FEATURES
• LOOK BACK WITH LANGUOR - As the decade ends we retrospectively select the car of each year which, we feel, turned out to be, the most important. Staff.
• PETROLICS ANONYMOUS - Economy from the drawing board, emmission control fuel wastage, how to, drive economically, Australian standards for consumption comparison - they're all included in this comprehensive "why" and "how." Staff.
• MOTORING ON THE DOLE - A realistic guide to welfare driving. Derek Pickard takes a lighthearted look at the possibilities.
• MOTOR SPORT'S CROSSROADS? - Paul Harrington talks to Howard Marsden, the man behind the Datsun Rally Team, and John Shepherd, head of the now defunct Marlboro Holden Dealer Team.
• LIMITED AND UNLIMITED - After twenty years in Australia, Mazda has come up with a couple of rather special versions of the 626 to celebrate the fact. Paul Harrington and David Sega! report.
