Mark, genuine bit of feedback from me here, so don't take this the wrong way..
From speaking to a few people, it's getting a bit boring in terms of cover cars and/or big features. Almost every issue has the words "Constella built/Ecosse built/K-Tec built" etc, but knowing some of the amazing homegrown projects out there I feel like the only way to get recognition is to spend big bucks at one of the major "tuning" companies.
Look at Darren's black phase 1. It went balls out with a compound charged XUD, followed by the mTDi build, and was MILES more interesting than someone with no imagination spending £10k on a 106 at Ecosse. Projects like that never seem to get a mention though, yet every issue comes across as a huge advert for whichever company is flavour of the month...
