Occasionally a used copy shows up on ebay for less... but you'll get the one from Amazon faster.
You've waited this long.. what's another couple of weeks? :wink:

But just so you know, I've also ordered a copy on Amazon... initially, there was a three week wait before the book was dispatched... but after waiting three weeks, I got an email saying that my dispatch date was delayed by another 3 weeks... I'm still waiting... ~_~

oh seriuos? :nono: thats naughty of amazon, luckily i just bought a book on ebay for £40, the item went over £40 but as i was the second highest bidder at £40 he gave me a second chance offer, so i should get my driving ambition book tomorow, i was originally going to do it through amazon but i didnt want to wait 3 weeks (it now sounds even longer) so i cancelled my order with amazon and they didnt debit my account, if your interested i can give you the guy's email see if he had any more of the driving ambition books (which are new and include the poster), just send me a message or reply if your interested, thanks

Thanks, I appreciate the offer, but since I've waited this long, mind as well wait out the remaining week or so...
oh, and for those who are interested, another option would be thru McLarenautomotive.com... for £45, but they charge an arm and a leg for shipping... they did for me at least... hence I decided to go with Amazon, despite the wait...

My god a driving ambition for £9.99 GBP (pounds not euros) thats cheap i wish i picked my copy for that price, but there are some ridiculuos prices on amazon.co.uk as well for driving ambitions, but im thinking some of them could be the limited edition versions maybe? but highly unlikely.

Thanks for your help. I searched David's bookshop on the web as wrItten o the receipt attaced on the book, but they requiring 60euro.
http://davidsonlineshop.tbpcontrol.co.uk/tbp.web/customeraccesscontrol/home.aspx?d=davidsonlineshop&s=C&r=10000099
Hoping there are difference in version between the DA they saying and the DA you bought because i am willing to buy 3 copies of that if the price were 9.9euro as you said. Are they providing the service of sending abroad becasue i live in Korea. After your confirm, would like to take action.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Lee,
The copy I purchased was slightly marked, as I stated in my previous thread. I only saw this copy on the shelf, marked down to this price so I snapped it up. It sometimes pays to visit your local book shops, as they sell books cheaper at the end of print run out! and also shop soiled copies.

Thank you. LeMan.:) .But in Korea, unfortunately, any book stores do not sell the DA any more since it was sold just once a few years ago in only a store. I seem to have waited so long untill the price go down much although i joined here in Sep. 2003. Very shame.:shakehead
As side note, the Mclaren F1 also was introduced just once in only a Korea magazine in May. 1995. and at same year, presented in the first Seoul motor show. Also one Mclaren F1 is rolling out in Korea so hopefully i will get a ride someday.
