A True Magazine for Car Enthusiasts

Advantages: Photography, Well Written, Accurate
Disadvantages: Reviews Somtimes a bit Similar

Car magazine is one of the UK's most respectable 'car' magazines. The magazine follows a similar if not identical format to all the other car and bike magazines on sale, but Car magazine excels in its photography. The front cover of the magazine is always eye catching and inside the editors always seem to try to use their own pictures rather than those supplied by manufactures. The magazine is very well written although its fair to say some of the ...
...found in Top Gear magazine. Car is a more serious consumer magazine and has won many awards for it's in depth features and news stories. As with all monthly publications it suffers from being behind on the breaking news stories that you'll find in weekly magazines such as Autocar, but the news content is always detailed, accurate and often takes a different approach to other publications. Car is very much a sports car orientated magazine, and although ...

Quality of photography

Probably the best car magazine around

Advantages: Professional in every way
Disadvantages: Price?

I find CAR magazine to be one of the most professional publications out there. With years of experience behind them and writers with plenty of knowledge in their area. For example Gordon Murray from Formula One car Design fame! All of the articles cover the whole subject; there is generally no bias towards any type of vehicle that is reviewed, which I feel is vey important. The only time you will find bias is when the vehicle is exceptional. Take ...
...then new Nissan Skyline R34. CAR magazine described it as the best all-round supercar in the world. The photography in the magazine is always very professional and atmospheric to give a perfect view of the car. Basically CAR magazine is, in my opinion, the best car magazine out there with the best reviews of every-day cars and out of the ordinary cars. ...

Vroom, Vrooom,

Advantages: V. Good Photography
Disadvantages: Naff reviews and news

Car was once the most established, and respected, of the motoring mags. Unfortunately, it has gone downhill. While the photography and general design of the mag. is excellent - there doesn't seem to be anything worth reading in it anymore. It has some quite good columnists, and some nice cover storys - but the reviews are all the same, and the news section doesn't compare to AutoExpress or most other mags. You also feel a bit cheated when you pay ...

A real car mag for Real car enthusiasts

Advantages: Quality content, mature reviews, excellent photography
Disadvantages: Not much

Car magazine is without doubt one of the best on sale.The layout is good, the articles usually unbiased,well written and informative,and the photography is nothing short of exceptional. On the whole the articles are really well written in a mature, well rounded fashion,and they always guarantee a good read.If you want to know what I mean by mature, just check out Revs or Max Power, and you'll know just what I mean. There is a good mix of road tests,motorsport,and ...
...£3.50, but my last copy had 210 pages, surely good value for money. Granted there are quite a lot of adverts,but these in themselves make good reading. There aren't many better mags for real car enthusuasts, and I can't think of a better way to spend £3.50. Excellent mag! ...

A breath of fresh air

Advantages: In-depth analyses, photography, amount of content
Disadvantages: Cost?

...was a bit of a car nut and regularly bought a selection of the monthly car magazines that were on sale. However, I had not bought Car magazine for about five years until recently. I was genuinely impressed. In a genre which has become increasingly 'trashy', here was a magazine with intelligently written and beautifully photographed articles. I felt that, although it costs over three pounds, this was genuinely worth the money. The news section is ...
...the car actuqlly looks like. The articles are engrossing, in-depth and well-written, I even find myself re-reading parts of the magazine. In contrast to other monthly car magazines this one doesn't get tossed aside after a day or two: there is a lot of material in here, not just adverts. ...

Reviews which might be of interest for "Car Magazine"

One car magazine too many.

Advantages: Lots of colour. Smells great!
Disadvantages: Facts incorrect. Biased tests. Messy layout. Overuse of colour.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a car enthusiast pure and simple, choice is good, more the better, but this magazine perfectly reflects the state of the current motor industry...... .....Too many cars made, too few buyers to snap them up...... ......Too many magazines on the shelf, not enough market for them. Having read just about all the car mags over the last 30 years, I suppose I am hard to please, in this day and age one tends to expect greatness straight out of the blocks. I purchased issue 1 in November 2004, it was on "Special Introductory Offer" at £1.85. A bargain indeed, my weekly Autocar magazine is now £2.20. The regular monthly price is now £3.70 However never judge a book by its cover, a car magazine needs to be factual and accurate, after all most data is easy enough to check with manufacturers sites ...

Britains best selling car mag

Disadvantages: none found

If like me you are a petrol head this is the weekly car magazine you want,I subscribed to auto-express about two years ago and still look forward to it being delivered through my letter box every wednesday the 13 issue subscription cost me £12.48 plus i got the first 6 trial issues free which works out at 65p per magazine saving me £1.15 per issue as it costs £1.80 per issue if you brought it off the shelf from a news agents.Plus at the moment if you subscribe you recieve a free AA route planner worth £9.99 so a real bargain at the moment.

Review of Auto Express

The Definitive Car Magazine

Advantages: well laid out, full of stats, takes years to read it all!
Disadvantages: Puts you off buying that hot hatch when you see the MPG

What Car? is an epic Bible of a car magazine, full of every possible stat you could think of on every single car for sale in the UK. It was the 1st motoring magazine to include the specs for each and every car and soon all the competition followed suit, but What Car? Also has many other strengths over the competition. Like most magazines What Car? starts of with short blips of news which would include items such as Safety breakthroughs and new cars currently that have previously been unseen. The magazine then gets its feet wet getting stuck into car reviews, and the magazine usually does this by road testing 3/4 similar cars i.e., Small Executives, and picks out the one it would recommend. In the tests all there is all the data you would expect from the cubic feet of space in the boot to the Miles Per Gallon of the car ...
