Personaly i think its lost is way. Bought the last issue and i can honestly say heres nothing in there that interests me apart from the fact theres a few RRers in there.
People seem to like it tho as its winning the RR awards vote!

I pretty much bought this months as it featured the rat look for cool grown up dudes very well.  not sure if'd picked something else otherwise. PC is winking at me as usual, and I have left team blitz on the shelf in classic ford  buy this copy from smiths then decide IMO.  worse mags you could wazz the £ on.  |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts |

bought it since issue 1 still a good mag even if it gets a little 'top gear' at times...
Still the only mag that looks at budget home brew engineering and the realities of car tuning as apposed to the style over substance big budget show cars that don't even get driven which are the standard fodder of most tuning mags...
its the only mag i buy that isn't a classic car one..

The Internet, like all tools, if used improperly, can make a complete bo**cks of even the simplest jobs...

I haven't been dissappointed with an issue for a long while - yes content can be varied but it's a pretty broad church they are trying to cater for

I agree with BC on this one, its a varied mag that can't always be jam packed with retro each month. But TBH it all a good read.
Plus the Rat Look feature in this months mag is full of RR regulars! Top work ;D

I've had 2 flyers come in the post this week from PPC.I do still enjoy reading it,but i don't know if the novelty has worn off or what but i don't get that excited(steady) over it now.Are there no retro cars style mags in the pipeline as there must be a market for it.

I still subscribe and still await it turning up, still much more what I'm interested in than PC. But to be honest if you want a good read every month then just go to WH smiths and buy what seems the best mix for you And it is about time we got a pure retro mag again, with retro cool from around the world. Actually a feature every month on wots going on in the main scenes around the world would be good, like a collection of what mags in other countries are featuring. Could do a 2 page spread for Japan/Germany/USA/Aussy Land/New Zeland/Sweden, I'd find that really really interesting. Then you could chose a different country for each month and feature a great car from there, plus a couple of home grown retro's. Actually you could even do a scene special every couple of months, sort of how they do it, followed by the UK interpritation. I think I may have just invented the greatest Retro mag ever, and it shall be called "Retro World". Christ you could even appeal to the lifestyle types by including stuff on retro fashion/tv/life etc. Now will someone go write it please and give me 5% of proffits for the idea?! |

I've bought the last 5 or 6 issues and love it.
To be honest its the only mag I make a point of buying as soon as it comes out, any other mags are as and when.
Just had a subscription for chrimbo too..... hoorah!

I have bought every ppc since issue 2. it's pretty good, very informative, but i feel it's lacks action.
Drags races? pah change em for some trackday pics. When dale lomas left for PB it was sad he could really drive and write well about it afterwards.
But apart from that its perfect.

I have to say, I did enjoy going to the Ratlook shoot as well - it was just a shame they all weren't there with their cars  |

Could someone ask Will if the R-R rat article could be posted to a website? I can't get PPC. Heck, I haven't even read the CF article about TB yet. Brit mags seem rarer than a man in Rosie these days.

Hopefully, Will might permit the R-R rat article to be posted up somewhere for the PPC-deprived. I'd like to read some more about fellow R-Rers. Exciting. Minty. |
