cruiser647 Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Had a quick look at one of these whilst in Sainsbury's. They had the new Lexus IS250. they showed it's inerds etc. what a lovely looking bit of kit. Well impressed! The they showed the new Honda Legend! With 4 wheel drive and a big V6. That looked good too - seems as if Honda have listened. should be a great car. I am sure Carmad will agree! And the LS 400/430 will be 4 wheel drive too, and even that looks good. Much better than the current bulbous nosed front end! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilB Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Not too keen on Auto Express these days. Seems to be the Daily Mail of the automotive world, along with Photoshops biggest customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarMad Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Deffo Autocar for me its far better. Just have to take some of the erm scoops sometimes with a pinch of salt. As for the IS and new LS... Lexus are creating some really nice cars where BMW is having a few design problems. Add to that stunning reliability and build and they are now a major league contender in every market across the globe including Japan now, where Lexus are Lexus models.

P_G Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Must admit I subscribe to AutoExpress, but it's taking 5 mins to get through nowadays, not 30-40 with interesting articles. Time to give up the subscription and move to TG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonb Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 I've just done that P_G. My excuse to Dennis Publishing was that i didn't have time to read it. Which felt true at the time, yet i seem to find time to read Evo. Secretly i was telling myself something. I have 4 auto expresses here still in the wrapper - unopened! Used to be such a good mag!!

NewNiceMrMe Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 I have a cheap subscription to AutoExpress....and I have about 30-40 unopened copies in my study. Easy that many. I just haven't got around to cancelling the sh1te. They write the most 'non-offensive' car reviews of any publication I've ever read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigR Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 I read Autocar most weeks, there is always something interesting to read in its pages. Have read a few times on TSN, people knocking the scoops, most of the up to date motoring info is in there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonb Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Most of my car news seems to come from TSN of recent! Anything else i then read is old news. I think Bison should put a mag together!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazza_g Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 I remember when Auto Express was 50p and actually a decent read, pretty naff now. Autocar gets read more and more regularly at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Don't do Top Gear.. Yes it has Clarkson but the rest of the view are annoyingly biased to the reviewer. Plus its a half way house not a serious mag aka EVO and not full of info like CAR. Autocar best weekly Evo - Easily the best monthly CAR a good combination to fill the gaps.
