I'm subscribed to Evo which I think is always a very good read.

Mainly focused on newish sports cars (hot hatches, sports saloons, supercars) so none of you're boring shopping carts. Photography is always excellent and sometimes does nice retro reviews and buyers guides as well.

I've been subscribed since Issue 1 and now have about 160 in my collection.

I don't buy many car magazines any more, but I always find classic and sportscars a good read.

i do ppc, and sub to race car engineering which i can honestly say is one of the best reads going. A lot of very interesting articles.

I also sub to model engineers workshop which is good but i am waiting to appear on Have I got news for you as a guest publication

Second the "Classic and Sportscar" recommendation but I also sometimes buy "Classic Car"
Just whilst I'm on (and apologies for hi-jacking the post) does any-one have a copy of PPC #44 MX5 article they don't want or could scan for me please?
Cheers, Pewe

Race Car engineering for me. Articles by some of the most respected auto engineers in the industry. Some articles can be very in depth but usually written in a style that makes them understandable by all.

i like race car engineering as it usually has the math to support what they are saying rather than just someone churning out regurgitated hearsay.

I picked up an old copy of race car engineering, for the first time last Saturday. One of the best reads in a long time, certainly looking to get it on a regular basis.
