first copy of MAX POWER May 1993, worth anything?
I've found a load of car mags,
came across the first ISSUE of MaxPower
May 1993
and
July 93
Aug 93
Sept 93
are they worth anything.. a collectors item?
also got a copy of RedLine Nov 2001 that has a review of TRAX and pix of the P1 that crashed on the first bend (I remember it as there at the time) reg P1 RPV
oh and that porker Turbo .. reg P4 ERG

They might be worth something to someone short of bog roll.
Although the paper may be a bit shiney...

The whole adolescent humour, lowest common denominator thing of Max Power just makes me cringe.

I love the surly expression on the face of the lad driving the purple pug.

I think the Porsche had just been bought that day, and it was the drivers first Porsche and his first ever trackday.
I was also there in my Scoob.

I used to buy it to knock one off to the dirty slags in the back of the magazine. I thought they were talking about snooker when they asked pink or brown though.

I agree, before it got slagged up it was worth a read.

Cripes, it's like deja vu all over again:
Found Issue 1 of Max Power Magazine
No clues in the other thread on how much the guy got for his, but I'm sure it would fetch a few quid, if you can find the right collector.
