Yes, that M10-P "Reporter" looks like it would go well with their new 
Noctilux and is a snip at a small bulge over ?8k. So with ?15K spent, 
what will you look like? :-)
This is the description of the "Reporter"
"The Leica M10-P "Reporter" special edition, marking the 40th 
anniversary of the Leica Oscar Barnack Award, is designed to be the 
trusted companion, even in the most difficult photographic conditions. 
Deeply rooted in the history of photo-reports and in the most legendary 
Leica cameras, the latest generation "Reporter" features a top plate and 
base with a particularly scratch resistant dark green finish. The edge 
of the camera body armor is made of Kevlar fiber, which offers 
exceptional strength and high grip. Under the influence of ultraviolet 
light, the armor will gradually develop the same color as the top and 
bottom plate of the chamber. All camera engravings have been detailed in 
discreet light green paint. All the technical characteristics and 
performance are identical to those of the Leica M10-P camera as standard."

So fascinatingly, the camera will get a suntan as you take it outside. 
BTW the answer to my question "what will you look like?" is, of course, 
gullible.
