I agree on the cost, too high when you add the postage in. They need to work on better value delivery as according to them they are charged £4.
The franking sticker on mine says the postage was £2.95. Suppose the rest goes on the cardboard box. As I mentioned, it’s big and going to the sorting office to collect if you’re not in is very tedious.Edited by MattBCardiff on Thursday 1st November 19:04

You really are paying for the quality of the thing, the pictures are top notch and articles I have read so far are engaging and fresh. Personally, I think it's well worth the money and will certainly be subscribing.
It's in a similar vain and ethos to 5054 magazine but better resolved/written/laid out/produced IMO.
Finally got around to subscribing a week or so ago after SWMBO failed to act on unsubtle pre-Christmas hints.
Haven't read all of Issue 1, but the production quality is very good and I'm enjoying the artwork. Certainly worth a punt considering the content to price on this vs regular motoring magazines.

Bit of an insight on the production of it at the beginning of this:

I've been bought a subscription of this magazine for my birthday. I haven't read a car magazine since giving up on Evo a few years ago. Apparently the bloke behind it is the bassist Coldplay? But I won't hold that against him!
First impressions were that it may be a little pretentious and highbrow for an oik like me but the quality of writing and the stunning photography has won me over. Just starting on the second edition which has a large feature on the Porsche 917 by Nick Trott.
