A blast from the past - 90's AutoTrader

[sdkrc]

I wasted an entire childhood going through the AutoTrader every Thursday and helping my dad pick out cars for his dodgy, bargain-basement garage.
My favourites were the Breaker's Yard and the £500 and under sections.
In an effort to recapture that I've blown an unreasonable (for a weekly mag) amount on a few pristine magazines.

I'd like to share some of that nostalgia as I bet there was a good chunk of you getting these in the late '90s.
Any requests for car prices in Yorkshire in the 90's and I'd be happy to oblige with some photos.

I've only got Novas from 98-99 and there aren't too many crazy prices.
I think you're right and 94-96 might have been a bubble.

Hey OP. Can we see a shot of the Aston martin page please?

I'm afraid the Astons are probably in the Top Marques from the same era...or maybe the southern editions of AutoTrader.
I'm convinced I saw an ad for a Virage without a photo so will keep an eye out for that again.
Here are some consolation specials:
