I had some, but I had to throw most of them away (my room is too small for every great things that I like). I have the best one still, though. Classic brochures are very interesting, but I don't have any.

Thanks for the link! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Oh you can have them, I could send them by mail. They are quite haeavy (all together) and I'm not sure how long my closet will hold it. So you can have them all. Except the Miniimages/smilies/biggrin.gif, the Mercs are quite good hardcovers too.

Oh yeah, you have Beetle or Karmann brochures? images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Which one would you like? I'll make pics so you can see how they look, then you can decide if you still want them.

You want them all by mail? Because I don't have a scanner, I can make dig pics but that won't be as nice as scans I think.

I have to weigh them, could be quite expensive though.

If you have MSN, you can add me. My adress is in my profile.
