Interesting, shame if it goes, some of the staff seem really good guys when I met them. Some are utter cunts mind, but then most car mags are like that

I used to buy loads of car mags/computer mags/games console mags/shooting mags, but they just got so expensive I cut right down

They're owned by Future publishing aren't they? Same as quite a few mags, could they all be the same?

Same mate, and they started getting filled with anti-establishment crap as well and latantly promoting illegal activity whilst claiming their features were for "information" only

I've probably got a stack of pre-2004 mags if you want to buy those to add to your collection?
Renton's relationship with Hadland was epic!

Ill see if i can justifiy spending money on old magazines, just got car through mot btw.
No text back from renton atm :( . Would be a shame to waste all them lovely project cars though.
Just looked in the last issue and it says next issue is out on the 5th of march. I will have to look for it in town today, if its there

Over the years they have actually become a very good mag, now focusing on the performance side of tuning rather than the chavy cruising scene
