Phew...there were dozens of names left!
That was fun...I really would like to know a place were those rarities are featured...book or magazine.

I don't believe the Arien has ever been seen before in any publication - print or internet.

The idea of a book about specials and one-offs is a great one, but it might be a hard sell to the public. There was once a magazine called Specials in the 1980s devoted to one-offs but, er, it turned out to be a one-off too!

It wasn't by Chris Rees was it?! Or maybe Peter Filby..?

I love all his publications - they are always witty and entertaining.
Even his titling is entertaining, such as producing a volume 2 when there is no such thing as a volume 1...!
I know you know him well having co-written with him, as indeed I do as he's featured my car in his latest TVR tomes..
