Minor Matters - disposal

Post by southerly95 »

Trust you had a good Christmas one and all. Trying to free up book case space here and wondering what to do with several years worth of the club magazine. I kept them as I thought I would use them for reference but never have in reality.

Any views? Cheers, John

Shame you are so far away, or I would have taken them off your hands. Saving every penny to get a replacement Minor at the moment.

Yes, does MM mag still list Stolen Minor's(?), would come in handy
Further investigations uncovered it was an inside job!!

The reality is that once you have read the magazine there is little you can do with it except offer it around and it is not always wanted.
Eventually the older unwanted copies go in the recycling.
You can only keep so much :cry:

I wonder if the club will ever go over to e-distribution of the Minor Matters Magazine. It would save a small fortune in publishing and distribution costs. I suppose a small number may not have access to the website and it may be that a physical copy would not be viable in such small numbers.

I agree an e-MM would be greener which would also maintain advertising revenue hopefully and possibly reduce subs :)

As a new member to the club, if anyone near to me has any old unwanted Minor Matters magazines that they are disposing of FOC, please could they be passed on to me. As would like to catch up on what has been happening, over the years. I thank you all in advance of any kind offers. Thank you

I scan and index the Tech pages. Unless there is a particular reason to keep them, I usually give them away; often to practical types, who are getting sick of modern cars.
