It was an M400. Part of a collection of cars that Autocar had on track as part of our handling day. I'm sunburnt and knackered but apart from that it's been a great day.

Was me and our M400 press demonstrator. Wait to see the results in Autocar later this month - have been told that it's the issue that comes out on the 29th June, but Stuart may know otherwise?

It won't be the end of June. Publication date TBA.

the walls have ears you know

A pleasure as ever Micknall. Somehow I managed not to drive the M400 yesterday - maybe I'll have to conduct some spurious reason to book your press demonstrator in over the next couple of weeks. I don't live anywhere near Streatham High Road anymore so you might get lucky...

Must have been in disguise, as no M400 branding when I saw it!!!

It had black wheels and the air scoop, but (thankfully) not the airfix decals on the side.

Ah - but it it seemed to be in a "Thunderbirds" typeface, so will it actually be "retro" after the film????

Daz,

We don't have a publication date for this feature at present.
