Just spotted an advert for this when checking out from Ebay.
Hornby official issue, not sure if it is restricted to John Lewis.

Linky

Only red and blue minis and no special features, but the price seems fair/attractive. Diehards like myself have been waitingsince 1968 for this

Was not sure where to post this, apologies if not spot-on. I have no allegiance to the vendors.

Kinde regards, Leo

The track in that box is only the standard figure 8 in any basic set. Would you not be better looking for the Collector's Box of "Italian Job Minis" that Scalex did a little while ago?

Exactly my point. You get the 3 cars in the 3 colours with the boxed collector set. Ok, you don't get any track but you can run them on any track (Turin or Toronto). I don't see what the big thrill is with only 2 of the cars and a figure 8 track.

I can't really see why. The last ones I saw available here (Aus) were on severe mark down. Go figure.
