When I was about 12, I swapped a model Volvo truck; cab, trailer and containers for a copy of Private magazine. That was an addictive piece of literature....
I have a lot of old issues of CAR magazine, I appear to be incapable of throwing them out...

256kb of ram expandable to a massive 512kb. Twp floppy drives and it's yours for $3900. Bargin.
I'd just left school and was programming in a assembler on an 8 bit machine that allowed 32kb of addressable memory per user.
My uncle ran a newsagent so I read loads of different stuff, none of them with the cover on mind you as he had to return them..
I loved my dads collection of Meccano Magazine the most though.
RAD mag, Thrasher, Wavelength, Surfer magazine and ASL
2000ad for me plus I loved Gamesmaster magazine, it used to have swearing in it so I thought it was the absolute pinnacle of cutting edge computer game mags.

Magazines pre-internet were so precious, used to read cover to cover more than once including every ad.
We bought RAD ( the whole thing, not just one issue. ) didn't work out as planned but spawned the excellent Sidewalk.
Mountaineering mag called 'Mountain' just a great picture, the name and issue no. on the front cover bit like premier version of ST! Can't find a picture I can embedd 🙁
Went out of biz in 1992.
Angling times. I also used to love the hidden treasure (porn mags) found in local woods and on railway banks.Today's teens are spoilt with the internet 🙂
Look and Learn for me to. Big fan of the Trajan empire.
Wasn't Eagles over the Western front in there as well?Loads still in mums attic.
Moved onto various fishing weeklies then to Mountain when I could get it, Bumbler and Stumbler when I couldn't and then TMX. Anyone want 4 big blue barrels of the latter?

Climber (and Rambler) - which dates me by the title!!!
Various motorbike mags, god knows why as motorbikes were/have been verboten in our family due to past accidents.
Another favourite of mine (still got some of them. Had this one with my bass hero Youth on the cover)

Jesus! I'd forgotten Zigzag.
I still have the one with Debbie Harry in her zebra print mini on the cover.
And Pete Frame's Family Trees.

Eagle. I wasn't the biggest fan of Dan Dare but Charley's War and Death Wish made me wait by the letter box for it every week.
Charley's War was actually in Battle, my dad was the artist. I loved reading the free comics he drew in when l was a kid. Tiger, Lion, Cor! Buster and Battle amongst others.He was the first artist of Roy Of Roy Of The Rovers too. He is now regarded by some as one of the best comic artists of his era. Such a shame he didn't get any recognition in his lifetime.
DezB I have the space spinner. I'll post a pic tomorrow. No comic though , my mum gave them all to a scout jumble without telling me. Infact I went and thought that someone like me had the lot and had donated them!
For the op....

MTB International and trail magazine with my hard earned pocket money. And every Friday auto express. Used to love going the newsagent on a Friday afternoon for that.
My dad was a printer for a national company and he used to bring all sorts home. Being a petrol head myself I had all,sorts of automotive magazines, commercial van monthly or something! I still read it cover to cover . Sad. 😀
just seventeen and more
with no clue what half the articles were about!

I used to love reading Car in the eighties, when it featured the eccentric LJKS, Russell Bulgin and Gavin Green.
