The latest one has just dropped on the map as I have it on sub. Fantastic cover (Sub copies have "collectors covers") with 917 & 356, mag is good has good article on 944 T, 944 S2 & 968 in it plus an article on Autofarms Cayman RS. Unfortunately have work to do :evil:

so only a quick flick through.

Yup I'm beginning to think a Boxster with one of those could satisfy my Cayman fetish!

The better of the Pork mags IMHO. GT Purely Porsche is OK but tends to ignore the stuff I'm interested in in other words 944's & their ilk.
The other one purely concentrates on squashed Beetles :mrgreen:

I got the impression it was a more informative read before the current editor took over, but I agree it's still the better mag.

Enjoyed the article on the 944/968s, but it's difficult to tell whether they just had a ropey example of a 968 or whether the S2 engine really is inherently superior! I suspect the former, and interested to note that both were on sale at Specialist Cars' customarily hopeful prices!

The mag still hasnt arrived in my local shops. I guess the snow has slowed the postman (even more than usual anyway)

The previous Editor Chris Horton is still involved as Consultant Editor. I'm sure both Chris and Steve Bennet will be at Gaydon, pop along tp their stand and give them some feedback.

Has anyone seen this month’s edition of Excellence, the American Porsche mag? They’ve got a feature article comparing a late-model 944T against a 928S4. Being American, they end up siding with the V8 engine, but admit that the ’44 is a hugely superior drive.

Keep debating putting Excellence on sub. Fantastic mag, the only time I get a copy is when in foreign airport.
