Just seen this post on a british vintage website. Check out all the great articles posted up there, great bike reviews, old Trans AM, MXDN articles.
Suggest if anyone is interested they download and save the PDF's before they get pulled.
It's with just a little sadness that I have to announce that my main website Dave's Tests and Articles http://www.davestestsandarticles.weebly.com/index.html is going to be removed from public view.
From the start I understood that their may be copyright issues by displaying scanned content publicly and freely on the net.
Well, three years on, I have incurred the wrath of a major UK media company. After a very hostile and threatening initial message we got down to some negotiating for a licence to display their copyrighted magazine articles. Unfortunately £120.00 + per article per year is beyond my means !
To the visitors to the site and people who sent me scans, thanks again.
The site will close on Sunday 7th July 2013.
