It has a Clubman GT story. I just want to know what this story contains (pics and words).

I missed this one on ePay by $1 :roll:

yep, i've got it. i'll have a look tonight.
I have most (i think) gt articles from the early 70s, except one of the top tests ones - which may be a reprint anyway (it went for $70 on ebay!!!).
There is a series of wheels stories about a gt, and how the driver loved it over the years, and even a story about the new owner when it was then sold. He had a pet name for it too!
Maybe chris (czerial) or - anyone else - can post up a complete list so we know what is what.
cheers!
jon
