Title: magazine tests
Post by: Ktm181 on October 05, 2012, 04:40:02 pm

Hey Gents,

not sure if correct section but easiest to get everyones attention!
I am looking for some magazine tests for the mighty RM500, the D model mainly, from both ADB and MXA. The MXA edition is Sept '83 not sure which month ADB was, i would like to buy either the mag OR  maybe someone can email me a copy of the actual test from their copy of the mag, any takers?

Cheers,
Kt

Thanks for these Zorros, i hadnt seen the comparo one before, its excellent.
I have been trying to get in touch with Wazza on DBW re anaother test copy but for some reason DBW wont let me in today to contact him!?! Any chance of obtaining the test copy from Wazza and posting up here with a link? I'd make good reading for all us old blokes round 'ere!

Would you believe I had an afternoon nap yesterday, and way over-slept? :P
