"
An outstanding and highly collectible collection of original Wheels Magazine issues from 1992, published by Murray Publishers Pty Ltd: Sydney, capturing a fascinating period in Australian and international performance motoring. This eight-issue lot includes January, March, April, June, August, September, October and December 1992 editions, featuring an exceptional mix of Australian muscle cars, emerging supercars, road tests, industry scoops and period automotive journalism. Highlights include extensive coverage of the Falcon GT and GT-vs-GTS comparisons, HSV performance models, Jaguar XJ220, Bugatti EB110, Ford XR6, Holden Senator, Brock-era muscle cars, Mitsubishi and Subaru performance developments, plus contemporary safety testing and supercar performance evaluations.
The collection perfectly reflects the early-1990s transition from traditional Australian V8 muscle toward increasingly sophisticated global performance engineering. Particularly desirable are the Jaguar XJ220 "Fastest Ever!" issue, the Falcon GT anniversary coverage, the Brock/Bathurst "Time Warp" feature comparing legendary Australian V8 heroes, and the striking "Super Six" XR6 edition. The magazines are also filled with original period advertising, manufacturer promotions and showroom photography from Holden, Ford, HSV, Jaguar, Mitsubishi and numerous international marques, giving the collection strong nostalgia and historical appeal well beyond the feature articles themselves.
Condition is generally very good overall for vintage automotive magazines over thirty years old, with light handling wear, edge rubbing and minor storage imperfections visible to some issues. The magazines remain bright, complete and highly displayable, with particularly attractive cover artwork throughout the collection. An excellent lot for collectors of Wheels Magazine, Holden and Ford enthusiasts, HSV and Falcon GT admirers, Australian touring car and Bathurst followers, and collectors of early-1990s automotive culture and performance history."
