    A couple of comments on Peter's list:

    Chaters have been going for upwards of 40 years. A big stock - including some unusual stuff, secondhand and remaindered items - and very helpful staff. Fair prices.

    Hortons have quite a lot of unusual books and Ferrari related items and their stock is usually in perfect condition, but prices are top dollar. Have all the later series Yearbooks and the Japanese 'Scuderia' periodical.

    Both exhibit at major events such as Silverstone and Goodwood.
