Would be good if every month they had a feature on all the different common french car engines, e.g1.1/1.4/VTS/VTR/GTI-6/XUD/HDI etc etc from the original spec, what are the common upgrades, approximately what power the internals are good for, it doesnt have to be 100% factual but even now people are still pushing these engines 10 years after production so a little write up on each would be a decent read imo, maybe a interview with a owner of each engine thats been pushed/uprated, why they chose that engine, what obstacles they had to overcome.
However i doubt a lot of folk would want to share the secrets of their home brews, and most features in the mag like you said ruan, cars been sent to garage to have done so the owner cant really tell you anything.
But overall mags not TOO bad imo but it doesn't really inspire me in the same way as reading folks threads on here. Remember they need to make the 'OMG SAXO TURBO WOWOWOW' teenager types part with their pocket money so glossy posters and picture porn are more important than in-depth spec, which they wont know anyway
