Does anyone have a copy of the Cars and Cars Conversions, " All about beach buggies" magazine from the 70's for sale?  It had a blue cover with various buggies on the front. It's what got me interested in buggies as a kid
Thanks in advance

Is it the magazine Manx David uploaded here

No, the triple C one was different, much better.

I'll upload it when I get a chance. I've still got my original copy but it's not for sale though.

Yep, that's the one  8), I just did a Google image search and found that very photo and was just about to upload it here, but you beat me to it. If anyone has a copy for sale, please let me know. It was my "Bible" as a kid, but it got "lost" when we moved house. If you could upload it that would be fantastic also
