Just out of interest....

Mine is Evo, (not a big fan of the web site tho)

Least favourite? Has to be Car or Max Power

Definitely EVO. I do read some of the others, but frankly, have zero interest in stories about MPVs, 4x4s, or the new super economical supermini.

Hmm either Classic & Sports cars, or Evo.

Then again, I spend half the time reading C&S dreaming abou ways of coming up with enough cash to buy some of the cars in the adverts!

Are any of them worth buying?
They all repeat the same stuff in a sort of loop.
Last couple I bought were "Bike".
Used to get "Performance Car" many moons ago but that one folded. (No pun intended). CCC was pretty good some months then times not of interest.
The "Classic" brigade seem to target a particular model for a couple of months then move on to another. After about 3 years we're back to the first model again. How many times have they now done "Lotus Elan" or "BMW 2002"? (Sorry those models just come to memory 'cos I had them)

EVO is still the finest in the world (IMHO).

Occasionally pick up a German magazine called Sport Auto. Their monthly supertests are very good indeed, including all-out lapping on the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

Another vote for EVO, and AutoSport when I fancy the idea of getting an old racecar for trackdays (but now I've found www.racecarsdirect.com I just look there instead)
And lets not forget Sprint

Autsport is good for motor racing stuff... and Motorsport is a pretty good read too... especially the old track reviews (like Reims and stuff!)

It's gotta be EVO.

For the first time in years I've actually subscribed to a mag!

Bit pissed off that it's out on the shop shelves a day before it lands on my doormat though. :beingpetty:
