apparently not, i asked the same question about a year ago on here, i am a fan of 8 tracks and still own the one i purchased in 1973, still got the receipt and guarantee but i think it's run out now
They didn't.8-track was never a huge thing in Europe.

Thank you both - Im picking up a sack of old 8 tracks next week and looking for something to play them on -
Russ:looking for something to play them on
got to be a weltron, look at some pics
by the way, if they need some repairs go to 8 track heaven explains how to do a simple fix
Ive seen the Weltron its wonderful and its matching speakers and lights
ɓʋɾɑɳɫɘɮ: Russ:looking for something to play them on Ricardo for the win!
That's funny, but also probably true! 20 years ago I had a 1978 Lincoln Continental Mark V with Ford's top of the line stereo, with 8 track player.
I do so love it when people love old tech and keep it around and functioning! That's why I will always have a tube amp around, I kind of consider it technological archaeology.
I never had an 8 track back in the day, but have very fond memories about cruising around in my best friends Ford Maverick with an under dash 8 track blasting, doing the kind of aimless driving around you do when you're young, broke, and bored. For a long time we were so poor all we had was two tapes, the deck had eaten all the others, Fleetwood Mac and Simon and Garfunkels Greatest Hits. Over and over and over...

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus.
I dont think I ever saw a Home 8 track player only ever in cars
