If (like me) you are a lifelong fan of the Ford GT40, can I recommend you get the April copy of Motor Sport.
There is a brilliant article which looks at the heritage and compares the original with the latest GT.

Indeed, a great car but I have always felt it to be a shame that more credit wasn't given to Lola cars which, after all, is just what the GT40 basically is.
Here for a good time not a long time!!
