Default Codename R40 Documentary Disc release

Just thought I would rejoin to proudly state that Codename R40 The Story of the 75 and MG ZT is now finished and on sale in DVD or Blu-Ray.

I’ve been beavering away with John Clancy for almost two years on this project. Needless to say, the end result is quite special in our opinion. Have to say We’ve both been knocked down and chuffed at the overwhelming response and support from all those, including you guys who stepped forward to contribute.

It just means it’s not got an SSL or padlock symbol on it. But it’s a genuine website administered by John Clancy the producer of the work.

Just done with watching all of it including extras...
A great piece of work indeed, and humbled to be featured in there as well ;-)
John and Mike certainly deserve major sales numbers on these given the time (and money) they've invested in this pet-project.
My own favorites are the bonus full length interviews of the project team led by Peter Morgan and the interview with Richard Woolley. The amount of information and bits shared by Peter Morgan in particular were really something.

So go buy this one gents... NOW !!
