dont read or buy any on a regular basis im afraid. Used to get classic ford for about 5 years but to be honest just found most of it to be repeats on a similar thing, cosie mk2 escort, mint mk1 lotus cortina etc etc ok I'll never get bored of the cars but I dont really need to shell out almost a fiver a time to look at them. Prefer to save my cash and spend it at ford fair / ebay on the real deal if you know what i mean.

Wouldn't it be great though if you could hear and see the cars bezzing around instead of just static photos...?

 

Thats why I come on here, most of the cars featured are either on here or Turbosport so you get to see a lot more of the build up/restoration and sometimes videos. Dare I say that I think this format (online) will eventually replace the mags, if for no other reason than what I have already said.

 

Oh, I subscribe to CF & currently buy RF from the shop (subscription is on the cards though if your readin this fella's :wink: )

I buy sporadically rather than regularly and feel no particular allegiance nor have any great preference for either CF or RF. I enjoy both when I get them though RF is still harder to find across the counter.

 

Sometimes I'll scan them in WHsmiths and buy if I see an article that grabs my attention. Sometimes I'll grab it and run if I have a plane or train to catch.

The only mags I subscribe to is minitruckin from the states as I find that they are further ahead than europe in the customising stakes and there how to teckspecs are a lot more intresting than just "How to fit an oil cooler" ect. its more like " How to fit a 2005 silvarado front end to you 1992 S-10" or "How to fit airbag suspension in a weekend"

 

UK mags just dont cut it for me as they all seem a bit lame. Dont get me wrong the cars are nice but any one can go out with a wad full of cash and buy the entire burton cataloge and bolt it to there car that they have just paid someone else a fourtune to weld and paint and it is in every scene across europe wether it be fiberglass bodykitted saxo's or classic e-type jags.

 

Plus I think there is a massive lack of 4I's featured in mags :roll:
