I am thinking of buying this book. Anyone read it and have any thoughts on its usefulness/quality?

Hi Brian,

I bought it a few months ago. Its a high quality "coffee table"type book on our cars. It has very good pictures on all types (230, 250 & 280) and interesting text. It provides a clear overview of the model and is especially good to explain the Pagoda to those that may not be overly familiar with it.  For the price its quite good value.

cheers
