A one off purchase from the magazine editor. Subscribers should be recieving these 10 days before they hit the news agents, thats what I was told at the time.

If that was the case it wouldn't have taken much to put a msg up on one or two car forums and the web would have done the rest with getting the msg out there.
The big code of silence with what has been going on after taking peoples money is just so suss and one reason why I will never suscribe.

HatchmanSS76 is absolutely right :spoton:

Even if the head man was very ill then I am sure there would have been a 2 IC to take over the reigns and if not the case then a simple explanatiion on a few websites would have let people know the reason for the delay.

It is called "common courtesy and good business sense"

Anytime that I have had to cancel, not been able to turn up or could not do something I had arranged to do, I have let the person/people know what was going on.

I have however on the rare occassion "forgot" but that was purely un-intentional and definitely a part of my memory loss which unfortunately gets me in the poo with the missus :blink:

Communications in business is essential just as it is in marriage :spoton:

I was looking through this magazine today with a mate and we noticed a couple of things. On page 15 they make note of the hatch being a 4.2 litre and the 6 cylinder engine under it they seemed to miss the fact that 6 cylinder is sitting on a HX chassis. On page 13 I could be wrong, but the forth car looks to be ultra blue? That could well be an A9X and it does appear to have something extra written on the window. Back further is a hatch with no chrome trim or stripes and black door handles....

i think the 253 sitting by its self in front of the ss is ment fot the it. i cant see a 6cyl and 3 speed going into a 253 ss. great pics but
