Send some spec, details and GOOD pics to any one of the magazines you want to get it in.
If it's worth a feature, they'll get in touch and sort a shoot out.

Chris What he said  There contact details are in the front of the magazine, include any interesting stories etc Always helps...  I'm guessing either Retrocars or Total Vauxhall would be the natural place for it... Depending on the owners preference |

Volvo, Buggy, Discovery and an old tractor.

bitd didnt the mags find the owner and ask for a feature, ?
Kinda like a sign that your worthy, asking the mag to feature it seems a bit to easy... or are the mags being lazy and waiting for people to come to them?

Works both ways, the mags will still contact owners of cars they've seen to ask to feature them but if a feature worthy car comes to them they're hardly going to turn it down. |

When my old Beemer was featured, it was because I was selling it and someone from the mag had seen it on eBay...

As easy as Chris and Bryn have said. Simply give your chosen mag a buzz and see if they bite... That's how the majority of feature cars materialise and particularly over the colder months when there are no shows to hunt out for potential mag-worthy cars.

its always a nice feeling when a mag asks if they can feature a car but they don't always see all the cars so by sending them some good pics you can let them know about a car they may be missing . that said the wife is upset that they don't want to do her polo as i said to her though lots of people may like it but it may not stand out enough for it to be feature material
