These are packed of Weird concepts and renders, road tests, design reviews and 80's Italian car adverts. Excellent shitists reading material any one fancy making me an offer on them?

I spent many hours in that Cov uni library reading those car styling mags!!, I did eventually track down a couple of 70's ones for my collection. I'm just out side of Colchester.

 

£30 for the 7 vols? thats £4.20 each!

Chances are Nicola will break off our engagement if I bring yet more "vintage" or "valuable" "research material" back home in exchange for actual funds, but I might still get all horny one evening and hit you up. For the magz, obvz.

 

I work in Colchester, live in Mistley so not a zillion miles away.

Must not, must not, must not.

 

While I would love these for additional reading material, I've just acquired 52 years worth of Autocar so would end up hung drawn and quartered if I dared to add any more paper to the collection!

 

Good to know there's another shiter nearby, I'm in Clacton.

 

(With apologies for this post being of no help to you whatsoever!)
