Book Description
When Danny Crankshaft’s inventor parents build him a racing car for his seventh birthday, he doesn’t realise how much it will change his life. Because Monty is more than your average car. Not only does he run on chocolate milkshake instead of petrol, he can actually talk by revving his engine. But when Danny and Monty enter the Tooting Wallop Cup, they find themselves up against Hugo de Horrible – the nastiest man in town. Can Monty win the cup, or will Hugo’s cheating ways let him lift the prize?
