments that only other car nuts would appreciate.
Perfect example: Anyone remember the article about the first time he started the Jag engine after the rebuild? Only another car nut understands the anticipation and slight dread when you turn the ignition after months of work. Anyone else thinks, "well, it's SUPPOSED to start"... but Egan understands. HughR could speak to that, after all the work he's been doing on the DB4.
Peter Egan also captures the essence of roadtrips like no other writer.
