'Never crashed, restored or altered...'
Those words made me cream my pants!

I can't imagine what it must be like to use that car as a daily driver for 20 years! :shock: It's a great story. The car looks marvellous and it's hard to believe that it is all original. That man Wirz has now been added to my "hero list".

Thanks for the scan mate, never even heard of that mag before and I get most of them(EVO, CAR,autocar).
Is it a classic car mag or just exotica? Looks quality.
And the car, sensual curves, auto art for sure!
Great photos as well!
Do they have international subs mate? Sorry to be a pain!
Thanks again! :D

Not a pain at all.
Classic cars but they look at some incredibly tasty models and the photography is excellent.
I myself only discovered it for the first at Melbourne airport, flying overseas. I had trouble finding it in some parts of S.E.Asia, but I'm in Singapore now and it is available here (phew). I'm pretty certain they will post to Australia (after all money talks!). I'll definitely be subscribing to it when back home.

They have some good guest scribes (Stirling Moss, Rown Atkinson just left their fold but Jay Leno has replaced him!) and the feature articles have been good so far, covering both mainstream classics and also the not so well known ones.

Here is the cover.

p.s. those wondering where in the the world is Carmen Sandiego, sorry, the Merc Gullwing v Roadster comparo - it is on its way (hopefully tonight or tomorrow). There is also a very good read about Tim Dyke, a model car maestro.

edit:-
detsan, I'll pull out the current issue later tonight and check about subscription prices.
