I have been looking for a website that will sell Le Mans annuals for a while now. Mainly I am looking for 1989, 1991, 1992, 1993 , and 1994 annuals. Though, if you have any help in my search, any website wll be great. Thanks

The easier for you should be the ACO one : they have some old annuals in english for sale...

<I think you might have a problem with the 1994 edition . Its the only one that I am missing since 1989 . I seem to remember something about a licencing agreement and that it wasnt printed in english that year . Shame that !!!

That's right 1994 is in French only, as are 1980-83, 1985 and 1986, it goes back to 1978. 1983, 85 and 86 are particularly difficult to find. For the others try,
http://www.chaters.co.uk http://www.collectorscarbooks.co.uk and http://www.boutiqueautomoto.com (mostly French versions). |

Before someone else says it, despite having an obvious connection with Le Mans and, therefore, sportscars, threads about books (videos, games etc. etc) generally belong in my other home here - "Armchair Enthusiast". I'll give it another day or so here, and then we'll let those in their armchairs have a think about it.....

Another thing I cannot find, besides the annuals I am looking for, is a review video in NTSC format of the 1993 Le Mans race. I have forund one at dukevideo.com, but it is only in PAL format. Does anyone know where I can find the 1993 review in NTSC format also?

My copy came yesterday and I'm looking forward to sitting down and having a browse through tomorrow. Tim, I'm afraid to say that I didn't buy it from CCB - don't know why - will try harder

Aysedasi, I'm glad you left it here for a while at least. Gives me (a very raw rookie) a glimpse of the other facets of the Le Mans experience and shows us what else there is around.
I will start looking for this sort of thing too now, thanks. |

Dunno if it's a typo, but the 2003 yearbook is available from amazon.co.uk for £13.23. Order Forza Amon with it and postage is free...

Regarding backdated annuals, I've been collecting them gradually through eBay. Usually they go for around £20, although some years seem to be rarer than others and therefore the price goes higher (did pay £40 for a 1978 annual).

Well I finally got my copy of the 2003 book today, and I have to say it is quite impressive. It's the first one I have got my hands on, might try and get my hands on some more.

I was at the Autosport Show yesterday and I managed to pick up the 2002 version for £20. I must say that is also a might fine read.
