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.
The magazine has competition from the likes of Top Gear and Autocar, but in my view for the serious car enthusiast this magazine is in a class of its own and it presents the information clearly and interestingly and has a good mix of content from buying to selling, from Baby seats to Car importing. If you're a car enthusiast and haven't read this magazine you should be ashamed of yourself!

This is quite a good opinion, but I'd like to respond to your accusations of me being a "fraud". I clearly stated at the beginning of my preview of 'Amnesiac' by Radiohead that I could only report on what I have heard. Not once did I hint that I have heard the record yet. Obviously you're entitled to your opinion and rating but it all seems a bit childish to me.
