I'm a subscriber to Magneto magazine. It's a quarterly, printed on decent quality paper, with a production team that concentrates on all aspects of the magazine, especially graphics, layout, high quality images and entertaining and informative copy. Just got my spring issue, 200+ pages. I won't list the contents, but it focuses on enthusiasts' cars of all ages, wandering mainly into the past. There's an article headed Fear and Loathing in High Wycombe, on the 962CR. New to me.

Over the past couple of years, with events being restricted or even stopped, it's been a lifeline for those of us who went to such shows.

I'm keen on graphic design, although I had no talent to create it, and a magazine that isn't art house which still takes time and care with layout and the graphics is a real treat. The covers are literally a work of art.

Their website https://www.magnetomagazine.com/ gives a taste of their style and content. There is normally the offer of a free download of a previous issue.

Other than being a big fan, I've no connection with the magazine, unfortunately (but I'm open to offers). The team that produces it are more or less the ones who started Octane before selling it.

I haven't read Magneto yet (I fear we're in the wrong forum so please move if necessary!) but I subscribe to RoadRat which I think is very similar. Grown up writing, beautiful photography and great graphic design. A real piece of art. Well worth shelling out for if you like that sort of thing.
