I have a complete set of Fast Lane magazine (including all supplements) apart from the very first issue. I'm not sure exactly how many issues there were.

It is quite a considerable stack of magazines, and would cost a lot of money to post anywhere.

I'm now regretting selling the original 1st copy that I had (someone offered me quite a bit of money when I was a student for the copy to complete their collection (magazine was still being printed at the time, abd back copies had sold out). At least the money kept me in beer for a few weeks

I would be open to offers for the remainder of the set though. All are in very good condition, but a few have the competition entries cut-out I'm afraid.

Cool


'Performance Car' were taken over by 'Car' magazine so you can always try ringing them to get back issues. I got a few back issues a couple of years ago and PC had been out of print for 6 months at that time.

Might anyone know how I might obtain either real copies, or microfilm of the complete Fast lane (mark hales, peter Dron) and Performance Car? Both starting in 84' finishing 94' (I don't really need PC from 94 on)

Thanks, JL

I have Performance Car magazines back to '89. Most are there but missing a few copies. Let me know if you are interested.

All,

I have now had 4 people very interested in (or offering me good money) for my collection of Fast Lane magazines.

I have agreed with Jeremy that he has first chance to buy them, and that he can wait until Monday before deciding. I'll try and find out how much shipping would be to the US.

I'll let the rest of you know on Monday if they are available.

I'm off to speed read some of the issues agan for potentially the last time!
