... unfortunately this book is also out of print.  I managed to get
a copy from a used book specialist in Minnesota, but I think I got
his last copy ... 

There is a very similar book by Alan Henry ... sorry that I don't have
all the details on title and ISBN, etc.  That book may still be available.

It is interesting to hear the comments about the "Gold Portfolio" book.
All of the Brooklands GP books are like this (i.e. black & white copies
of magazine articles).  I am satisfied with the book because it has 
articles from primarily British mags that span quite a few years.  I
found good articles that included information from British Audi tuners.
I guess if you were looking for a coffee table book this is way off the 
mark ... get the Lewandowski Quattro Sport book for that ...
