K-car Magazines Wanted

K-car magazine is monthly magazine produced for Japan.

http://www.k-car.jp/

I have one issue, does anyone know a website or stockist who can get them.

Do other members have any copies?

That looks quite interesting, worth getting in touch with Tim of Japaneazi to see if he can bring any of these magazines into the UK (he's a member on here).

Only problem is though they're in Japanese... still, the pictures should be worth it!

These are great magazines, although they are more like a book.

The pictures and photos are amazing.

The engine specs are easy to read plus there are loads of useful URLs.

With this months issue you get a free DVD.

It's when you read these book you realise how cheap some of the parts are in Japan.

Of course, by the time parts get over here with the cost of shipping and import duty, it's a different matter...! But still, I'd be interested in having a copy of that magazine too.

I've got an issue of K-Style in my pile of magazines somewhere! More about styling than performance, lots of Moves etc.

I'd like these K-Car magazines focusing on the Copen, look how many pages there is in each one.

Those really look interesting, would definately be worth getting hold of. I'll fire off an email to Tim of Japaneazi tomorrow and see if he can get hold of copies of this.

I also love the cartoon style covers!

The covers are also available as a calendar wallpapers each month, the Copen appeared last August but it should appear again soon.

Tim is that right, £91.00!

I pay about a similar price per magazine for an American animé/manga magazine I sometimes buy - not cheap, but worth every penny of it!

Hi Aerodown,

Here is the costing.

Subtotal : 9600yen 12 x 800yen each
Shipping : 12360yen, shipping is more than the cost of magazine's
--------------------------------
Total : 21960yen
US$178.87

These are shipped the cheapest way as well via sal.

90.6879 UK Pounds (GBP) is equal to 21960 Japanese Yen (JPY)

You lot insist on getting these Japanese goodies.

If anybody wants to pay the cost of shipping the exhausts for me please feel free, im sure it will only be around the £400 quid mark.

Cheers

Tim/Japaneazi
