Anybody looked at it this week? editor has changed again and immediately there is one of the most vulgar Saxo's I've ever seen on the cover.
I really like what Si Jackson was doing with the magazine but the whole thing seems cheaper now. It feels thinner and the cover is crap quality, they've changed the layout inside as well and it lokks crap compared...the few feature cars in it are no where near as good quality as has been in the last few months.
TBH I'm really really Disappointed the Mag seemed to have been getting to the kind of level it should have been with some really good feature cars especially the fereign Euro Sax's etc.
Lost a reader in Me. But what do you peeps think?
Sorry fr the Long Rant.

Sorry hoped it wasn't a pearoast didn't check carefully enough.
Yeah I understand its recently changed hands. Apparently Si the previous editor was trying to turn the French scene into a mirror image of the VW scene......Dunno if I believe this, Yeah the magazine has had a havily VW influenced range of feature cars recently but anyone think this has been a bad thing? Certainly not me.
I was really excited to see the French "scene" moving into Euro and some of the Track cars especially the likes of the Red Supercharged Saxo VTS have been awesome. I feel as if the mag is gunna slip back into Huge fibreglassed monstrosities.
Feel Free to Pass on your Comments on the proper thread

nobody picked up on Simon Jackson semi rant in the editors chat of the last issue? He was basically saying how people have been bitching that they dont show the cars they want etc. He said he couldnt please everyone all the time etc etc. I guess this was a vent just before he left or was pushed.
