Hey Tony.
I think that is actualy the infamous 'SPY Photos' edition. Photos of the FE on the production line before it was released.
It's a great cover.
Regards
Alex

Hi Alex
That's the one.
From the editorial:
" You may have wondered how we got these photos. We can't tell you how, but we will tell you why."

It goes on to say how Holden wouldn't come to the party with giving them  pix or info prior to the actual release. Modern Motor wanted to be the first to break the story, so they took the matter into their own hands.

"We had to get it, and we did."

Cheers
Tony
