Morning Mods,

While searching for information on other forums I found that they were using PH news as we have, why is this?

Thanks
Charlie

Hardly very original though for other forums to use it, surely they would have there own news instead of using another car enthusiast sites newsfeed?

Perhaps a question best directed at the other forums?

Maybe because the PH news feed is quite good (at times).

ph is owned by haymarket publishing so probably has better access to press junkets, releases and suchlike than other websites.

I'm glad to hear that our news is read and appreciated in other places.

Just out of curiosity though, where have you spotted it?

Bare in mind you may have found it on an equivalent PH forum; there are many URLs owned by PH that go straight to here. Trackdays is one that I can think of, but there are many more.
