Max Power Magazine February 1999 Peugeot 306 VR6 Polo Saxo Golf BMW E30 Tuning SKU 1524

Original Max Power Magazine – February 1999, a strong late-1990s UK modified-car, tuning, styling and ICE issue packed with period hot hatches, high-performance builds, cruise culture, audio installations and show coverage.

The cover is dominated by a heavily modified Peugeot 306, promoted as “Pumped Up Pug 306”, with an aggressive late-1990s bodykit, large alloy wheels and distinctive turquoise/blue finish. Other cover themes include Essen Show, Police Aggro, Getaway Driving, an induction guide and mobile multimedia.

This issue is particularly good for collectors interested in the late-1990s Max Power era, with a very broad spread of modified European cars and performance builds.
