[Andyk]

EVO just dropped through the letter box..Front cover MC Stradale......Not read it yet but its ....GT3 RS 4.0 V Maserati MC Stradale......I pretty sure I can gather which one wins.....

 

[Andyk]

And just to add.............If anyone was wondering what Harry Metcalf had changed his Maserati GT for he has now taken delivery of a used Maserati GT S.............Its the one that Adam posted a while back....Blue, tan leather and anthracite wheels....He px his 2007 29000 mile car and had to give thsm £22500....Now he has a 2008 14000 mile GT S...

Have they done full performance tests? What was he 0-60, 0-100 for the Stradale? What lap time?

thanks

 

[Andyk]

They only have claimed 0-60 etc.......But they did put it around Bedfords West circuit as they do with most of the cars they test..A bit like Top Gears Lap times....The 911 GT3 RS 4L is 12th on the list at 1.21....The Stradale is 29th at 124.5.......

Also in this month is the Lancia Integrale buying guide.....

Bedfords west circuit , is that the Bedford autodrome Andy, AKA (Johnathan Palmers) race circuit/school or Millbrook


regards loz

 

[Andyk]

Yes, it sure is Loz.....Wasn't that where you had the wet day.....Don't mean it was raining either.....

 

[lozcb]

No it wasn't at the Autodrome or Millbrook , possibly Bruntingthorpe


regards loz

 

[Andyk]

Not Brunty...Millbrook sounds about right....

Evo,

is one mag I pick-up in a shop to flick through every time I see it. About once every 10 months though, I'll actually part with money for it as there's something I really want inside.

Having said that I bought the "Turbo" issue a few months back... Sounds like I'll be buying this months also...!

Ditto, have succumbed to the more refined Octane magazine, but will be making a special trip to purchase EVO.

 

[Andyk]

EVO is the only one I get every month...Still love it but some of the reviewers do get on my *** a bit...But I still find they give the best review of a car....The other thing that gets on my nerves is the EVO watch section..Every month watches that cost a fortune..WHy not put stuff in there that us mortals buy.......

Take this month.....

Louis Vuitton - £4350 or £18000 in pink gold
Chopard Engine One - For sale to the highest bidder
Cuervo Y Sobrinos Historiados - £4490

I like seeing these but balance it up with affordable ones as well....

 

[GransportFan1]

I dont stop buying magazines, will have to one day, this month i bought.........

Octane
Evo
BMW Car
GQ (perfect for reading on the toilet)


Which reviewers do you not like Andy? personally, Monkey Harris does my head in, he criticises every car apart from Porsche, John Barker, Richard Meaden and Harry Metcalfe are the best people in the mag.

The essential section is annoying as well like you say, always fancy watches most peeps cant afford.

Went to WHSmiths today but they haven't got the new issue yet. So how did they rate the car?

 

[Andyk]

Sorry should have mentioned I have a subscription so get it a week early...Will be in shops next week.......I'll give an update on how they rate it tonight as a bit pushed this morning...But it's fair to saw the 911 was the better car....No suprise there.

Where do you keep them Adam , under the bed beside the **** , how often do you have a clear out , i used to colect all the sailing mags , before too long the floor boards were creaking


regards loz

 

[GransportFan1]

Keep them in the wardrobe although that is getting rather full now. could not put the **** under the bed, the mother does the hoovering in my bedroom about twice a week, she would find them. I had a clear out the other day, only threw away 6 mags, would hardly call that a clear out when i have about another 100+ collecting dust in the wardrobe.

 

[dem maser]

Was ot the **** you threw out & 100+ **** mags or car mags? Hahahaha

 

[GransportFan1]

Threw out the car mags, had a look in Zoo yesterday, not really a **** mag but Kim was on the front cover, could not resist a sneaky peek.

 

[dem maser]

With kim on the front cover i would read that mag too....
