The number 1 issue of Custom Car Magazine from March 1973 1970 (thanks for spotting that terry) on eBay for Buy It Now of £24.99.....

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Custom-Car-03-1970-Issue-1-featuring-Ford-Capri-Mini-/130444242518?pt=UK_Magazines&hash=item1e5f152e56




Glad I got mine for 2s/6d  (12.5p) when it first came out   Grin

That's a 200 times increase in 40 years, mmmmm

I didn't buy it when it was new, (I would've been 11 in '73), but I definitely bought a back issue at some point. Guess I should've kept it.
