If you have a look at the FAQ page it says the series is expected to run to 100 issues.

I wonder if it comes with carpet. Be good to see some actual detail shots of it

Could it just be a test as Tomick hasn't mentioned it

I have been looking at this and called customer services and they
Have said that it should be in the shops now but can't seem to find the first
Issue as wasn't to see if it was much the same as the db5 before I look to order it
Any one know when it might be in store?
Cheers

Pity there's no 'definitive' news about this one.
The more I look at it, the more I'm tempted.....
But NOT if it might die after issue 5 or whatever.

I have alreafy took the plunge and subscribed last week when I read about it in the forum.Very interested but being a bit cautious, it has already show up on my subscription account as sent with the first two issues.This might be a tester because I have not been charged any money as yet. The first issue is free though. BigGrin

Just received my first two issues at the weekend, thought I would share with you what you get. If this goes the full 100 issues, I will be collecting a few issues first before I start my build.
