A whole bunch of brochures, mostly from BMW. But there are some odd ones like the Rover and Vauxhall brochure. Thought I’d share this.

I saw it and thought you found a stash of floppy disks.

You remind me of the fact that my brochure accumulation, it’s not really a collection, from when I was a child, is one big mess and needs to be sorted. My brochures ranges from everything Renault to every other car my father or uncle wanted to buy, so I’ve got brochures for a lame Toyota Verso, but also for the Porsche Cayenne Turbo.

My “collection” which isn’t really a collection is also damn mess as you can see and is also mostly from dealers that my grandfather went to. That’s why there are so many BMW brochures. I actually want to get more brochures but I don’t know where to store them haha.

Nice!

This is what I have in one dresser drawer. I also have an entire dresser devoted to brochures (not pictured).

I always stored them in a bunch of those plasic boxes, which I put under my bed, due to lack of space.

I need friends like that. I got to get my hands on a Giulia brochure when they finally hit the dealerships. A classmate’s dad owns an Alfa dealership.

Maybe there’s also a 4c at your not so local dealership. The one in my town has two of them plus an Alfa 8c. That and they will soon get the Fiat Spider which is worth a look.

Then it’s a good thing its’ not running Lenovo hardware ;)

It’s actually running a Dell Optiplex 780 motherboard and other assorted hardware. Also, the Xeon processor to the left is probably going in later this week. This thing is so hacked together, it’s not even funny (OK, maybe it is). I’ve been running it in it’s current state as my main computer for nearly a year now, and it’s worked nearly flawlessly.
