Max Power Magazine February 2003 Toyota Celica Honda Civic Seat Ibiza SKU 1459

Original Max Power Magazine – February 2003, a substantial early-2000s issue packed with modified cars, tuning, styling, performance features, ICE/audio equipment and the magazine’s period glamour photography.

The main attraction is the extreme Toyota Celica GT300-style cover car, accompanied by a large selection of modified Japanese and European performance cars.

Main Cover Car – Toyota Celica

The February 2003 cover is dominated by a heavily modified red Toyota Celica, described by Max Power as:

“FULL PHAT! Wide-Arch Celica”

The car features extremely wide bodywork, large alloy wheels, huge rear wing, aggressive front bumper and extensive Japanese-inspired styling.

The contents confirm a dedicated Toyota Celica feature starting on page 6.

Honda Civic

Another prominent feature is the Honda Civic, promoted on the cover under the “Max Metal” heading.

Inside, the contents list a dedicated Honda Civic feature, making this a useful issue for collectors and enthusiasts of early-2000s Civic tuning culture.

From the photographs:

• Front cover remains colourful and highly presentable
• Main cover image and text remain clear
• Noticeable light surface rubbing and handling marks
• Some edge wear around the front cover
• Corners show minor softening / wear
• Lower-right front corner shows a small crease / bend
• Spine remains intact but shows age-related rubbing and handling
• Internal pages shown appear generally clean and readable
• Some page edges show light age and handling wear
• No obvious major page loss is visible from the supplied photographs
• Magazine appears to remain firmly bound
• Rear cover shows light rubbing and edge wear
• Overall shape remains reasonably flat for its age

I would describe it as a good used vintage copy with normal cosmetic wear, rather than mint or near-mint.

Please study all supplied photographs carefully, as they show the actual magazine being sold and form part of the condition description.
