I don't know.  I'll get in touch with the membership secretary and treasurer, 
and we'll work out a price.

No, but it seems a sensible idea.  Our next committee meeting is in October.

Why not?  There's quite a lot of material floating around here, albeit in 
hardcopy form.  We also have some members (e.g., David Sutton) who have 
impressive collections of hardware.  Michele Mouton drove David's "Pikes Peak" 
replica to a new course record at Goodwood a few weeks ago.  The Club is quite 
active - we had a 60' x 40' marquee at Silverstone two weekends ago, with a 
selection of rally-winning quattros.  Audi lent us their World Championship A4Q 
for four days - I was surprised to find it in full race trim when it arrived.
