Aha! Already ordered this. I'll let you know what it's like when it arrives which should be soon as they reckon they have it in stock already.

The last book I bought by Veloce publishing fell apart almost immediately and is now laminated and in a ring binder! Rubbish binding! :shock:

Lets hope they've changed their glue by now :lol:

My copy has just arrived :mrgreen: Initial impressions are very good with lots of colour pics, some of which I havent seen before. Would agree with Si's comment tho regarding the binding. Looks like care will be needed to keep it in one piece.

Would make a good Christmas present for any GT-Four enthusiast.

The majority of pics show the TTE Group A rally cars in action ST165, ST185 and ST205 :D There are a few engine bay views but if you are after detailed pics of the TTE cars engineering there are quite a few on this forum and also www.gtfours.co.uk

Mines here too! Lots of great pics and an enjoyable read as long as you don't expect anything very technical! probably the most 165 pics I've seen anywhere in a long time which is nice as they do tend to get forgotten a bit.

The binding is about what I expected so will have to treat kindly :roll:
:D
