If you wish to purchase more than one magazine - I will happily offer you a discounted postal rate to help out – Not a problem, just ask!
Please, have look in my eBay shop, you just might find another issue with your bike in
The Magazine that you buy will NOT have the words ‘pygmalion-effect’ across the front cover, like it is in the photo above - that is just my shops ‘watermark’

These magazines are impossible to buy as back-issues anymore
So when they’re all gone, sadly they’re probably all going to be ‘GONE FOR GOOD’!
a good ol' nostalgic read . . . . for just a few quid
