This is the second month for Fantasy Five-Packs and two British marques are featured. What could be more British than Aston Martin and MG? If you have an idea for a different five-pack, please send your suggestions via e-mail.

ASTON MARTIN			MG
DB2 - Matchbox	Aston Martin DB2 This early Matchbox model shows the origin of classic AM lines. No windows or interior were standard for this era of toy car.	MGTF The TF was a bit more refined than the TD and Migetoy has done the only small-scale example. This one looks nice in British green.	MGTF - Migetoy
DB5 - Johnny Lightning	Aston Martin DB5 Where would AM be without James Bond? The DB5 was finally done right by Johnny Lightning, elegant and sophisticated	MGA Even with silly Coke tampos, this Matchbox MGA is the best yet. Too bad it has not appeared in the regular line. JL did one too.	MGA - Matchbox
DBS - Corgi	Aston Martin DBS This Corgi favorite even looks good in lime. The body style lasted over 20 years. The dohc six became a V8 later to add more muscle.	MG 1100 The 1100 was an up-market versin of the Mini. This classic Matchboc comes with 'Old Shep' in the back seat, so very British.	1100 - Matchbox
DB7 - Matchbox	Aston Martin DB7 The Jaguar 'F' type became AM's flag-ship for the 1990's as the DB7. Matchbox and Majorette did examples. The DB7 represented a new chapter for AM.	MGB Hongwell has captured the look of the early MGB, complete with a luggage rack on the boot. Produced for over 15 years, the MGB still looks dashing.	MGB - Hongwell
Vanquish - Johnny Lightning	Aston Martin Vanquish Bond is back in an AM and this one is equal to the task. V12 power, stunning looks and JL has given us a great model of this car.	MGF With a mid-engine and considerable Asian help, the MGF marked the return of MG to regular production. Matchbox is the only one to do this car..	MGF - Matchbox
