Rallye News Magazine November/December 2022 RS Owners Club Rally Cars RSOC SKU 1477

Original Rallye News Magazine – November/December 2022, produced as “The Exclusive Magazine for RS Owners.” This is a specialist enthusiast publication connected with the RS Owners Club, aimed at owners, enthusiasts and collectors of RS performance cars and related motorsport material.

This issue has a particularly distinctive illustrated cover combining classic rally imagery with a Christmas/Nativity-inspired desert scene, making it an unusual seasonal issue within the Rallye News series.

Cover & Magazine Details

The front cover features the large RALLYE NEWS masthead in blue, pink and white, with the complete issue date clearly printed beneath:

November/December 2022

The main artwork is a detailed illustrated desert landscape under a star-filled night sky. Several competition/rally cars are incorporated into the scene alongside camels, figures, hills and a prominent star, creating a humorous motoring interpretation of a traditional Christmas scene.

The rally cars are shown with period-style competition liveries, auxiliary lamps, sponsor graphics and rally markings, making the cover particularly attractive to collectors interested in RS cars, rallying, motorsport history and owners-club publications.

Prominent cover features include:

• Registrars / Local Groups
• Members Cars
• RSOC Merchandise
• RSOC Christmas Jumper
• RS reviews
• Events
• News
• Forums
• General RS Owners Club material

The cover also directs readers to the RS Owners Club website, reinforcing this as a dedicated club/enthusiast publication rather than a mainstream newsstand motoring magazine.

Collector Interest

This issue should appeal particularly to collectors of:

• Rallye News magazines
• RS Owners Club publications
• Ford RS memorabilia
• Classic rally and motorsport magazines
• Owners-club literature
• Performance-car publications
• Christmas-themed motoring memorabilia
• 2020s automotive ephemera

The illustrated seasonal cover gives this particular issue a different appearance from a conventional photograph-based motoring magazine and makes it a nice standalone display piece for an RS or rally enthusiast.
