These Octane Magazines are quite heavy compared to other publications, because they are packed with articles and so they fall into a Royal Mail category of ‘Large Letter’ between 500g-750g (thus, they are around 40p more in postage)

If you wish to make a multiple item purchase - I can happily offer you a combined postal rate, not a problem just ask . . . or click on the 'Request Total from Seller' button, when paying

I have literally thousands more Magazines, from a diverse collection of other publications, covering all decades from the 50’s, to present day – so if you have look in my eBay shop, you just might find other issues with your Car, or Bike, in them

Your purchase won't have the words pygmalion-effect across the front cover, like it is in the photo above - that's just my shops watermark

These magazines are impossible to buy as back-issues anymore, and are now only commercially available through enthusiastic magazine sellers like myself!

When they’re gone, they’re sadly probably going to be ‘gone for good’

good ol' nostalgia . . . . for just a few quid
