Worthy: M W-W on the trail of a Swallow Dor-etti, a 1899 Gaillardet, an obscure six-cylinder monster from down under, and a French CGV among other topics.
Blockbuster BRM: BRM's 1970 Can Am challenger, the P154, was, as Doug Nye recalls, uncompetitive and unreliable when new, but 13 years on, Willie Green found the sole survivor belonging to Mike Wheatley, to be everything the original should have been. His report is on page.
Osca winner: Remember the pretty OSCA-Fiats of the early sixties? Jonathan Edwards tracked down one of these Pininfarina-styled twin cam cabriolets -- and came back impressed.
Two-way stretch: What does an Elan driver do when the family begins to grow up? Answer --move up to the roomier Elan Plus 2. Peter Nunn looks at the pros and cons of this sleek 2 .

Bijou baby: Dwindling sales of the inimitable 2CV during the late fifties inspired Citroen UK to make prettier, more stylish Deux Chevaux, called the Bijou, Peter Nunn tells the story.
Bull-Fighting!: Miura: full bore supercar or Kings' Road poseur? Mike McCarthy takes to the highway in Lamborghini's 385bhp SV, to settle the argument once and for all.
GNashing: John Bolster on the joys of driving a GN cyclecar, in particular Charmian Skinner's delightful example of the marque.
Mid-field middleweights: When new, Sunbeam's Rapier faced up to the Riley 1.5 as a direct competitor on both road and track. Mike McCarthy and Peter Nunn have been out and about to discover whether the two are still deadly rivals today.
Blydenstein on Borgward: Mention the word `Blydenstein' and one immediately thinks of DTV and of Bill's many achievements with Gerry Marshall's track racers. But in the early sixties, Bill Blydenstein was, in fact, winning races himself, behind the wheel of his rapid Borgward Isabella.
