These were the tongue-in-cheek alternative to the official F1 magazines of the time, with people like Joe Saward and Eff One cartoons. I'm selling every magazine published by season.

If you're a member of another F1 forum and want to help out a long time TBK-er then please repost this wherever you like!

Note: Currently only shipping to the UK, as each season is up to 5kg each!

I used to buy this magazine. From the first issue until May 1996. I wondered what became of it and when it stopped.

I'm outside UK, so can't engage on this, but just as curiosity, did this magazine have technical information like engines' power values and etc, or just "tongue-in-cheek" stuff, please?

From memory there are more technical articles, but not quite as detailed as Autosport, etc.

Also did it cover or mention anything about F3000?

Might be a silly question considering it is a F1 magazine.

Infrequently they did features about the support series'; I think. I first read about Lewis Hamilton in there. It is funny reading articles about drivers when they were new, like Massa, or Adrian Newey back in the day.

Updated original post; each season is up to 5KG in weight, not 15! Though all 10 seasons combined is 35KG, which was hilariously heavy to try moving in one go :-p

I could look to sell them into Europe/worldwide, but postage would be more of a hassle and expensive.

Do you have an idea how much postage would be to send 1 set to my country (Belgium) And perhaps how much it would be to send around 5 sets. But experience learns that the Royal Mail is very, very, very expensive to send something outside of your country... :(

I might be able to sort out a courier. Currently got watchers on 1992 and 1994 though, so they might go. I'll see what happens and be in touch!

please wait one more week, as we will move to another house...

and I don't think my wife will appreciate it very much, as I have promised not to buy many magazines anymore...

but I already have nearly 8,000 magazines in my collection, this addition will hardly be noticed :D
