Just going through old issues of Max Power, The Golf, PVW, fast car etc all from 1999

Makes me


There was an advert for a Nokia 5110 on contract though

I can't decide if I should bin them or keep them though!

I had to bin mine, used to depress me thinking how much money a small pile of mags had cost

Yes it is depressing but One of those things I think will get more interesting with age. Classifieds had mk2 Golfs going for £6k etc loads of old fords and vws that already hardly see on the roads.

It also made me miss having a project. The creativity and dreaming up of wild idea was always so much fun

You could say that about everything, would hate to think how much i've spent on Fruit Machines, or Alcohol, and got nothing to show for them

Yeah but for every pint you drink theres not an empty glass in your room reminding you how many you've had or maybe there is if you have a beer belly

I had every max power from around 93 to 2000.

Sold them all back to the shop owner I bought them from (I assume he sold them on for more though lol)

I had the May, maybe June issue of Max Power I bought in 1995, had a pinky purple 205GTI on the front I seem to remember. Dont know what happened to it, must have it somewhere.

I had a huge stockpile of MaxP, Fastcar, Redline, Performance Car etc from about 94 through to 2000 and my mum binned them all in the summer of 2003 when i was working away in Essex.

Recently got my paws on a stack of Supercar Classics magazines from the late 80s. Keeping them for a while, reading one now and then, will probably sell them in a few years when they hit 25.
