[Wobdog]

Does anyone know what year and month Ken Purdy wrote about the the 2800CS in Playboy Magazine? Or were I could find this add?

I started reading it for the articles when I was about 13, didn't look at the pictures so I must have missed that ad.

Late bloomer?

No but I sure will enjoy looking for it.

Probably under a bed somewhere...

Taken from under the bed when the owner went away to college or moved out, stacked on an end table/head board (in the dorm) for anyone who comes in to peruse.

Purely speculation I'm sure..

Would be between 1968 to1971 that the review would have been.

Found it! June 1970, an article titled "The Germans are Coming!". I found it thanks to another ad in a newspaper that specified the month and year (here)

The "R0 80" is interesting - looks like a cross between a Peugeot and a newer Citroen. Hadn't heard of this car.

Not looking at Patty Maguire at 13, no.

Love the couple’s fashion in the 914 photo. That floppy hat and yellow mini are classic. I miss the 70’s. Guess that nostalgia somewhat explains my love of the e9. Peace.

You all have inspired me to go onto eBay and order the issue. My wife is shaking her head…

 

[Wobdog]

You wife will love it. My wife said the same thing, but I know she will spend more time looking at the women then I will. A much simpler time.. Its worth it for the adds. I will fill you in when I get my copy

I have the issue as a 100MB pdf – too large for email.
I can compress it to about 25MB but the result is poor.
Is it possible/legal to post a 100MB magazine to the forum?

$10 you can get the paper version on ebay. Had to get it, the back cover has my very first car 1970 Capri! It is Karma
