Motoring Magazines - reading for car enthusiasts years ago!An introduction to this growing section at oldclassiccar ...Motoring magazines have been around for almost as long as the automobile itself. Many titles have been and gone, with just a few of the 'old timers' still available at the newsagent. In this section at oldclassiccar, I hope to feature some magazine titles that I've come across over the years, that relate to the motorcar in some form or other. There will be heaps of titles that I've never heard of, or else never had chance to look at in any detail, but with a bit of luck I'll get a reasonable selection of car magazines into this section for your perusal. By their very nature, magazines tend to be bought, read, then either chucked straightaway, passed on to another keen reader, or end their days as bathroom fodder before being deposited in the bin a few weeks later. Collectors nowadays might stick to just one title, perhaps focus on any motoring magazine from a given era, or else try to hunt down any mag that featured a road test on a particular car of interest. Me? I just tend to keep any old car mags that I find that are of interest, although I do try to keep a cut-off of the 1970s in mind wherever possible! Please call back here again shortly, by which time hopefully I'll have added in some pages specific to mags, such as those shown below (Motor Sport, The Motor, Autocar, Mechanix Illustrated, Commercial Motor, Motor Trader, Practical Motorist, Measham, Autosport, Car Mechanics, and Motor Repair & Overhauling). A number of fairly obscure motoring titles, some from overseas, will also be included in this section, hopefully including magazines that have disappeared into the mists of time. | ||||
