  • Carte Blanche. £5. Tescos. I kid you not. I just bought a copy a few minutes ago. I assume it's a limited offer price and it will probably go up to around a tenner in a day or two so it might be worth grabbing a copy now.

  • Numbers 104 and 105 arrived today. Number 106 is going to be the Ford Consul from Dr No. I can't recall where it appears in that movie so I'm off to check.

  • Received issue 104 and 105 yesterday. I don't quite see the interest of the ZIL, but the Country Squire is a nice vehicle, even if, for this movie, I would have preferred the Koreans' Mercedes. I'm still waiting on those issues. What is advertised…
