Car Mags

[71notout]

OK, it pains me to type this, but I am finally gonna get rid of my car mag collection - it is just taking up space in the loft and I feel it could be better used by someone else.

I have around 650 mags from 1981 up to 2004 and it is an eclectic mix of the following in various numbers:

Street Machine
Custom Car
Fast Lane
Classic & Sportscar
MG Enthusiast
Classic Cars
Autocar & Motor
Car & Car Conversion
Popular Classics
Fast Car (when the wheelnut count was > nipple count)
Performance Ford
Motorsport
Fast Ford
Practical Classics
British Cars
Ford Heritage
Volksworld
Max Power (See Fast Car above!)
Scottish Motorshow
Your Classic
Real Classics
Car/Performance Car
Classics
Top Gear
MG World
Le Mans & Sportscar Racer
Performance BMW
Offroad & 4WD
Fast & Modified
Enjoying MG

some have only a couple of editions, others (especially the MG stuff) have loads.

I know i'll regret this, but the first person to offer me a crate of Miller Genuine Draft (bottles ) (to help ease the pain) for them can come and take them away *WARNING - heavy! you'll have to help me lift them down from the loft*

I am in Penicuik for those interested.

Reply in here and i'll check back periodically.

Cheers,
Steven (71NotOut)

I'm very interested, just not sure where i could store them. Guess they would make excellent reading material at the garage.

How many boxes are we talking?

[71notout]

Laid out in single storey, you are talking the footprint of a single bed if that makes sense!

Different sized boxes, would need a decent sized boot to take them all away in one go.

[OlberJ]

I can borrow the HGV, sorry CR-V off the old man

Yeah i'll take them then, alright to get them one night next week chief?

In a similar vein, I have a large supply of Autosport magazines dating back to about 1992 that I can no longer afford to hang on to. So if anyone wants to take them off my hands (collection only!) please get in touch (I'm based in West Lothian, 15 mins from Edinburgh)

[71notout]

That's fine with me OlberJ - drop me an email to steven[at]stevenhedley[dot]co[dot]uk and we can discuss the finer points.

Maybe drop by West Lothian on the way home and double your haul

Hi, what Performance Car issues do you have? Thanks

[71notout]

Sorry bud - these are now spoken for.

However, if something should happen and OlberJ no longer wants them, i'll give you a shout.

Hi,

Firstly many thanks to Ian for the magazines and for taking the time to give me a look at his stunning car!

I now have some issues to move on if anyone is interested, and like me just wants something to read -

Most EVO issues 93 to 128

Autocar magazine March to October (i.e. newest ones).

Couple of other random ones thrown in there too (Top gear, What Car, etc).

Free for pickup - just send me a PM. In a box for easy collection Aberdeen area.
