And a lens next Christmas, eh? :wink: :) :lol: It's been quite an expensive Christmas as I also bought the 35mm and 90mm Summicron lenses to go with it! I'd also quite like the 16, 18, 21mm Tri-Elmar, but that might have to wait until next Christmas! As for the D-LUX 4; Jacobs have it in stock for ...

If you're not into photography then I'd consider getting a Canon S90 instead - an excellent large sensor compact with a high quality lens and manual controls. I have one and am very pleased with it.

I enquired about the car when it was recently for sale and the whole of the front end is apparently fibreglass.

Roy,

Thanks for the info! Is there any chance someone could email me the scanned article so that I could have a brief look?

Roy,

Thanks for that - I hope he does reply as I'm quite curious about the car and am tempted to do something similar as a fun project.
