For those of you who know Benson (Rover P5B) I am proud to say he is appearing on the front cover of the latest issue of practical Classics!

Actually it was a nice surprise because when they did the photoshoot they had earmarked the Daimler Dart for the cover photo and I only found out that Benson was on the cover when I wandered into WH Smiths today!

Benson looks excellent - lucky you were out of shot tho' smile

Does this mean Benson will now become a show queen with a couple of the magazines on the back seat one showing the front page the other open to his photo in the article and "DO NOT TOUCH" signs every where?

I can see more chrome and S/S bits being ordered biglaugh

Since the magazine has been published now, I guess it would be OK to share some of the Benson photo's from the shoot?

I will get a couple uploaded later today...
