No .. mod away .. i have learnt so much from doing this if you check out the link .. there is talk of making the machine guns firing and exhaust smoke .. some members have got the fan running ..
Best thing is to have fun and learn something new

Looking good. I'm a bit jealous because I subscribed to the DB5 and Fabbri have so far only sent me issues 7-12 but not 1-6 so can't really start! Maybe they've got supply problems.

Phoned up DB5 and they said theyd get 1-6 in post for me. I had to listen to four recorded messages before i got through - the first one is a bit of a dodgy James Bond impression - worth phoning to see how bad it is!

Phoned Fabbri twice for my DB5 parts since. Still no issues 1-6, no idea what they are playing at, can't be that difficult, they promise they will send but nothing arrives
Still, deagostini have sent me first issues of McLaren and it's awesome, so is keeping me occupied!!
