I'm sure some mug would pay top dollar for it !!
The earliest copy i've got is issue 12, July 96 !!

TBH i can't see the PNG being what it was back in the day (prove me wrong !!) ?!?!.

Supprised you found a PNG mag in your stash.
I can well imagine what your magazine library is like and it would be nothing to do with cars!!

Yep, that's what I thought, with Tim Harvey hammering it, don't suppose anyone has links etc?

lol 90's + Nova = A16V TB. I don't remember any PNG stuff being on TG and I used to watch it religiously - every Thursday eve and Friday lunchtime when I was at school lol
Obviously back then though, as cool as all the mag featured PNG motors were they wouldn't have stood out as much as today as Novas etc were all over the place.

I want to see this too, esecially if Tim Harvey has it on track.

IIRC it was that young chap that did the motorbike reveiws (name escapes me) that featured the Courtenay turbo on Top Gear. I seem to recall he used a povert spec saloon as a comparison or rather contrast to show how mad A16 VTB was. Not really a must see from memory though I'm sure it would be good the 1st time.

Right I've converted the clip from VideoCD to Avi and Keith's kindly stuck it on Megaupload as it was a bit slow hosting it on my webserver at home.

The megaupload one seems to be working ok, you have to enter the 3 digit code and then wait for the free download button to appear.

The one on my webserver seems to of stopped working for some reason, although the file is still there...

The one on your server worked ok for me andy?
