Autosport advert

morninggents · 5 Mar 2012, 16:08 (Ref:3035424)

I've tried this in Armchair section and had no takers so thought I'd try it here. I'm looking for a copy of a 1974 Autosport that had the advert for the Broadspeed closing down sale (or at least the Ford Escort part of the business) when they sold off cars, raceparts, etc. It was probably in the July to October period, but not too sure. Does anyone on here have copies of Autosport from that period?

Off topic I know, but I've every issue of Autosport going back 37 years [maybe even longer] and I'm debating whether I should sell the collection or not. Not sure how much something like that would be worth.

Thanks to all. I got a copy from Andrew Kitson.

I ended up throwing my Autosports and Motoring News as they weren't worth anything. There must have been thirty years worth.

A couple of years ago I bought a set from mid '81 through to '09ish. I think they cost about £150. It was an ad on another forum that had been unanswered for a few months but the chap hadn't thrown them out yet.

It's probably easier to find sellers than buyers.
