So I think it's safe to say EVO is looking like the favourite car mag for the well read pistonheader but what do you read when your mind turns to other things.
I'll admit to reading FHM every now and again, RIDE BMX Magazine (I'm still a boy at heart) and I still ride
But nothing else regularly, must get a life outside cars

My non car read is 'The Kitchen Garden'. Which gives me lots of tips about growing veg and getting rid of unwanted pests.

Well, since Bodo's recycling....

Otherwise.. well.. I used to read a lot of magazines but frankly find them a waste of time these days, when everything can be found on the internet.

I don't have the problem of storing half a dozen box-loads of internets in my loft either

Fave non-car mag will have to be the Shooting Times, not very big, but still a good mag.

Depends what's about... FHM, Loaded etc etc are all easy reading... Marie Claire and Cosmo are just SCARY! (as purchased by the misses)... and for when you don't want to read... just amused by pictures you can't go wrong with...

Blimey! Good to see the 'times still getting a youth readership - I salute you!

As far as non car mags in my household, apart from Evo the only other two regular periodicals to drop on the mat are Wired and Playboy.

Yep, the older I get the faster I was It's how I manage to keep in such great shape
I must admit to not riding as much as I should at the moment it's a bit cold out and the indoor parks are full of pesky kids

Martial Arts Illustrated, Combat, Traditional Katate.

and sometimes Cosmo when I am really lost for stimulation (I don't buy Cosmo, I must add the gf does)

Cheers Matt,

It's a good little mag and I love shooting, just like to get away from it all and go and have a round with my instructor at Bisley, lovely to be out in the fresh air. Great stress relief too!

Do many PH'ers shoot?

Another vote for Shooting Times here and Country Life. Now the wedding is done and dusted I am no longer subjected to at least 15 different bridal rags per blinking month.

I think EVO is a good mag but I do prefer CCC, it covers more on car handaling and proper tuning, not the chava smutt in MaxPower
The other mags I like to read are LandRover World )top mag( plus a one or two air gun mags aswell and any thing else that I like th look of thats on the shelf.
