WANTED: Old Motoring Magazines

Post by markysimon » Thu Feb 23, 2012 12:42 pm

I'm looking for old copies of Car and MotorSport magazine for a project I'm working on. Complete volumes or odd issues from the late '60s, '70s and '80s are required and I can collect or would consider browsing through your collections if you are not willing to dispose of them. Links to anyone else you know who could help also gratefully received. Send me a PM if preferred. ;)

Many thanks - Mark

Bummer indeed! :x But assuming they include the titles I'm after, d'you think their new owner might be willing to let me browse through or borrow them? And if so, could you put me in touch (via a PM) ?

Cheers - MW

I have some spare copies of Autocar and Autocar & Motor featuring XM tests that I will be putting on ebay shortly (1989-1993). With regards, Matthew T.

Ohhh, that reminds me, I forgot to post the details of the duplicate magazines I have. Perhaps we could trade before you hit e-bay Matthew.

Sorry Robert, but I have already listed the mags, although do take a look and let me know if there are any you might wish to swap. With regards, Matthew T.
