Huge collection of UK car mag scans

Just found this and thought I'd post it here...

It's a huge collection of car tests from UK car magasines from the '70 through to the '00s

I remember reading loads of these and I still have most of the magasines back home.

It really amazing anybody bought a Marina when roadtests had "Awful handling and roadholding, bad gear change and appalling finish" as negatives and "full length parcel shelf" as a positive! :lol:

Really scraping the bottom of the barrel to find some good features there! Interesting to see the 1300 compared to a Dr Grip spec Kadett too.

6 Panda tests, YAYzers.

An article on the Tercel. HUZZAH!

The mention of fuel cells at the start of the NSU test is interesting. You tend to think of it as a recent thing but clearly they have been on the horizon for a long time.

Panda vs Metro... fuck off.

Full length parcel shelf - I have got to get me one of those. ? :lol:

Reading some Car mag articles, is amazing how great that mag was in the past, much better than anything publised today.
