Volkswagen Driver, EVO & Autocar for me. Love James Ruppert and his 'bangernomics', Steve Cropley is an absolute legend and Steve Sutcliffe is also a great writer in my opinion, butI miss Chris Harris's contributions. Autocar keeps me going weekly until my monthly's arrive.

Well it is getting boring now, but yes, it is another Evo magazine vote here too. I also get Top Gear as a comedy magazine, Autocar for a weekly artwork fantasy mag and FHM for serious manly issues  :laugh: Car magazine is good on occasion, but sometimes a bit vanilla in it's writing style.
Golf R gone.

I have had a few over the years. Currently have Top Gear. Previously had Evo, Autocar & FHM.

Evo was good. Might go for that again. I prefer the iPad versions now though...less to carry around :happy2:

Job done.

Due to (near) 100% recommendation I've signed up to EVO (well the misses has, it's a extra Crimbo gift).  12 months for £40 with their Christmas deal.  Do I need the iPad issue as well though? Is it just the same but downloadable for my iPad?

Is slightly different. You normally get more photographs, but essentially the editorial is exactly the same. There normally a few video features as well. It's worth getting if it's only a few pounds more, but it can't replace the printed copy for me.

^^^^ thanks for the info.  :happy2:

I've just checked, It seems thats its only 50p extra so will phone up tomorrow and add it on.

Agree, you can't beat or replace the physical printed version. Always feel the same when I use my Kindle, it's just not the same.
