Many years ago I had a friend say 'Looking for an investment' he wasn't wrong!!,and no thats not mine forsale,but I'm glad a bought e'm :qgaraduate
Actually I've changed this since the first post as with an ebay link it'll end up in Explorer section again!!
Look at early Motocourse editions ie with Barry Sheene on the front or anything pre 2000 so long as the price is right,but the cover must be mint.

It never ceases to amaze me the things we took for granted years ago can be so valuable. There are things I collected when I was at school (Green shield stamp era) and before that collectors are paying a fortune for. SWWBO took her watch to be repaired and as she has a strange allergy to ferrous metal, her watch is Silver. The watch maker told her how much it is worth now. After picking herself up off the floor........About 1000% more!!!
Certainly can see the value of these books, what with retirements and team changes, well done done for coming up smelling of Roses.
Things are slightly diffrent now,when you can hardly get 2% interest on your money,it's great if you have a mortgage and borrow for peanuts but if your at the other end like me it's a ball ache,the Motocourse books are a joy to read any how,the fact they your making a profit as well helps the job along :wave
