Good article, reasonable balance, interesting comments on the Mk2 as being the "best".

This won't have done the cars any harm at all.

Andrew if you read this, thankyou.

Well no sign of a complimentary copy so went out and bought Classic Monthly mag.
Not a bad review and nice pictures.
Not sure why the article mentions the Vac gauge as standard Jubilee equipment or the flared arches but the rest seems good. :?

Classic Monthly Magazine - I've tried two supermarkets and 3 paper shops with no luck, so I'm jealous of you that have a copy.

Hi Brian (Dad)!!
Do they have magazines up there :P
My local Big Tesco has them and WHSmith!
Just had a call from the journalist and I think I may have a free copy on its way :D
What a nice chap :wink:

Hi Paul,

My complimentary copy was promised by Andrew, the journalist, but didn't appear. I got mine by contacting the magazine directly. They were happy to oblige.
Just call the Bath telephone number (01225 442244) on page 3 of the magazine and tell them who you are, I'm sure they will send you a copy free of charge. Don't leave it too long though, I waited until near the end of the month and was lucky they managed to find a spare copy!

Good luck, Dave.

Telegraph Marina article

Well looks like Andrew Roberts is keeping busy but where did they get that shot of a strange Marina from?
TC?
Split front bumper?
GT6 wheels?
T Reg?

PS. Where is my complimentary Magazine Andrew? (I know you pop on here occasionally)

Hi Paul,

That 'strange' Marina belongs to Nick Redman, from Bristol. It's a 'modified' mk2 saloon.
