Hello all,

Recently, i have had this large interest in classic car adverts from the 1980s.

Below are a few examples, you can see how much they have changed over the years.

Insufficiently pedantic Warren - criticism should be for ambiguity. Even if the adverts are classic, the cars may not be AND there are lots of adverts for classic cars in the PH classifieds.

So does the OP mean "classic adverts for cars", "adverts for classic cars", "old adverts for cars which are now regarded as classic cars", or "classic adverts for cars which are now regarded as classic cars"?

Well, if you want to have the "Correct" title it would be, "Old adverts for cars which are now regarded as Classic Cars".
