Bring the large colour poster inserts back !
Wow, you know I forgot about that and we commented about that in the historic form and a blog the other day.

As a kid, my whole room, including ceiling were full of posters. I'd say a good 1/3 to 1/2 were filled up with ones from Autosport. In fact, I use to go to the centre just to see what was there before I read the rest of the magazine.

Now I have a garage, I'd love to do the same to that (my bedroom is out of bounds for posters now!). I actually think thats one of the best ideas to come out of this thread
