Max Power Magazine, July 1997 Issue

CORSA 2.0 16v - Watch in awe as Proby drains surely the last dregs from the pool of dodgy Corsa headlines. Until the next one, obviously

PUG 205 CABRIO - 231 bhp of 205, done in a tequila-slamming, taco-scoffing, sangria-downing, sombrero-donning stylee

MAXI MEGANE - This is the real one, boys and girls. The full-on monty Maxi Megane, the most awesome rally car in the world at the moment. Brown trousers at the ready, Bradders

RS TURBO FIESTA VAN - 'It's a mellow yellow orgasm machine', says Gerard. No it's not, it's actually a former British Telecom RS Turbo Fiesta Van, with quite a bit of ICE

BMW COMPACT - More from Proby's best mate, Tony Rieger, who's done a nice little yellow Compact BMW. 'Vot do you mean you von ze var At least ve Germans are good at fussball...' (Thanks, Hans! - Rusty)

THREE SPECIAL NOVAS - Shouts of -Derk!' can be heard over a 200-mile radius as Scouse bloke finds three-way Nova action too much to cope with. Doesn't get out much these days, you know

ICE CARS - Big Adam unveils his ICE-laden Volvo. You can witness mids, amps and subs galore, once he's taken all the burger wrappers and empty pizza boxes out of the boot, that is...

CLIO 16v- Ben comes from Maidenhead and this is his car, a rather splendid twin-headlamped and Maxed Clio. You can't say fairer than that

FREAKS OF NATURE: RANGE ROVER V8 4.6 - Range Rovers aren't usually Max Power's cuppa, but with a supercharged V8 4.6-litre engine and a 0-60mph time of 6.8 seconds, it's worth a gander

GOLF GTi - A Mk3 Colour Concept for your pleasure, stacked up with all those tasty little Deutchcar bits (Hello Mr Paul - Proby)

CALIBRA 2.016v - The south coast played host to this shoot. It was a gorgeous day, the sun was shining and loads of girls with outrageously large knockers were walking about. Where are the bloody photos, then

Fifty great cars pictured in one jizz-evoking centre section. Fittingly the words flow from the quill of departing editor Ambrose who had tears in his eyes as he took the piss out of each Max staffer In turn. Read it and weep...

READERS' CARS: KITS OUT ORION - Bounding the issue off nicely is Berkshire's soundest Ford Orion. He's selling it to get a Cossie, which is probably a good move (He could buy a Nova- Proby)

PASSENGER SEAT - Sam Coles on Sega Rally, penis size and the merits of having .in incredibly long tongue. Oh, and she's dressed as a copper (well, almost dressed)

CRUISE PATROL - The intrepid Jethro goes all the way to Fife to see some bird get lin tits out, before the police turn up and scupper everything. 'But she was gagging for it, honest...' (Actually, Gez shagged a haggis instead - Proby)

PROJECT CAR PREVIEW-We know you've been waiting...but you'll just have to a little bit longer I'm afraid
