Finally... Octane magazine ges it...
« on: September 21, 2019, 10:07:30 »
Octane 197 (“November” has a long/ cover piece on our cars.


I’m about to read it but some lovely pictures of a red 280

Different picture to the hard copy cover I have.
From what I've read, few of us will learn much
There's a bit on a restored car featuring a car that a certain Welsh restorer has worked on that might well be an advertorial...

Might be nice to add to my collection, if I can find a newsstand in which to buy one!

Mike, ask someone in the UK that goes to PagodaFest to get one for you, i’ll Drop it off at your place on my return.

:) or i’ll Post it to you. Unless you order one and have them post it. I fear the UK postage might just be the price of 2 magazines like it would be in Canada. It goes without saying that I would post it from the US before crossing the border, I fear the border control would charge me something, who knows how they feel when I cross.
