Classic features-Old Skool Remix! Can I get a re-re-rewind?

[RJM25R]

Hi all, I'm getting married in January and part of the deal is getting rid of the big pile of car-related TAT from the bedroom and attic ready for moving house after the wedding. I have kept a big box of mag features, mostly nova but some VW stuff as well, some euro mags (VW and OPEL) so I figured, why not start a mag feature thread, along the lines of the OLD SKOOL thread.

I'm gonna start with my Total Vauxhall feature for the purple warrior, Jan 2001

Wow. That MAX Power buying guide takes me back.

All classy Novas were modelled on the GSi styling back then.

Just goes to show the longevity of the Speedlines too, popular as ever, 11 yrs on. (strewth 11 yrs)!!

[stuartp]

I'l dig out some mags!!

[Mazz]

Nice scans! *Right click, save as....
Max should have done some research first me think's, as GTE came with vented discs aswell...

[dan16v]

[Brodie_Sri]

I was only 7 in 1993! I am lovin all these old pics:thumb:

[draper]

[Dave.]

[RJM25R]

Keep it up Guys! Can we get a re-re-wind sticky???

[Nick J]

[Saloony]

Not one saloon in all of that:cry:

[RJM25R]

Not one saloon in all of that:cry:

[Saloony]

have you saloon owners not taken the hint yet?
And what would that be dear??

[RJM25R]

That there are very few feature-worthy saloons out there.

[Stuart]

ohhhh quick toss one off its another "lets pretend its still the 90's" thread....

Too many stickies to go in general.... maybe it could get stickied on jov ;)

[RJM25R]

[Matt2107]

Handbags at dawn.

[bigbened]

lol

[stuartp]

lol ?50 on the old boys!!lol No seriouly i like threads like this shows what i missed out on.

[JSeymour]

It was better in the 90's stuart, you weren't around!

quality!

the old skool novas look sooo much better then half the sheds that go around now.

[Stuart]

indeed standard novas do look better than the GRP tat of today....

i wasnt around in the 90's? feck how did i get from the 80's to the 00's ?? ahh yes stasis lol

[Aamir]

Just came across this amazing thread, good ol' rick ;)

[Tim]

that is a bit of a re-wind, all good though. i was about 15 wen i started buying max power (now 25), and no, i dont buy it anymore,lol.

Back then the feature cars were nearly all home made jobbies, much better in my eyes, nowadays they are all just demo cars for companies who can do all the work for you, bit of a cop out if you ask me.

thats when i found out a i had a bit of a nova addcition, and its still going strong, lol.

[novajen]

wow ive got near 100 old revs mags most with nova's in, sitting under the bed gathering dust. got given them about a year ago by a mate who didnt have a use for them and knew id read them,which i did then went and bought the nova! they date back to early 90's (issue 1 i think!) all the way through to 2003. anyone got a use for them?

[Ste L]

anyone got a scan of the silk violet gsi with xe dropped on its ass, on tigra wheels, and porche brakes from revs, think it was about 98 or something?

[Breeny]

I'll dig out the mag scans that people have done in the old skool thread in a bit. My breeny site is offline so will have to upload them again lol

[stuartp]
