Scan or ban!

"... on the smiles-per-mile charts, the 1-series M coupe can't be beat. It is a challenging piece, a triple-X-rated driver's machine for semi-professionals. Its handling balance provides an open invitation to indulge in latent oversteer, and provides an opportunity to separate the men from the boys. It is an absolute hoot on the track and an addictive plaything on your favorite twisty back road. "

When did you place your order?
The only reason I ask is that I have not been given a production date

Thanks das68, bought my copy today. Last one on the shelf in the second newsagent I went into. Prefer to have hard copies of them.
