I like Cars and Car Conversions although alot of people don't because the reviewers and "experts" come across as a bit dim. Its also ever so slighty Max Powery. Evo is generally a good read though.

Not yet but I need it pretty soon as my "bog copy" has been done cover to cover. The good thing about EVO is it's just about long enough to have 30 good dump long reads in it before the next issue arrives. Also guilty of Superbike, Performance Bike, MCN, Stuff and I used to enjoy Later but they went bust. EVO's the only subscrption and it keeps my Mother in law happy every Christmas.
