How do you make the pictures bigger?
You need to sign up to flickr, It's free so don't worry, then when your logged in click on the all sizes tab at the top of the picture you want to see to make it bigger, It will be fully readable then!. :-) Back in the days where you could point and say Ford, Vauxhall, Rover etc. Not "Ermmm...It was a BMW, I think"?
Interesting one: The "Rover SD1 2400 SD TD Road Test 1982". I only ever saw ONE and that was dark green.
Never did take off, but then again around that time the only Diesel things were... The Postvan, Peugeot 505 estates and rust buckets that fishermen seemed to drive

You have a review of my first car - a Talbot Horizon! Thank you, Sir, I'm off to do a bit of reading
Edit: Wow, it's even more woeful than I remembered. The review is of the diesel but I had the 1.3 litre petrol which had similar performance - 0-90 mph in 50 seconds! My current 911 does 0-90 in about 9 seconds. hehe.
Great stuff, many thanks.

I'm sorry for the O/T post.....
If I had an Iphone or something similar could I view these superb image scans?
I'm due for an upgrade next month and that may just swing it!!
Bsck on topic, thanks OP
I Don't know TBH, I've tried on my crappy Samsung F480 and you can see them but not that clear, Though the Iphone is a much better phone for the internet.If I had an Iphone or something similar could I view these superb image scans?

You sir are a legend! this should be a sticky!
Thanks! *Blushes* Don't think they would do that though as i think autocar & What Car? both belong to the same company that own Pistonheads (Haymarket) and they might get funny over the copywrite.Got loads of What car? Magazines to go though now, Might start again on Monday.

Thanks guys, Just thought I'd quickly add that you can view my collections here http://www.flickr.com/photos/7869726@N02/collectio... which helps you to search specifically which magazine to look at and if you want to add me as a contact so you can find my pictures easier then feel free! :-)
Done a few more today including a Lotus Excel Vs Porsche 944 test & Aston Martin V8 Vantage test all from 1984.
