hahaha so back in the day 60 series tires were ultra low profile?

Wonder what those engineers think of the 40 series tires lots of people run with their 17's now heh.


That's cool though...looks like the S12 turbo was a bit pricey at almost 9000 pounds...(for the time period)

Stephanie, do you think you could get a higher quality scan of that? something like 300dpi? I'd love to throw that up in club-s12's multimedia section.

£14,995?

You sure mate, I'm sure the most expensive they sold for was £12k roughly.

Based on RPI statistics, Its funny that £12k in 1989 is equivalent to £20k nowadays...

Based on that advert in '84 of £8,994 then thats like £15k now...

(if it was £15k in '89 then it would be equivalent to a £25k now)
