Have been tasked with finding new homes for my dad's motoring mag and book archive. He collected every copy of Autocar and Motor between certain years, indexed for his work reference. Stepmum is trying to dig out the full list of issues.
But... auction the way to go, yes? If so, which?

Best known now for 4X4s, Subaru came to world attention as a maker of tiny kei cars. This tradition was still going strong in 1989, when this roomy little M80 was on sale in several European countries. Based on the Japanese Rex mk3, it had a larger 758cc four-cylinder engine for export. #weirdcarbs

#carspotting from the grocery run this AM. I haven't seen the second-gen Touareg in a long time, so it was deffo a pleasant surprise. Same re the fairly well-kept Safari Storme 400. It was Tata's best effort with the car and it showed.

The W126 for me.
Having one of my occasional "Let's browse Autotrader" mornings and, of course, my default hunt is for luxobarges. But then I think "Well, the L322 kinda does everything I need from a luxobarge - space, speed, comfort - so why am I looking at other stuff?"

This thing on? Hello! My name's Lewis and I'm a freelance motoring journalist, writer, and author, from the UK.
I'm primarily into classic and modified cars – well, anything that moves under its power, to be honest – and I'm often found at auctions, on eBay, or in the garage.
