FROM MY REVIEWS IN THE 356 REGISTRY:
Chris Harvey, who single handedly has placed more misinformation in the last 5 years than all else did in the preceding 30, again has out a new book: GREAT MARQUES POSTER BOOK, another English/Hong Kong soft quickie. This time it consists of individual color photographs of Porsche (a red 550, a black Speedster, we have seen in other efforts, a lovely silver A Coupe, a red T-5 Cabriolet, and a red
C Carrera 2) with the usual error filled history on the back of each page. As usual it is a collection of nice cars belonging to Mr. Harvey's 5 English friends. GREAT MARQUES POSTER BOOK may be hard
to find at your bookstore, but might possibly be findable at your local grocery store. I think it costs about $10.00. Chris Harvey featured a similar, but I think not identical, silver A Coupe in the December issue of CAR magazine -- a monthly magazine I recommend along with its stablemate, the quarterly SUPERCAR
CLASSICS to everyone. Unfortunately, the comments about the A may have reflected more the nuances of age of the restoration than how they originally were. It's probably a little unfair to criticize the recovered seats of a 26 year old car for not gripping tightly enough. Further he claimed that the car did not feel modern. One of the things that has always struck me is how current 356s feel - especially compared with English cars. Even try a 230SL -- it feels very old and truck-like. Of course this comes from someone who routinely drives a 20+ year old Porsche around. However, it's been a long time since I have seen a several page road test on an A. CAR is widely distributed over here and shouldn't be difficult to find. SUPERCAR has run several Porsche issues and it usually devotes almost as much paper to old cars as current.

Having written many years ago that Chris Harvey subtracted from the sum total of Porsche knowlege every time he put type to paper, you might think I have mellowed since his death -- you would be wrong. In general poorly researched books -- which may be why I still have some in stock.
