I finished reading the Ben Collins book over the weekend. Not a bad read at all. More of a chronicle of a young guy who wants to race for a living and the things that pop up along the way. Certainly his Top Gear stint plays a role, but the book also includes his family, racing history, military service, stunt work on movies, etc.
Collins certainly didn't treat this as a Top Gear expose, the BBC's opinion not withstanding. It does however add some interesting insights to the episodes he was in.

Money can't buy happiness, but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Porsche than a Kia.
