DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

I know nothing about publishing but when a vw magazine like Hayburner is free for £7 postage for 4 issues(Yes I know that there are more adverts than content) you would think there would be a margin at a fiver when to be honest some months a few of the car mags can be quite threadbare aswell!

I have the first 5 issues of Duck and Whale but poor quality paper in a lot of it and to be honest I didn't think the writing was that good!

I wonder if there is a market for an upmarket magazine along the likes of Magneto ,Airmighty etc. A more expensive but quality product?

I see two become one before too long!

Is there any word on 911 and Porsche World appearing on the newsagents shelves again Keith?

Lets hope it's not the defunct Modern Classics team in a new job

I had placed it in what I thought was a sheltered spot but it really couldn't stand up to the weather here in the Scottish Borders. The only good thing was Machine mart gave me a credit note for it's value when I took i...

Love the photo's. Please send some rain across to the East as we are parched here!

Takeflight. I love the original paint Mf35. It looks pretty straight and dent free! I have one my father bought new in 1959 and also a Ford 4000 bought new in 1969 for the grand price of £875. Still earns it's keep on haybob and cement mixer!

Re Early sports seats. My wife who is a physiotherapist had a client who was complaining of his car seat and asked her what sort of car she had. She has a Tiguan but told him he will need to get a 993 as they are the most comfortable car seats she has sat in. And she is not into cars at all!

I am always amazed how quickly after the second world war how many German cars were sold both in UK and USA after such a horrific war. My father had a cousin who had been on the infamous Burma railway and as can be understood struggled with people when he came home. He moved from near Edinburgh to a...
