A perfect stocking filler!!
...If you have a big rectangular stocking.
This is probably the finest book ever written, let's see what the critics said.
**"It's very nice dear" Mrs J Gibbs
**"One of your own books for my sodding birthday !! you tight get !!" Mrs M Fowler, nee Gibbs
**"what book??" David blunkett
**"I couldn't put it down" Mr Nichols, my vet
On the outside it's just a book about building a sports car but it's So much more!!!
You know that wobbly table you have? This book is EXACTLY the right thickness to fix that!
Having trouble with the noisy next door neighbours megawatt stereo? Buy 20,000 copies of this book and pile them against the party wall, Ah peace at
last!!
Are you embarrased by nasty 80's style placemats with pictures of "The Haywain" by John Constable on them? upgrade today to the
new "build your own Sports Car" table mats big enough for a man's plate and plenty absorbent!
If all else fails you only need a nail and the smallest room.
Astonish your friends, confound your enemies with the all fairly recent "Build your own Sports Car on a budget"
Hurry because stocks are strictly limited to the number that Haynes twenty massive printing plants throughout the world can churn out.
On a personal note I might not be on here as much as I usually am, I need an operation and I'm trying to save the money from the measley
royalties that I receive, I don't care so much for myself but my granny is quite likely to die sometime in the next thirty years and her dying
wish is to buy an Ultima and go to Disneyworld.
Also please bare in mind that somwewhere in the world a tiny, cute AND fluffy puppy is kicked over a tree into a pond, Johnny Wilkinson style
everytime someone passes a Halfords without buying this book, Do you really want that on your consience?
Available now in all good book shops (and most of the crappy ones)
Click
me!!!
Cheers
Chris
Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

I have my copy. It lives next to my toilet along with Iain Ayres' book.
I was going to enclose a photo but I couldn't be arsed.
Buy it though. Its great! It will move down to the garage when I make space to start my build.
Does anybody want to buy a large stuffed sea eagle grasping a fish? Its in a big glass case and makes a crap work bench!

Confused but excited.

How much do you want for it?(The eagle not the book, I've already got that). The budgie eats too much.
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

one leg of the coffee table is no longer on the rug, I could move it, but it might be easier just to buy that book.....

One of the legs on my coffee table is longer than the others, not shorter. Would you do a deal, 3 for the price of 2 ?

You really aught to write for VIZ comic!

I already have one of those books, and both its predecessors.
Its not a Viento Sized Car so its relegated to the bookshelf.
Now If I had about 7 more, I could turn it sideways and use them for a Book shelf end
EDIT....
Its Cheaper on Amazon.co.uk.

Do you get less royalties if its sold for less money?

1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Is the Viento the people carrier sized one?
Every time I see one I hear "The Dambusters theme" in my head for some reason
No, I get the same pittance where ever you buy it from - just buy it.
BTW having one copy is no reason not to buy another one, it's the gift that keeps on giving!!
