Inside the January issue we step into the shoes of Bodie and Doyle, as wedrive the Ford Capri Mk3 3.0Ss used in The Professionals. These cars just set an auction-house record for Capris, so we tell their on-set stories. We also meet Geoff Roberts, the real-life Professional who chased down criminals from behind the wheel of a police Capri.

We also drive the Ferrari SP3 Daytona to see if it has a right to claim the name, discover the origins of Ralliart in a Group A Mitsubishi Starion rally car, reveal the restoration tribulations of the unique Guyson E12, put a film-buff reader in a Roger Moore-style Lamborghini Islero, tell the life story of a very well-travelled Mercedes CLK and show you how to buy a VW Karmann-Ghia

All that, plus our ever-entertaining columnists Quentin Willson and Alex Riley, market news and event highlights, the monthly highs and lows of our own classics, four cars for sale tested and more, make the January issue unmissable.
