As in the past few years, I have again organised a “Cars of the Rootes Group” calendar for the coming year. The Calendar is A4 Size, spiral bound, full colour, one page per month (plus cover), printed on quality paper (actually light card). I organise it on a not-for-profit basis, purely for the enjoyment of the many Rootes owners I know, both personally and through various groups/forums like this one.
The Cars - There are 13, one for each month plus the cover. There are also three editions, one each for Humber, Hillman and Sunbeam fans. Each has a different cover and slightly different content (eg more Sunbeams in the Sunbeam edition). Here are some links to small versions of the pics used (click on the thumbnails to enlarge).

There are some stunning pics – check them out you won’t be disappointed.
Printing & Ordering - As in the past, it is being printed by Lulu Publishing in
the USA. Lulu provides a `print on demand' service which means that they do not
hold large stocks of pre-printed calendars - they are printed and dispatched as
orders are placed. You can buy any number of calendars from one to a hundred (or
more). Cost of a single calendar is US$12.50 plus postage; for 5 calendars or
more it is US$10 each, plus postage (and it's cheaper again for 25 or more).
Postage per unit is cheaper when you buy multiple copies.
If buying direct from Lulu, be aware that they have a range of postage options some
of which are quite expensive – look for the budget option, and allow about 3
weeks from order date for printing and delivery.
These are the links to buy them direct from Lulu:
