I gave my sister's bloke all my landrover mags the other week. Now they ring me up saying they don't want them anymore and can they chuck them... ()

I actually have a sneaky suspicion they are going to sell them actually and make money out of me , but i wont go into that here!

Anyway i said i would offer them to you chaps first. Basically its every LRO mag more or less from 1992 to i think 1996 which is when i attended Uni so stopped subscription. After that there is a few extras here and there upto latest dates which is when i bought them if interesting etc, or dad felt like treating me!

Also these dates coincide to when LRO changed and some of its original team broke off to new mags and so there are a few of the other LR mags in this lot too.

Bear in mind there's quite a lot and so postage is out of the question. Can probably be picked up from either Norwich Bedford or Chester, after that you're on your own.

Let me know if anyone wants them, otherwise i'll (sadly) let them go to wherever...

If i had the room i'd keep them as there is some gems of info, especially for the older models, which will presumably die out as they become less common? I have no LR and not likely to get one in the near future so.....

I would love to, Buff - if I didn't already have them all

Anyway, that's a generous offer

BR, I'd have had them off you but you're miles away from me and picking them up is out of the question, arse

Well if you are on route between norwich and chester, it may be possible. I am *somewhere* most weekends...

I just don't like the idea of sister either making money out of my things (i would give them away - honestly!) or else them throwing them out when they could go to a good home - even if that person then gave them away afterwards.

Took all mine to the recycle place about a month ago - LROs from the very beginning (1990?) to 2002 ...

Almost filled the back of the car with 'em.

The original crew set up LRE magazine, but the articles started to repeat from the old days.

I got fed up with it when they started to do the "What to buy for £x" articles, where they showed vastly overpriced vehicles - eg £2k worth of 1990 V8 Discovery full of faults (that they found) stickered up for 6k. Oh, and the dealer happened to be within 20 miles of Peterborough, and a prominient advertiser.

Has improved again recently and I subscribed for free show tickets.

Sorry missed this!!

I will check my sister hasn't chucked them. If not, i'll call!

Which junction is Lymm services at?? Shouldn't be a problem though.

M6/M56 intersection, where you turn left past warrington to go to Chester?

Or do you travel up the A1 / M1 and then on M62?

Either way I will meet you to collect.

Regards
Neil Russell.

Hi there

Have managed to rescue the mags and my sister is going to take them to my mothers. I am not sure when i will next be going that way to pick them up, probably about 3 weeks time or so.

I will PM you nearer the time to arrange a meeting point if you like.
