There is an event called 'mph03' at Earl's Court in a few weeks, it looks like it is a Jezza Clarkson stand-up show. There is a website somewhere, probably http://www.mph03.co.uk
There is a proper Motorshow at the NEC next summer (not Autumn as usual) for which tickets are on sale already. |

Motorshow Live is May next year - www.motorshowlive.com. Described as being " bigger than ever with interactive experiences like stunt shows, 4x4 driving, rally race courses and a driving school."
Not forgetting of course hoards of kids fighting to grab handouts about the latest dull Eurobox. Come on admit it, we've all done it at least once. |

Don't knock it - I was that kid in 1982,83 and 84, managed to scoop up just about every brochure for those years' releases and held on to them. About three years ago, I got tired of giving space to publicity material for Skoda Estelles, Mk5 Cortinas, Zastava Yugos and the all-new Lancia Trevi and bunged the whole lot on eBay.
Ten days later, I was $1000 richer and 27 kilos of publicity material was heading off to a library in San Diego. I wonder what the car enthusiasts of California made of the 1982 Dacia Denem - the Romanian licence-built Renault 12 which was marketed in the UK for all of 15 months.... |

I'm not knocking it. I still have an almost unliftable box-full sitting in my parent's loft. All late 70's - early 80's. Mostly Ford, BL, Vauxhall and the like but the odd gem here and there.
Having seen some of the prices at autojumbles and the like I did think about selling them but no idea how best to go about it and what they are worth. I'd probably get less as a job lot but then I'm not sure I want the hassle of running 500+ seperate auctions. Maybe another winter project for me. Dacia Denem? Car on the leaflet was light brown?
