Hey dippy. Im gonna keep bugging you man, will it be possible for you to upload them this weekend?

Sorry for nagging you, but the prospect of thses manuals is too drool-inducing.

A new brochure has been added to my collection. Just forgot to update in this thread

I recently got a hard bound brochure of the all new W221 S Class. It is quite a collectors piece and makes for good reading. It is around 100 to 120 pages odd

Hmm seems S-class brochures geenrally rule. I have brochure the old-old S-class,(I forgot model code), ie GTO's favourite benz car (according to his thread). Even that one is awesome!!!

How did you get hold of it, man?

i am also having some really nice brochures on my pc.
i downloaded them from internet and some of them were recieved in email from respective companies.

I've got a decent collection of catalogs from cars from the late 80's to the early 90's. This includes american, japanese, and some german cars. Let me know if you want any particular ones scanned.

Just thought I'd bump up this thread for members

Just acquired the official brochure of the new Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, hardbound 80 pages awesome photographs. :D

In addition to this got the owner manual of the Ferrari F430 hard copy . Its the french version but still a collectors piece.

Other borchures I added few months ago are brochures of:

Audi Q7
Audi RS4
Audi S6
Audi S8

how come i never noticed this thread before?

im crazy bout collecting automobilia, and that mainly means automitive literature...while i do have loads of modern day indian car literature (which is pure crap!), my main interests have been vintage and classic...my oldest stuff dates to the 1920s, and an uncle gifted me many chevy and studebaker catalogues from the 40s...they are gorgeous! My great grandad would bring the latest brochures whenver abroad for my dad, so now i have them, but as vintage...mainly english stuff, except for one fabulous cadillac range catalogue from the 60s. I really must get down to scanning it for posterity...

i have a sizeable collection from the US and Europe.

Here's my brochure list :

1. Porsche

2. BMW

3. Mercedes

4. Alfa Romeo - This was actually couriered to me all the way from Bristol (came via FedEx) free of cost. Placed an online request on the website few years back.

5. Aston Martin

6. Jaguar

7. Renault

8. Citroen

9. Saab

10. Dodge (Viper)

11. Chevy (corvette)

12. Lamborghini - my favorite brochure. Picked it up in Italy.

13. Ferrari - Another fav which I picked up in Italy.

14. Lexus

15. Peugeot - love the 907.

Some are published in French, so i make do with the pics unless my wife has patience translating them to me.

I love brochures too.

The problem is, how do you get them without giving the salesman your contact numbers and him calling 3 times a week asking when you are planning to buy the car?

Also, in Dubai I doubt anyone even cares about the cost of a brochure, but in Indian rupees, it comes out to 100 rupees or so, and they'll have only one copy of it in the showroom and it'll be laminated.

I have an extra copy of hard bound brochures of PORSCHE 911 Turbo, ROLLS ROYCE Phantom and Phantom Extended Wheelbase. Im wiling to swap them with any other good brochures, in case anyone of u have any extra copies.









Lovely pictures max bhp these old Merc brochures are the real collectibles. I have a similar one but for the W124 E Class.






















JAGUAR Catalogs



FORD Catalogs



VOLKSWAGEN Catalogs



2006 YAMAHA Sportsbike Range



1999 Mercedes M Class


Used to collect these when a Kid, now I just keep all Magazines - ACI & TG . Never throw them away or sell them to Kabadi .. Maybe one day they will get me fortunes !!! LOL !!

BTW I am sure most of you would have noticed at AutoExpo, people come in Hoardes and collect handbags etc, catalogues, freebies !! Wonder what they do with these. THe only time I did this was at Mercedes Stall a few yrs back, Loved their Pack - I actually did buy a LIghter from them - It was better than Zippo ( MODS - SORRY FOR GOING OFF TOPIC )
