Old CAR mags for sale (first ones gone, new list shortly)


Recommended Posts

Posted

I've acquired some old CAR magazines, and need to have a clear out. There's a lot, but I'd like to offer them on here first before heading subjecting myself to the horror that is evilBay. I'll list them by year, if anyone's interested let me know. I'm asking £1 for each, I reckon postage will be £1.90 on top. They're all in really good condition considering some are over 45 years old, any questions lemme know :D

 

All the ones originally listed have been taken (Thanks Trig!), I'll put up new photos and a complete list of the ones I have over the weekend

 

Let me know if anyone wants any of these, will obviously combine postage if sending more than one mag. Payment by bank transfer preferably, as Paypal charge for any transactions :evil:

I'd love these but it's over £50 for all of them. can you do any kind deal on them?, i can collect.

Posted

I would also be interested in certain ones ive sent you a email thanks

Posted

Trigger was quickest off the mark, and is taking the lot!! :D:D Apologies to Bristol405, I didn't expect to shift all these at once!

 

I'll list some others a bit later...

Wow, what a collection. Well intercepted Trig. Never read a '60s CAR before but imagine they're excellent. Beautiful cover photography, too.

Posted

Going to a good home. Triggs you got a bargain there I think, and stock up on the Kleenex mate :lol:

Posted

I'm happy with the price, that's all that matters, they will certainly be going to a good home, I've already got nearly every issue from 1971 to 1992 so these will be a very welcome addition, Looks like I've have to fire up the scanner again!

 

Woody's told me about the others he has (I've already got them), I'm pretty sure there will be some more happy customers.

Posted

How many scanners have you killed? LOL

Posted

I've only had the one go funny on me, It kept leaving a line on all the scans, mind you that was after over 20000 scans so it wasn't bad going.

Posted

I'll get some of the others up tomorrow, I've acquired rather a lot so just have to decide those I want to keep (mostly 80s and 90s probably), and convince Mrs W that I've moved on enough of them! I just seriously CBA to copy and paste code after code after code from photobucket right now...

Posted

Best thing to do Woody is just take one photo from each year instead of doing a photo for each issue, you'll be there for ever otherwise!

 

People will ask if they want more info.

Posted

Not a bad idea Mr Trigs, might just do that :D

 

I managed 135 photos of individual issues today, and that was just one box. There's three more boxes full yet :shock::shock:

Posted

My collection only goes as far back as about '69 so I'd have had the whole lot off you as well. :lol:

 

I've got one or two gaps though, I think round about 82/82 and 85/86 so if you've got some from then I'd be interested.

I'll have a look tomorrow and see what I'd be after if you've got them.

Posted

No problem. I'm only up to 1980 at the mo, but let me know which issues you're after and I'll check if I've got em. :D

Posted

Any more where those came from? I am interested in any 1990 or earlier issues of CAR.

I might have a few from then, I’ll have a look in my big pile of duplicates.

I've still to sort through 1980 onwards, pm me if there's any particular ones you're after, otherwise I'll try and catalogue what's there and pm you. Probably won't get much chance til the weekend though :(

Posted

I'm short of January to July 1986 inclusive (8 issues) plus September - December 1982 inclusive (4 issues) if you have them, please. No hurry. :D

Posted

Pm's sent to Madman and Studebaker :D

 

I'll take some photos over the weekend and post up a complete list of those magazines I've got available, then if anyone wants some just let me know!

Posted

Def interested in pre'86... will PM you

Posted

Hi Woody, I am a big magazine collector but with a complete lack of CAR ... Where are you I could collect and buy a load if possible...I'm in Leicester but do get about!

Thanks

Stuart

I'm down in sunny* Clacton-On-Sea sir, if you're ever in this direction I'm sure we could fix up a meet on router somewhere! I've sent you a pm too :D

 

*** I've replied to all pm's and also sent pm's to those who've replied on this thread (on page 2 anyway!), but they're sitting in my outbox. I've cleared the sent messages folder, but they're still not clearing. I'll check em again in the morning, but if you don't receive a reply please tell me!!) ***

Posted

PMs stay in the outbox till the recipient reads them. Just replied to yours. :D

Posted

Got 5yrs’ worth of ‘70s issues last night, thanks Woody! They’ll nicely fill some gaps in my collection. I’m also grateful to Trigger who got them as far as Ipswich for me. In some ways I’m disappointed not to have had the excuse to visit Clacton myself to pick them up, but time was against me.

 

I may end up with a few spare issues now, I’ll try and get them listed on here.

Posted

List away. I'd be quite interested in reading some old Setright stuff again.

 

That said, I'd quite like to get my hands on some 90s stuff for their Rowan Atkinson / Alexei Sayle content.

Posted

Everyone loves these old CAR mags, theyr'e as good as a good book, and you can read them over and over. I'm going to sack off most of my car mag collection soon, but they'll be staying.

Posted

I've done just that Mr Bolz, kept just my 1980-1990 set of CAR. They are a cut above!

Seconded. I have 1985 - 1994 of CAR, I might get the last four years just to be a completist.
