Car Magazines. Including Car Mechanics and Practical Classics. Free!

[Burnside]

Right then been over my dads today and sorting through some stuff and have came across some of my old Car magazines that I kept. Sadly some older ones have been binned by my family a few years ago but these have slipped through.

 

I'll start off with the Car Mechanics Magazines then as I find more I'll add them. Same with the Practical Classics Magazines. I'll also be adding a separate listing for a few Brochures from the earlier 90's and one late 80's which is brilliant!

 

Would prefer collection ideally from WS9 or if preferred DE12 but can maybe post them at cost with small amount towards packaging etc. All have been clearly used / read but are tidy. Seams a shame to send them to the tip as Im sure someone would get some use/enjoyment out of them.

November 2003. MR2 project Part 4. Readers 1985 Vauxhall Nova 1.2L owned from new.

Hi DE12 is Measham, which although is a Derbyshire postcode is under Swadlincote as the actual post town. Just a few minutes off the M42 junction 11 where it becomes the A42.

[Pillock]

Thanks for the polite answer

 

I'll have some of these.... I'm in Coalville but work a lot in Solihull so usually do the Measham shortcut I'd be interested to see what brochures you have too....

 

I'll take a stack of Car Mechanics, actually not too fussed about which ones so was going to suggest a random selection that nobody else fancies.

Yo Burnside! I reckon I'm interested in the mag with the free Rover 600 project, I can pick up from WS9 area as its not too far from me. Only thing is when.

No problem Pillock.  I've got some more Car Mechanics Magazines somewhere just a case of finding them! It's a real shame some of the earlier one's I had brought i.e 93.94.95 era got binned without me knowing.   I've taken these all home with me now so if you want to have a look through and pick some up from Measham. Just let me know when it suits you and I'll try and make sure I can get back over to meet you.

 

There not many Brochures to chose from but your welcome to pick through them unless you want Fiat Brochures from the 90's as we have most models from then.

 

Did find one for the Lotus Carlton though which I might keep to sell as it could be worth something?

No trouble Lord Sterling I don't mind holding onto a few things for a while just can't keep on to them all as it's bad enough with my model cars and car parts!

 

Funny enough when I saw the article on the Rover 600 today I thought of you! I know the Rover 800 is more your speciality though and have something else here that might be of interest to you.

 

A Rover Brochure of "Today's Cars" October 1992 - January1993 including the 800,400,200,Metro,Montego,Maestro,Mini. The outer cover a little worn but the pages are excellent. If you want it then your welcome to have it too?

[Lord Sterling]

Yes please for 'Todays Cars'. Would next Saturday afternoon/early evening be any good? I *should* be taking my 820E to Telford around then, providing I'm in my own car I could take a detour into Walsall on my way back to Birmingham.

That should be fine Lord Sterling. I will keep on to both for you then. I think Im going to be out most of Saturday but should be back in the afternoon between 4-5pm anyway as me and my brother need to get are Fiat Uno ready for Auto Italia Stanford Hall Sunday.

 

Be great to see one of your fleet too if possible.

[Lord Sterling]

Cool, as I've got family in Telford 4-5pm would be the time I'd be leaving for Birmingham anyway.

Hope the musses didn't give you too much grief over it Pillock! Well so far I've only had interest from yourself and Lord Sterling so think you'll get 1st choice on them anyway even though there isn't a massive amount of magazines and Brochures so far. I did find a couple more magazines yesterday that I'll add to list today.

[Burnside]

Yes please, I'll let you know before I pass by.

 

Thanks Lord Sterling I'll PM your my details shortly.

[Burnside]

Right here are the two Car Mechanic Magazines I ment to add Sunday.

September 2005. Project Alfa GTV Part 6. Project Golf GTI MK1 Part 3. Rover Parts Special. Cars to keep forever Mercedes 190.

[Burnside]

Bump! Still got these bar the Jan 2007 Car mechanics as Lord Sterling collected it last Saturday. Top bloke. Had a good chat and he kindly let me and my brother have a drive in the R reg KV6 Sterling too!

Fantastic motor as good as any Merc of BMW of the period that I have driven. An he had a go in are Uno as well.

 

Am going Billing for the VOBA this Saturday and Sunday by the looks of things if anybody wants any magazines?

[Pillock]

I'm passing through Measham at 8am (boo) but more usefully about 5pm Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. Any good to you for getting rid of a random selection? I could promise you a ride in my car just like Lord S but it's a Ford Focus so you'll likely decline.
