Pretty good but not $15/issue November 17, 2003 Some Guy (Redwood City, California United States) 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
For those who love cars and would like to see how the other half lives, this is a great magazine. Highly focused on it's native British market, it makes for interesting and often amusing reading. If we had half the cars currently available in Europe/Great Britain, the big 3 would be gone.However, a subscription price of nearly $15 per issue is flatly absurd. You can reliably pick this up each month at large book stores. It simply isn't worth that price.
$15 per issue is a rip. November 23, 2003 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
You can easily pick this up at most major book stores for $5-8 dollars per issue.
If you're a fan July 16, 2006 Kelly R. Johnson (Bolingbrook, IL USA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the ultimate magazine to have if you're a fan of BBC Top Gear on BBC2 Sundays. Since the magazine deals almost exculsively with UK market vehicles, it's not of use to a subscriber outside of that area except for entertainment...and if you know the show...you know what to expect. However the subscription price is rubbish. You can purchase a copy (albiet about 2 weeks late) each month from your local book store that covers world periodicals for the cover price of $9.25, nearly $5 less than a subscription per issue.
Best Car Magazine May 20, 2007 minidoug (bay area, ca) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Yes it is expensive, but it must be known that 1 page of Top Gear is more interesting than a whole issue of Car and Driver. Subscribing means paying more ($10.95 listed at bookstands) and getting each issue 2-3 weeks later. I used to subscribe, but I get them at Borders now.
Cars and a good sense of humour. The best available. May 17, 2003 W. L. Kryn (Purmerend, Noord Holland Netherlands) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
If you're interested in cars and can handle sarcasm and well founded criticism, give this magazine a try. Well illustrated and beautifully printed this really is the ultimate European car magazine. Main focus is on cars available on the UK market. Not to worry, the ones not available there aren't worth driving anyway.
