The October 1998 edition of wheels has 90% of the edition on the AU falcons. You would have to scane most of the Mag. That would take ages.

Sorry Tornado in the test the TE50 out performed the R8 clubby only on the 0-60kmh but close until 140kmh then the R8 pulls away.
But the TE50 won out as a better car to drive due to chassis and presention plus 10 thousand dollars cheaper.

no can do. They are property of the magazine that prints them, its illegal to reproduce and republish..even on a website

xr8 007 · 31-08-2005, 11:09 PM

bugger thought so!!! umm how about we send them a letter for their permission. They might say yes considering that the AU is no longer the latest model around

Perana · 31-08-2005, 11:23 PM

I have got a lot of wheels/motor magazines around the time the AU was around... They are all packed away at the moment but ill get them out sometime and scan them if i can find a scanner to use lol

Steffo · 01-09-2005, 12:05 AM

I've only got AUIII stuff.... AUIII TE50 vs VXII Clubsport R8, AUIII XR6-VCT vs VXII HSV XU6 vs TJ RalliArt Magna... and the BFYB that featured the AUIII TE50...

JC · 01-09-2005, 12:19 AM

I definitely have Oct 98 Motor and should have May 99. Will let you know tomorrow

outback_ute · 01-09-2005, 10:26 AM

I’ve got the May 99 Motor, the article is a test between the AU XR6 HP, VT Commodore S s/c, Magna Sports and Camry Touring. You will not be surprised to hear the Falcon won! I’ll fire up the scanner this weekend – any other articles needed? I have a shelf or two full of Motor & Wheels mags

I'm sure I have this scanned at home already as I too asked about having it on the aufalcon website.

I also have other AU related Motor articles I can dig up.

That would be the Octobber 1998 edition of wheels I have the September & November 1998 Wheels editions & they have a fair bit in them of the AU but the October is nearly the whole mag on the AU's.

jspec_sti · 02-09-2005, 03:48 PM

Any articles on the AUII or AUIII XR8 with the 220 motor would be greatly appreciated was well...

**DJM83** · 02-09-2005, 05:31 PM

Hi jackin my thread hahahah me first though

buickman · 02-09-2005, 08:24 PM

The covers of the wheels mags with the write ups & tests. You should be able to get copies from second hand mag sellers for $1 to no more than $3.

buickman

loxxr6 · 03-09-2005, 01:45 AM

I know I have the second and the fourth one. The second one I have should be on the pc scanned to go.

buickman · 03-09-2005, 10:10 AM

The 2nd one which is the October 1998 has the most info on the making & testing on the AU.
I'am looking through boxes of old mags & coming up with 1's I thought I did not have. Its taking time as I'am throwing the one's of interest & not all AU's to one side to look at later.
Most of the 1's I have are the AU1,3 & TE series AU's only come across 1 mag with info on the AU2.
