RossG Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Why do you think AUTOCAR is crap? I buy it each week - keeps me going between CAR and EVO - and I think its a decent peice of work. I like the fact that it is made up of lots of smaller articles - and plenty of informal stuff - perfect for reading in small, 5 minute snippets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonb Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Dunno really. Just really never liked it. Always preferred Auto Exp - but that's gone crap recently too. I find that it all seems to be old news these days - this place is where it all seems to come first hand!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torino101 Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 I love Autocar! Never miss an issue, it obviously suits different people as I have always found Auto Exp crap . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dan Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 Anyone else noticed that since Rob Aherne took over the proof reader / typo checker spends most of their time off sick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdiesel Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 I have bought Autocar ever week since 1976 (when I was 9), but find it has recently turned into the Chris Harris / Steve Sutcliffe Mutual Appreciation Weekly. I still keep buying it though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
